Infinix Zero X and Zero X Pro Review

Highlights

  1. The front screen features a 6.67 inch AMOLED panel that features a 120 Hz refresh rate that matches the smooth experience.
  2. On the other hand, the company also introduces an Helio G95 chipset that brings the fit performance to users.
  3. As for software layering, both models equip the Android 11 operating system with XOS 7.6 interface configuration.
  4. In terms of camera, you’re getting the triple camera with 64MP as the main camera with a 16 MP selfie camera on top.
  5. Peak power through 4500 mAh battery capacity will yield screen time and provide a 45W fast charger inside the box.

Design and Display

The built-in quality of the Infinix Zero X and X Pro smartphones has the same aura, while the sleek design is something that makes the two phones stand out. Plus, the 7.8mm slim form factor gives the phones a decent grip. Also, both variants don’t seem to pack as much weight, although they do offer huge battery capacity under the hood.

Apparently, you can choose the best option from a wide choice of shades. For starters, Zero X is workable in two impressive color options, including Nebula Black and Starry Silver. On the other hand, the Pro variant achieves the additional Tuscany brown color that arrives with a ceramic leather finish. Plus you’ll also get the premium glass back. It also features a fingerprint sensor on the display as usual.

However, you won’t get the protection of corning gorilla glass, even though the phone has a 6.7 inches AMOLED display panel. But hopefully, both smartphones have achieved the 120Hz refresh rate that ensures you can smooth the UI experience, while the screen brightness nits are comparatively high than the average phone, so no problem in watching the screen outdoors.

Memory and Internal

The hardware section might not have anything exciting compared to the screen section. But, power optimization via the MediaTek Helio G95 chipset handles all multitasking and renders an amazing performance experience. Despite this, the chipset works on the 12nm architecture. However, there are some setbacks with this chipset.

First, it lacks a decent GPU processor, although the hardware is marketed as gaming gear. Secondly, the processing speed is a little above average and, finally, it didn’t support 5G connectivity. But, Android 11’s visual effect based on the XOS 7.6 interface gives slight hope that you can customize the ecosystem. Data transport becomes faster thanks to the UFS 2.2 memory type.

You’re getting a built-in gaming center that improves game performance and renders optimal graphics with the adaptive refresh rate needed for the game. In terms of storage support, you’re getting a configuration on Zero X phone is 128GB space with 8GB of RAM. Surprisingly, you’ll get an additional 256GB storage unit in the Infinix Zero X Pro with the same RAM capacity. Expand storage limits through the dedicated secondary slot.

Camera

The camera technology used in both models offers the most suitable result, whether shooting in daylight or in night mode. It all goes very well with the precise mix of AI software interaction. In addition, the native camera app has a dedicated night mode to accurately tone dark subject photos. Also, the colors and saturation of the image come out decent; so you can click on the best time of your life without worrying.

In terms of specs, the Infinix Zero X Pro has a 108MP main camera, while the Infinix Zero X comes with a 64MP lens. As for the secondary camera setup, the combination of an 8MP ultra-wide lens and periscopic telephoto brings the potential of 5x optical zoom. On the other hand, the selfie department houses a 16 MP lens that offers 1080p video recording.

Now that we talk about the videography aspect, both models render 4K video resolution with 30fps. However, the video stabilization features are not available as you will notice during use. However, the company compensates with many modes and filters. After that, you will also have an exclusive feature to create short videos.

Battery and Others

The long-lasting battery is the main selling point of the Infinix smartphone, and they strategically used this feature in the Infinix Zero X and Zero X Pro. Under the hood, the Li-Po 4,500 mAh battery powers the entire ecosystem and provides more than 5 hours of screen time to watch series on the web excessively. Inside the box, you will have the surprise 45W fast charging that will fill your battery to 100% in less than 50 minutes.

Also, the additional feature worth talking about would be the sound output that enriches the gaming experience. Also, you can equip a 3.5mm connector with the usual Type-C 2.0 port to supply the battery. Last but not least, the expected price of the Infinix Zero X would be $230 (Rs 17,000), while the starting price of the Zero X Pro will cost around $269 (Rs 19,999) approx. In short, both models are worth the value you are putting.
