I need infinix hot 9
Chatra Infinix hot 9 Just coming to phone
With the Infinix Hot 9 that we’re all looking forward to be released in across African Countries, we are looking for a better series that comes with the 4GB Ram and 64GB Rom in Africa Counries. In fact, we’re sick and tired of 2GB ram and 32GB Rom that always causes our devices to work very slowly when applications are being downloaded on the device or even when the 2GB Ram get full.
Moreover, i suggested the Hot 9 cameras and batteries to be increased…… I have attested of the Hot 8 X650B device, I’m using one and it always misbehave when the 2GB Ram is full and due to that it causes the device to perform very slowly and i hates when it starts working slowly. I have already planned if the Hot 9 comes not with 4GB/64GB in African I’ll not waste my money to purchase but will rather go in for different products that would come up with my satisfaction.
