Android One Inside
Infinix Hot 2 runs on the latest flavour of Android, the Android 5.1 (Lollipop), which offers faster performance and a more efficient use of battery. However, the most interesting aspect is that the new smartphone is based on Google's Android One standard.The major advantage of AndroidOne is that it ensures that the phone gets the latest version of Android as soon as it becomes available as Google will be responsible for delivering updates and security patches.
Infinix Hot 2 is the first smartphone in Nigeria to be built on Android One standard, which is aimed at offering high quality phones at affordable prices in developing countries.
Display & Camera
Infinix Hot 2 offers a better display. It is still 5-inch, but now packs more pixels with a 720 x 1280 pixels resolution for a more brilliant view.The camera is also getting a bump with an 8 megapixels camera on the back. This will ensure great quality photos on the Infinix Hot 2. The front facing camera still retains 2 megapixels.
Hardware
