Infinix Smart HD

OhoPrice editorial review

Our Take: The Infinix Smart HD at Rs 13,999 is one of the cheapest phones in this batch, yet it delivers a 5000 mAh battery and 32 GB of storage at an extremely competitive price. The Helio A20 is a 12 nm chip that handles basic tasks without significant drama, though the PowerVR GE8320 GPU struggles with gaming. The 6.1-inch display at 282 PPI produces text that is noticeably sharper than the 260-270 PPI panels common at this price. With 2 GB of RAM, the phone struggles with multitasking — opening a third app often causes the first one to close from memory. The 32 GB of storage is tight but adequate for light users. The 8 MP AI camera captures passable daylight photos, and the 5 MP selfie camera with dual LED flash handles basic video calls. The 5000 mAh battery provides standard all-day endurance. At 158.3 mm tall and 9.8 mm thick, the phone is chunky but functional. This phone suits ultra-budget buyers who want a sharp display and decent battery at the lowest possible cost. The Villaon V50s at Rs 21,399 costs Rs 7,400 more but offers 4 GB of RAM (expandable to 8 GB) and 64 GB of storage — specifications that significantly outclass the Smart HD's 2 GB RAM and 32 GB storage. The Infinix's 282 PPI display is also sharper than many competitors at this price. The Villaon's 4000 mAh battery is smaller than the Smart HD's 5000 mAh cell. For buyers who want the cheapest phone with a sharp display and decent battery, the Infinix Smart HD delivers genuine value; the Villaon V50s offers more RAM and storage for those who can afford the premium.
