Who wins on what

Ranked by what users actually praise

Overall Impression

The 120Hz display and camera system impress for the price. Multiple commenters were genuinely surprised to find a 120Hz refresh rate on a budget device, calling it impressive for gaming use like Call of Duty. The 108MP main camera also earned praise for picture quality, and one reviewer noted the IPS LTPS panel with DCI-P3 wide color gamut is a step above typical IPS screens on rival budget phones, even though it isn't AMOLED.

Gaming performance is solid but has real limits. Users report Genshin Impact runs playably at medium-low settings around 40-50fps, and CODM plays smoothly, positioning it as a good budget gaming phone. However, some questioned why the newer G99 chipset doesn't outperform an older Helio G90T for high-graphics gaming, and the video resolution cap tied to the processor was noted as a limitation.

The iPhone-inspired design divides opinion sharply. Several buyers love the look and said it directly influenced their purchase, praising the horizon gold color option. But just as many criticize it as an unoriginal iPhone clone likely to invite teasing, and point to the thick bottom bezel and uneven camera island spacing as dated or distracting design flaws that undercut the premium look Infinix is going for.
