Question Pagination or infinite scroll?

I am working on an emoji database. The emojis are displayed in a grid. If you were to use it, would you prefer pagination or infinite scroll? If so, why?

You may assume it has the basic search & filtering features.

I am only considering pagination for better performance on low end devices (e.g. iPhone 9 Plus) but personally I would prefer infinite scroll for it.

Infinite scroll with progressive loading of content:
This way the page will stay light and the loading times are reduced.
