The recently released Infinix Smart 9 is the talk of the town in budget Smartphone world. Loaded with interesting features, such as a 120Hz display, big battery and good camera system, it offers great bang for the buck. Targeted to first-time users, students and low-end smartphone users, the Smart 9 comes with a high-end look but at a lower price.
Big 120Hz Screen for Effortless Performance
The smartphone has a 6.7-inch HD+ IPS LCD display with a 120Hz refresh rate and 500 nits of brightness. This allows smooth scrolling and good animation frame rates, for everyday usage including browsing, video and light gaming. The contemporary punch hole design and narrow bezels contributes to its allure of looking stylish and modern.

Work Super Fast with MediaTek Helio G81
The Infinix Smart 9 is powered by the MediaTek Helio G81 SoC, paired with 3GB or 4GB of RAM, and up to 8GB virtual RAM support. Internal hardware includes 64GB or 128GB of storage, and microSD allows for more expansion if you need the space for apps, media, and files. It does the multitasking, streaming and light gaming without a hitch, providing a lag free experience for daily use.
Up to 20-hour Battery Life + Reverse Charging
The Smart 9 is fuelled by a 5,000mAh battery, which means more than a day-long battery life in a single charge. There’s only 10W wired charging on board, though you can use the phone to charge other devices in reverse via cable – which is rare at this price point. This makes it perfect for people on the go.
