In short I will explain why these two Smartphones are the hottest deals in Nairobi and Countrywide too. Its not that they are cheap, they are anyway but the features these two phones have surpass the premium products from companies like HTC, Samsung and LG. The proof is in the following table, its going to be an ouch moment if you bought a 20K, 30K or 40K Android Smartphone recently. I have had a chance of using the InfinixX507 smartphone recently and I can comfortably say its a good product for a waaaaaaaay below price. More on this after the comparison table below of other deals on the jumia Kenya website. All the smartphones below have a screen size of 5.0″ and a RAM of 1GB.

As for the Injoo note 5.5 Inch smartphone it only costs Ksh11,999 while the LG G3 costs almost Ksh45,ooo. The only difference between these two phones is that the LG G3 lacks the dual SIM capability which it compensates for having an extra 1GB RAM and extra processing power. Check for yourself the Injoo note specs here. The Injoo note even has a bigger camera coming in at 13MP than the Samsung Note 4 which has 8mp and a lower battery capacity at 2600mAh.
So when buying a phone do you buy a brand name or the specifications?
Brand name and specs do matter but when looking at great deals like the ones from Injoo and Infinix, it is ok to ignore the brand name bit. However, there is much more when it comes to the specs more so the kind of processor. It may be a quad-core or an octa-core but… Anyway that’s mainly for the geeks and advanced users. Ordinary won’t care if it is a Mediatek or Snapdragon so …
So specs it is…..
So.. what about the sound…? No one is talking about the Audio anywhere on the net. I would like to know what techsawa thinks about the Audio…
Hello NaeNae, the sound is OK but not great until you plug in a good pair of earphone or connect it via Bluetooth to a music player
