Infinix HOT 60 5G Display

The Infinix HOT 60 5G boasts an expansive 6.7-inch HD+ IPS display, providing a silky-smooth 120Hz refresh rate a luxury usually reserved for much higher-end devices at such a low price. Its 700-nit (HBM) peak brightness guarantees good outdoor visibility and an adequate multimedia experience. Scrolling through apps, gaming, or video watching, all benefit from high refresh rates for smooth transitions and improved visual responsiveness.

Performance

The MediaTek Dimensity 7020 chipset, a solid mid-range 5G chip, powers the HOT 60 5G. The processor provides capable performance for daily multitasking, gaming, and streaming. Coupled with LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 2.2 storage, the device provides quicker data reading speeds and optimized memory management, improving app launch times and responsiveness. With the efficient hardware pairing, users can enjoy a smooth experience while switching between apps.

Camera

Optics-wise, the HOT 60 5G has a 50MP main camera, which should provide sharp, high-resolution images in good light. For snapping landscapes, portraits, or everyday scenes, the camera is intended to deliver social-media-friendly shots. On the front, for selfies and video calls, there is an 8MP front camera that sits in a stylish punch-hole cutout, providing acceptable quality for daily use.

Long-Lasting Battery

The phone features a 5200mAh battery that can easily last an entire day of average use. Whether streaming, browsing, gaming, or just making calls, users have the reassurance of this battery keeping up with their mobile lifestyle. Infinix also throws in support for 18W wired fast charging to ensure faster top-ups whenever needed.

Android 15 Experience with Infinix XOS

One of the most notable aspects of the HOT 60 5G is that it comes with the newest Android 15, topped with Infinix's proprietary XOS UI. The user gets access to the latest Android features, heightened privacy controls, and better system fluidity. The company's attention to keeping up-to-date with software trends in the budget segment is appreciated.

Smart Connectivity and Functional Add-ons

When it comes to connectivity, the HOT 60 5G has WiFi 5, Bluetooth 5.4, and dual 5G SIMs, making it a device with a future-proof setup. But it is actually the practical and friendly add-ons that make the device stand out. It comes with a Remappable AI Button, so users can assign shortcuts to easily access their preferred apps or functions. There’s also an IR Blaster, useful for controlling compatible home appliances like TVs and air conditioners. With expandable storage support up to 2TB, users need not worry about running out of space.

Slim and Stylish Design with IP64 Protection

While fitting a big battery and feature-laden hardware, the HOT 60 5G is still slim and light. It's just 7.8mm thick and weighs 193 grams, making it easy to handle and carry. To its credit, there's also the IP64 rating for dust and light water splash resistance – a welcome addition at this price.

There are four stylish colors to choose from:

• Caramel Glow

• Sleek Black

Each color version is created to suit various user preferences, from muted to bright.
