Infinix Hot 20 5G Series India Launch Teased

The Infinix Hot 20 5G debuted globally back in October and is available in a few markets. Being the first 5G smartphone under the Hot lineup, it has been confirmed that the device will support 12 5G bands. Also, it could be one of the most affordable 5G smartphones in India as the Hot series phones are usually priced under ₹12,000 in the country.

Infinix Hot 20 5G Specifications

As the phone has already arrived in the global market, we know its specifications. To recap, the Infinix Hot 20 5G comes with a 6.6-inch FHD+ display with a 120Hz refresh rate. Under the hood, the device is equipped with the Dimensity 810 chipset teamed up with Mali G57 GPU, 4GB of RAM, and 128GB of storage space along with a microSD card slot and support for 3GB of virtual RAM.

Running Android 12 topped with XOS 10.6, the upcoming Infinix smartphone bestows a dual-camera setup at the rear, comprising a 50MP Samsung JN1 primary sensor and a 2MP secondary sensor alongside features such as Sleep Night Mode, Eye tracking Mode, and Portrait Mode. There is an 8MP selfie camera at the front within the waterdrop notch. A 5,000 mAh battery fuels the Infinix Hot 20 5G with support for 18W fast charging.

Will this Phone Disrupt the Budget Market?

Given the device will arrive on December 1 in the country and that 5G coverage is already available in a slew of cities across India, we can expect the Infinix Hot 20 5G to gain traction among price-conscious buyers. As it is a 5G offering and carries a price tag of €179 in the global markets, we can expect the Infinix Hot 20 5G to be priced under ₹15,000 in India. However, it remains to be seen if this affordable 5G phone will cause a stir in the market that is dominated by the likes of Redmi, Realme, and others.
