Published on October 1, 2019, just as the Infinix S4 was hitting the market, rumors about the Infinix S5 were already circulating.
Although the Infinix S5 is not expected to launch anytime soon, with a possible release early next year, recent leaks have given us a glimpse of what to expect from the device.
Key Features of the Infinix S5 ¶
- The Infinix S5 is expected to feature a punch-hole display, a design trend that was initially exclusive to high-end devices but is now becoming increasingly common in budget phones.
- The device will likely have a quad rear camera setup, with one of the sources suggesting a single 48MP lens, which is a significant upgrade from the Infinix S4's 32MP selfie camera.
- The Infinix S5 may feature a tall display with a 20:9 aspect ratio, similar to the Infinix HOT 8, which is currently on pre-order in Kenya.
- The device is expected to have a large battery, possibly a 5000mAh battery, similar to the Infinix HOT 8.
The Infinix S4 was a well-received device, especially with its 6GB RAM model starting at just KES. 18,000.
It's interesting to note that budget phones are already adopting features that were once exclusive to high-end devices, such as punch-hole cameras.
