The first impression that comes to mind about the Infinix Note 12i is actually the smartphone's USP - a 6.7-inch FHD+ AMOLED display and that too in the sub-Rs. 10000 segment. Well, it settles with a 60Hz refresh rate and 180Hz touch sampling rate.  (Divya / HT Tech)

The Infinix Note 12i is powered by the MediaTek Helio G85 chipset which runs on Android 12 with XOS 12 out of the box. It comes in a single variant of 4GB LPPDDR4x RAM with 64GB storage.

Infinix Note 12i is equipped with a triple-camera setup at the back which brings a 50MP primary camera with f/1.6 aperture. Besides this, a 2MP depth sensor and an unspecified QVGA AI lens. In the limited time of that we got to use it, the main camera performance is satisfactory in daylight, considering the price.  (Divya / HT Tech)
