After introducing the Infinix Hot 60i 4G variant earlier this year, Infinix is now gearing up to bring its 5G counterpartto the Indian market. The Transsion-owned brand has already started teasing the device, signaling an imminent launch before the end of August 2025. This model is positioned for budget-conscious consumers who want modern connectivity, dependable performance, and long battery life without breaking the bank.
Display and Design
The Infinix Hot 60i 5G is expected to sport a 6.7-inch IPS LCD display with an HD+ resolution (720 × 1600 pixels). Although it doesn’t match the pixel density of higher-end devices, Infinix compensates with a 120Hz refresh rate for smoother animations and scrolling, along with 700 nits of peak brightness for better outdoor visibility. The phone’s design will likely follow the sleek, modern look of its 4G sibling, with a sturdy build and an IP64 rating for dust and splash resistance.
Performance
-
4G variant: MediaTek Helio G81 Ultimate processor
-
5G variant: MediaTek Dimensity 6400 SoC (new and more efficient)
The new Dimensity chipset promises a notable jump in speed, efficiency, and network performance. Users will have up to 8GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage, expandable via microSD card up to 1TB, which is impressive for a budget phone. The device will run on Infinix’s XOS 15 based on Android 15, bringing a modern software experience right out of the box.
Camera System
The Hot 60i 5G will come with a dual rear camera setup:
-
50MP primary sensor with an f/1.8 aperture
-
2MP secondary sensor for depth or macro shots
On the front, there’s an 8MP selfie camera with an f/2.0 aperture. Both camera setups support features like dual-LED flash, HDR, and panorama modes, aiming to deliver versatile photography options in this price range.
Battery and Charging
The 4G variant is equipped with a 5,160mAh battery and 45W fast charging. The 5G variant steps up with a 6,000mAh battery — designed for a 5-year lifespan rated at 1,800 charge cycles. While Infinix hasn’t officially confirmed fast charging speeds for the 5G model, the large battery ensures excellent endurance, making it an ideal choice for heavy users.
Special Features
What sets the Hot 60i series apart in the budget segment are its unique add-ons:
-
UltraLink: Allows calls and messaging outside cellular coverage by connecting to nearby phones (up to 500m away).
-
Hard Gyro Sensor: For precise motion control in gaming and accurate navigation in weak GPS zones.
-
