Infinix GT 50 Pro Delivers 144Hz Gaming Performance at $427, as Price Jumps From $328

Summary

  • Yanko Design says the GT 50 Pro remains a strong gaming phone, pairing a Dimensity 8400 Ultimate chip with a 6.78-inch 144Hz AMOLED display, GT triggers and a bundled MagCharge cooler.
  • An hour of Delta Force at top settings kept the review unit below 40C, while the 6,500mAh battery lasted a full day even with a couple of hours of gaming.
  • PHP 25,999 for 12GB/256GB and PHP 29,999 for 12GB/512GB make the phone notably pricier than the GT 30 Pro, whose comparable base model launched at PHP 19,999.
  • The review flags slightly muffled stereo speakers, a practical rather than ambitious camera setup led by a 50MP main sensor, and gains that feel incremental in a tougher market.
  • Infinix still adds longer-term value with Gorilla Glass 7i, IP64 protection, three Android OS updates and five years of security patches.
