Review
What’s up, guys! If you’re looking for a smartphone that balances sleek design, gaming-friendly hardware, and affordability, you might want to check out the Infinix Hot 50 Pro+. This new entry-level release has stirred some buzz for its price-to-performance ratio and honestly, after spending a few days with it, we can see why.
First Impressions & Design
Right out of the box, the Infinix Hot 50 Pro+ feels different. It’s incredibly slim at just 6.8mm and weighs only 162 grams. Combine that with its curved AMOLED display and you get a premium feel that’s rare in its price range.
We got the Titanium Gray version, and while it’s subtle, the frosted polycarbonate finish catches light in a really nice way. The back has a fresh look to make those square-shaped camera modules stand out compared to the usual circular cutouts we’re all used to.
And yes, the device is IP54-rated, which means it’s protected against dust and splashes. Not bad at all for a phone under €200.
Display & Audio: Punching Above Its Weight
The 6.78-inch AMOLED display is hands-down one of the highlights. With a 120Hz refresh rate, 1B colors, and 1300 nits peak brightness, the visuals are crisp, vibrant, and smooth. Watching videos, browsing, or even gaming feels great, especially considering that many phones at this price use LCD panels.
It’s also protected with Corning Gorilla Glass, which is rare for phones in this tier.
As for sound? You get dual stereo speakers tuned by JBL, and they’re surprisingly loud. There’s no 3.5mm jack, but with wireless earbuds becoming the norm, that may not be a dealbreaker anymore.
Performance: Built for Everyday Gaming
Now let’s talk internals. The Infinix Hot 50 Pro+ specifications include the MediaTek Helio G100 chipset, not the most powerful, but definitely capable for casual and mid-tier gaming. Paired with 8GB RAM and UFS 2.2 storage (128GB or 256GB), performance feels snappy for most tasks.
We played Wild Rift, Teamfight Tactics, and Genshin Impact. Games like Wild Rift ran smoothly at medium settings, but Genshin did push the phone to its limits, especially when things got intense on screen. You’ll want to keep settings on the lower side for smoother gameplay.
On benchmarks, we got:
- AnTuTu Score: 436,283
- GeekBench (v6): 1957
- 3DMark (Wild Life Extreme): 384
For the price, those are very respectable numbers.
Cameras: Better Than Expected
The camera setup includes a 50MP main shooter, a 2MP depth sensor, and what seems to be a placeholder or AI lens. On paper, it doesn’t sound exciting, but in practice? Pretty solid.
Daylight shots were surprisingly detailed, and even low-light performance was decent with minimal noise. The 13MP front camera also held up well for selfies and video calls, though colors leaned toward the saturated side.
There’s also Ultra Steady mode for video, and the phone records up to 1440p at 30fps. Again something we usually don’t see in this segment.
Bonus: there’s an AI eraser tool in the camera app that lets you remove background distractions. It’s not perfect, but it works well enough to be useful.
Software & UI Experience
The phone ships with Android 14 layered with XOS 14.5. It’s got some bloatware out of the box, but thankfully, most of it can be uninstalled. The UI is clean, colorful, and smooth, though not particularly standout compared to One UI or ColorOS.
Still, for day-to-day use browsing, messaging, multitasking it holds up well.
Battery Life: Decent With Fast Charging
Battery capacity sits at 5,000mAh, and it supports 33W wired charging plus 10W reverse wired charging.
- PCMark Battery Test: 13 hours 53 minutes
- Video Loop Test: 23 hours 8 minutes
In real-world use, it’ll get you through a full day comfortably. The charger gets you to 50% in about 25–30 minutes and 100% in just over an hour.
Connectivity & Extras
- Wi-Fi 5, Bluetooth, NFC, and USB-C are all here.
- Unfortunately, no 5G. That’s one corner they had to cut to keep the price low.
- There’s also an under-display fingerprint sensor, face unlock, and dual-SIM support with a dedicated microSD slot.
Verdict: Is It Worth It?
The Infinix Hot 50 Pro+ may not have everything, but it nails the essentials and then some. For under €200 (or around 8,000 PHP), you’re getting:
A gorgeous AMOLED display
Solid gaming performance
Decent cameras with features like Ultra Steady and AI tools
A premium, slim design
JBL stereo speakers
If you can live without 5G and want a daily driver that handles entertainment and light gaming like a champ, this phone is absolutely worth a look.
Final Thoughts
When it comes to Infinix Hot 50 Pro+ specifications, you’re getting a lot more than the price suggests. Infinix has clearly focused on areas that matter display, sound, and user experience making this device one of the strongest entries in the budget smartphone category this year.
