After teasing, the Infinix S2 Pro smartphone has finally arrived. It is an upgrade to the HOT S which was also impressive in terms of the technical specifications.
In this article, we will look at Infinix S2 Pro specifications, price in Kenya and some of the most outstanding features you get in this mid-range smartphone.

Design
Let’s clear off the dimensions first, at 148.9×72.1×8.07 mm the device can be considered slim. If you are moving from a thicker phone, you will obviously notice the big difference. However, for a true thin “feeling” I have found devices that are less than 7.5mm make the cut easily.
What really stands out here is the design. The phone is beautiful and feels premium on your hands.
The aluminum body further enhances the looks of the smartphone, so you’ve got premium phone here.
The S2 Pro smartphone easily fits in your palms and pockets since it has a compact aluminum frame, which also feels good when holding.
You’re probably sensitive about the color that you want your phone in, the S2 Pro comes in 5 options; midnight black, Orchid Gray, Coral Blue, Arctic Silver and Maple Gold.
What I’ve come to love about the company is that it has a wide variety of color options for you. Therefore, you can choose the colors according to your preference and personality.
Infinix S2 Pro Display
The smartphone comes with a 2.5D display. What this basically means is that, near the edges of the display, it curves just a little bit.
This is important because it leads to durability of the display glass.
Okay now, let’s get you into the technical specifications of the INFINIX S2 PRO Display. At 5.2 inches, the screen is just near the threshold that I consider difficult for one handed use.
The IPS LCD screen has a resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels. I wish Infinix would have done more with the resolution.
I personally feel like they are not doing anything to improve their screens. Also, the pixel per inch is 282, nothing much to write home about here.
Infinix S2 Pro Camera
This is one of the strongest feature of this device.
Rear Camera
In the rear camera, you get a 13MP lens. Let’s not dwell on this too much. But, expect some major improvements here.
Here, you get, faster auto-focus, improved LED Flash and a snappier and quick picture taking.
Selfie/Welfie Camera
Here is really where the Infinix S2 Pro throws some heavy punches. With the smartphone, you get a 13MP normal selfie camera, then also you are presented with an 8MP Welfie Camera.
In simple terms, this welfie simply means you can take wide angle group photos. I wish they stuck with the WIDE ANGLE naming. Anyway, let’s go with their Infinix S2 Pro welfie. Remove the Self in Selfie and replace it with Welf, then you get where the name originates.
135 degrees, that’s how wide the angle for the camera is. Also, the normal beautification features are bundled with the smartphone.
I would strongly recommend this smartphone for selfie lovers and amateur photographers. Plus those who want a phone with a large memory
Performance
Multi-Tasking
Infinix did not joke around when it comes to the Infinix S2 Pro performance. With 3GB of RAM, you can pretty much multi task without worrying about the phone lagging or becoming unresponsive.
You will easily switch between apps, even the ones that usually hog too much of the available RAM.
Processor Performance
Coming to the processor, it is a 1.3GHz Octa Core Cortex Chipset. What this means, is that you get more power efficiency and faster performance across the board.
In short, faster app launches and higher game frame rates.
When it comes to the OS, the Infinix S2 Pro runs Android 6.0 out of the box. However, here at Kenya Price we are hearing some chatter that the manufacture has plans to upgrade it to ANDROID 7.0 before the end of the year.
Battery
Another feature I love in Infinix phones is the battery saving capabilities. These phones are amongst the phone that are able to last the whole day on average usage.
Infinix S2 Pro battery capacity is 3000mAh. I would not really complain about this due to the reasons stated above.
Other specifications to note are;
- Dual SIM
- 4G Connectivity
- 32GB Internal memory
