Infinix Zero 5 Pro review: Capable camera, good battery lift this phablet on Business Standard. The smartphone, the first premium offering by Infinix, promises to offer value for money in terms of specifications and features

Technology News Transsion Holdings, a Hong Kong-based mobile phone manufacturer, recently launched the midtier Infinix Zero 5 Pro at Rs 19,999. The smartphone, the first premium offering by the company, promises to offer value for money in terms of specifications and features.

Business Standard reviewed the Infinix Zero 5 Pro to test its overall performance. Here are our observations: Design For a smartphone with a 6-inch screen, the Infinix Zero 5 Pro review comes across as huge and with its share of avoidable design flaws. The front is dominated by a 16:9 aspect ratio screen, which leaves huge bezels on top and bottom.

The fingerprint scanner, coupled with capacitive navigation keys, could have been housed below the screen to utilise the bottom bezel. Instead, the company has placed the fingerprint scanner on the back and chosen on-screen navigation keys, rendering the bottom bezel purposeless.

Infinix Zero 5 Pro In terms of build quality, the Zero 5 Pro looks solid and the chamfered edges on its sides and around the fingerprint sensor give an overall premium feel to the smartphone.

The antenna line on the back looks a bit too bold but does not cause any damage to the design theme.

The power button, volume rocker keys and dualSIM card slot are housed on the right.

Interestingly, the phone comes with a dedicated memory card slot – placed on the left – to expand the storage of the smartphone. The speaker grille, with microphone and USB type-C port for data transfer and charging, are placed at the bottom, along with a 3.5 mm audio port.

Display The 5.98-inch fullHD (1920 x 1080) 16:9 aspect ratio screen works optimally. The touch is responsive enough and the display renders good contrast and saturation. However, the sunlight legibility and peak brightness levels are some downsides. Also, the display looks a little pixelated, especially while rendering text and

videos.

Camera As for the imaging capabilities of the Zero 5 Pro, the phone has a dual camera set-up on the back – a 12-megapixel wide-angle primary lens and a 13MP telephoto lens. On the front, the smartphone houses a 16MP selfie shooter.
