Infinix debuts its new Note 60 series, featuring Snapdragon performance and а surprise on the camera island

 

Infinix Note 60 Pro: Snapdragon power for the first time in a while

The star of today's release is the Infinix 60 Pro, which stands out with a Snapdragon chip for the first time in many years. Powered by Snapdragon 7s Gen 4, the device should deliver 75% faster CPU performance and a massive 210% boost in GPU compared to the Note 50 Pro.

While not including a more contemporary chipset may look like a dealbreaker, it's still a decent SoC that maintains good performance while keeping the price affordable.

Infinix also pays attention to gaming. The Note 60 Pro is set to deliver high-frame-rate gaming, maintaining up to 120fps with popular titles like Mobile Legends: Bang Bang and Honor of Kings. To maintain responsiveness during long sessions, the device packs an upgraded 3D IceCore vapor chamber.

The display is another highlight. Boasting 1.5K resolution, a peak brightness of 4,500 nits, and a 144Hz refresh rate, the Note 60 Pro delivers excellent visuals in all settings. Add Gorilla Glass 7i protection and dual JBL speakers to the mix, and you've got a pretty well-rounded option.

Infinix Note 60: the accessible alternative

The Infinix Note 60 is a 5G device designed with a high-class metal frame, a 1.5K Ultra HDR screen, and a MediaTek Dimensity 7400 Ultimate chip for optimized performance. The MediaTek chip doesn't quite match the Snapdragon, it should be a suitable option for those seeking a budget device that doesn't feel sluggish.

Is the Note 60 series worth looking out for?

The Infinix Note 60 lineup sounds good on paper, but I'm not completely certain whether it'll be a true success. The truth is, smaller brands like Infinix have tough competition to beat.

Whether the Note 60 series is a winner will, in my opinion, depend on the price. If the price is affordable, it might just get a fighting chance.
