Infinix Smart 3 Plus Review

Does the Infinix Smart 3 Plus have enough firepower to take on Xiaomi and Realme's affordable phones?

What kind of a smartphone can you get for Rs. 6,999? Two years ago, the answer would have been a barebones package with entry-level hardware and laggy software. That has changed pretty quickly, with several well-rounded phones being launched at affordable prices. There are now several big and small brands vying to hit that ‘value-for-money' bullseye, and Infinix is one of them.

Infinix has been trying to make its mark in the budget segment for quite some time, and the company's latest offering – the Infinix Smart 3 Plus – might turn out to be an attractive option for buyers. Priced at Rs. 6,999, this phone tries to punch above its weight by offering three rear cameras and an appealing design, plus some software tricks thrown into the mix.

On paper, the Infinix Smart 3 Plus appears to be a great budget phone, but can it wow users with its performance and steal some thunder from Xiaomi and other popular brands? Let's find out in our Infinix Smart Plus 3 Plus review.

Infinix Smart 3 Plus design

At first glance, the Infinix Smart 3 Plus could be mistaken for a more premium phone. Infinix has gone for a glossy body, and the back panel sports a layer of clear plastic that tries to ape the reflectivity of glass. The edges are rounded to provide a comfortable in-hand feel, but we found this phone to be a tad too slippery.

We were a little relieved to see that the company has not gone for the kind of cheap, spray-painted gradient finish that is all the rage these days, and has opted for a more understated look. There is, however, no protective material of any kind on the glossy rear panel. It also attracts fingerprint marks and dust particles rather easily.

Infinix Smart 3 Plus performance, cameras, and battery life

Before we go into details about the Infinix Smart 3 Plus' performance and camera quality, let's talk about the display. The 6.21-inch HD+ panel renders vibrant colours and we didn't have any trouble watching content on it. Viewing angles are good, and so is sunlight legibility. The screen is quite reflective and it's a bit difficult to see content against dark backgrounds under sunlight.

There is an adaptive brightness mode for automatic brightness adjustment. An ‘Inadvertently mode' prevents the phone from registering unintended touch input by ‘extrusion or fabric sliding while in the pocket', and though we didn't find it to be particularly useful, it did work as expected.
