Our take on Infinix Hot 12

The Infinix Hot 12 is a fun and fast smartphone at an affordable price. It has a 6.82-inch display with a refresh rate of 90 Hz, a 5,000 mAh battery, dual stereo speakers, and it’s running Android 12 out of the box. The build quality of the Infinix Hot 12 is good, the processor is okay, it has a large 5000 mAh battery that will last the entire day, and it’s running Android 12. On the other hand, if you are okay with the 720p display, even though looks good and has a 90 Hz refresh would put some people off. The display is also not that bright. The cameras can take good pictures in good lighting conditions. But it isn’t going to blow you away. Also, the charging time of more than an hour and 42 minutes is a bit too long for 2022 standards.
