Infinix has officially unveiled the Hot 70 series, with the standard Hot 70 making its debut first. The Pro, Pro+, and other variants are expected to launch later. While this is only the base model, it already showcases several standout features that may define the rest of the lineup.
Thermo Paint Design That Changes With Heat
The biggest highlight is the design, particularly the Thermo Orange color variant. The back panel uses heat-sensitive paint that changes shade depending on temperature:
- Quiet Orange when cool (darker tone)
- Playful Orange when warmed up (brighter tone)
Other color options include:
Green Texture, Quiet Violet, Dive Blue, Silver Dancer, and Night Pulse.
Despite the experimental finish, the phone remains slim at 7.49mm and weighs 195g, making it relatively lightweight for its battery size.
Display: Large 120Hz Panel
The Infinix Hot 70 features a:
- 6.78-inch IPS LCD display
- 720 × 1576 resolution
- 120Hz refresh rate
Performance: Helio G100 Ultimate
Powering the device is the MediaTek Helio G100 Ultimate chipset, the same silicon used in last year’s Infinix Note 50 Pro series. Memory configurations include:
- 6GB + 128GB
- 8GB + 128GB
- 6GB + 256GB
- 8GB + 256GB
Battery and Charging
The phone packs a 6000mAh battery, which is notable given its slim 7.5mm profile. Charging and power features include:
- 45W wired fast charging
- 10W reverse charging support
Infinix is positioning this combination for strong endurance performance.
Cameras
The rear setup includes:
- 50MP main camera (f/1.9)
- Auxiliary lens (likely a depth sensor, purpose not specified by Infinix)
Front camera:
- 8MP selfie shooter (f/2.0)
Software and Features
The Hot 70 runs on Android 16 with XOS 16 on top.
A unique addition is a dedicated hardware button, which can be customized for app shortcuts or system features.
