Infinix has released a couple new
entry-level smartphones, and these are
no doubt the thinnest smartphones we’ve
seen in this segment so far. Meet the
Infinix Hot 60 Pro with a frame that’s a
mere 6.6 mm thin. There’s also the Hot
60 Pro Plus variant that goes even
thinner, measuring 5.95 mm, which is
insane for an entry-level phone. In
today’s video though, we’re focusing on
the nonplus version. But aside from
having an insanely thin profile, what
else does the Infin Hot 60 Pro bring to
the table? Let’s find out in this full
review. I’m your host Earl and let’s
dive right in.
Starting with the design, the Infinix
Hot 60 Pro sports a minimalist look. Our
unit is in titanium silver colorway, and
no, it’s not actually made of titanium.
Features an all plastic built instead.
Unlike the Hot 60 Pro Plus version with
curved sides, this guy opts for a flat
edge design. Taking a closer look at the
rear, the panel used here has a slight
texture, which is kind of like
sandlasted to the touch. This make it
less prone to smudges. Although with a
phone this thin, I’d rather slap on the
provided case for peace of mind. On the
top left corner, you’ll find the three
squareish lenses. But don’t be fooled.
Only one is an actual camera. We’ll get
to that in a bit. Notably, there’s an
orange accenting on the sides of the
camera enclosure adding a bit of flare
to its overall look. Moving over to
IO’s, the power button alongside with a
volume rocker and the so-called onetop
AI button are found on the right.
There’s the SIM tray with a dedicated
micro SD card slot on the left. The top
side houses a speaker grill for stereo
audio and at the bottom sees the second
loudspeaker, USBC port, a mic, and a 3.5
mm headphone jack. For added protection,
the phone comes with an IP64 rating for
dust and splash resistance. So, that’s
two fewer things to worry about. Flip
the phone over, you’re greeted by a
large 6.78 in LTPS AMOLED display with a
crisp 1.5K resolution and a smooth 144
hertz refresh rate. Surprisingly, the
screen gets bright enough for outdoor
use, providing 1,600 nits high
brightness mode and up to 4,500 nits of
HDR peak brightness. The viewing
experience has been quite enjoyable on
this phone. You get vivid colors, good
contrast, and deep true black. Plus,
there’s Widevine L1 support, allowing
for HD viewing on Netflix, and it can
stream YouTube videos with up to,440p
quality. For the audio quality, though,
it is a bit mediocre in my opinion. The
mids sound okay, but they get drowned
out by the highs. Meanwhile, the lows
are serviceable but not very punchy to
my liking and the overall audio is not
as loud. Still, you can get a decent
immersive audio experience with this
phone as it features dual stereo
speakers to boot. Besides, you also have
the 3.5 mm audio jack at your disposal,
so you can just use your wired
headphones or earphones whenever you
like. For biometric security, the device
supports under display fingerprint
sensor along with a face recognition.
The former typically unlocks the phone
by a split second and that’s fast enough
in our experience. Now, let’s talk about
the camera performance. Like I mentioned
earlier, despite the triple rear looking
camera setup, only one is an actual
camera, and that’s a 50 megapixel
sensor. The brand did not specify what
the other sensor does, but it’s most
likely an auxiliary lens, as with most
entry-level phones these days. Images
captured from the Hot 60 Pro generally
look decent. The details are sharp
enough, the colors are near accurate,
and they’ve got decent contrast. We must
say the image processing applies a
cooler tone on most of the shots. And
under low light scenarios, you will see
the noise creeping in, but that’s a
given for entry-level smartphones such
as the Hot 60 Pro. Still, the overall
image quality is decent enough for
casual snaps, provided you take photos
in well environment. When it comes to
video, the Hot 60 Pro also does a decent
job. This sounds like a surprise, but
the phone can capture footage with up to
2K resolution at 30 frames per second.
There’s no OAS here, so your shots may
be a bit shaky. You can toggle ultra
steady mode to stabilize video, though
it automatically lowers the resolution
to 1080p at 30 frames per second.
Overall, the video quality itself is all
right. In terms of processing power,
just like with most entry-level
smartphones, you may have to set your
expectations. The Infinix 60 Pro is
powered by the Media Tech G200, and our
unit comes with 8 gig of RAM and 256 gig
of expandable storage, which is always a
plus in our book. Taking a look at our
benchmark results, the phone managed to
get respectable scores across the board.
In Antutu, it scored almost 500,000
points, which is a solid score for its
class. Read and write speeds are solids
and apps open quickly in my experience.
However, when it comes to graphical
tasks like 3D Mark, the phone struggles
to get higher scores, which is
understandable considering this is an
entry-level smartphone. We did try
playing Weathering Waves, and while it
is playable in a very low graphics
settings, it wasn’t really a satisfying
experience. For more casual games
though, like Asphalt Legends Unite, the
phone manages to deliver stable frame
rates. The same goes for mobile titles
like Mobile Legends. Albiter combos may
not be as fast or smooth to pull off.
That said, the chipset will do just fine
on light usage like browsing the web,
doom scrolling on socials, or even
productivity tasks. Software- wise, the
Infinix Hot 60 Pro runs on the latest
Android 15 with XOS 15 on top. You can
appreciate the snappy animations as well
as a refined UI design. There’s even
some blur effects on the notification
and control panels, and that is
something you don’t normally see in its
price range. Of course, a lot of bloware
apps can be seen here. Some of them are
only removable from the home screen,
while others can be uninstalled
completely. Unfortunately, there’s no
mention how long the phone will get
software support. Notably, the Hot 60
Pro comes with a suite of nifty AI
features, including its own voice
assistant, a writing companion, and an
AI editor within the gallery app. And
remember the one tap AI button? Well, it
mainly does two things. Long press to
launch the AI voice assistant, and
double press to quickly open any app or
shortcut you’ve remapped the button to.
It can also be used as a shutter button,
but it’s rather redundant since the
volume down button basically does the
same thing. Moreover, the button is
positioned too close to the center,
making it impractical for shooting
content in landscape orientation. Going
back to software, XOS is pretty light,
offering lots of functional tools and
features. Given the phone’s entry-level
nature, the software experience is quite
good in my opinion. What’s really
interesting about this phone is despite
its razor thin profile, it still packs a
5,160 mAh battery, which is even
slightly larger than the usual capacity.
That said, it does offer a solid battery
life, surpassing 13 hours and 14 minutes
in our PC Mark battery life test.
Actually, battery life depends on how
you use your device. Since I don’t do
many graphic heavy tasks, I felt like
the phone actually lasted longer than
that. If ever the battery runs out, it
has a 45 watts of fast charging that
gets the battery to full in just about
an hour. And just like most Infinix
phones, this one also gets bypass
charging support. Connectivity wise,
you’re getting all the essentials here,
including 4G LTE, Wi-Fi 5, Bluetooth
5.4, and NFC. Moreover, there’s also the
addition of an IR blaster, allowing the
phone to be used as a universal remote.
In our testing, it appears that the
third camera lens at the rear actually
houses the IR blaster. As for the remote
control app itself, it’s a bit tricky to
find at first, but it’s stuck away
inside Infin app, Wife. Now, we’ve come
to the last part of this review. Let’s
talk about the price. As of making this
video, Infin has yet to reveal the
pricing of the Infin Hot 60 Pro.
However, we can refer to the last year’s
model, which was priced at 8,499 pesos.
And that’s even the Pro Plus version,
mind you. So, the pricing should be less
if not the same as before. Under that
price range, the Infinix 60 Pro is
surprisingly packed with the good stuff
that you would typically see in
higherend models. It comes with a crisp
and bright 1.5K AMOLED screen, a decent
camera performance, and a featurerich
software experience among others. Best
of all, the slim profile really sets the
Infin Hot 60 Pro apart from the rest of
the competition. It even outperforms
some more expensive models under the
15,000 peso mark. I’m looking at to you
Oppo A series. Wrapping this up, the
Infin Hot 60 Pro is definitely one to
recommend if you’re looking for an
entry-level phone that punches well
above its weight class. But what do you

Okay, we need to talk about something that genuinely surprised us in the studio this week.
You know how entry-level phones usually feel a bit… chunky? Like they’re trying to make up for something with extra bulk? Well, Infinix just flipped that script entirely.
We got our hands on the new Infinix HOT 60 Pro, and the first thing we said when we pulled it out of the box was, ‘Wait, is this real?’ It’s unbelievably thin.
We’re talking ‘could probably slide under your door’ thin. But here at YugaTech, we’re not just about first impressions.
A sleek design is great, but what’s the point if the phone can’t keep up with your daily grind? In our latest video review, we put this slender newcomer through its paces.
We explore whether that jaw-dropping thin profile comes with any hidden costs.
Does it feel fragile? How does the battery hold up? And most importantly, is it actually a good phone to use, or is it all just a pretty facade?
Watch as we test everything from its camera performance (spoiler: that triple-lens setup has a secret) to how it handles a marathon gaming session.
If you’ve ever wondered what you’re really sacrificing or gaining with an ultra-thin phone, this is the review you need to see.
What You’ll See in This Video
- An insanely thin 6.6mm frame that redefines what an entry-level phone can look like.
- A textured, sandblasted plastic back that fights fingerprints and adds a premium feel.
- Stereo speakers and a beloved 3.5mm headphone jack, because good audio shouldn’t be a luxury.
- The camera module has a stylish orange accent, but we reveal how many lenses are actually real.
- We test the included case and discuss why you might want to use it on such a slim device.
Curious to see if this ultra-thin phone can actually handle a thick stack of daily tasks? Don’t just take our word for it. Hit play on the video above to get our full, unfiltered review and see the Infinix HOT 60 Pro in action!
Frequently Asked Questions
How thin is the Infinix HOT 60 Pro exactly?
It’s incredibly slim at just 6.6mm thick. For context, that’s thinner than most pencils. There’s also a HOT 60 Pro Plus variant that goes down to an almost unbelievable 5.95mm.
Does the thin design make the phone feel cheap or fragile?
In our hands-on, the plastic build felt solid and the textured back provides good grip. However, because it’s so thin, we strongly recommend using the included case for extra protection and peace of mind.
What’s the deal with the three cameras on the back?
This is a classic case of ‘don’t judge a book by its cover.’ As we reveal in the video, only one of those three square lenses is a real, functioning camera. The others are for depth and macro effects.
Is this phone good for media consumption?
Yes. It comes with stereo speakers (one on top, one on the bottom) for a decent audio experience, and it still has a 3.5mm headphone jack, which is a huge win for wired audio fans.
