Infinix Zero 4 (a.k.a. Infinix X555) is the fourth generation member of the Infinix Zero series. It is an incremental upgrade compared to its predecessor, the Infinix Zero 3, with upgrades on software and camera. Though, the rear camera of the Infinix Zero 4 dropping from 20.7 megapixels to 16 megapixels may seem like a downgrade, the introduction of Optical Image Stabilisation and Laser autofocus more than makes up for it. The true upgrade to the Zero3 is the more premium Infinix Zero 4 Plus.

It is not very often that you find a smartphone that strikes the right balance between performance, build quality, and affordability. UMi Plus is one smartphone that I can boldly say excels in all three fronts. Umi has learnt a lot from its earlier offerings like the Umi Max and Super and the Umi Plus seems to be a statement to that effect.
For me the build quality is one of the highlights of the Umi Plus. The metal unibody is simply gorgeous for its price. The Android smartphone also excels in performance with a fluid experience.
