Canvas Infinity: Decent phone, sturdy design

Another highlight of Canvas Infinity is 16-MP front camera that comes with soft “selfie” flash and an aperture of f/2.0.

The company says that the device sports “Super Pixel” that can shoot multiple images at the same time and combine them to give you a higher-resolution image with more details.

The camera interface

Similar to the Moto G5, Canvas Infinity’s back can be removed to reveal two SIM card slots and a dedicated microSD card slot to expand memory up to 128GB.

“Smart Action” is a handy feature that lets the user call a contact by placing the phone close to the ear, wake and lock screen by double tap, flip the phone to mute or snooze alarm and more.

The phone supports smart gestures such as draw O to open the camera, M to launch music app and C for the phone.

Users can also choose from handy options such as Android Nougat’s split-screen feature.

“Canvas Infinity” is powered by a Snapdragon 425 chipset which is capable of handling day-to-day tasks.

There was no noticeable lag while browsing videos or running multiple applications during our review.

Canvas Infinity runs Android 7.1.2 Nougat OS that would update to the justlaunched Android 8 Oreo OS, the company said during the launch.

The customised UI looks like it has been “borrowed” from iOS. The phone’s recent apps have a card-based view which is quite like what we see on the iPhone. What does not work? The primary camera struggled while taking images in low light conditions. The photographs taken at night had noticeable noise.

The battery lasted less than a day when we used it rigorously to play videos, play games and browse the internet.

The 5.7-inch display loses some of its sharpness due to 720p HD only resolution. IANS
