Infinix Mobile brings the Infinix S2 PRO to Indonesia

“Around 93 million pictures are shared each day, most of them telling different stories. However, the problem is that it is really hard to get the ‘whole’ picture. We solved this problem with the first ever 135-degree ultra-wide angle lens applications in the world, for the Infinix S2 PRO,” said Infinix Mobile Southeast Asia (SEA) regional head Marcia Sun.

The Infinix S2 PRO comes with dual front cameras -- an 8-megapixel camera with a 135-degree wide angle lens and a 13-megapixel one -- and a 13-megapixel rear camera.

The device is powered by octa-core Cortex 1.3GHz, 64bit processor. The 5.2-inch IPS high-definition display is covered with 2.5D glass and the phone has a solid metal body.

“Customers are always looking for the best mobile technology and Infinix S2 PRO’s great features will be available exclusively to all our consumers in Indonesia,” said Lazada Indonesia co-chief executive officer Duri Granziol.

There will only be 1,000 units for sale initially. If demand is sufficiently high and production figures match them the Infinix S2 PRO may be sold through flash sales, open sales, offline sales. It may also be available in two additional colours -- Sunset Pink and Champagne Gold.

“We are aiming for the online market and are not rushing to push sales because we need to see the demand from users and the development of sales. We will see what the market prefers,” Sun says.

“We can see that the online community is growing, especially in Indonesia, which is why we want to reach out to this market first.

“Since Lazada is able to deliver to most areas in Indonesia, this will create opportunities for Lazada to expand in terms of products and user testimonials for Infinix Mobile,” Infinix Indonesia marketing manager Eko Susanto says.
