Both smartphones’ displays are of a 5.7″ IPS LCD make, and they are both good display specs even for an entry-level smartphone. What’s amusing is that they both follow the 18:9 screen aspect ratio trend that has been with most of the new smartphones in 2017. In terms of viewing experience, users will find them equally appealing if they are fond of watching videos since there is practically no difference between them.

CPU AND GPU

The Next Infinity bears a Snapdragon 425 while the Flare S6 Deluxe is built with a MediaTek MT6737 chip, both quite dated for 2017 devices. The former still has a better CPU performance based on paper and checking out the benchmark scores of the devices we previously reviewed carrying the same chip. In terms of gaming experience, the Flare S6 Deluxe has a slight advantage since it has more gaming potential than the Next Infinity.

CAMERA

Both smartphones have the same rear camera resolutions. The Next Infinity, however, could be a hit with the selfie folks as it sports a front camera of higher resolution. We do not have sample photos, but we will definitely capture images once we get our hands on the units.

There is only a little difference in their battery capacity. The Flare S6 Deluxe has a slightly higher capacity compared with the Next Infinity. As for battery life performance, expect that both smartphones will last almost the same time when tested.
