The Infinix Note 60i is a sort of refreshing smartphone in today’s flood of overpriced flagships and also underwhelming budget devices out in the smartphone market. Not just any cheap premium pretender, it is a crafted device that tells you how budget smartphones should cater to the real world everyday users and does it well.
First thoughts on premium design at budget level
And the moment you open up the box for the Note 60i its clear whats understood in its design. It has a premium feel with ultra slim profile of just 8.3mm but the glossy back panel featuring subtle gradient appears asking for touch of touch thats quite literally a steal considering it’s price tag.
All there is to see front with minimal bezels is the big 6.6 inch display which offers a near perfect screen-to-body ratio in this segment.
Contraption: Power button/ fingerprint scanner down pat, located right where your thumb should sit. The SIM tray is another bit of a thought they put here – it takes two nano-SIMs and the MicroSD card, very few budget devices do that. TPU included in the box as well shows us how Infinix understands that a budget phone buyer is another person.
Display Action: Mega bright, big and where it counts
And the budget user care most from our 6.6 inch HD+ IPS LCD display that handles
- 90Hz refresh Rate for fluid scrolling
- peak brightness of 500 nits for extended outdoor usability
- 19M tinted liquid-crystal angled display technology (20:9 aspect ratio to consume content)
Eye-care mode: effective blue light reduction
What makes this display unique, isn’t the specifications (theyre all standard in the segment) but calibration by Infinix’ unsung effort. The colors look real and do not so oversaturated, auto-brightness adjustment in real time is working good with changing lighting.
