Budget smartphones have come a long way and now have features that have trickled down from their midrange and flagship counterparts. The best example is the Infinix Note 12i (REVIEW) which comes loaded with green flags and a high spec-to-price value – setting the bar for smartphones under 20K in the country.
The Infinix Note 12i is the entry-level device in the Note 12 series that includes the regular Note 12, Note 12(G96), Note 12 VIP, and the Note 12 Pro 5G. Even though the Note 12i is the smallest sibling it proves its mettle in the Note 12 series.
