According to the 2020 SuperData Research report, the value of the global game market reached US$159 billion, eight times that of the music industry (US$19.1 billion), and four times that of the film industry (US$41.7 billion) times. Among them, the e-sports industry contributed $1.1 billion in revenue, which also explains why gaming phones have emerged in an endless stream recently. Infinix recently launched the company’s first phone designed specifically for gaming, called the GT 10 Pro.
The GT 10 Pro is equipped with a MediaTek Dimensity 8050 chip with a 6-nanometer process, which has 4+4 A78 and A55 cores, the highest frequency of which reaches 3.0GHz, and is equipped with a 9-core Mali-G77 GPU, as well as 8GB LPDDR4X memory and 256GB UFS 3.1 Storage Space. In addition, microSD card expansion of up to 1TB and 8GB of virtual memory are supported.
In addition to chips, another important part of gaming phones is the display. The GT 10 Pro is equipped with a 6.67-inch AMOLED screen with a resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels (20:9), supports three refresh rates of 120Hz, 90Hz and 60Hz, and has a touch sampling rate of 360Hz. This is a 10-bit color depth panel with narrow borders, a peak brightness of 900 nits, and a 1920Hz high-frequency PWM dimming technology. The screen has a built-in fingerprint reader, as well as proximity and light sensors.
The battery capacity of the GT 10 Pro is 5000mAh, and it supports bypass charging technology – that is, the USB Power Delivery 3.0 charger can be used to bypass the battery and directly power the phone, which can reduce heat generation during gaming and extend battery life. In addition, the machine supports PD charging up to 45W.
In terms of audio, the GT 10 Pro has stereo speakers and a 3.5mm headphone jack. There’s also a 4D vibration engine that enhances audio with haptic feedback.
The Infinix GT 10 Pro is available in two colors: Cyber Black and Phantom Silver. The design has elements of cyberpunk, and it has a customizable mini-LED light. A protective case is also included in the box to make the phone more non-slip.
In terms of cameras, the new phone has a 108MP main camera (f/1.75 aperture, 1/1.67-inch sensor) on the rear, and two 2MP auxiliary cameras; there is a 32MP selfie camera on the front. The rear camera is equipped with four LED flashes, the front camera has two LED lights, and both cameras support video recording at up to 2K / 30fps or 1080p / 60fps.
The Infinix GT 10 Pro runs the Pure XOS 13 system based on Android 13. It’s called “pure” because Infinix says it has fewer pre-installed apps and no ads.
The packaging box of the GT 10 Pro is also very characteristic. Infinix specially designed this paper box so that it can be turned into a passive sound amplifier / charging stand. It’s a clever design that reuses the box and adds to the fun of the phone.
Infinix GT 10 Pro will be available in the near future, priced at about US$240-US$250 (There will be some differences in different regions).
