We finally get to review the latest Phablet from Infinix - Note 3 Pro.
We are welcomed with a rather long simple box with the Note 3 Pro's specs enumerated at the back. Opening the box, we are greeted with the unit, envelop containing manual, warranty card and pin, charger, data cable and in-ear headset. See our quick unboxing...
Infinix Note 3 Pro upfront reminds us of the old Note 2 with its large display and size. Built quality is superb with combination of metal for the body and top and bottom polycarbonate plastic guess for signal purposes. Top part lies only the headphone jack while bottom part is home to mic, microUSB port, and speaker grill. The Right side houses dedicated microSD slot together with the power/lock button and volume rocker. Dual Micro Sim slot is located on the left side of the device. At the back is the camera with dual led flash and the fingerprint sensor.
Infinix Note 3 Pro houses a 6 inch 1080p FHD IPS Display with 480 dpi. Icons are large enough and display is bright but need to turn on high settings in very sunlit environment. With its screen size, the smartphone is best for watching movies, videos and playing games as you have more usable screen. Miravision Technology is present to enhance picture quality. Navigation is through screen keys for home, back and apps.
Looking inside, Infinix Note 3 Pro is powered by Mediatek 6753 Octa-Core Processor with Mali-T720 GPU coupled with 3GB of RAM and 16GB Internal storage. Initial boot up, you get 10GB usable storage and 2GB free ram. Has dedicated microSD slot for storage expansion. Note 3 Pro scored nearing 40k levels in Antutu as for games we had no problems playing Asphalt Xtreme while for NBA 2K16 you need to adjust some settings to medium or low to get decent game play.
We go to software, Note 3 Pro runs the latest XOS Chameleon v2.0.0. Navigation is a breeze and such an optimize system. Provides system management controls from permission, memory, storage and battery. Gesture controls is available such as tap to wake, flip mute as well as one-hand operations. Other nifty features includes Screen Record and Screen Casting to wireless display.
Fingerprint sensor is available for more personalize security. Has quick registry but you should setup it up properly with at least 360 degrees fingerprint setup. It has gyroscope sensor which should be able to support augmented reality and the use of VR. As for Audio, its speakers is load which should compliment the Note 3 PRO entertainment qualities.
Moving on to camera, we are impressed with its outputs of its 13MP Rear camera even at f/2.2 aperture. Produced quality photos with great focus and dynamic range even in low light or night but it needs a tad bit of saturation for color. Auto mode is reliable while if you need more creative control Manual Mode is available ISO up to 1600 Shutter Speed up to 10 sec for Long Exposure. Other Photography Modes is available like Night, Panorama and PIP. Supports 1080p Video Recording and can take photos while recording. EIS is present to keep things smooth and steady. Outputs from 5MP front camera is also better and with Selfie flash, taking photos against the light is posible. My only comment is that they should properly label manual camera settings. We won't are shooting at 2 secs shutter as there is no label.

Offers near complete connectivity from WiFi, Bluetooth and GPS. This is a Dual Sim Handset with both sim slots supporting 4G LTE but you can only choose one to use as your default internet connection. USB-OTG is supported but XOS builtin file manager will not allow you to write on it. Installing ES Filemanager will of course solve this problem.
Last but not the least, Infinix Note 3 Pro is a heavy duty smartphone with its massive capacity 4500mAh battery. Full charge took about 2 and half hours but will last you a day or two of heavy to moderate usage of photography, games, data and social media.
We at Geekschicksten highly recommends Infinix Note 3 Pro for its entertainment qualities, balanced performance, photography capabilities and endurance. For 8,390 Pesos, it is one of the best we reviewed so far for its price range and can compete with even high priced smartphones with similar specifications. No wonder it was sold out during its first days of sale. So will you be getting this for Christmas? Look here:
