Infinix's ultra-thin phone is called Hot 50 Pro+, specs revealed

Infinix is expected to launch a phone with a 6 mm-thick body based on the Hot 50 5G design. Today, a new leak shed more light on the device.

According to Passionategeekz, the phone is called Infinix Hot 50 Pro+ and measures 6.8 mm. It will be limited to LTE connectivity, as it will have a Helio G100 chipset.

It appears that the leak claiming the Infinix phone was under 6 mm was misleading. The Hot 50 Pro+ and its 6.8 mm profile are still impressive, as we haven't seen a thinner bar phone on the market for nearly half a decade. Interestingly enough, the last time we saw a sub-6 mm phone was again a Transsion device - the Tecno Camon 11.

The Hot 50 Pro will have an AMOLED screen with up to 120 Hz refresh rate, an under-display fingerprint scanner, and Gorilla Glass on top. It will have 8 GB RAM and 256 GB storage, and it looks like Infinix certified the phone for "5-year Performance TUV Fluency," whatever that means.

The source claimed the phone will launch in the Philippines and India soon, and we'll bring you the full details when that happens.

Oppo released the R5 in December of 2014. It, although being a slab phone, had a thickness of 4.9mm! Therefore, Infinix claiming 6.8mm of thickness being the world's slimmest design is verifiably false.

5.6mm, nearly no camera bump and it had a 3.5mm jack. Every time a company claimed they removed stuff because "thin", this phone came to mind.

Yup. why even bother making it thin with a huge camera bump? Hot series, hot junk, as I always say.
