Infinix has just launched a new device in the Philippines, the Infinix GT 50 Pro.
One look is enough to tell that this phone is built for gaming. But you might be wondering, what sets it apart from other gaming devices on the market?
We were curious too, so we tested it out. Read on to find out our thoughts.
As someone who enjoys mobile gaming, one feature I really appreciate is the HydroFlow Liquid Cooling system.
During long gaming sessions, it helps keep the phone’s temperature under control. This is important because when a device gets too hot, performance can drop. I know many of our readers notice lag, frame drops, or slower response times. In some cases, even simple tasks like messaging or scrolling can feel less smooth, right?
But with this new cooling system, it helps reduce these issues by keeping the device running at a more stable temperature. It results in maintaining better performance, especially during gaming.
But what exactly is HydroFlow Liquid Cooling?
The HydroFlow Liquid Cooling system is one of the largest liquid-cooling areas in the industry. It is also said to be the first solution to provide 100% coverage of the device’s core heat-generating components, helping transfer heat away more efficiently.
Combined with its circulating heat dissipation design, the system aims to distribute heat evenly across the chassis for better thermal management during extended gaming sessions and heavy workloads.
During our testing, temperatures remained manageable even after extended use. The HydroFlow Liquid Cooling system helped keep the device comfortable to hold, and we did not experience any major performance throttling while gaming or performing other demanding tasks.
Aside from its cooling system, the Infinix GT 50 Pro also supports up to 144 FPS in gaming.
In actual gameplay, the phone feels fast and responsive. Animations look smoother, and movements feel more connected to your input. In competitive matches, this makes a noticeable difference, especially when reacting to fast fights or tracking enemies on screen.
The overall feel is less about looking high frame numbers and more about how consistent and stable the motion stays during gameplay. It helps keep control and feel steady even when action gets intense.
Just like the HydroFlow Liquid Cooling system, the 144 FPS support is most noticeable during actual play sessions where performance consistency matters.
So if you ever find yourself bored during a commute or while taking a short break, the Infinix GT 50 Pro is more than capable of handling a quick gaming session.
Another feature is the Pressure-Sensitive GT Trigger. If you’ve used a gaming controller before, this one might look familiar, as it works similarly to the shoulder buttons found on many controllers.
In fast moments, it reduces the need to move your thumbs across the screen, which can make controls feel quicker and more natural. In MLBB, it also helps when doing fast skill combinations or sudden plays.
It also changes the rhythm of how you interact with the game, since inputs feel less dependent on on-screen button positioning.
It’s not only for gaming too, since you can set it up for different actions like taking screenshots, screen recording, opening apps like Folax, or even triggering in-game moves.
What we appreciate about this feature is how natural it feels in actual gameplay. In FPS games, it makes aiming and shooting feel quicker and more convenient.
In MLBB, it also helps when doing skill combos or fast plays, since the triggers are easier to reach and use during intense moments.
To use the GT Trigger, just head over to the XArena app, where you can customize it based on your preferred controls.
At first glance, it’s easy to tell that this is a gaming phone. One of its standout features is the new four crosshair-style RGB lights on the back.
These RGB lights aren’t just a design, but they turn on during charging, low battery alerts, and of course while gaming.
And speaking of gaming, the Infinix GT 50 Pro is actually the official tournament phone of the MPL Philippines.
What sets it apart from other gaming devices is that most gaming phones usually rely on RGB strips or glowing logos. The Infinix GT 50 Pro, on the other hand, is more intentional with its design. It looks obviously made for gaming.
Overall, the Infinix GT 50 Pro clearly performs best as a gaming-focused phone.
If your main games are Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, Call of Duty: Mobile, and other competitive titles, this device is commendable since the responsive controls and gaming-focused features all help deliver an enjoyable experience.
For more graphically demanding games, the GT 50 Pro still performs well for its price range.
What’s good is that instead of trying to compete, the Infinix GT 50 Pro focuses on giving a solid esports experience at a more affordable price point.
So, if you’re an esports-focused gamer looking for a phone that can handle both competitive and heavier games without spending too much, the Infinix GT 50 Pro is a good choice for its price.
The 256GB ROM + 12GB RAM (+12GB extended RAM) variant is priced at PHP25,999 (SRP), while the 512GB ROM + 12GB RAM (+12GB extended RAM) variant is priced at PHP29,999 (SRP).
For the first sale starting June 10 at 8PM via the official Infinix Philippines TikTok Shop, launch discounts will be available. With the limited-time promo, the 256GB variant will be sold at PHP23,999, while the 512GB variant will be available for PHP27,999.
