Looking for an S3 anyone? No not the Samsung Galaxy S3 but the Infinix Hot S3. The smartphone’s one of Infinix’s best sons with loads of goodies packed within an affordable price of around Rs. 30,000. Let’s delve into what’s this beast has on offer in a little more detail shall we?
The Infinix Hot S3 follows the norms of 2018 in many aspects; the first of which is that the smartphone features a bezel-less front panel with a display that almost stretches from the very top of the front panel to its very bottom. The back panel features premium-feeling metal with the primary camera somewhat mimicking an iPhone X-like configuration.
Its dimensions include an 8.5mm width and a 150g weight. Could’ve been better for a smartphone that’s considered to be Infinix’s top-dog.
Finally, it’s time for the bezel-less front display panel; the Hot S3 features a large 5.65 inches IPS LCD capacitive touchscreen with 267ppi pixel density. Equating to an okay-ish 720p resolution, we’re not really sure how’s it gonna fare with the large display. However, let’s be optimistic here.
The smartphone features a standard 13 MP primary sensor while the secondary sensor…. *rolling drums* features a large 20 MP sensor. That effectively makes the smartphone a selfie-phone.
Hardware wise, the Android Oreo is powered by a nifty combination of 3 gigs of RAM and a 1.4 GHz octa-core processor. That ultimately results in very less to no lag at all. 32GB of internal storage is good news while a 4000 mAh battery, rear-mounted fingerprint scanner and an external card-slot are its other notable mentions.
The large 4000 mAh battery promises two days of good usage but unfortunately, you don’t get fast charging technology here. That means, you won’t get to charge it quickly if you need it for a quick spin.
