Infinix Note 30 5G

The Infinix Note 30 5G is a brand new addition to the brand’s Note series of devices. It uses polycarbonate for the rear panel and frame, but offers good build quality and an IP53 rating for dust and water resistance.

The MediaTek Dimensity 6080 SoC seems capable enough to run the rather bloated XOS operating system which is based on Android 13. The phone also comes with plenty of bloatware and preinstalled third-party apps. The SoC is also quite capable when it comes to casual and mid-level games, but the display’s touch sampling rate seems quite insufficient.

The phone offers a rather large 6.78-inch full-HD+ LCD IPS panel with a 120Hz maximum refresh rate. It is Widevine L1 certified but its outdoor usability is a bit limited as it isn’t bright enough when used in direct sunlight.

Camera performance is quite good for a budget smartphone both in daylight and low light shooting scenarios. Video quality is also decent, but not in low light.
