Following an earlier FCC listing that first teased its arrival, the Infinix Note 50 series has continued to make waves through various certification appearances, giving us a clearer picture of what’s to come. The successor to last year’s well-received Note 40 lineup appears ready to shake up the mid-range smartphone market with several upgrades and features.
Adding to the mounting evidence of an imminent launch, the Infinix Note 50 Pro has now been spotted by Gizmochina on Indonesia’s SDPPI certification database bearing the model number X6855. While this latest certification doesn’t reveal detailed specifications, it strongly suggests that Infinix is preparing for a global rollout of the device.
Expected Variants
The Note 50 series is expected to launch with multiple variants, including:
- Note 50 (Base model)
- Note 50X
- Note 50 Pro
- Note 50 Pro Plus 5G
This diverse lineup is a strategy by Infinix to cater to different price points and user needs within the mid-range segment.
Design and Build
Design sketches reveal a striking aesthetic evolution, featuring a dual-tone finish and a distinctive octagonal camera module on a flat rear panel. The base model Note 50 will be available in eye-catching green and pink colorways, with a slim 9mm profile, ensuring a comfortable grip.
Storage and Performance
While detailed specifications remain under wraps, certification documents confirm that the Infinix Note 50 Pro will offer at least one variant with 12GB of RAM paired with 256GB of storage. This configuration means the upcoming model will be well-equipped to handle demanding applications and multitasking.
Battery and Charging
- The standard Note 50 will support 45W wired fast charging, a significant upgrade in charging capabilities.
- The Pro model is expected to match or exceed this charging speed.
- Given that the Note 40 Pro offered wireless charging support, this feature might return in the new series.
- While battery size details remain unknown, considering the Note 40 Pro featured a 5000mAh battery, the Note 50 is likely to carry a similar or larger capacity.
- NFC capability has been confirmed for the Pro model, ensuring users can take advantage of contactless payments and other proximity-based features.
Price Point
Looking at its predecessor’s pricing strategy (Note 40 Pro 5G launched at $289 for the 8GB/256GB variant), we can expect the Note 50 series to maintain a competitive pricing structure. It will likely be an attractive option for users seeking high-end features at a budget under KES 50,000.
