There are two primary sources for obtaining the firmware:
Where the firmware shows its budget origins is in the update cycle. While Infinix promises two major Android upgrades and three years of security patches, the firmware update mechanism is less seamless than competitors. Updates are delivered over-the-air (OTA), but the rollout is region-dependent, and the patch notes are often vague. Furthermore, the firmware includes what users call "bloatware"—pre-installed apps like XClub and Bee —which are difficult to remove without ADB commands. These additions, likely subsidized by third-party partnerships, clutter the firmware experience, though Infinix has improved by making most of them uninstallable rather than merely disable-able in recent builds.
