The Infinix Note 10 is now available in a number of countries including India and Kenya. The Note 10 was announced May this year together with it's Pro version and is now available for pre-order with a price of Ksh. 19,499 for the 6+128GB variant.
It takes over from last year's Note 8 and has a number of improvements including a slightly better processor, better display quality and a lovely design. However there are a number of similar specs including the same screen size.
The launch of the Infinix Note 10 series came just days after it's sister brand Tecno Launched the Camon 17 series as their latest camon phones. This is why it is not surprising that the Infinix Note 10 has a lot of similarities with the Camon 17 just like what we saw in last year's Infinix Zero 8 and Camon 16 Premier.
Since the price of the new Infinix Note 10 is exactly the same as that of the Note 8 when it launched November Last year, the upgrades are a welcomed improvement and safe for the zero Gorilla Glass protection Infinix Mobility have given us a much worthy note phone we haven't seen for the last two years.
The Infinix Note 10 features a 6.95 inch IPS LCD screen the same size as it's predicessor the Note 8 and slightly bigger than the 6.6 inch in the Camon 17. Though it would have been great if Infinix had given us an OLED panel here, the 90Hz refresh rate and 180Hz touch sampling rate are a welcomed addition and this is the first time we're seeing a much more responsive display in an Infinix Note phone.
The display resolution of this phone is a Full HD+ of 1080 x 2460 pixels exactly the same as the Camon 17 Pro. This is a worthy upgrade from the 720 x 1640 pixels of the Note 8. With a 20:9 aspect ratio, a center punch hole design and a good pixel density of 387 ppi you will love watching videos and playing games in this phone.
The phone is powered by a MediaTek Helio G85 Octa-core processor with 2x 2.0 high performance cores and 6 x 1.8 GHz efficiency cores. This is slightly powerful than the Helio G80 in the Note 8.
The processor is backed by 4 or 6GB of RAM making this phone a true budget gaming phone and can handle any task you throw at it be it multitasking or gaming. It is very unlikely that you will experience any lagging or heating issues with this phone.
Just like it's predicessor the Note 10 is made of a Glass front, a plastic back and a plastic frame and has no Glass protection or IP rating meaning this phone is not dust or water resistant. You will have to be extra careful with your phone at all times. While the decision to go for plastic is so as to bring the price of this phone as low as possible, we have already seen a number of much cheaper phones especially from Xiaomi that have Gorilla Glass protection including the Redmi Note 8 and Note 9.
Being a 2021 phone it ships with Android 11 atop the XOS 7.6 skin. Just like Tecno's HiOS, the XOS has not been my favorite due to it's annoying ads and lots of bloatware and I won't say anything much about it here.
This phone is available in three memory variants of 4+64, 4+128 and 6+128GB making it one of the very few under 20k phones with such an amount of storage and we must give it to Infinix for doing a proud job here. You can choose between three color variants of Black, Purple or Emerald Green.
In the camera department the Infinix Note 10 has a total of four cameras three in the rear and one in front. The rear cameras are made up of a primary 48MP wide lens, a 2MP monochrome and a 2MP depth sensor. Supported Camera features include LED flash, panorama and HDR and can shoot 4k videos.
After realizing there was not much benefit in the dual selfie camera of the Note 8, Infinix decided to get rid of the secondary selfie camera and give us a single 16MP selfie camera which is more than enough for your selfie needs.
The phone is powered by a non removable 5,000 mAh battery which Infinix claims can give you up to 49 days Standby, 11 days gaming, 58 hours calling and up to 142 hours music playback. It also Supports 18W charge which is not that bad considering it's price.
