Design

HiSense Infinity F17 Pro

The Pro version has a Metal and Plastic mix body that’s very attractive. The first thing i noticed is the fingerprint scanner, not all budget smartphones come with the feature. At the top left corner, there’s a rear camera and a LED on a horizontal foundation.

Furthermore, it measures 8.7 mm in thickness, which is quite bulky even though it doesn’t have a massive battery. However, it weighs just 169g and should be very easy to operate with one hand as well. In terms of colours, you should be able to get it in Black and Gold colors.

It sports the trending full view display for users to experience the trending feature. However, the screen didn’t stretch up to the extreme end of the sides and the top and bottom bezel are still pretty much visible. There’s another HiSense logo at the top, like the one at the back isn’t enough.

The 5.45-inch HD+ IPS LCD capacitive touchscreen is pretty standard in terms of display. It boasts of 720 x 1440 pixels in resolution and 295 pixel per inch density for sharp and clear visuals. The screen has GFF Full Lamination Technology with a 2.5D curved glass, as it stretches up to 71% screen to body ratio.
