The Infinix Hot 12 is one of the devices in the Hot 12 series launched by the company in the country this year. The Infinix Hot 12 Play is available in two variants both with 4GB of RAM with either 64 or 128GB of storage space. The 64GB variant is available for Ksh 16,500 on Jumia while the 128GB variant goes for Ksh 18,500.
Infinix already launched the Hot 12i in Kenya a few weeks back but it did not get hyped as much as the Hot 12 Play. The Hot 12 Play should be the company’s key entry-level device for the first half of 2022 and hence the buzz around it. This phone should compete with some recent devices from Xiaomi, vivo and even realme.
The Infinix Hot 12 Play packs some decent specs that make it worth looking at for anyone looking for a smartphone within this price range. It is quite an upgrade from its predecessor, the Infinix Hot 11 and 10 series. We did not hear much about the Hot 11 series that launched late last year in Kenya. Hopefully, the Hot 12 will fit right in and make the Infinix Hot series desirable again.
