The Infinix Hot 10i was launched and made available on May 20th, 2021. The device runs on the Android 11, XOS 7.5 operating system and a Mediatek MT6769V Helio G70 (12 nm) chipset. The other variant of the Infinix Hot 10i also runs on Android 11 but with an improved interface. However, the initial device, the Infinix Hot 10, runs on Android 10.

Unfortunately, the features of the Infinix Hot 10i have been downgraded, featuring only a dual camera instead of the usual triple or quadruple camera. The camera has a 13MP capacity and a selfie camera of just 5MP. Considering these features, the device should be named with the prefix “C” for “compromised” instead of “I.”

On a brighter note, the device has a non-removable Li-Po 6000 mAh battery with a solid battery life that prolongs mobile time. This device enables fast charging with an 18W wired USB cord, which was missing from the other variants in its series.

Infinix Hot 10i Specifications

Features to look out for:

Body

The Infinix Hot 10i comes in Black, Purple, Morandi Green, and Heart of Ocean. These colors enrich the smart look of this device. It has a body size of 6.52 inches, 102.6 cm², which is a trend common among smartphones that feature large screens. This translates to a lightweight and handy device that doesn’t require a wide palm stretch.

It is built with a Glass front, plastic back, and plastic frame. Plastic materials are susceptible to scratches. The device lacks the usual Corning Gorilla Glass protection, which protects the device from scratches and accidental falls. However, many phone cases online can improve the look of your device and protect it from scratches.

SIM

The device is a Dual SIM (Nano-SIM, dual stand-by) with two SIMs, one being a Nano sim and the other a dual stand-by type. It is also a 4G LITE enabled device, making the SIM follow suit in that path.

Display

It has an IPS LCD, 500 nits (peak) display type that supports a resolution of about 720 x 1600 pixels, 20:9 ratio (~269 ppi density). The display type has a brightening effect at 500 nits peak, creating a balanced effect under direct sunlight and at nighttime. The large screen type, featuring a body size of 6.52 inches, 102.6 cm², is a selling point for this device.

The internal memory is supported by a port for slotting an external storage card to augment the memory space.

Camera

The device has a basic dual camera with a specification of 13 MP, f/1.8, (wide), AF, and QVGA. While one of these cameras has a capacity of 13MP for image production, the other with the QVGA capability enables shooting under low light sensors. However, the capacity of 8MP is missing, which could have improved the camera quality. The device also has a Quad-LED flash, panorama, and HDR, which brightens the surrounding light and elevates the quality at nighttime.

The main selfie camera has only a 5MP capacity but enables a Dual-LED flash. The video capacity for the selfie camera is unknown at this point of writing, but a common trend is to see devices with the same video specification as the main camera. The video capacity of the rear camera is 1440p@30fps, and it is likely to be the same for the selfie camera.
