Infinix has officially expanded its smartphone lineup in Nepal with the debut of the Infinix Hot 70. Arriving as the successor to the Hot 60 series, this budget-friendly device brings an eye-catching design along with solid internal hardware, including a thermo-reactive rear surface, a massive battery, and a smooth high-refresh-rate display.
Thermo-Reactive Design and Display
The smartphone features a sleek flat frame paired with a glossy back panel and a prominent rectangular camera bump. Its standout aesthetic feature is the thermo-reactive back panel, which transforms from a deep orange shade to a vibrant, brighter orange depending on ambient temperature changes. Note that this color-shifting capability is exclusive to the "Thermo Orange" option. The phone measures 7.49 mm in thickness, weighs approximately 195 grams, and holds an IP65 rating for dust and splash protection. Other available shades include Green Texture, Quiet Violet, Dive Blue, Silver Dancer, and Night Pulse.
Up front, the Hot 70 sports a large 6.78-inch IPS LCD panel offering a resolution of 720 × 1576 pixels and a fluid 120Hz refresh rate. It reaches up to 700 nits in High Brightness Mode (HBM) for outdoor viewing and carries TÜV Rheinland Low Blue Light certification to protect your eyes during extended screen time.
Performance, Software, and Optics
Powering the handset is the 6nm MediaTek Helio G100 Ultimate processor coupled with a Mali-G57 GPU, catering to light gaming and daily multitasking. Memory configurations offer up to 8GB of RAM and up to 256GB of onboard storage. On the software side, the device ships with XOS 16 based on Android 16 out of the box, with promises of three major OS updates and five years of security patches.
For optics, the phone houses a dual camera setup on the rear, highlighted by a 50MP main sensor with an f/1.85 aperture and autofocus, alongside an auxiliary lens. Selfies are handled by an 8MP front-facing camera with an f/2.0 aperture, complemented by a dual-LED flash and a multi-purpose "Halo Lighting" ring for notification alerts.
Battery, Charging, and Price in Nepal
Keeping the device powered is a heavy-duty 6,000mAh battery that supports 45W wired charging. It also supports 10W reverse charging to top up other gadgets, along with bypass charging technology.
The official price of the Infinix Hot 70 in Nepal starts at NPR 33,999 for the 6GB/128GB configuration, while the 8GB/128GB option costs NPR 36,999. The device is currently available through retail mobile outlets across the country.
