Most Infinix fans are so excited to welcome another amazing smartphone from the company, who recently added another new ‘Hot series’ device called the Infinix Hot 6X to their portfolio. The Infinix Hot 6X is an upgraded version of the Infinix Hot 6 and Infinix Hot 6 Pro.
Most curious Infinix fans would be wondering what and what could this new device be offering, apart from its rumored slightly bigger display and the obvious notch? Stay tuned as we take you round this smartphone.
Design
Coming to the design of the newly added Infinix smartphone, it is quite sad to know that apart from the obvious Notch, there is no much difference in the design of the Infinix Hot 6X from its other two predecessors, which is the Hot 6 and Hot 6 Pro. The Infinix Hot 6X is built with a Polycarbonate plastic material that gives it a unique look.
The Infinix Hot 6X measures at 8.5mm in thickness and weighs 168g which I think is okay considering the huge battery that it comes with. Much like Hot 6 and Hot 6 Pro, the Infinix Hot 6X comes with a fingerprint sensor that is seated at the center of the back of this device. Also, at the back of this device is seated dual cameras that are vertically positioned at the top left side.
At the front side of the Infinix Hot 6X is were you see the super amazing massive 6.2-inch IPS LCD screen that comes with a resolution of 1500 X 720 pixels, which is quite amazing, don’t you think so? This device has a 19:9 aspect ratio and also comes with a notch that is accommodating the speaker grill, the selfie camera, and other sensors. When you look at the bottom of the Infinix Hot 6X screen, you will see a small chin which makes it quite possible for this device to be able to achieve the 87% screen to Body ratio.
The Infinix Hot 6X supports a 4G LTE connectivity on dual Micro SIMs. It also supports the other connectivities like Bluetooth 4.2, 3.5mm jack, USB port, Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Hotspot and A-GPS, GLONASS.
Camera
Like I earlier mentioned, the Infinix Hot 6X is not too different from its predecessor and you can also see that come into play in the camera segment of the previous Hot 6 versions. Just like other flagship smartphones, the Infinix Hot 6X houses a dual 13MP + 2MP camera sensors at the back. This cameras supports Portrait Mode and allows you to take shots with Bokeh Effects. The 13-megapixel which seems to be the main rear camera comes with a f/1.8 aperture while the secondary 2-megapixel comes with a f/2.4 coupled with a quad LED flash.
The front of this device houses a whopping 8MP selfie camera that comes with an AI Beauty Mode and also supports Face ID, a dedicated flash and f/2.0 aperture lens.

The Infinix Hot 6X runs on Android 8.1 Oreo which is what most other flagship smartphones runs on too, and coupled with the Infinix’s XOS Version 3.3.
Battery
The Infinix Hot 6X features a great battery life, this device comes with a whopping 4000 mAh non-removable Li-Ion battery. It also features a fast charging technology, and this simply means that this smartphone is capable of charging from zero to 100 percent in about two hours. However, we were not expecting to see any wireless charging technology in the device, as a result of its plastic design that it features. Moreover, the Infinix made claims that you can use your phones two days without charging after a full charge.
