Android One is a Google initiative that’s been around since 2014, but the goal of the program has changed since it launched. However, it still remains an important part of Google’s strategy of bringing a cleaner, more consistent Android experience to more people around the world. Enter the Infinix Note 5, Ugandans have a good chance to use Google’s newest software on a budget.
Infinix Note 5 has Android One
Infinix Mobility was one of the first African phone suppliers to embrace Android One on their Hot 2 device. However, for a variety of reasons, Android One never really seemed to take off as designed. And the Hot 2 didn’t register much success.
Today in 2018, Android One means something entirely different. Android One phones are no longer exclusively low-end or entry-level. Instead, Google is partnering with bigger brands for more reasonable phones. Today’s Android One phones are better in every way than the original Android One phones, but built on the same philosophy.
Here’s what you need to know about Android One on the Infinix Note 5 , and what makes it a really, really big deal.
Why Android One?
A clean Android Experience
The Infinix Note 5 provides a clean, pure, Google-sanctioned software experience. You won’t have a bunch of annoying manufacturer or carrier software customisation. No bloatware, no nonsense, just pure Android ready to play. For the first time in many years, you actually get the power to decide what apps to install on your device. The Note 5 operates just how Nexuses and the darling Pixel phones do. They have all of Google’s apps built in, and Google makes sure that the software operates to a high standard. Perhaps most importantly for a less-expensive phone, Google also guarantees two years of software updates.
A phone that works smarter for you
The Infinix Note 5 has the latest AI-powered innovations from Google built in. That means they can auto-adjust to your needs and help get things done more easily throughout your day.
Infinix Note 5 has Google Assistant, always ready to help. Android One makes it easy for you to find answers and get things done on-the-go with help from your Google Assistant. Just say “Hey Google” and ask away.
Explore your photos with Google Lens
With Google Lens, you can search what’s in a shot to learn more or take action. It’s easy to get answers, look up information, or copy and paste text, all right from a photo. The Note 5 comes ready to rock.
Longer battery stamina
The Infinix Note 5 comes with a 4,500mAh battery. This already huge power on its own. However, Android One prioritizes background activity for your most important apps. This means that your phone will even reduce power usage while it’s in your pocket or purse. The Note 5 will then give you a mouth watering 3 days of battery.
Your phone, fortified
With monthly security updates and Google Play Protect built in, Android One devices are among the most secure. Google Play Protect actively scans and verifies over 50 billion apps per day, and uses Google’s machine learning to dynamically prevent viruses and malware. Rest assured that your Android One Infinix Note 5 is as secure as a fortress. Security protections are built into every layer of your Note 5. Therefore, your device stays safe, fast, and performs at its best.
A simply amazing experience
When Google’s intuitive software meets Infinix’s high quality hardware, you get a remarkable phone experience. Android One is easy to use and comes with only the essential apps, not to mention free unlimited photo storage. Consequently, you get to store all your photos.
Storage stress solved
With a small, curated set of pre-loaded apps, Android One gives you more storage to use however you want. And for all your memories, you automatically get unlimited high-quality photo storage for free from Google Photos. The Infinix Note doesn’t come with unwanted apps that take up your internal space.
Effortlessly search and share memories
With Google Photos, you can search just like you would on Google with terms like “Mom”, “Mexico” or “sunset.” Google Photos will then select the right pictures based on your search and suggests who may want to see them.
Wrap Up
The beauty of the Infinix Note 5 Android One phone is it appeals to both novices who want the simplicity of the experience and enthusiasts who understand the value of having Google-backed software. It is great for someone who just wants a smartphone to do the basics, but also someone who appreciates a Google Pixel 2 and just wants to spend a bit less.
