The thing about cheap smartphones is that corners have to be cut before the product hits your hands very many corners are cut in the quest to avail a budget smartphone. Production costs, shipping costs, marketing costs and others have to be factored in. The companies making them and those distributing them also have to take their cut. In the end? A not so cheap price tag.  So corners are cut out which includes 1. Battery cheap smartphones have a battery capacity as low as 1500 mAh. when price is higher you can get 2500 mAh .. the Infinix Hot Note have Good battery capacity but it flops in the other factors we are looking at here. Besides the great battery life, the Hot Note barely has anything going for it. 2.Camera If you need a smartphone with a good camera then be prepared to spend.  Infinix With cheap price is not capable of taking really awesome sunset photos with just one attempt. I guess guys who struggle to get good sunset shots on such devices give up halfway and end up being the ones stealing the amazing works of dedicated and hardworking professional photographers  3. Display Washed up displays are pretty much a feature of dirt cheap smartphones Gorilla Glass Corning’s Gorilla Glass is an industry standard. It adds an extra layer of protection to your smartphone’s display panel. It doesn’t come cheap and as a result, you won’t find it on those cheap smartphones Sensor: Want humidity and temperature sensors? A barometer? Infinix with cheap price dont have it. Processors: They are all Mediatek. End of story. Not that there is anything wrong about Mediatek chips but they happen to be the cheapest hence their prevalence of the smartphone entry level category. More mature brands like Samsung, Microsoft, Huawei and Tecno have established structures to assist you incase you have issues after you buy your smartphone. They have fully operational 24 hour customer care hotlines and you can as well walk into any of their shops or care centres for assistance. Also depending on where you bought the phone, the retailer may be of great assistance.
