Infinix Note 60 Pro: My First Look Review

Infinix Note 60 Pro: My First Look Review

The Infinix Note 60 Pro was announced on February 18, 2026, in six colors and two configurations, and it’s one of those phones that grabbed everyone’s attention from the start. Let’s take a closer look and see what all the hype is about.

Design & Build Quality

First off, the Note 60 Pro is slim. At just 7.4mm thick, it’s a supermodel of smartphones. Thanks to the aluminum unibody, it feels like a premium slab of metal in your hand rather than a cheap toy. It weighs in at 201 grams, which gives it enough heft to feel expensive, but not so much that you’ll need a wrist brace after a 10-minute scrolling session.

You can get the Infinix Note 60 Pro in six colors: Mist Titanium, Deep Ocean Blue, Solar Orange, Mocha Brown, Torino Black, and Frost Silver.

Infinix Note 60 Pro Active Matrix Display

The real party piece, though, is the Active Matrix lighting on the back. It’s basically a fancy way of saying your phone has its own built-in light show for notifications. It’s perfect if you miss the 90s Pixel Pet vibe or want your desk to look like a mini-rave every time you get a text. If you’re more of a “leave me alone in the dark” type, don’t worry, you can just turn it off.

As for durability, Infinix gave it an IP64 rating. This is a great safety net for those “oops, it’s raining” moments, but let’s be clear: this phone is splash-proof, not a submarine. It’ll survive a drizzle, but if you drop it in the pool, you’ll be the one doing the diving and probably crying.

Performance

Here is where things get interesting with the Infinix Note 60 Pro. Switching from that old budget MediaTek chip to the Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 is arguably the best decision Infinix has ever made, right up there with deciding to actually put a charger in the box.

It’s fast, I’m talking 1.1 million points on AnTuTu. If you’re a gamer, you get 120FPS support and a cooling system that actually works. It stays about 3 to 5 degrees cooler than the competition, so you can play for hours without feeling like you need oven mitts to hold your phone.

You get 8GB or 12GB of RAM, which makes multitasking smoother than my excuses for being late to work. My only tiny gripe? The UFS 2.2 storage. It’s like having a Ferrari engine but driving on a slightly bumpy road, it’s totally okay for daily use, but tech nerds (like me) might wish for a bit more zip. I wish they’d gone just a bit faster there, but hey, you can’t have everything without selling a kidney.

Display & Audio

Infinix Note 60 Pro 6.78-inch AMOLED display with 144Hz refresh rate

Let’s talk about the Infinix Note 60 Pro’s screen. It’s a 6.78-inch AMOLED panel with a 1.5K resolution that hits 4500 nits. Using this phone outdoors is a breeze; in fact, you could probably use it as a signal flare if you ever get lost.

With a 144Hz refresh rate, everything feels buttery smooth, you might actually forget you’re just looking at a mid-range phone. They’ve also added a Motion Sickness mode for car rides. It’s one of those features you never knew you wanted until you’re staring at a screen while a bus driver takes a corner like he’s in Fast & Furious. It’s quirky, sure, but it shows Infinix is actually thinking about our weird human struggles.

Infinix Note 60 Pro dual speakers tuned by JBL

For the ears, we’ve got dual speakers tuned by JBL. They’re loud and clear. Honestly, it sounds so much better than your average mid-ranger that you might actually stop using your cheap Bluetooth speaker. Your neighbors might not thank you, but your ears will. A solid win for the mid-range category.

Camera

I want to talk about the eyes of the Infinix Note 60 Pro. They’ve branded it the Night Master which sounds like a Batman villain, but it actually earns the title. With an f/1.59 aperture on that 50MP main sensor, it sucks up light like a vacuum, making those typically blurry concert photos look sharp. The OIS is the real hero here, doing the heavy lifting for people like me whose hands shake like they’ve had four espressos before a photoshoot.

You get an 8MP ultrawide for landscapes and the 13MP selfie camera will definitely get you those Instagram likes without making you look like a Minecraft character.

The biggest glow-up here is 4K video on both sides because the Note 50 Pro could not even dream of that. Now, look, don’t go throwing your $2,000 mirrorless camera in the trash just yet; it’s still a phone and it’s not going to shoot a Hollywood blockbuster. But for vlogging your lunch or your cat doing something weird, it’s more than capable.

Battery & Charging

Infinix Note 60 Pro 6500mAh battery

Most flagship phones tap out at 5000mAh. But the Infinix Note 60 Pro packs a 6500mAh battery into its 7.4mm body, which has even more capacity than the Note 50 Pro and its 5200mAh battery.

The real magic trick here is the Self-Healing claim. Infinix says it recovers 1% health every 200 cycles. I’m not saying this phone is a Marvel superhero, but it’s designed to stay healthy for over 6 years. At this rate, the battery might actually outlive my current relationship.

When it does eventually hit zero, the 90W fast charging kicks in like a shot of espresso, getting you to 100% in about 40 minutes. You also get 30W wireless charging, which is a classy touch for a phone in this tier. But for the gamers? The Bypass Charging is the real MVP. It powers the hardware directly, skipping the battery so your phone doesn’t turn into a literal frying pan while you’re mid-match.

Connectivity

The Infinix Note 60 Pro is a 5.5G phone, meaning your internet speed is officially faster than my morning motivation.

They’ve also included eSIM support, which is a godsend for travelers. No more hunting for tiny paperclips in foreign airports or losing your primary SIM card in the depths of your backpack.

Plus, with the 360-degree antenna design, you won’t lose signal just because you’re death-gripping the phone during a heated gaming session. Whether you’re holding it vertically, horizontally, or upside down in a moment of panic, the antenna lines stay full.

OS & Longevity

The Infinix Note 60 Pro runs XOS 16 based on Android 16, and it feels like Infinix finally joined the grown-ups table. I know, I had to rub my eyes too! Infinix used to treat Android updates like optional side quests you never actually finish. But now? The tables have turned. They’re promising 3 years of major OS updates and 5 years of security patches. We’re finally moving past the “buy it and forget it” era. It’s nice to know this phone won’t become a digital fossil by next Tuesday.
