The phone’s display is an HD IPS panel giving it a typical 267ppi pixel density. It’s got wide viewing angles and over saturated colors even though it’s not an OLED panel. A 5MP front-facing camera is located on top of the display and a trio of capacitive buttons below.

The right-hand side has the volume rocker and the power/lock button that’s positioned a bit lower for easy reach. The left is left bare with no ports or buttons.

The rear panel of the handset is removable giving access to the SIM card and microSD card slots. We also have the 13MP rear camera with a single LED flash, the circular fingerprint scanner, and the loudspeaker at the back. The back cover comes in various colors with a 3D texture depending on the variant.

The Infinix Hot 4 Pro has 4G LTE and a 4000mAh battery which could easily last for two days or longer depending on your usage. It’s running Android 6.0 Marshmallow out of the box skinned with XOS.

Yugatech has been my go-to site for everything tech but these ads are annoying, especially when using mobile.
