Infinix Note 12
everybody welcome back to another with lim reviews now today's blogs is really going to be focused on Infinix brand new device as you can see from the title above i do have the infinix note 12 g96 here in my hand and i've been using it for the past few days and i just wanted to share my thoughts with you guys now just to not be confused the note 12 itself comes in two variants there is the g88 version and my version here which is the more powerful one the g96 alright having said that this device here launched in malaysia at a very attractive price point of under 800 ringgit um to be honest i'm also still glad that we have brands like infinix who are pushing off these kind of budget phones so those people out there who still do not have a lot of budget they are still sort of taken care of well let's see for the amount of money what do you really get with the infinix note 12 g96 i'll be going over a couple of key features and everything that you might need to know in case you are wondering whether or not you should purchase this guy and with that said let's jump into the video right away now first things first we're going to talk a bit about the design we do have three different colors for the infinix note 12 g96 now mine here is the one in black obviously and it is a little bit different from the other colors because this one does come with a couple of wavy lines at the back that is actually a sort of a texture at the back as well because you can feel it with your own fingers it's not like they just printed something onto it there is an actual texture at the back that me personally i don't really like it but i believe some of you guys out there might like this kind of thing so that's that now in terms of the slimness it's actually a fairly slim device coming in at just 7.88 millimeters so also very lightweight so you don't have to worry about your phone being too heavy and all that now if you take a look at the frame itself we have flat sides that goes all around and this definitely makes the phone look and even feel more premium
than the price is asking for all right so moving down to the bottom we do notice that we do have that type c part you have dual stereo speakers here guys
and it sounds quite good apart from that
you also still have your headphone jack but somehow i know it's not really aligned to the frame itself so i'm not too sure about that but at least you still have the headphone jack now on the
right you do have your volume rocker together with that a fingerprint scanner a lock button and on the left you do have a sim card tray that actually supports micro sd so in case you feel that the memory is not enough you can always just purchase an sd card a micro sd card externally and just pop it in that would solve your problems now moving on to the back there's actually quite an interesting feature here and that is in terms of the cameras at the back now if you take a look at this you might think that we actually have a triple camera setup over here and you might not be wrong we do have two actual
cameras here a 50 megapixel main sensor
a two megapixel dev sensor and the third
one down here is actually for display purposes so actually you only get two sensors guys do not be fooled by this uh third eye at the bottom all right so having said that overall design wise i think it's fine i mean for the price point definitely uh quite interesting quite minimalist flat sides all around it does look the job all right so let's move on and talk a little bit about the next thing and that is in terms of the front we do have that 6.7 inch 1080p amoled display now for the price of just under 800 ringgit having an amoled display here is definitely good unfortunately it only comes in at 60hz refresh rate i would have hoped it came with at least 90 hertz but at least the amoled display here is actually quite all right in terms of your contrast levels and saturation levels you can't really compare this AMOLED panel to more expensive ones it does the job quite well but in terms of brightness levels it doesn't get very high in terms of the viewing angles it's also not the best out there now the good news here is that it's great for watching all kinds of unfortunately netflix hd is not supported here because it's only l3 for the security rating and all that so you don't get to watch netflix and hd you can only watch in an sd standard definition but if you want to watch youtube you know play your games and all that i think this large 6.7 inch display is still doing a fairly good job especially if you just like to watch normal kind of videos on youtube this one should do the trick pretty well all right so that's just in terms of the display now in terms of the processor yes i did mention earlier on it came with the helio g96 now this processor is actually quite outdated by today's standards but in terms of performance it still performs quite similarly to something like the snapdragon 680 so you might be familiar with that processor we are seeing a lot of those budget phones today using the snapdragon 680 but we do have the helio g96 here just in terms of gaming i noticed that i was able to play mobile legends pubg and even free fire uh very smoothly without much lags or delays on medium graphics settings so i won't really complain about the gaming performance here because it can definitely handle games now in terms o day-to-day user it's also quite smooth in launching your applications there's no like lags or stutters and serious kind of lagginess in the phone itself everything is actually quite smooth here on the infinix note 12 g96 another good thing i want to mention here is in terms of the haptics engine now it's not using the best haptics engine but it does come with i'm not mistaken it's a z-axis uh linear haptic so that means that the vibrations are also quite short very crisp and they're not like those you know tardy kind of feeling so good to have proper haptics in here now moving on let's talk about that cameras at the back like i mentioned earlier on you have a 50 megapixel main sensor you have a 2 megapixel dev sensor
Infinix note 12 Full Review
and that third sensor for display purposes all right so in terms of the pictures i was actually quite pleasantly surprised now let me explain uh daytime shots looks quite all right it's just decent for the again for this price range you have sufficient details you have a good amount of dynamic range and of course in terms of the colors it's not to say super saturated it's actually quite toned back to look quite natural so i think that's quite okay in terms of daytime shots however when it came to night time shots this is where i got quite surprised because the phone itself was able to brighten a very very dark scene not only that it was actually able to brighten the image by quite a lot guys so again i was taking a couple of images at night just testing out the note 12 g96 and i noticed a lot of these images actually look very very good guys so that's pretty much what i can say in terms of the camera in terms of day time shots you get decent pictures and in terms of night time shots you get very bright night images so i think that's great all right so last but not least let's talk a little bit about the battery as well as the charging speeds now for your battery you do get a 5000 mah battery in here which i think is quite good considering the device is quite slim in terms of the charging speeds you get a 33 watt fast charge charger in the box but it actually takes more than an hour to charge from zero to a hundred percent so it's not really super fast or anything like that it's just faster than your typical 5 to 10 watt charger from last generation all right guys so that pretty much sums up my experience with the infinix note 12 g96 overall for the price of under 800
ringgit i still think that this device is something that you should consider if your budget is within that price range you do get a couple of decent features on board and of course it's not the best but it's still doing a great job at being a budget phone anyways let me know what you guys think about the infinix note 12 g96 let me know down in the comment section below if you have further questions i will also try to help you out last but not least don't forget to drop a like and sub to the channel and i hope to see all of you guys in the next one stay safe everybody
