Infinix Hot S
Approx. Price
USD 55
A compact and stylish pioneer of the S-series, featuring a metal build and a dedicated selfie flash.
The Infinix Hot S (X521) was the first in the S-series, focusing on a compact design and lifestyle features. Its 5.2-inch IPS display makes it very easy to use with one hand, a rarity in today’s world of giant screens. The metal body gives it a more premium feel than many other budget phones from its era. A key highlight is the 8MP front-facing camera which comes with its own LED flash, designed for clear photos in low-light settings. While its 2GB of RAM and Mediatek MT6753 processor are strictly for basic tasks like messaging and light browsing in 2026, the inclusion of a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner adds a layer of modern security. It’s a nostalgic yet functional choice for someone seeking a small, 4G-enabled secondary device.
