Guess what, gamers! Infinix has just dropped their latest gaming smartphone in the Philippines — the Infinix GT 20 Pro. And the price? An enticing Php13,999 for now (though it’s normally Php15,999). This one’s making waves in the gaming community!

Infinix is also teaming up with MPL, making the GT 20 Pro the official phone for the season’s tournaments. Nice move, right?

Let's dive into what makes this phone tick.

- Design and Construction

The device comes in this slick Mecha Blue (also available in Mecha Silver and Mecha Orange) with a back panel that lights up with customizable LEDs. I'm talking about a maxed-out model here with 12GB of RAM (+12GB MemFusion) and 256GB storage — quite an upgrade!

The GT 20 Pro is slightly slimmer, taller, and a tad thicker, but it feels great in hand with a bigger display and leaner profile. The standout design? Totally unique with its Cyber Mecha look and the LED lights that flash when you charge, get a call, or play music. Plus, the GT Game Boot and Party Mode features are just cool.

- Display, Multimedia, And Biometrics

Feast your eyes on a nearly bezel-less 6.78″ AMOLED display with a 94.3% screen-to-body ratio and a 144Hz refresh rate. That’s as smooth as it gets, rivaling high-end gaming phones like the ASUS ROG Phone.

The display packs a punch with 1080×2436 resolution and 1,300 nits peak brightness, enhanced by a Pixelworks X5 processor for top-notch visuals during intense gaming. You’ve got games like MLBB, PUBG, and Genshin running at super high frame rates, making for a seamless experience.

Dual JBL-tuned speakers deliver crisp, loud sound perfect for gaming or movies. And security? Face Unlock and a fingerprint sensor cover all bases.

- Camera

Surprise! The GT 20 Pro steps up its game with a 108MP Samsung ISOCELL HM6 main camera with OIS, delivering sharp, clear photos day or night. Video recording is solid too, handling up to 4K at 60fps with minimal shake. There’s also a 2MP macro lens, a 2MP depth sensor, and a 32MP selfie camera — all good enough for social media stardom.

- Performance And Benchmarks

Under the hood, the GT 20 Pro is powered by a Mediatek Dimensity 8200 Ultimate chip, making it snappy and efficient. Benchmark tests show a 25% performance boost over its predecessor, thanks to higher clock speeds and extra memory. Real-world performance is smooth, with fast app and game loads, no overheating, and a dedicated ESports Mode to keep distractions at bay.

- OS, Apps, and UI

The GT 20 Pro runs on XOS for GT V14, based on Android 14, with promises of updates up to Android 16. Infinix has kept the OS clean, with no bloatware — just essential apps like XArena and XTheme. Game optimization is a big focus, ensuring a streamlined, disturbance-free gaming experience.

- Connectivity And Battery Life

The GT 20 Pro has all the connectivity options you need: WiFi, Bluetooth, NFC, GPS, and 5G support for all major networks. It’s only downside? No expandable storage beyond the 256GB.

The 5,000mAh battery supports 45W fast charging, lasting nearly a full day with heavy use. In video loop tests, it clocked in at 23 hours and 48 minutes. Gaming sessions lasted around 7.5 hours at high settings, with full recharges taking about an hour.

- Conclusion

The Infinix GT 20 Pro is a fantastic budget gaming phone with solid performance, a smooth display, and gamer-friendly features. The unique design and LED lighting are just the cherry on top. At Php13,999 (promo price), it’s a hard deal to beat.
