Helio G99….. what a joke. They could’ve used a better ChipSet.

LOL at people cribbing about longer software support.
As far as the chipset goes, G99 is not bad at all. A76 cores are pretty decent and represented a big upgrade from what came before it. In terms of IPC, A76 provides roughly 70% of what A720 provides, and therefore the single core performance of G99 is around 50-60% of latest mid-range processors such as Snapdragon 7 Gen 4, Exynos 1580 and Dimensity 8350.
In my view, A76 based phones should be okay for a few years for basic tasks.

One day ago these same people they defend itel using Unisoc T1700 all small core soc, now they think G99 is too weak. Just get used with their hypocrisy.

That… moreAm from Africa, we use Infinix and tecno for long time more than any Continent. They have adware and bloat ware it’s a fact, you can sugar coating it but it’s true.
Phoenix browser come pre installed and will bomb you ads time to time, they are official partner of Infinix and Tecno. The worst case is those malware which get root access and install themselves as system apps, no way to remove them other than flashing new rom. Backdoor is from Tecno/infinix themselves.
Just simple search Google “Tecno triada” that’s one of malware which was pre installed in their phones around 2020.

That’s way more than the absolutely 0 experience the other person has with Infinix, yet they think it’s full of bloatware and bugs, when that’s just not true, and I’m pretty sure having used multiple devices from them during multiple years is well over enough to know whether XOS is full of bugs and bloatware, or not.

Working well and lasting well is not something new with the budget class phones.
It’s not like the other cheap brands phones dont last long or work well for the specs they come out with as expected on how these will run.
If a phone come out with A15 and get like 1 OS update then that phone should realistically last you also 6 years plus 1-2 years when most apps lose support on the old Android number. Like these use to lose support with something 6 to 7 generations old android number. Even tough the phones or tablets will still be useful as you still can make calls and browse the internet while even play some simple games that start up for a minute or few
A lot in here complain about bad OS Skin but never used the phones with it but always talk about it as a bad optimization and so on. It’s what people talk in the internet that is causing the opinion and not the experience. Well you also need to be a serious geek who is in advanced mode with every phone and like to tweak the phones to actually talk about the optimization and stuff

I’m replying to you on a 7 year old Redmi Note 5 Pro with a Snapdragon 636. Browsing sites like gsmarena and watching YouTube is all fine. It’s no good for 3D games, but that’s outside the scope of basic use.
