The Infinix Note 8i was officially launched in Kenya last night together with the Infinix Note 8. The Note 8 is available in Kenya for Ksh 21,800 while the Note 8i is available in Kenya starting from Ksh 15,999 for the 4GB RAM variant that has 64GB of internal storage space and Ksh 17,499 for the 4GB RAM variant that has slightly bigger storage space of 128GB.
The Infinix Note 8i is the successor to the Note 7 that we saw in the country earlier this year. It is interesting to see two version in the same series launch in the country within the same year. The main reason for this has to do with competition on the market. The company has to release a new phone every so often if it is to stay relevant on the market.
The Infinix Note 8i has some impressive specifications that are not so bad for a phone within its price. The phone is competing with some other decent phones from Tecno, Xiaomi, realme and even vivo. It will be interesting to see how this competition shapes up.
Below is a look at some of the other specifications of the Infinix Note 8i.
