    • The Infinix S4 has no physical front-facing LED flash. The selfie camera does all the magic. It has an AI feature that helps take amazing photos. It is more like saying the front facing flash is in the selfie camera. It is a new Tech we see these days in Nigeria

    • 1.If you look out the Infinix S4 design properly, you will notice that there is no way a LED notification can fit in, Infinix had to apply some wisdom there.
      2. You can adjust the brightness to suit your preferred taste via activating some settings options

    • The Infinix S4 have no physical flashlight but rather screen flash that works automatically by identifying different scenes and adjusting brightness to work as fine. You need no app because there is no flash, just make your video calls and allow the camera to do the work
