Infinix is back with another budget banger, and this one’s looking to punch way above its price tag. Meet the Hot 60 5G+, a phone that’s priced under ₹11,000 but doesn’t exactly play by budget phone rules.
The unboxing experience
The outer sleeve screams gamer vibes with its flashy green finish, but peel that off and the main box goes a bit darker and more subdued. Inside, it’s pretty standard stuff: the phone, an 18W charging brick, USB-A to Type-C cable, a clear hard case, SIM ejector, and the usual paperwork. Nothing fancy here, but hey, it’s a sub-11K phone—we’ll let that slide.
Design-wise, it's kinda fire
At just 7.8mm thin and 193g, this thing feels sleek and solid in the hand. The Tundra Green variant looks super clean, and those copper accents around the camera? Chef’s kiss. The plastic back doesn’t feel cheap either—it’s actually built like a tank. You also get IP64 dust and splash protection and a physical shortcut key for quick access to stuff.
Powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 7020, the Hot 60 5G+ comes with 6GB RAM and 128GB storage (expandable up to 2TB!). Infinix is even promising 90fps gaming in BGMI, which is wild for this price.
Display and software? Solid
You get a 6.7-inch HD+ IPS LCD panel with a 120Hz refresh rate—smooth enough for your daily scrolls and gaming. It runs on XOS 15 based on Android 15 and includes AI tools and the Folax personal assistant.
Camera and battery? Pretty good actually
A 50MP rear shooter and 8MP selfie cam handle casual photography just fine. There’s no OIS or front autofocus, but for this price? Totally fair. The 5,200mAh battery with 18W fast charging and 10W reverse charging is a pleasant surprise—and yes, the 3.5mm headphone jack lives.
For under ₹11K, this phone’s got looks, power, and even gaming chops. Budget king material? Could be.
