Packing a 50-megapixel front camera with 2K video recording capabilities, a beautifully 3D curved AMOLED 120Hz display, 108MP rear camera, the all-new Infinix ZERO 30 satisfies the desire among young people to move beyond selfie photography, to produce more self-expressive, high-quality, cinematic vlogs.

Dual View mode lets users simultaneously capture the action from both front and rear cameras, while Sky Remap offers the ability to alter and adjust the weather.
