Buying advice for Algeria

Both Infinix Hot 40 and Infinix Hot 40i are sold in Algeria, but they fit different priorities.

Infinix Hot 40i is 5% cheaper at 19,000 DZD versus 20,000 DZD for the Infinix Hot 40, leaving room for accessories or a longer screen-protection plan.

At this price you should expect 4G across Algerian networks (Mobilis, Djezzy, Ooredoo) and basic 60-90Hz screens.
