Infinix SMART 9 is affordable and built tough: peep the specs, price

Posted by

Infinix SMART 9 is an entry-level Android smartphone, which should ordinarily mean it doesn’t have any standout feature. But this one comes to the game with claims to being tough, in addition to having IP54 dust and water resistance. Thrown in is an IR blaster for controlling appliances remotely.

It features a 6.7-inch display with 120Hz refresh rate, a punch hole and Dynamic Bar. It is powered by a Helio G81 SoC, coupled with 3GB or 4GB of RAM. Internal storage is either 64GB or 128GB.

The SMART 9 runs XOS 14.0 based on Android 14 (Go edition). The Go Edition of Android is a stripped down version designed to run smoothly on the low-end hardware of entry-level devices.
