"The Infinix Hot 8 will be a budget offering priced under Rs 10,000 and a successor to Infinix Hot 7 smartphone"
Infinix Hot 8 could be the upcoming smartphone from the sub-brand of Hong Kong-based Transsion Holdings in India. Ahead of its release, a couple of retail box images of the Infinix Hot 8 have surfaced online. The images reveal the front profile of the handset, which seems to have a waterdrop-notch display -- just like its predecessor - Infinix Hot 7. The phone will also offer 4G LTE connectivity and 4GB RAM + 64GB storage configuration. Furthermore, 91mobiles has learned from industry sources that Infinix Hot 8 launch in India will happen later this month, and its price could be under Rs 10,000.

The latter was launched last month in the country at Rs 7,999 for 4GB of RAM and 64GB of expandable native storage. The phone comes in Midnight Black, Aqua Blue, and Mocha Brown shades and is available for sale in the country via Flipkart.

At the handset's core lies an octa-core MediaTek Helio P25 processor paired with handset comes with 4GB of RAM and 64GB storage.
