The Infinix Smart 5 was launched recently in the sub-Rs. 8,000 price segment as the newest addition to the Smart series. When I unboxed this smartphone, I was surprised to see how big it is, thanks to the bigger-than-usual battery capacity, considering its price. The Smart 5 has some decent specifications on paper, and an attractive starting price of just Rs. 7,199. Does that make it the best pick for those on a very tight budget? I put the Infinix Smart 5 to the test to find out. 1z6340
The Smart 5 is a budget offering from Infinix with a big 6.82-inch HD+ display with a dewdrop notch. It also has a selfie flash that is common on Infinix smartphones at the front. The Smart 5 is heavy and has a 207g because of its big 6,000mAh battery. It has a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner that’s slightly higher than ideal.
It is powered by the MediaTek Helio G25 octa-core processor paired with 2GB of RAM and 32GB of storage. The performance might disappoint heavy s while casual s should not face any issues with the device performance. The phone runs Android 10 with Infinix's custom XOS 7 UI on top.
You get a dual camera setup with a 13-megapixel primary camera and a depth sensor. Photo quality is strictly average for the price. Lowlight camera performance lacked sharpness and colour accuracy. Overall, the Smart 5 is for those with casual usage and a strict budget.
