Infinix’s thinnest smartphone leaks in live images with just 6mm thickness.
Following the launch of the Infinix Hot 50 5G, rumors of another phone in development are gaining traction. If the leaks are accurate, this upcoming device could become the slimmest smartphone in the past five years.
Currently, that title belongs to the Tecno Camon 11 series, another brand under Transsion, which also owns Infinix. The Tecno Camon 11 series debuted in 2018.
Reports from Passionategeekz, citing insider sources, claim Infinix is developing a phone measuring a mere 6mm in thickness. The publication also shared live images of the smartphone comparing its profile to an iPhone.
The leaked image reveals a phone with a curved display, likely using 3D curved glass. The design continues with a back panel that curves gently towards the edges, while a central frame connects the front and back, maintaining a sleek look.
Although only the back panel is visible in the images, it seems to take design cues from the Infinix Hot 50 5G. The rear features a rectangular camera module with three camera sensors and an LED flash.
The phone’s slim design may be thanks to silicon carbon battery cells. It has a higher energy density compared to graphite, which is commonly used in lithium-ion batteries. Silicon can store more lithium ions per unit of volume, allowing for smaller batteries with the same capacity.
The leaked images also juxtapose the Infinix phone against an iPhone Pro/Pro Max model, showing the dramatic difference in thickness. For reference, the recently released iPhone 16 boasts a thickness of 7.80mm, while the iPhone 16 Pro Max comes in at 8.25mm.
Beyond the headline-grabbing thinness, details about the Infinix phone remain scarce. However, with live images now circulating, an official announcement could be imminent.
