Infinix Hot 60i Gets a 5G Model With Battery Upgrade for Under $110

Infinix has released the 5G variant of its Hot 60i smartphone, building on the July launch of the 4G model. The new version introduces faster connectivity, a bigger battery, and modest changes to the display and camera setup.

Design and Display

The Hot 60i 5G features a 6.75-inch HD+ LCD with a 120Hz refresh rate and a peak brightness of up to 670 nits. Instead of a punch-hole cutout like the 4G model, it uses a dated waterdrop notch to house the selfie camera.

While the panel retains the same dimensions, the shift in design slightly alters the viewing experience. The Hot 60i 5G is available in four colors: Shadow Blue, Sleek Black, Monsoon Green, and Plum Red.

Internals and Software

Under the hood, the phone is powered by MediaTek’s Dimensity 6400 SoC. It features 4GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage, with support for up to 2TB of additional storage via microSD. The device runs Android 15 out of the box with Infinix’s XOS 15.1 skin. Features like Infinix AI and a side-mounted fingerprint scanner are also included.

Cameras

The rear setup features a 50MP main sensor, while the purpose of the secondary sensor remains unspecified, likely a depth or AI-enhanced lens. On the front, Infinix has downgraded the camera from 8MP in the 4G version to 5MP in the 5G model.

Battery and Pricing

The device is backed by a 6,000 mAh battery, a notable increase over the 4G model’s 5,160 mAh. Charging speed, however, drops to 18W, compared to 45W in the previous model. It also supports 10W reverse wired charging.

The Hot 60i 5G is priced at around $105.
