Infinix GT 50 Pro

The Infinix GT 50 Pro is finally official, bringing several upgrades over last year’s GT 30 Pro. The new gaming phone gets a larger battery, a more powerful chipset, and, most importantly, a dedicated liquid cooling system for better thermal management during demanding gaming sessions.

However, Infinix has also made an unusual downgrade in the camera department by replacing the 108MP primary sensor on the GT 30 Pro with a 50MP camera. Despite that, the GT 50 Pro adds OIS, improved cooling, faster storage, and longer software support.

In this article, we take a closer look at the Infinix GT 50 Pro, including its design, display, performance, gaming features, cameras, battery, specifications, and the official Infinix GT 50 Pro price in Nepal.

Infinix GT 50 Pro Overview

Design and Display

The Infinix GT 50 Pro retains the boxy design language of its predecessor. However, the new model weighs 198 grams, making it around 10 grams heavier than the GT 30 Pro. This difference should not feel particularly noticeable during everyday use.

Infinix has also retained the RGB lighting on the rear, which remains one of the phone’s signature gaming features. The company has added a transparent section toward the bottom of the back panel, giving users a glimpse of the phone’s internal liquid-cooling hardware.

For durability, the GT 50 Pro carries an IP64 rating, which provides protection against dust and water splashes.

On the front, the phone features a 6.78-inch AMOLED display with a 1.5K resolution of 2644 x 1208 pixels. The panel supports a variable refresh rate from 30Hz to 144Hz, allowing it to deliver smoother animations and gameplay while helping conserve battery when a high refresh rate is unnecessary.

The display can reach 1,600 nits of HBM brightness, which should make it easier to view outdoors. It can also reach a peak brightness of up to 4,500 nits for HDR content.

The panel is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 7i.

Performance and Software

Powering the Infinix GT 50 Pro is the MediaTek Dimensity 8400 Ultimate, a 4nm chipset that uses an all-big-core CPU architecture. Infinix positions it as an upper-mid-range processor with performance approaching flagship territory.

According to Infinix, the GT 50 Pro scores 1,808,355 points in AnTuTu 11. For comparison, the Dimensity 8350 Ultimate scores around 1,538,799 points. So, while the raw performance improvement over the GT 30 Pro is noticeable, it is not a massive generational leap.

The bigger upgrade comes from the phone’s thermal management.

Infinix has replaced the GT 30 Pro’s passive cooling approach with its new HydroFlow Liquid Cooling Architecture. The system uses an active micro-pump circulation mechanism to improve heat dissipation across a total area of 6,437mm².

The company has also incorporated a bladeless piezoelectric plate that generates high-pressure airflow inside the phone. In addition, the GT 50 Pro features a large 7,700mm² vapor chamber to further control temperatures during demanding workloads.

Infinix also offers an external cooling accessory for users who want additional thermal management during extended gaming sessions.

With this combination of the Dimensity 8400 Ultimate chipset and upgraded cooling system, Infinix claims the GT 50 Pro can support 144fps gaming in titles such as Arena Breakout, Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, Blood Strike, Standoff 2, Call of Duty Mobile, and Free Fire.

However, actual gaming performance will vary depending on the game, graphics settings, session length, and ambient temperature.

The phone comes with 12GB of LPDDR5X RAM and up to 512GB of UFS 4.1 storage. Storage is not expandable via a microSD card.

On the software side, the GT 50 Pro runs XOS 16 based on Android 16. Infinix promises three major Android upgrades and five years of security updates. That is an improvement over the GT 30 Pro, which received two major Android updates and three years of security patches.

Dual Pressure-Sensitive Gaming Triggers

Gaming remains the primary focus of the GT 50 Pro, and Infinix has upgraded its dual pressure-sensitive zones.

The triggers now support up to eight mapping points and 10 levels of adjustable pressure sensitivity. This allows gamers to assign different actions depending on how lightly or firmly they press the triggers.

You can customize the controls to suit different games and swap the functions of the left and right triggers when needed.

The pressure-sensitive zones also have uses outside gaming. You can use them to control camera zoom, take screenshots, start screen recordings, and perform other shortcuts.

Infinix provides these customization options through its XArena gaming application.

Cameras

The camera department is where the GT 50 Pro takes an unusual step backward.

Infinix has replaced the 108MP primary camera found on the GT 30 Pro with a 50MP f/1.8 main sensor. While the lower-resolution sensor may look like a downgrade on paper, the new camera gains optical image stabilization (OIS).

OIS should help improve image stability, particularly when shooting handheld photos in low light or recording video while moving.

The main camera is accompanied by an 8MP ultrawide camera, while the front houses a 13MP selfie camera.

So, although the megapixel count has dropped, the addition of OIS could make the primary camera more practical for everyday photography and video recording.

Battery and Charging

The Infinix GT 50 Pro gets a substantial battery upgrade. It packs a 6,500mAh battery, which is roughly 20% larger than the battery inside its predecessor.

The phone supports 45W wired charging and 30W wireless charging. It also supports reverse charging, with up to 10W wired and 5W wireless output.

Infinix has also included bypass charging, allowing power to go directly to the phone instead of continuously charging the battery during gaming. This can help reduce battery heat and potentially improve battery longevity during extended gaming sessions.

Wireless bypass charging requires the Infinix GT MagCharge Cooler 2.0, which is sold separately.

Audio and Other Features

The GT 50 Pro also brings Dolby Atmos spatial audio. While the feature may not transform the phone into a dedicated gaming audio system, it can provide better directional audio cues in supported games and media.

For security, the phone uses an optical in-display fingerprint scanner.

Connectivity options include dual-SIM support, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.4, USB Type-C, 4G LTE, and 5G connectivity.

At this price, the GT 50 Pro targets users looking for a gaming-focused smartphone with a high-refresh-rate AMOLED display, Dimensity 8400 Ultimate chipset, advanced liquid cooling, pressure-sensitive gaming triggers, and a large 6,500mAh battery.

Overall, the GT 50 Pro focuses more on sustained gaming performance and thermal management than on camera specifications. The move from a 108MP camera to a 50MP sensor may disappoint some users, but the addition of OIS, improved cooling, a larger battery, faster UFS 4.1 storage, and longer software support makes the phone a significant upgrade in several other areas.
