With the latest Infinix Hot 5 Oreo firmware, you can upgrade your Hot 5 device and have a taste of the Oreo experience.

Before the release of this update, Infinix already made it clear why it didn’t release the Oreo update for Hot 5 users. According to the company, the Infinix Hot 5 isn’t fully compatible with Oreo and although they tested Oreo on the Hot 5, it resulted in slow performance and rapid battery drain.

However, the company was able to make a final stable version but unfortunately, the update was only possible for users with X559C Hot 5 build. So, if you’re not using this version of Infinix Hot 5, you probably shouldn’t attempt to flash this update as it may result in a soft or hardbrick.
