The Infinix Smart 3 Plus is perhaps the only phone in the sub-Rs 7,000 segment to have a triple camera module.
Hong
Kong-based electronics maker Transsion Holdings’ smartphone brand
Infinix
recently launched the Smart 3 Plus – a budget smartphone with
triple rear cameras. Priced at Rs 6,999, the Flipkart-exclusive
smartphone seems to be a competitor to the Samsung Galaxy M10, Xiaomi
Redmi 7, and Realme C2.
On
paper, the Infinix Smart 3 Plus seems to be a decent entry-level
smartphone. Let’s take a look at what it offers:
Design
and display
The
Infinix
Smart 3 Plus has a 6.21-inch waterdrop notch-based IPS screen of
HD+ (1520 x 720) resolution. The screen delivers sharp tones and good
viewing angles, compared to smartphones in the same segment. The
phone weighs 148 g, and has a slim profile of 7.8 mm, making it easy
to hold and operate. The phone’s back has a glass-like appeal,
which is actually a polycarbonate panel with glossy lustre.
Performance
The
Smart 3 Plus is powered by MediaTek Helio A22 system-on-chip (SoC), a
quadcore processor that operates at a maximum frequency of 2GHz. The
processor is paired with 2GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage. The
phone boots XOS 5.0 Cheetah user interface, which is a heavily
customised version of Google Android Pie.
Specifications
aside, the phone handles day to day operations without any hiccups.
However, the weak processor fails to handle multitasking jobs or
multiple apps in the background. The OS-level customisations and
bloatware are also to blame for phone’s sluggish performance. The
phone has a dedicated game boost mode, which directs phone’s
hardware resources towards a game in motion. However, the device is
not suitable for graphic-intensive gaming titles such as PUBG.
Camera
The
Infinix Smart 3 Plus is perhaps the only phone in its segment to have
a triple camera module. The back camera set-up includes a
13-megapixel primary sensor, a 2MP depth sensor, and a low light
sensor of unspecified resolution. On the front, the phone has an 8MP
camera.
The
rear camera module supports artificial intelligence-based auto scene
selection, which recognises up to eight different scenes and adjusts
the frame settings accordingly. The camera interface also features a
customised Bokeh mode, allowing manual control to set the background
blur effect.
