Introduction and specifications
Infinix is not a new smartphone company, but it has only recently started making inroads into markets outside of Africa. As it expands its presence, the smartphone maker also tries to cover as many market segments as possible, even niche segments like gaming smartphones. Enter the Infinix GT 10 Pro, a budget phone that aims to offer solidity in a body with a decidedly gaming aesthetic.
The GT 10 Pro is strongly related to the Infinix Note 30 VIP, but has reduced charging capabilities and comes with a different body and improved cooling. The new phone makes do with a relatively tame 45W charge, slower than the Note 30 VIP can do wirelessly. And since we already have the charging test for the VIP, you can use the other parts of this review if you’re in the market for the GT 10 Pro’s sibling as well.
Let’s not go back to the review. The GT 10 Pro is characterized by an unusual and attractive design. It slightly reminds us of the Nothing Phone (1) and (2) with its transparent back and LED lighting, but obviously the overall aesthetic here is different.

A MediaTek Dimensity 8050 chipset is running the show. Announced just a couple of months ago, it’s mostly a rebranded Dimension 1300, which used to be a flagship SoC. A bright 6.67-inch OLED panel with 120Hz refresh rate complements the gaming experience with a fairly fast 360Hz touch sampling rate.
It wouldn’t be a gaming phone without a set of stereo speakers, of course, and the GT 10 Pro gets a DTS tune for those too.
Last but not least, the GT 10 Pro features a rarely seen 108MP main camera in this class with a large 1/1.67″ sensor. It’s the only fully functional camera on the back, but if it manages to comfortably outpace the competition many will probably be willing to live without an ultrawide shooter We’ll get to that in a moment, but first let’s open the box and see what’s inside.
Infinix GT 10 Pro unboxing
The GT 10 Pro comes in a generous retail box containing not only the user manuals, USB-A to USB-C cable and 45W charger, but also a pair of wired earphones.
The package also contains a transparent silicone case, which provides some protection without hiding the back design.
