With prices of commodities skyrocketing, we are driven to become more practical with our purchases. We’re always on the lookout for crazy deals — spend less, get more. If you’re a gaming enthusiast scouting for an all-around smartphone that highlights gaming and will give you more than your money’s worth, the Infinix Note 12 might just be the one you’re looking for. But what exactly does it offer? Read more to find out.
Design and Build
Appealing to the eyes is the rear of the Note 12 that features a textured wave-like design. It also has a matte surface, which makes it less prone to fingerprint marks and smudges. Colorways include Force Black, Sapphire Blue and Snowfall.
Its overall build feels and looks premium, all while maintaining a lightweight and slim frame. It measures 185g and 7.89mm thin with a boxy design, making it easy to grip.
What comes with the smartphone are the Type-C USB cable, 33W Fast Charger, protective case, SIM ejector tool, user manual and product warranty guide.
Display
For a budget phone, you’ll be surprised that it’s equipped with a 6.7” FHD+ AMOLED display. Mobile gamers and Netflix series bingers will surely appreciate its vibrant and immersive visuals brought about by its display capabilities.
Camera
Since we Filipinos are very sentimental, this smartphone’s 50MP camera will allow us to capture quality photos — shots may still be clear even in low-light conditions. And for content creation purposes, the 16MP selfie camera will come in handy. You can also unleash your creative side and take landscape or portrait shots using the ultra-wide angle and depth lenses, respectively.
Performance
If you’re a gamer, the number one thing you’ll inspect is the processor and other internals, since these greatly influence how seamless and responsive your gameplay will be. With the Note 12 powered by Helio G96 ultra gaming processor, you can expect it to be a competent partner to be at the top of your game. Not to mention, it runs on 8GB RAM + 5GB extended RAM, which can significantly improve responsiveness when you switch to different apps or even play sophisticated games. Lastly, its capacity of 128GB can accommodate all the apps you wish to download as well as photos and videos you wish to store.
Battery
You can maximize the use of your phone with its 5000mAh battery life. This allows you to fulfil your tasks throughout the day and still be able to enjoy hours of playtime to de-stress. Even if you consumed all the juice, charging time will be relatively short with the boost from the 33W Fast Charger.
Verdict
Tagged as a gaming smartphone, it’s expected to provide users with smooth and responsive gaming through its highly capable processor. It doesn’t fall short in other aspects either — AMOLED display, expansive RAM technology, long battery life, among others. What makes this even sweeter is its highly accessible price point of P8,999 for 128GB, while the 256GB is priced at P9,999. Everything considered, the Note 12 will definitely shine in the selections of budget gaming smartphones.
