Daraz is Launching Infinix Hot 3 in Pakistan for just Rs. 9,999

Infinix is no longer a newcomer to the Pakistani market. The company has released many of its smartphones in Pakistan and its product lineup is maturing with every new release. As usual the phone manufacturer has partnered with Daraz to launch its latest entry level smartphone, the Hot 3.

Infinix Hot 3 changes the physical dimensions seen from its predecessors by increasing the smartphone’s screen size to 5.5-inches. The resolution remains at HD; however, Infinix has used a GFF lamination for the front glass which reduces the distance between the screen and the glass to just 1.2mm, for greater clarity and improved responsiveness. The Hot 3’s screen should also see less glare and reflections from your surroundings. Design-wise, Hot 3 builds on its predecessor maturing its plastic build with a rugged finish and a metallic frame.

The phone is powered by the same quad-core Mediatek 6580, clocked at 1.3 GHz, coupled with 1 gig of RAM and 16GB of storage. The microSD card support is there for cards of up to 32GB. The camera department got a minor upgrade with better sensors, however, the resolutions remain the same 8MP for front and 2MP for rear cameras. The front camera now shoots in 84-degree widescreen and with more vividness thanks to an increased pixel size of 1.6μm. Infinix has made some software improvements, like selfie soft light and beauty modes, bringing useful features which improve camera performance.

Hot 3’s battery got a big boost over its predecessor, which now comes with a 3,000mAh unit. Infinix claims the phone can now be used for 9 hours of browsing, 20 hours of talk time and 33 hours of music. The phone will also support OTG and reverse charging. The built-in music amplifier has also been upgraded to offer a superior sound experience.

  • 1 gb is the real deal breaker for me, not that it was the best phone in this price range, bt it would have been alot better, infinix is a progressive brand in pakistan bt with this one they got it all wrong, or should i say daraz got it all wrong cuz there is also 2gb ram version out there as well

  • My only complaint is with 1 GB Ram. It should have been 2 GB. Otherwise rest of the specs rock in this price range ?

  • باقی سب تو اچھا ہے مگر کیا کشمیر کی آزادی تک RAM نہ بڑھانے کا فیصلہ ہوچکا ہے؟

  • too much underpowered …. not a good move from Infinix !
    also , the CPU is ancient ! WHY CANT THEY EMBRACE NEWER TECH ?!

  • Now Infinix should launch mobiles with SnapDragon series. I have Zero3, it has heating issue even after 2 XUI update. Secondly Infinix should focus on camera! 21MP of Zero3 is of no Worth :(
