2-minute Review [Positives]	Just like its elder sibling, the Infinix S5, the Lite model has a trendy punch-hole camera design (cheapest phone with punch-hole camera), with an excellent 90.5% screen-to-body ratio Looks good with a plastic body - the glossy back panel has a glittery finish, unlike the ‘Crystal Feather’ pattern on the Infinix S5 Reasonably light-weight Both the rear fingerprint sensor, and the face unlock, work well Large 6.6-inch, 20:9 aspect ratio, immersive display - ideally suited to watch videos The display quality is also quite decent for this price bracket - you get good brightness, good sunlight legibility, and vibrant colors Good performance with the MediaTek Helio P22 SoC under the hood (similar to Snapdragon 625) - day-to-day performance is smooth, and so is casual gaming - but heavier titles struggled to run at their ideal graphics settings Decent, triple camera setup at the rear: 16-megapixel primary sensor, a 2-megapixel depth sensor, and a low light sensor Primary camera clicks decent pictures in daylight conditions - it delivers almost natural-looking results and the HDR mode makes the shots even better The 16-megapixel front camera produces usable selfies as long as you avoid using the Beauty mode Good battery life with a 4000mAh battery - will give you about 1.5 days of usage on moderate use	Pleasant, refreshing design - back is textured similar to other budget realme phones, there is also a strip coming down the square-shape camera module, which adds a bit of charm to overall look Front has a similar affair with a dew-drop notch and thin bezels The patterned back almost completely eliminates the chances of getting fingerprints or smudges - it also adds a lot of grip and gives the phone a very solid, sturdy feel Face recognition is quick to unlock the smartphone in different lighting conditions Large, 6.5 inch IPS display with HD+ resolution - the colors are vibrant with a decent amount of sharpness Sunlight legibility is also good - the display gets bright enough for comfortable outdoor use The Realme C11 comes with Realme UI based on Android 10 which is much more streamlined and clean compared to previous realme phones - it still packs a lot of useful features like Dark mode, Focus mode, Game Space and Personal Information Protection Decent dual camera setup for the price - a 13MP primary shooter + a 2MP depth sensor The main camera can click photos with good details in bright light - photos have a lot of details, colours have a punch, come out well even when shot against a direct light source, thanks to the HDR and chroma boost The portrait shots look good, and the edge detection is decent as well The 5MP front camera can shoot decent selfies - the portrait mode works for the front camera as well, bringing out a more aggressive bokeh effect than the one produced by the dedicated sensor at the back Decent video recording quality, with a option to shoot slow motion videos Uses the old MicroUSB plug, while the competition has started offering USB Type-C in the budget segment Impressive battery life with a big 5000 mAh battery - it lasts for two full days on a single charge with moderate usage Realme C11 is worth buying as long as your usage is basic - it has a good display that produces bright colours, cameras manage to deliver beautiful shots and the battery the can last days
2-minute Review [Negatives]	One-handed usage is not very easy - reaching the top edge of the display is quite hard Lacks an ambient light sensor - so you will need to adjust brightness manually While Infinix's custom XOS UI is relatively easy to get around, it does pack a ton of bloatware - some of it can be uninstalled - but there's Palm Store and AHA Games, neither of which can be uninstalled - and they send spammy notifications, that can't be disabled Portraits shots aren't that great - subject detection and background blur could have been better (competing phones like the Redmi 8 are much better) Low light performance is average The supplied 6W charger is on the slower side (compared to the 10W with Infinix S5 and other competitors) - takes over 4 hours to charge the phone completely The Infinix S5 Lite is a decent smartphone, but doesn't stand high among the competitors - for the same price, Redmi 8 offers better camera, larger battery and fast charging - and if you can spend a little more, then Xiaomi’s Redmi Note 8 and the Realme 5 are solid options	A bit heavy, at 196g There is no Widevine L1 certification which means that you cannot enjoy HD content on Netflix and Amazon Prime There's still some bloatware that comes pre-installed Performance of the realme C11 is strictly average - the apps begin to lag when you try browsing the internet and running apps in the background simultaneously - as far as gaming is concerned, it is capable of handling light games only such as Temple Run, Candy Crush etc Low light photos are average, as expected, they lack detail and aren't very sharp Charging is on the slower side with the 10W charger - it takes over 3 hours to charge the smartphone completely If you're looking for a good performing phone with all other bells and whistles, there's the realme C3 as alternative
