Infinix Zero 8 'Black Diamond' unboxing and review


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vkdT7PSgJe4

Over 16 months after the release of its predecessor - Infinix Zero 6, Infinix decided to skip the Zero 7 and take a giant leap in the spec sheet department rather than just an incremental upgrade. The Infinix Zero 8 packs a super fast, tested and trusted gaming chip - Mediatek Helio G90T, paired with 8GB RAM. Asides the CPU, Infinix used a 90hz refresh rate which makes for a smoother user experience altogether.

I think the image processing of of that 64MP back camera looks a lot like GCAM output and the super night mode is really impressive for any midrange phone on the market. The 48MP front facing camera also shoots videos in 4K and packs a ton of features usually reserved for primary cameras. However, most of them are gimmicky.

Not having dual stereo speakers is a bit of a let down considering the Infinix Note 7 spots those.
The only thing I didn't quite cover extensively is the battery life and it will be interesting to see long the battery lasts on 90hz compared to 60hz display setting. I did however test that 33watt fast charging while editing this video and it is faster than I predicted.

Price - N116,900

See screenshots from the video below + a few shots from the camera.
Phone companies just sell a digital camera with phone call abilities.. Its always about camera camera camera.. Can you silly phone companies make phones for audiophiles? Abi we no be humans? Lol honestly I don't care about camera... The most important thing for me after the screen res, chipset, ram and storage is if it supports "HI RES audio"...dobly atmos 5.1, wolfson DAC, stereo speakers and the likes.. It is about Audio fidelity for me... Please don't blame me I'm crazy about audio quality same way y'all crazy about cameras.
PhonesRe: Is OPPO Enco W31 Worth Owning? by SAVAGEBETS: 4:49am On Aug 28, 2020
AnonPoet:
Wireless earphones have been a thing in Nigeria for a while now and have experienced massive growth with smartphone makers jumping on the bandwagon, the market has been bombarded with a sea of options varying across the price range. Among others, OPPO Mobile Nigeria has been known to their users to give beautiful technology.
The Enco W31 wireless earphones were introduced recently and this is to inform you on all you need to know about this dynamic device.

Design and Build quality

The Enco W31 is packed in a small round-shaped charging case with Oppo branding placed right in the middle. Open it, and you will find the earphones sitting in their separate magnetic slots. They come in white and black options that look glossy and feel classy.
The cover case has an USB-Type-C charging slot, which makes it quite easy to charge the earphones and securely keep them while they are charging. The earphones are durable and can sit comfortably in your ears. They have a one-size-fits-all design, which means they fit stably in your ears irrespective of your ear shape. You could carefree walk, run, cycle, exercise or even sleep wearing the earphones without the fear of dropping them.
They have highly intelligent touch control support that allows you to change audio mode with a double tap on the left side, change to the next song with a double tap on the right side and activate voice assistant with a triple-tap on either side. The Enco W31 headphones are designed to resist water and dust at an IP54 rating, whether you are staying in or working out, you can be assured your headphones would be protected.

Sound performance

The Enco W31 offers great noise-cancellation during calls as it has dual-microphone beamforming, an environmental noise cancellation algorithm, and an anti-wind noise chamber. You can be rest assured it allows you to disconnect from the outside noise, even in crowded areas.
It has enhanced bass for a powerful sound that brings out bass-heavy rhythms. It also gives balanced sounds across high, middle, and low frequencies. That is not all, the Enco W31 is AAC audio format supported which provides lifelike audio detail that conveys the full story of every song.

Battery and connectivity

After strong build quality, the battery and connectivity are excellent aspects of Enco W31 wireless headphones. You enjoy up to 15 hours of music playback or 12 hours of call time with the charging case and around 3.5 hours without them in a single charge. When completely drained out, the buds can fuel back up in approximately 2.5 hours - which isn't bad considering the battery backup they provide.
As far as the connectivity is concerned, they can be paired via Bluetooth with both Oppo or non-Oppo smartphones without any hassle. To quick-pair the headphones with your smartphone, just tap the button that pops up on your screen, everytime you open the charging case, the connection will be automatically resumed.
Also, the infrared optical sensors detect whether you are wearing the headphones and play or pause your audio in response, so you don’t need to take out your phone each time.

Conclusion
The Enco W31 wireless headphones retail at N25,900 in white and black colour options in Nigeria.
OPPO has pulled off an amazing headphone and this is why we would highly recommend you to buy Enco W31 if you are looking for wireless headphones for your long gym sessions, workouts or daily music listening experience. They also offer great noise-cancellation and long-lasting battery life for the price, making them an excellent package.
Oga so you finished typing all this horse shiiits and didn't say anything about what kind of codec it uses.. I'm sure it's probably the basic SBC... Lol audiophiles like me won't touch this, throw in aptx HD audio, aptx adaptive audio, LDAC and LHDC then I'll gladly play that amount... Not some basic SBC..

My brother, with all due respect to Oshogbo and Ibadan fans. Those places are killer dreams atm.
You can not prosper,in a state that is hugely dependent on government, and the government is not paying salaries, with huge debt accumulated. Where would monies come from?
Ogun state is a good bet but limited only to those areas close to lagos.
If you are not Yoruba or Hausa , you are omoibo whether you like it or not...
He should stick to my advice and leave all these nonsense cheap cheap noise, that's how they remain poor and backward!
That omoibo part eh, that one na full stop lol
TravelRe: What Is The Best And Cheapest State In Nigeria To Start Up Life? by SAVAGEBETS: 7:35am On Nov 30, 2017
patrick89:
Finally all these noise makers have succeeded in fooling you.
You, wanting to relocate shows that you are ambitious, but relocating from Benin to Oshogbo or Ibadan is a foolish move.
You have a skill that can earn you so much money and you want to trade it with cheap food and cheap accommodation, you will end up as a cheap man!
How many millionaires are domiciled in Oshogbo doing business? How many workers are living large in Oshogbo or Ibadan? These are the things you should look at before making that decision. All these people shouting cheap cheap cheap ,have families and people who have been living their, adopted to the environment.
You will have to spend one or more years, before you acclimatize in those places, you have picked.



What I will advice you are the following. Don't enter into any state that is backward in commerce and industrialization, especially in this recession.
Oshogbo is out of it, as their purchasing power is the lowest atm. This is a civil servant state where government does not pay salaries, it means poor circulation of money. And no money to buy whatever you are selling!
Ibadan is a very laid back city, it is filled with struggling citizens, retired indigenes who do not wish to push further in life, don't go and join them.

Here are my best pick for you...
1. Lagos, it is a cosmopolitan with both rich and poor population. But the good thing is, you can easily get a job with your skill. There is also huge purchasing power there. So move into sub urban areas like alagbado, makoko, you can even go to shagamu,and those close areas in Ogun state, there are constructions going on there on a daily basis.
2. Port Harcourt. See you can not write this place off, because of the unlimited opportunities there, especially from oil companies who would be seeking for your skills. You are from Benin, which has similar political system with PH. So you can adopt easily. Who knows, you may land yourself a very lucrative job.
3. Aba. Based on your skills, Aba stands out in this, provided you have a skill, you can never be jobless. You would be shocked to know the number of non indigenes that are working there. Your skills can stand you out, and put so much money in your pocket.
4. Kaduna/ kano . I put them together because they have similar economy, but kano has more industries and commerce. These two cities can give you what you want, but I'm afraid, since you don't want north,it may turn out very bad.
5. You can try the neighbouring Asaba, it is a booming place with a lot of construction ongoing there. Your skills would be highly needed...

My last advice....
Never you leave Benin (oil producing city, with higher commercial and cash flow) to Oshogbo or Ibadan or any of those laid back cities. We are technically in recession and their purchasing power is very low. But what do I know you can go and try.
exactly, when I saw his skill I just knew he was making a terrible mistake hence the second post to him, I wasn't so sure of ogun cos most of the industries there are food and beverages.

what do you do? What's your expertise, don't just relocate to a state where you'd be redundant but if you want cheap like very cheap you either go to offa, kwara, oshogbo, osun, maikunkele,niger state and 50naira keke to minna, you'll get a good single room for 25 to 35k then use about 50k to start any business even if it's frying akara. The beautiful thing about relocating is that it gives yoh a fresh start so no shame of embarrassment, fry the akara and rake in the profit or spend the remaining money and be broke in a strange land.

and I've got sufficient paper qualifications and I am a professional welder.. ( electrode and argon welding)..
thanks for your suggestions.. they have really been helpful
in that case I'd say you should go to where you're skills will be, places with lots of fabrication industries where your chances of getting hired is higher, what you should be looking for is states with a high metal work demand, few come to mind, Anambara, I think Ogun, Kogi(ajakuta) kano, can't remember the name of the area where lots of fuel tankers and water tanks are made, such states is what you should be looking for.I'd have said straight up South South but it's saturated, there's a lot of opportunities and demand for your skills in the East from imo to enugu cos they do a lot of metal work in such states, I didn't include Lagos cos everything happens there lol.

Luxuryconsult:
ibadan or akure is your best bet in South west.. Things are so relatively cheap in ibadan. You'd get single room self con around apete area (though a rural place but very populous cuz it's closer to the polytechnic, Ibadan) around 60k upward, you can also get around 70k upward around eleyele axis, eleyele is better than apete in so many ways and there are three tetiary institutions situated in that area, electricity is very good. And if you can afford something 150k, you'd get a tiled single room self con in old bodija (an estate) or challenge and so forth.. Some part of ibadan are very peaceful, once you don't stay around all those ghetto areas like, bere, mopol and all the so called ibadan central cities.. Food is cheap, transport too. But getting a good paid job in ib can be so frustrating, so it would so much be in your favour if you are self made and get a shop/office in some selected parts of ibadan. Don't forget ibadan is a very big city, the biggest in west africa i believe so there are lots of places you can surely stay. Those places i mentioned to you are places i'm so familiar with. And things are not as cheap in akure as ibadan though but still cheap to some extent.. Transportation is kinda expensve in ondo state generally than most other south west states. And food is still kinda expensive too but ondo state i believe is still the most peaceful state in south west presently and akure is beautiful to some extent. But even though it is a state capital, it is still somehow scanty unlike few other state capitals. But you'd surely get cheaper accomodations in places like oke aro, oba ile and few other places and if you have a degree that can be considered for a teaching job, then you'd probably get to earn about 15k - 25k or more monthly depending on the kinda school you get. This teaching job applies to ibadan also. And if you don't care much about all those online report about osogbo then it's a city you can give a trial too. You'd get accomodation for 60k i mean single room self con but i don't know much about their jobs.
Emm, as much as I appreciate the effort you put into this response about ibadan I must say virtually everything here is a false. I lived in ibadan from 2015 till I relocated December 28 2016, my friend did same too, I'll make this as short as possible.

I have lived almost everywhere in this country and for the Op let me say this Ibadan it's not cheap, at least not a place to start up life. You want a cheap place to start up life? pick any state in the the middle belt or North central. I lived at Omolayo Estate Akobo and during my time there I found the following.
#Ibadan is big yes.
#Transportation in Ibadan is not cheap, example I went from akobo to palms shopping mall to get something which I still didn't find and back home and that cost me 800 Naira to and fro. My cousin lives at Akingbile and going to visit him gulps about 1k. Ibadan lacks good road network do a journey that should take 15mins takes 45.
#There's no light generally in ibadan, if you want to enjoy light make sure you rent a house in an area where at least 80% of the inhabitants use prepaid meter example from general gas down to ojurin and here's why, Nepa sends light to such places cos if they don't people won't exhaust their units and reload and they need them to so we almost always had light at akobo and if we didn't then we know there's really no light in ibadan.
Now Op I hope you're Yoruba and if you're not I hope yoh can speak it fluently if not please forget yorubaland if it's not Lagos, yah y'all can have my head for that but I'll say it, they can discriminate for Africa and they'll rub it at your face while at it, to an average Yoruba man only three tribes exists, if you're not Yoruba you better be Hausa and if you're not then forget it "omo Igbo ni yen" and most of em just don't like an igbo person, once you're classified igbo threat level goes up, but the exposed and well travelled ones are very good to deal and work with. Not being able to speak the language fluently automatically drops your chances and position in the pecking order even if you're the most qualified in a formal environment.

Accommodation is not cheap if you want a sane environment with light, there's no such thing as a room self contain outside school area, and crime rate is high in the school area, your house can be burgled between yoh going to church and getting back in the afternoon and same goes for other areas too cos there people run when there's a security threat for fear of reprisals unlike the South or east where they mobilise and apprehend. Also what they call self contain is you having your own room with a personal toiletif you get the masters bedroom in a flat or a shared toilet, such will set you back minimum 130k to 170k.

I'm currently in Minna 17th state for almost a year and I can tell you it's your best bet if you're starting out, you can scout for jobs in Abuja and kaduna from here. Here I rented a standard room and parlour self contain apartment in a fenced secure compound with water in town for 80k tho the other two tenants who joined paid 100k do landlord had reviewed his price I guess, it's peaceful here, I work online so I can live anywhere I want. No religious crises here, it's the most peaceful of the North central state. It can be boring cos it's not crowded and hot tho.
dazall. Worthy mention are Yola, Benin, Ilorin,Makurdi,Jalingo, jos and generally middle belt and North central states.
