The unique selling point of the S4 aka the reason why Infinix wants you to buy the smartphone is the 32MP selfie camera.
That said, here is what the S4 has to offer. We do hope that this specifications review will give you an insight on whether the S4 is the right fit for you. Be sure to leave your comments below in the case you need more information about the S4.
That said, let’s dive into the specifications review of the Infinix S4.
Camera Specifications
Back Camera: 13+8+2 MP>
Front Camera: 32 MP
LED Flash: Yes
The Infinix S4 has a delicious camera profile. You get a triple rear camera system, the first of its kind on an Infinix smartphone.
So, do you really need a triple camera system? Well, it depends on your take mobile photography.
If you are a photography enthusiast, you totally need a triple camera system, if not, the dual camera in the Infinix Hot 7 will work just fine.>
Okay, that settled. Let’s talk a bit about how the S4 triple camera system works. We have the 2MP camera, that one is for Bokeh. For those, not familiar with Bokeh, have you ever seen those awesome photos where the background of the photo is blurred and only the subject is in focus? That’s the Bokeh effect.
The 13 MP is the main camera of the S4, this one will be the one you use to take your photos. The 8 MP camera on the other hand, if for wide-angle shots. Wide angle shots are those that have a wide field of view and enable you to take photos of a wide scene, for example one with a large number of people.
The selfie camera is also pretty dope. You get a 32MP AI selfie camera. The focus, pun unintended, is on the sensor, the S4 packs the Samsung S5KGD1 image sensor. Samsung is a big name in mobile photography and thus this alone gives the selfie camera some street cred.
It was rather essential to use the S5KGD1 image sensor on the S4 since it’s optimized for low-light photography and the S4 lacks a front-facing flash.
Display Specifications
Display Size: 6.2-inch
Display Type: IPS
Screen Resolution: 1520 x 720 Pixels
Screen Resolution Density: 271 PPI
Screen Protection: None
The Infinix S4 packs a 6.2-inch IPS LCD display. The display has a 1520 x 720 Pixels resolution and 271 PPI screen resolution density. The display profile of the S4 isn’t exactly impressive and its pretty much the standard for budget smartphones.
Infinix has always been the brand that offers more than what you pay for and it would have been awesome if the smartphone packed a more generous display profile especially on the resolution bit.
Design Specifications
Dimensions: 156 x 75 x 7.9 mm
The Infinix S4 is gorgeous. It’s one of those phones that people will notice when you slide it out of your pocket. I really like how it looks and I am pretty sure you’ll also do.
The downside of the design is that it’s a plastic construction and this works against a premium feel to satisfy our vanity needs.
Performance Specifications
Operating System: Android 9.0 Pie
CPU: 2.3 GHz Octa-core
RAM: 4GB
Internal Memory: 64GB
Micro SD: Yes, up to 128GB
The performance profile of the S4 is the other bit that makes the smartphone stand out from the crowd. The smartphone offers a 2.3 GHz Octa-core CPU and this coupled with 4GB RAM.
That set-up is quite good and the smartphone is able to handle pretty much everything at it, be it intensive games or applications.
Let’s talk about the storage. The Infinix S4 offers 64GB as internal storage and 4GB as RAM. This is a win and is above what the market currently offers.
About the software, the Infinix S4 runs Android 9.0 out of the box. The S4 is infact, the first Infinix smartphone to run Android Pie considering that it’s sibling the Hot 7 (X624 and X624B) run Android 8.1 Oreo.
Battery Specifications
Battery Capacity: 4000mAh
The Infinix S4 packs a large 4000mAh battery. The battery is large enough to last up to 2-days while on moderate usage.
