Infinix Hot S3X Review


Hong Kong-based Transsion Holdings' Infinix brand has unveiled yet another smartphone in its Hot series in India, the Hot S3X. The phone, which has been launched just eight months after its predecessor the Hot S3, brings with it minor upgrades such as a larger display with a notch, dual rear cameras, and an improved selfie camera.
With a slight price hike to Rs. 9,999, can the Infinix Hot S3X₹ 9,999 be a worthy upgrade to the Infinix Hot S3, which impressed us during our review period? We find out.
Infinix Hot S3X design
A departure from the previous generation's matte finish, the Infinix Hot S3X sports a glossy gradient back panel with a slight mirror finish. It doesn't look as plain as before, and the curved sides provide a good grip. We got the Ice Blue colour for review, and this phone is also available in Black and Grey options, both of which also have a similar gradient design. The finish is prone to fingerprints and smudges, but Infinix has you covered with a bundled soft TPU case in the box.
The phone sports a large 6.2-inch HD+ display panel with a resolution of 720x1500 pixels and a rather odd aspect ratio of 18.75:9. The top border has been replaced by an iPhone X₹ 74,999-like notch, but the chin remains quite large. All corners of the screen are hard to reach with one finger, and this phone is not made for one-handed usage.
There are onscreen navigation buttons in place of capacitive or physical keys, below the display. The 16-megapixel selfie camera, dual LED flash, and earpiece are placed within the notch.
