The Infinix Hot 20S features a 6.78-inch Full-HD+ IPS TFT display with a resolution of 1,080 X 2,460 pixels and a variable refresh rate of up to 120Hz. Infinix calls it the HyperVision Gaming-Pro display. The company is trying to position the device as a gaming Android smartphone. The 8GB RAM can be extended to up to 13GB by using a small portion of the inbuilt storage.

The Infinix Hot 20S has a triple rear camera setup headlined by a 50MP primary sensor with two 2MP sensors. The device gets a quad rear flash setup for extra brightness. There's an 8MP front-facing camera with dual LED flash.

The dual-SIM Infinix Hot 20S packs a 5,000mAh battery with support for 18W fast charging. The device weighs 202 grams and runs Android 12. The rest of the notable hardware and sensors include 4G, Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, Bluetooth, USB type-C port, OTG, GPS, GPS/ A-GPS, and a side-mounted fingerprint scanner.

Considering the specifications, Inifinix has priced the Hot 20S very aggressively. The company is planning to launch the Infinix Hot 20 5G series in India on December 1. The series is expected to include Infinix Hot 20 5G and Hot 20 Play. Hence, the Infinix Hot 20S may not arrive in India. The Infinix Hot 20 series might compete with the Lava Blaze series.
