Infinix is back in the premium midrange conversation with its new Note 60 lineup. The company is introducing two models, the Infinix Note 60 Pro and the standard Note 60. This time, the spotlight is clearly on the Pro. It marks the first Infinix phone since 2019 to run on a Snapdragon chip, signaling a shift in strategy.
The Infinix Note 60 Pro runs on the Snapdragon 7s Gen 4. This 4nm chip debuted last year. It comes with 8GB or 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. To handle heat, Infinix added a 4,758mm² 3D IceCore vapor chamber and a 0.36mm copper sheet. Together, they lower temperatures by up to 3°C during heavy gaming.
On the back, the Pro introduces something unusual. Infinix calls it the Active Matrix Display. This dot-style screen sits on the camera island. It shows notification icons and supports custom scrolling emojis and Pixel Pets. Users can even play mini games like Dot Dash and Star Blast.
Most users, however, will focus on the main display. The phone features a 6.78-inch OLED panel with 1,080 x 2,436px resolution. It supports a 144Hz refresh rate and reaches up to 4,500 nits peak brightness. PWM dimming helps control brightness levels. Gorilla Glass 7i protects the screen.
Audio also gets attention. JBL speakers sit at the top and bottom of the device. Infinix uses a high-strength aluminum alloy frame with curved edges for better grip.
Interestingly, Infinix revives a feature many brands dropped. The side-mounted fingerprint reader now tracks heart rate, heart rate variation, and blood-oxygen levels through the My Health app. On the opposite side, a one-tap button lets users switch modes, like Silent, or launch apps, such as the flashlight and SnapMemo.
For photography, the Pro packs a 50MP main camera with 0.8µm pixels and an f/1.59 lens. Optical image stabilization is included. The sensor supports 2x in-sensor zoom and 4-in-1 pixel binning to 12.5MP. An 8MP ultra-wide camera with a 112° field of view and f/2.2 aperture sits next to it. A flicker sensor is also present. The main camera records 4K video at 30fps.
Battery life is a major highlight. The Note 60 Pro carries a 6,500mAh battery, although some regions get a 6,000mAh unit. Infinix introduces Battery Self-Healing Technology here. It uses low current to repair micro-cracks inside the battery. The company claims it restores 1% battery health every 200 charge cycles. As a result, the battery should last at least 6 years under normal use.
On a full charge, the Pro plays video for up to 34 hours. The 6,000mAh version offers up to 31 hours. Navigation runs for up to 22 hours, or 20 hours with the smaller battery. The 90W wired charging system reaches 50% in 16 minutes and 100% in 41 minutes. The smaller battery hits 50% in 14 minutes and 100% in 35 minutes. In addition, the phone supports 30W wireless charging.
Software support looks solid. The device ships with Android 16 and XOS 16. Infinix promises 3 OS updates and 5 years of security patches. That means support will extend to XOS 19.
The Pro also includes an IR blaster and IP64 rain-proof protection. It features added drop resistance as well. Notably, the Torino Black version was designed in collaboration with Pininfarina.
The standard Infinix Note 60 takes a different route. It runs on the Dimensity 7400 Ultimate chip. The phone includes 8GB of RAM and either 128GB or 256GB of storage. MediaTek’s chip also works with a 3D IceCore vapor chamber for cooling.
Up front, the vanilla model keeps the same 6.78-inch OLED display. It offers a 144Hz refresh rate and 4,500 nits brightness. Gorilla Glass 7i remains in place. JBL stereo speakers are included as well. However, this version skips the Active Matrix Display. Instead, it features the Active Halo RGB LED light on the back.
Battery options vary by region again. The Note 60 carries a 6,500mAh battery in some markets and a 6,150mAh unit in others. Wired charging drops to 45W, while wireless charging stays at 30W. Like the Pro, the standard model uses a metal frame and carries an IP64 rating. It also includes an IR blaster.
