The Infinix Note 2 and the Cubot Note S are two devices that make up the low ‘mid-range’ market segment. These devices are meant to be low end ones but are not the cheapest ones from the specific manufacturers.
The Infinix Note 2 has been around for about two months now while the Cubot Note S was launched in the country a few days ago. These devices have a lot of similarities and the Cubot Note S reminds me of the original Infinix Hot Note which came with a very low price and decent specs. The Hot Note was very successful in terms of sales and Cubot may have noticed this and that is why the company decided to come up with its own device to rival Infinix. If this is the case, Cubot may be playing catch up as the recently launched Infinix Note 2 is the second device in this lineup.
