It runs on Android 7.1 Nougat OS with Google Play Store pre-installed and powered by an Octa-core MediaTek MT6750 processor that clocks at 1.5GHz coupled with 3GB RAM and 32GB ROM expandable up to 256GB via microSD card slot.

On the other hand, this phone is priced at $229 (Ksh 9999). Unlike other devices from the same brand, this one does not come with a bezel-less design. Instead, it has thicker bezels than what we're used to seeing nowadays. However, when we look past that aspect, this phone looks good especially for people who prefer big screens. So far we have not seen any deals or discounts offered by Infinix so there's no way of telling whether or not it will go on sale anytime soon. We'll keep our eyes peeled for more updates though.

8) Is it worth an upgrade?
The Infinix Note 8 Pro 4G is the latest smartphone from the Chinese company, and it's now available for purchase. The device sports a 6.53-inch display, octa-core processor, 6GB of RAM, and 128GB of storage. It also has a quad-camera setup, a fingerprint sensor, and a large 5,000mAh battery. So, is it worth an upgrade? Let's take a look. First off, this is the first time we're seeing a triple camera on the back of a phone - with two 12MP sensors and one 2MP sensor. You'll also find AI scene recognition which will automatically adjust your settings based on what you're trying to capture. The rear-facing cameras are capable of capturing 1080p video at 30fps or 720p video at 60fps. There's also 5GHz Wi-Fi capability built in for more stable connectivity in areas with poor signal strength (like your house). In terms of performance, this thing flies with its eight CPU cores - so if you like to play games or stream content on your phone, this might be perfect for you. While some reviewers say that the OS doesn't feel as smooth as other devices, others note that after updating to Android 9 Pie, it feels much better. And despite running on Android Pie, there's still no support for Google Pay or Android Auto. So if those features are important to you, consider checking out another phone instead. Overall though, this looks like a solid option for anyone looking for something that can keep up with their active lifestyle and doesn't mind paying a little extra money. Whether you're shopping for a present for someone or just want to treat yourself, this may be the right phone for you.
