Last Year December 2015, we witness the launched of two great smartphones from Infinix which is the Infinix Note 2 and Infinix Zero 3. Both smartphones are fantastic and really built to improve the technology market. Recently I received calls from our beloved readers asking which is preferable among the Note 2 and the Zero 3. Though I can't really say anyone is better than the other because it only depends on what purpose you want to buy the smartphone for and the type of specs you want as well. For example someone that like snapping photo would prefer a smartphone with sharp and clear camera compared to someone that likes using the phone to browse and play games.
