Infinix Note 50s 5G Goes on Sale in India at 12PM Today via Flipkart: Check Price, Specs, Offers

Infinix's latest 5G smartphone, the Note 50s 5G, officially hits the Indian market today via Flipkart, adding yet another option to the crowded mid-range smartphone segment. While specs like a curved AMOLED display and fast charging are becoming fairly standard, this phone stands out for a rather unexpected reason: it smells nice. Literally.

Let's dive into what this device offers and why Infinix is betting that a scented back panel could be your next reason to upgrade.

Pricing and Availability

The Infinix Note 50s 5G is available in two configurations:

• 8GB RAM + 128GB storage: ₹15,999

• 8GB RAM + 256GB storage: ₹17,999

These prices are without any bundled offers. If you're shopping with an ICICI Bank credit or debit card, you can get an additional ₹1,000 off. Sales begin at 12 PM today on Flipkart.

Three color options are up for grabs: Titanium Grey, Burgundy Red, and Marine Drift Blue.

Key Specs and Features

The device sports a 6.78-inch Full HD+ 3D curved AMOLED display with a 144Hz refresh rate and up to 1300 nits peak brightness. It's powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 7300 Ultimate chip, paired with 8GB RAM (plus virtual RAM) and XOS 15 based on Android 15. Infinix promises two years of OS updates and three years of security patches.

A 64MP rear camera handles photography (Sony IMX682 sensor) with 4K video recording and a 13MP front camera. Dual JBL-tuned stereo speakers, an in-display fingerprint scanner, and a 5500mAh battery with 45W fast charging round out the package.

The Scented Smartphone

What sets the Marine Drift Blue variant apart is 'Energizing Scent-Tech,' where the vegan leather back is infused with microencapsulated fragrance. The scent combines marine, lemon, lily of the valley, amber, and vetiver notes, designed to release gradually over time.

Whether this scented approach catches on remains to be seen, but it certainly adds a sensory element that few smartphones have explored.

Battery, Durability, and Connectivity

The 5500mAh battery supports 45W fast charging (full charge in about an hour) and 10W reverse charging. The phone is MIL-STD-810H certified for durability, with IP54 splash resistance and Gorilla Glass 5 protection.

Connectivity includes 5G (wide band support), dual 4G VoLTE, dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.4, and USB Type-C.
