Many people always face the decision of choosing between TECNO and Infinx based on a low budget. While it might be easy to just say TECNO is better than Infinix or say the reverse, this argument goes beyond sentiments. So, we are going to provide you with details as to which of these brands make better phones. But before we do that, it’s good we let you know a little about these brands. This way you’d be able to understand their similarities and differences, this will also help you understand which is better. These two brands have become the most popular brands in a country like Nigeria and the majority of Africa and growing in popularity. One reason is that they offer some of the cheapest smartphones in these markets. However, there has always been a great debate about which is better; TECNO or Infinix? There are many reasons a person will base his/her choice, from the design of a brand to the price, durability, availability, and of course the processing power. I will try to examine these two brands on those criteria to help narrow down which brand wins. But first here are a few things to know about TECNO Vs Infinix.

In which aspects the brand Infinix is better than TECNO?
In terms of the body, TECNO Phones have sleek bodies, every Techno product comes with a design that looks attractive and pleasant to the eyes. The TECNO Phantom 8 has the best design not just a sleek body of art but an accessory that compliments the day-to-day feel. It bounces long rays of light off it and waves them back and forth as you move it most subtly. Infinix on the other hand looks appealing that one might get confused seeing an Infinix Hot Note 2 that looks exactly like an iPhone.
The two brands always give their best when it comes to their designs. Infinix has some models that resemble other high-end devices in design, e.g Infinix S5 with its infinity display resembles that of the Samsung A series or iPhone. When comparing both brands in this TECNO Vs Infinix battle, it has always been the case that most TECNO devices come with a newer flagship design that has never been implemented on any Infinix device, TECNO most times had it first.
Although, it has always been the case that most TECNO devices come with a newer flagship design that has never been implemented on any Infinix device, so TECNO most times had it first. For example, the first Dot-in-hole camera design came from TECNO Camon 12 air before Infinix S5 lite a month later, the first pop-up selfie camera is a TECNO device, the Camon 15 Pro, because of its wide varieties (more than Infinix), the brand can implement many designs, with some of its best at the top of the line Phantom series. Therefore if generally comparing the two brands on the ground of aesthetics and design, Tecno will score more marks.
In which way is the brand TECNO better?
Processing power and Battery
Processing power is one major way to know a better device, but interestingly, in this battle of TECNO Vs Infinix we could say that TECNO uses Mediatek Processors ranging from dual, quad to Octa cores. Both devices also have models built for endurance with big batteries, but as always TECNO had it first and bigger. For example, TECNO has for a long time had a few models built with a 6000mAh battery while we are still expecting the first Infinix to have a 6000mAh battery.
Technology
This is the factor that sets apart any device, categorizing some as low-end, mid-range, or high-end, the technology used. Both TECNO and Infinix devices are generally categorized as Mid-range (The majority of their flagships) with some of their models also being low-end. However, the TECNO brand has some devices that can scale to the high-end range, the Phantom series, they built with more features and more power, no Infinix device could compare as of now. Infinix has an edge though, Infinix Note 5, gives you the best android experience
Availability
TECNO beats Infinix hands down on this one. TECNO models are so numerous that you can get one with any size of your budget for a smartphone. It's the only brand that has a Tablet as well and is in more countries than its counterpart. In this battle of TECNO Vs Infinix we have to say that the availability aspect can’t be compared.
Software and Stability
TECNO and Infinix are android based but are shipped with their OS flavor baked into them (except Infinix Note 5 that uses Android One), HiOs and XOs respectively. Both are fairly stable with updates and patches regularly released. However, more recently the TECNO HiOs come highly bloated with ads littering the whole screen, this can be very annoying. However it’s not without a solution, you can
Advatage of Infinix over TECNO
The advantage Infinix offers users is top-end specs at a very affordable price point. Consider the Infinix Hot Note 2 4G version for instance. The phone has a better battery (4040 mAh), bigger screen (6 inches), good RAM (2GB) compared to the recently launched TECNO Boom J8 that has similar 4G and RAM specs but a smaller screen.
Camera
Camera quality has surpassed the number of Megapixels, Infinix cameras are second to non very superb when it comes to camera quality, but just know you can get a mid-range camera phone on TECNO Camon or Infinix. But for the sake of this article, I will give it to Infinx because of its Note series.
This is the end of the TECNO Vs Infinix battle, now you know which one fits better according to your needs.
