The Infinix Hot 30 has a simple yet elegant design with a glass front, plastic frame, and plastic back. The immediate feeling when touching the phone is how graceful it looks. We got the Sonic White variant, and we just love how beautiful the shell reacts to light. However, this is where we realize where Infinix might have cut down on its cost. The frame around the phone is actually made of plastic but painted to look like metal. While it looks nice, this frame generally provides little protection to the phone when dropped. It measures 168.7 x 76.6 x 8.4 mm and weighs 196g, which is relatively light considering its large size.
The MediaTek Helio G88 chipset and octa-core CPU provide decent performance for everyday use. The SoC comes with 2 Cortex-A75 cores at 2 GHz and 6 Cortex-A55 cores at 1.8 GHz, paired with a Mali-G52 MC2 GPU. The device also has 8GB of LPDDR4X RAM and 256GB of internal storage. Infinix includes the option to extend up to 8GB worth of RAM with virtual RAM expansion. This sounds good, except that the storage used in the Infinix is the older generation EMMC, which is about three times slower (at least) than the more modern UFS memory. As virtual RAM expansion uses internal memory to serve as a swap partition or cache for RAM, slower internal storage generally gives little to no impact on user experience, if not made worse.
The Infinix Hot 30 comes with a 6.78-inch IPS LCD display with a 90Hz refresh rate and a resolution of 1080 x 2460 pixels. The display is also capable of reaching a peak brightness of 600 nits, and according to official specifications, it covers 96% of DCI-P3. With this amount of detail, it is a shame that Infinix did not get the phone HDR certified. We tried to install Netflix, but the app is not supported. Instead, we watched some shows with Prime Video. At 1080P FHD, the screen shows strong contrast in movies, and in scenes with strong differences between light and shadow, the Hot 30 is capable of displaying them flawlessly.
The main camera sensor is a Hynix Hi5021Q, which, as far as we can tell, is currently unique to the Infinix Hot 30. The sensor is a humble 1/2.55-inch with an f1.6 aperture and a 6-element lens. Thanks to the Helio G88, the camera is capable of shooting HDR and a great night mode. However, it is only capable of shooting 2k 30 Fps video instead of the common 4k. One interesting thing we noticed is that there is no simple photo mode when taking pictures. Infinix opted for an AI mode where AI decides what mode to apply according to the scene. Compared to the normal camera mode, the AI camera is significantly more ag
