The smartphone industry isn't one you just wake up one day and decide to break into. Dominated by long-established brands and OEMs, it takes a unique vision and a compelling use case for a new phone from a new brand to shake up the old order. But since its founding in 2013, that's what Infinix has been doing, delivering high-power mobile gaming performance at prices accessible to customers around the world, while at the same time playing a major role in expanding the reach of eSports around the world. Their latest phone, the GT 30 Pro, is not only a great gaming device, but also a tool to support eSports talent.
First up, check out those specs. With a 6.78" AMOLED 1.5k (1224 x 2720) screen, you're looking at a crisp 440 ppi pixel density that ensures flawless clarity and those trademark deep blacks proffered by the display tech. At 144 Hz, the GT 30 Pro can deliver ultra-smooth visuals, whether you want to be pulled that deeper into an open-world RPG, or gain the edge over opponents in competitive play. In hit MOBA Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, for example, the GT 30 Pro has certified 120FPS support—effectively a guarantee for great performance. Beyond the screen and refresh rate, the GT 30 Pro introduces Infinix’s All-Day Full FPS System. This innovative solution combines hardware and accessory integration—including the MagCase and MagCharge Cooler—to sustain maximum frame rates over long gaming sessions without throttling or performance dips.
Meanwhile, Infinix’s advanced 3D Vapor Cloud Chamber (3DVCC) keeps things cool under the hood, efficiently dissipating heat even under heavy loads. Together with the official cooling peripherals, this thermal management system ensures that the GT 30 Pro maintains stable high-frame-rate performance, giving gamers a smoother and more consistent experience.
For select titles like Mobile Legends: Bang Bang and PUBG Mobile, the GT 30 Pro has been officially certified for up to 120 FPS, unlocking an ultra-responsive experience that’s especially noticeable in fast-paced competitive matches. Even in the heat of battle, the All-Day Full FPS System keeps temperatures down and frame rates steady, so there’s no risk of overheating, performance throttling, or mid-match slowdowns.
With a 5500mAh battery, you’re looking at about 5-6 hours of game time, so you won’t need to worry about running it down any time soon. The device also supports 45W wired charging and 30W wireless charging, plus bypass charging to keep temperatures in check while gaming plugged in.
It's a solid feature set, which will easily churn out games like PUBG Mobile and Call of Duty Mobile at the resolutions and frame rates worthy of pro gamers. But perhaps the most unique item in the GT 30 Pro's inventory is the GT Trigger—a pair of touch-capacitive shoulder buttons that you can map to whatever you want (clearly RT for shooting and LT for aiming!). It's a smart design, in particular because it frees your right thumb from the game screen to improve visibility while providing an intuitive console-style feel.
Beyond the hardware
Infinix is not just a phone manufacturer—it's also a fast-growing force on the eSports scene. The GT 30 Pro is the official tournament device for the 2025 PUBG Mobile Super League (PMSL), an A-tier pro league with prize pools up to $400,000, and a springboard into higher-tier eSports events like PMWC and PMGC.
It's also the official device for the upcoming Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (MLBB) leagues across Southeast Asia, including the MLBB Professional League, MLBB Development League and MLBB Myanmar Super League. It's the third year in a row that Infinix is sponsoring these prestigious eSports tournaments, and they're just getting started.
It's not just about the brand making a name for itself either. Infinix is dedicated to giving a platform to aspiring eSports stars, with long-term investments in eSports education. The Infinix Campus Cup 2025 (XCC), for example, is an initiative designed to engage students in Southeast Asia in eSports, and scout out the pro gaming stars of the future. With a $30,000 prize pool, gaming hardware (yes, including the GT 30 Pro), and the prestige of victory at stake, it's a great opportunity for young people from an underrepresented region in eSports to make a name for themselves.
As Infinix Chief Executive Officer, Tony Zhao aptly puts it: "XCC was born from our belief that the future of esports starts on campus. From the beginning, it has been about empowering the next generation of esports legends and bridging the gap between young gamers and the professional scene."
Nurturing the next generation
Infinix knows that in order to nurture the next generation of eSports talent, it's not enough to just host tournaments for existing pros—you need to do it from the grassroots. That's where the GT Pro-Game Talent initiative comes in, offering a structured pipeline for eSports people, from university leagues all the way to pro eSports training camps. This also covers scholarships, internships, providing hardware for eSports gaming clubs, and hosting charity showmatches with eSports stars, giving talented players the tools and exposure they need to get noticed. Just last year, for instance, Infinix supported eSports events including the ISANJA School Tournament, Gmr X, and Paris Games Week, with particular focus on growing eSports talent in the African market.
So the GT 30 Pro is more than just a gaming smartphone, it's a symbol of Infinix's hard work in raising the profile of eSports around the world, and fostering the next big Sports talents. By buying this powerfully specced but modestly priced device, you're also signing up to a great gaming cause!
