  1. I was conned into buying the phone.Please stay away from the phone. THE PHONE STARTED OVERHEATING JUST AFTER PURCHASE.
    I took it back the following day at which they refused to acknowledge the fault. Besides that the phone is very heavy, worse quality camera besides what they are promising.Even pictures sent from other phones appear bad on the phone.
    The user interface is sooo outdated. I use the Router to connect to network.All other phones will connect except the Hisense. I felt like I just threw away my money.

  2. I’m happy with Hisense H50 so far even thou the picture quality is not what I have expected however I’m enjoying it, yes it’s heavy although I’m still happy. It’s something new for a change ☺️

  3. I doesn’t reboot, was saying “device is corrupted’ from the second day after buying it. Took it back but it was fixed instead of exchanging. Now it switches off when you try to reboot it, doesn’t charge when its off
    now it doesn’t show if is charging or not, screen freeze. dotty of a phone nje

  4. Its never 100% when charged and doesn’t show that its charging. it makes a cracking sound when the lens for selfie pops up. doesn’t charged when switched off. I regret buying this kind of phone, not value for money.

  5. The question is what is not wrong with this phone. The specs look amazing, until you have it. Then you will see what a huge mistake you made by choosing this phone. It doesn’t want to connect to my WiFi, I can hardly go onto Google, it is soooooo slow!!!! Camera really sucks! It’s just a useless brick.

  6. Please can you assist, i was told the phone has slot for dual Sim, but i could only see 1 SIM Slot, when i inquired from the seller i was told the Micro SD slot can be used for second sim, then activate, when i put i put they second sim, it does not recognize the SIM, I have followed the activation method, still can not see it. Please can you confirm to me if actually the phone is dual Nano SIM as claimed?

    Phone: INFINITY H50 ZOOM

    I will be glad to get your quick response.

    Regards.

  7. Ive had this phone since october last year and ive had 1 issue after the first update and i got it fixed. Since then the phone was nothing short of amazing next phone is h60

  8. My husband and I both got H50’s about 6 months ago. Both experiencing the same issue of the screen not responding to touch or it just malfunctions and starts selecting things by itself. Worst of all mine came apart. It literally split in half, front part detached from back. Battery lasts forever though. Love that also very happy with picture quality
