Kathmandu. Good looks, light, glossy texture, 50 megapixel main camera and budget phone. These features are of Infinix Hot 40i. The starting price of this phone in Nepali market is 14 thousand 999 rupees.
Today, inspired by the looks of the iPhone, other mobile companies are increasing the size of the camera. As a result, a large-sized dual camera setup can be seen in this phone and there is also a flash on the side.
The back panel of the phone is made of Matterhard plastic. Due to this, finger marks do not remain when the phone is held in the hand. Based on that, its body quality can be considered good. Similarly, the right side of the phone has a volume controller button and a power button with a finger print sensor.
Like most Android phones, there is a SIM card slot on the left side, where two Nano SIMs and an SD card are placed. Similarly, on the bottom of the phone, you can find a 3.5 mm jack port, a Type-C port and a speaker.
Talking about the display, it has a 6.56-inch 90 Hz IPS LCD display. Since it is a budget phone, there is no complaint even though it has an IPS display. The phone has a maximum brightness of 480 nits. This brightness is sufficient in the room. But in a place where there is direct sunlight, you have to work hard to see the screen.
A punch hole display with a selfie camera can be found on the phone. A little less curved edge can be seen at the top and sides of the phone and a little more at the bottom. But watching normal videos or using social networking apps is not much of a problem.
The magic ring is one of the main parts on the display. This feature is turned on by default in the phone. Like the dynamic island in the latest version of the iPhone, it can be seen that the background call, charging animation reminder and low battery reminder magic ring are enabled on the top of the phone.
Now let's talk about the camera. The main camera of the phone is 50 megapixels and the selfie camera is 32 megapixels. The photos taken by its main camera look good. The camera takes pictures by balancing the colors. But if you zoom in on the photos taken, the photos are slightly torn. The camera can be zoomed up to 10 times. But the zoomed photos and videos are not of such quality.
The other lens on the back of the phone works only as a 'depth sensor', so that its effect is seen properly in portrait photos. In photo mode, you can take photos by using different filters, turning HDR on/off. Similarly, the camera has short video, video, photo, beauty, portrait, super night and other modes.
Beauty mode also has features like AI smart beauty effect, smoothing, skin color, slim face. Similarly, if you go to other options, you can get Pro, Panorama, Documents, Timelapse, AR Shot, etc. modes. From AR Shot, you can take photos/videos by choosing fun filters like Snapchat. Likewise, after turning on the camera, a scan icon can be seen at the bottom, it redirects to Google Lens.
In terms of video, the phone is not that good. It can shoot videos up to 1080 pixels at 30 fps. But those videos are very shaky. However, we certainly cannot expect quality video in a phone worth Rs 15,000.
Now let's talk about the phone's operating system. The phone is based on Android 13 and runs on XOS 13 UI. A mid-level processor Unisec T606 has been used in it. It is a 12 nm chipset released in the middle of 2021. Although a little old, this processor can be considered sufficient for running common social networking apps, playing games and general tasks for a budget phone.
What you can like about the phone is its user interface (UI). It has an edge panel. With this, you can get quick access to various apps and features. Similarly, if you want to see the notifications, you have to scroll down from the top left of the mobile. You have to scroll down from the right side to control the features like screen brightness, bluetooth, flashlight, sound etc. It feels a little different from other Android phones.
The phone also supports multitasking. For this, the screen can be slid. But this can be done only in some apps. Namely, Facebook, YouTube, Google Chrome etc. Limited options for personalization on the phone are given in themes and wallpapers. The phone also has a game mode, which can be turned on for a better gaming experience.
Talking about the storage, the phone is available in three storage variants. Its price is also different according to the variant of the phone. For example: 14,999 rupees for 4 GB RAM and 128 GB internal storage, 17,999 rupees for 8 GB RAM and 128 GB internal storage and 19,999 rupees for 8 GB RAM and 256 GB internal storage. Also, as much RAM as there is in each phone, the same amount of virtual RAM is also available. Due to the expandable virtual RAM, the phone can handle heavy software and games as well.
To do all these things, you can get a 5000 mAh battery in the phone. Therefore, if you use the phone normally, it does not matter if you charge it every day. The downside is that the phone only has an 18-watt charger. That's why it takes about 2 hours and 15 minutes to fully charge the phone. In today's busy times, many people may not have more than two hours to charge their phones. In that case, you can charge the battery up to 60 percent in an hour.
For connectivity, the phone also supports Bluetooth 5.0 and dual-band Wi-Fi. For security, you can get fingerprint sensor, face lock, PIN, password etc. in the phone. The phone is available in four colors namely Starlit Black Color, Horizon Gold, Plum Blue and Starfall Green. Fortunately, the company has also provided a 15-month warranty on the phone.
Infinix Hot 40i can be a good choice especially for those who want to buy a phone with good storage, battery and camera at a cheap price.
