That Infinix 8 is over 100k

But yeah, whatever you do, don't buy any phone with 2gb RAM except you plan to use just 7 important apps, deactivate android apps like drive and youtube, and use dark mode.. Also use opera browser / opera mini. No games, no snapchat . You can use IG lite, tiktok lite, FB lite and Gmail Go (deactivate the default app), you can use Telegram X (lite version)... Try not to use 4 apps at a time.
