Infinix just dropped its latest flagship lineup—the NOTE 50 Series—and it’s aiming to shake up the budget phone market. Headlining the launch is the NOTE 50 Pro, a sleek powerhouse that blends innovation, style, and performance.
These phones feature a lightweight yet robust metal frame, a One-Tap Infinix AI∞ system, Bio-Active Halo Lighting, a 144Hz 6.78-inch AMOLED display, and a 50MP OIS Night Master Camera. Powering all of these features is a battery that charges with All-Round FastCharging 3.0 and Wireless MagCharge.
“The NOTE 50 Series embodies our philosophy of ‘Performance, by design.’ As Infinix’s latest flagship, it adopts a user-centric approach by integrating innovative materials, AI, battery technology, and health monitoring—delivering a smoother, more reliable experience for both work and play. By prioritizing real user needs, we have transformed an everyday smartphone into a ‘true flagship’ that seamlessly addresses various life applications with a lighter metal design, an all-encompassing AI assistant, and intelligent charging technology.”
Jelly Buan, Infinix Philippines Marketing Manager
Design That Balances Style and Durability
First off, the NOTE 50 Series stuns with its metal frame. It’s light, strong, and starts at under ₱9,000—a game-changer for this price range. Infinix used ArmorAlloy™, a blend of Damascus steel and aerospace-grade aluminum, to build a frame that’s sleek yet tough.
Rounded edges make it comfortable to hold. Inside, HyperCasting technology ensures lightweight strength and impact resistance. Meanwhile, TÜV SÜD-certified ShockAbsorb™ drop resistance keeps it durable. The 4.5G Open-Air Network Structure in the NOTE 50 Pro improves WiFi and GPS performance.
Fast Charging You Can Count On
Battery anxiety? Not here. The NOTE 50 Pro features All-Round FastCharging 3.0 with three charging modes: Smart, Turbo, and Low-Temperature. The 90W wired charging fills the 5200mAh battery in just 38 minutes. On top of that, the Cheetah X2 chip helps in extending battery life, maintaining over 80% health after 2,300 cycles. SolidCore Battery tech works even in extreme temps, from -20°C to 40°C.
Running low? PowerReserve mode gives you 2.2 hours of calls with just 1% battery. Plus, it supports reverse charging—both wired and wireless—for emergencies.
Smarter AI Features, Right at Your Fingertips
Infinix brings an intuitive One-Tap AI system on the Infinix NOTE 50 Series. This system lets you activate Infinix’s AI assistant, Folax, with a simple long press of the power button. Folax instantly reads on-screen content, translates text, and answers questions with a Q&A function and One-Tap Ask Screen.
For work or school, Folax handles voice commands across apps—perfect for multitasking, scheduling, or navigating. Creators will love the AI-powered writing tool and sketch-to-image generator.
It even offers real-time call translation, noise reduction, and privacy masking to hide sensitive info. Smart, efficient, and secure.
Gaming and Streaming? No Problem.
The NOTE 50 Pro is ready to game. Thanks to the 4.5G network and 6nm MediaTek Helio G100 chip, lag is minimal. EDCA technology ensures uninterrupted streaming and calls, while low-latency WiFi and minimal Bluetooth delays provide precise control and accurate audio. Game Assistant XBOOST offers one-click access to E-Sports Mode and allows easy switching between power-saving, balanced, and performance modes.
The NOTE 50 Pro stays cool during intense sessions, thanks to a VC vapor chamber and graphite layer. Add in an X-Axis motor for accurate haptics, and you’ve got an immersive experience.
Health Tracking on a Smartphone? Yup.
The Infinix NOTE 50 Pro includes built-in health sensors. You can check your SpO2 and heart rate just by placing your finger on the sensor: no wearable needed. The My Health app shows your results instantly, and you can even ask Folax to open it using voice commands.
Flagship Photography and Visuals
Photography shines with its 50MP OIS Night Master Camera. It uses AI RAW to deliver crisp, clear photos even in low light. Its AMOLED display is no slouch either, with 144Hz refresh rate and 1300 nits brightness.
The NOTE 50 Pro adds a 112° ultra-wide camera and Double-Tap Street Mode for quick shots. Notifications, calls, and charging get a stylish touch with the Bio-Active Halo AI lighting system.
It also rocks dual JBL speakers, IP64 protection, NFC, and even an IR remote.
