After so many weeks of teasing an upcoming smartphone, Infinix has finally taken the wraps off the Infinix Zero 2 at a launch event in Lagos today. The device is now lightweight, slim and as tough as ever compared to its predecessors.
Commenting on the launch, Jonathan Doerr , Co-Managing Director Jumia Nigeria, said;
“What intrigues me about the Infinix Zero 2 is the fact that its reputation certainly precedes it. Even before its launch, the number of enquiries centered on the Next Hero has been awe-inspiring and I can confirm that the Infinix Zero 2 is actually a befitting and terrific sequel to its predecessor, the Infinix Zero.”
