When Infinix was developing their new line of Hot units, they kept in mind the fact that they could do so much more if they spread things around. That was why we got not just this Infinix Hot 6X, but the standard Hot 6 and Hot 6 Pro too.
Like many other series, the brand kept a lot of things the same on these units. That said, there is also a slew of nice differences that makes each one of the units stand out from the other one. For those who have been eyeing the Hot 6X for a while now, follow us as we bare it all for you.

Infinix Hot 6X Features Overview
It is not possible to miss the notch that comes with this Hot 6X. If you were looking to get the new waterdrop style notch, you might not be as happy as you wanted. However, they have done so well to work this notch into the 6.2-inch screen just fine.

Speaking of the screen, Infinix continued on an impressive run of devices launched under the 19:9 aspect ratio plan, making it fit even bigger screens into smaller hands. That also makes it possible for the brand to equip the Infinix Hot 6X display with 720 x 1500 pixel for an impressive overall density.
If not for the plastic design on the back, this could have passed for a premium device from the OEM. Not to be deterred by that, though, this plastic cover and LCD screen cover so much more under the hood. Of that, there are options for internal configurations.

This allows users to pick their Infinix Hot 6X with either 2GB slapped on 16GB or a better 3GB RAM CPU with as much as 32GB storage. No matter which one you go for, the device treats you to a Qualcomm Snapdragon 425 processor. Going elsewhere, the Hot 6X comes with an impressive dual camera setup on the back – sporting a 13MP main sensor and a smaller 2MP sensor for depth effects.
Dual LED flash ports are just fitting, and it has just that. Selfie lovers are shown some love with the impressive 8MP camera on the front featuring its own LED flash too. If we forgot to mention this the other time, the front camera of the Hot 6X also comes with a face unlock system while the back comes with a fingerprint scanner to match.

Infinix Hot 6X is available in finishes of Midnight Black, Champagne Gold, Kent Blue and Bordeaux Red, a non-removable 4000mAh battery is kept in to keep the power going.
