Infinix Philippines has just launched the first phone in the country this 2024 with a bang—the HOT 40 Pro. The Infinix HOT 40 Pro brings plenty of spec upgrades coming from the regular HOT 40 and the lower-end HOT 40i.
The device highlights an iPhone-like back
design in Starlit Black, Horizon Gold, Palm Blue, and Starfall Green colorways.
According to the firm, Starfall Green is a new color option that combines black
and green in a luminous, color-shifting blend, creating an aurora-like effect
reminiscent of a starlit sky.
The 6.78-inch display was also upgraded
from 90Hz to 120Hz refresh rate for a smoother experience. It also has the
Magic Ring tech on the top-center punch-hole that works like Apple's Dynamic
Island found on the iPhone 14 and up. Inside, the phone also now carries faster
MediaTek's 6nm Helio G99 octa-core processor with Mali-G57 MC2 GPU while
retaining its ample 8GB RAM, 256GB expandable internal storage, and 5,000mAh
large battery capacity with USB-C 33W fast charging.
For cameras, it was upgraded to 108MP
f/1.75 aperture paired with 2MP f/2.4 macro and an AI lens with f/2.0 aperture
size. In front, it uses a large 32MP f/2.2 snapper with dual LED flash that you
can use for selfies even in the dark. The handset also has a new Metamaterial
Antenna which promises a faster and more reliable signal performance with an
increase in File Download Speed by 68 percent, boosted signal strength by 6dB,
and reduced game latency by 36 percent.
The device also has a side-mounted fingerprint
reader, stereo speakers, Hi-Res Audio, dual-band WiFi, 4G LTE, Bluetooth, and
dual SIM slots. It runs with Android 13 OS with XOS 13.5 skin out of the box.
