The phone comes with a lot of bloatware preinstalled including in-house and some third-party apps like XTheme, XClub, AI Gallery, Opera News, ShareChat, Flipkart, Instagram and Facebook.

Infinix Hot 8 performance and battery life

The MediaTek Helio P22 processor on the Infinix Hot 8 works well for basic tasks like web browsing, social media usage, and running basic productivity apps. But the phone starts to slow down as soon as 10 apps or games are running in the background.

Multitasking was slow on the handset earlier but it has been improved with updates. This phone is not for those who need to switch between multiple apps frequently. Heavy apps and games take time to load, normal games like Mario Kart Tour ran smoothly on the handset but PUBG Mobile and Asphalt 9 failed to load even after multiple attempts.

If you are looking for a phone to use for day-to-day tasks, the Infinix Hot 8 works well. One thing we liked was that the phone did not heat up while gaming. The Infinix Hot 8 is powered by a 5,000mAh battery that easily lasts all day.

Usage includes gaming, internet connectivity, social media and productivity apps, listening to music for hours with the help of wired earphones. Despite the usage, the phone lasted for a day and a half. In our HD video loop test, the phone lasted for 17 hours and 21 minutes.

Infinix Hot 8 cameras

First let’s talk about the camera app. Basic camera modes and controls such as AI Cam, Beauty, Video, Bokeh, and AR buttons are given in a strip above the shutter button. Buttons to control HDR, flash, scene modes, and aspect ratio are given above the viewfinder.

Surprisingly, this Infinix brand phone cannot capture photos in 16:9 aspect ratio. It is worth noting that often the shutter button does not respond for a few seconds after switching the camera mode. Now let’s talk about the photo quality.

Photos taken with the 13-megapixel primary camera in daylight were good. Autofocus was mostly accurate and photos looked vibrant. There was no lack of sharpness when viewing the photos on the phone’s display. Dynamic range was also good but every photo lacked a little sharpness around the edges and corners.

We liked that the phone doesn’t oversaturate the colours of objects. When it comes to close-up shots, the Infinix Hot 8 takes crisp photos with good detail and sharp edges. Bokeh shots captured in daylight had decent subject separation and decent colours but edge detection didn’t work properly.

After taking a picture, the intensity of the blur and the point of focus can be adjusted in the default gallery app. Indoor pictures taken in low light were grainy and had muted colours along with some noise. The dedicated night mode takes slightly better pictures.

The 8-megapixel front camera captures decent images. Selfies taken in daylight were vibrant but skin smoothening was clearly visible. Selfies taken in low light showed grain. The Infinix Hot 8 smartphone is capable of recording videos up to 1080p resolution, but due to the lack of stabilization, the footage is jerky.

Our verdict

The Infinix Hot 8 comes with a competent hardware. However, despite having 4GB of RAM, the phone struggles while multitasking. Redmi 7 And Realme 3i ,Review) with less RAM are better as they have faster processors. The performance of the phone is good provided you are not playing heavy games.
