Infinix recently launched its latest gaming phone, the GT 30 Pro, in India. Set to hit Flipkart on June 12, 2025, the device is aiming to shake up the mid-premium gaming segment. With a launch day price of INR 22,999 (including offers), it packs some pretty serious specs and gamer-friendly features that promise focused, smooth performance.

Bold Looks with a Gamer’s Flair

The GT 30 Pro comes in two colors: Dark Flare, which sports RGB LED lighting, and Blade White, featuring white LEDs. Infinix calls its design the Cyber Mecha Design 2.0—an evolution of their signature gaming style. What stands out is the rear panel’s programmable LED lights. These LEDs react in real time to things like charging status, incoming calls, or in-game events. It’s a cool touch that adds situational awareness whether you’re deep in a match or juggling multiple tasks.

Powering the Play: The First MediaTek Dimensity 8350 ULTIMATE Processor

Under the hood, the GT 30 Pro boasts the world’s first MediaTek Dimensity 8350 ULTIMATE chip, running at a brisk 3.35GHz. According to benchmarks, it hits over 1.5 million on AnTuTu, which is quite impressive. Paired with UFS 4.0 storage and LPDDR5X RAM expandable up to 24GB, Infinix claims this setup delivers 24% faster game scene transitions and snappy overall performance.

Anish Kapoor, CEO of Infinix India, put it plainly: “The GT 30 Pro marks a pivotal moment for Infinix and India’s gaming landscape.” He emphasized gamers today demand “uncompromising performance, advanced thermal design, and immersive gameplay.” Features like Krafton-certified 120FPS BGMI support, GT Shoulder Triggers, and the Cyber Mecha Design, he says, directly address those needs.

Made for Competitive Play: Display and Triggers

The GT 30 Pro targets casual to mid-core gamers stepping up their game. It sports a 1.5K AMOLED display with a blazing 144Hz refresh rate and peak brightness of 4500 nits, promising sharp visuals even in bright environments.

One of the standout features is the customizable GT Shoulder Triggers. These can be mapped to key in-game controls like aiming or shooting, offering that split-second edge. Beyond gaming, you can assign them to shortcuts like launching the camera or toggling Do Not Disturb, which adds a nice bit of versatility.

Staying Cool When Things Heat Up: Advanced Thermal Engineering

Long gaming sessions can really heat up your phone, literally. That’s why the GT 30 Pro features a large 5400 mm² vapor chamber cooling system. It includes two copper foils, three graphite heat dissipation films, and a 3D vapor chamber to spread heat away from the CPU, GPU, and battery. This cooling setup is 13% larger than before, helping to keep the phone’s surface cooler and avoid performance throttling during extended play.

Smart Features for a Better Gaming Experience

Infinix has packed the GT 30 Pro with some thoughtful extras. The XBOOST AI technology adjusts system performance on the fly for smoother gaming. Esports Mode blocks distractions and boosts performance. Audio gets a 50% enhancement over the previous model, letting users tailor soundscapes—like making footsteps and gunfire stand out more clearly.

There’s also AI Image Stabilization for fluid visuals during fast action, and ZoneTouch Master adjusts touch sensitivity dynamically to reduce lag.

One feature worth highlighting is Bypass Charging. This routes power directly from the charger to the motherboard instead of the battery, reducing heat by up to 4°C. That’s a solid plus for intense gaming or long sessions while plugged in.

The GT Gaming Kit: Extra Gear to Up Your Game

For gamers wanting to push things further, Infinix offers the GT Gaming Kit. It includes a MagCase, necessary for attaching the cooling fan, both featuring that Cyber Mecha 2.0 aesthetic. The fan itself is lightweight aluminum alloy, runs quietly at 10W power and 4500 RPM, and sports RGB lighting for added atmosphere. This setup lets you game longer without overheating worries.

Pricing and Availability

The GT 30 Pro comes in Dark Flare and Blade White with two variants: 8GB RAM/256GB storage at INR 24,999, and 12GB RAM/256GB storage at INR 26,999. Both are exclusive to Flipkart and retail stores.

On launch day, June 12, 2025, buyers can snag the phone for a special price of INR 22,999 (including all offers) on Flipkart. The GT Gaming Kit retails for INR 1,999 but is available at a discounted INR 1,199 when purchased alongside the phone.

So, is the Infinix GT 30 Pro the ultimate gaming smartphone for its price? It certainly packs a lot of features that gamers care about—power, display, cooling, and thoughtful extras. Whether it’ll truly dominate depends on how it performs day-to-day, but on paper, it’s hard not to be intrigued.
