Infinix Zero Flip Design, build quality, handling
Infinix Zero Flip has a solid clamshell design with no noticeable gaps or wobble when folded. Glass panels are protected by Corning with cover display using Gorilla Glass Victus 2. It comes in Rock Black and Blossom Glow.
Hinge lasts for 400,000 folds and lets the phone stay partially open for camera use.
However, it lacks an IP rating for water and dust resistance, unlike some competitors like Motorola Razr 50. The phone also has a faint crease on the internal display, but it’s barely noticeable in use.
The side-mounted fingerprint reader requires a swipe instead of a tap, but works fast after setup. 3.64-inch cover display is large and easy to use, though it has a plastic screen protector that can attract smudges.
Infinix Zero Flip Display, battery life, charging and speakers
Infinix Zero Flip has a 6.9-inch foldable OLED display with 120Hz refresh rate and a 1080x2640px resolution. It also features a 3.64-inch cover OLED display with 120Hz. The screen is bright, reaching 1000 nits in auto mode, and it supports HDR10 and HDR10+ for high-quality streaming.
4,720mAh battery provides good performance for video and web browsing, but gaming endurance is lower. It charges quickly, reaching 100% in 48 minutes with the 70W adapter.
Phone also has stereo speakers with clear channel separation, offering great loudness.
Infinix Zero Flip Software and performance
Infinix Zero Flip runs Android 14 with XOS 14.5 on top. It only gets two OS updates, so it won’t go beyond Android 16.
Powered by the Dimensity 8020 chipset, it delivers decent performance for everyday tasks but isn’t the fastest. In benchmarks, it performs better than the Motorola Razr 50 but lags behind the Galaxy Z Flip series. The cover screen is functional, allowing you to use apps like Google Maps and Gmail.
Infinix Zero Flip Camera quality
Infinix Zero Flip has three 50MP cameras: two on the outside (wide and ultrawide) and one inside for selfies. The rear cameras have good color and details, with the ultrawide capturing sharp images. Selfie camera also takes high-quality photos.
Main Camera: Great daylight photos with good colors and detail and decent 2x zoom.
Ultrawide Camera: Sharp and bright images, with little noise.
Selfies: Clear and detailed with good skin tones.
Low-light Photos: Main camera does well, but there’s some noise. Ultrawide camera is bright but less sharp.
Video: Records in 4K with both main and front cameras. Videos look good but detail can be soft and stabilization works better when still.
