The leaked image reveals dual cameras positioned in the top left corner of the smartphone’s back panel. Below the camera module, there is a distinctive C-shaped design, followed by another design element near the bottom. These features resemble LED strips, which are known to illuminate on Nothing smartphones.
Exploring the Possibilities: Infinix’s Take on Glyph Interface
While the leaked render does not provide specific details about the LED strips’ functionality, it sparks curiosity regarding how Infinix will implement its own version of the Glyph Interface. The Glyph Interface on the Nothing Phone 2 offers various functionalities, such as creating custom ringtones, assigning specific ringtones to contacts, countdown timer, torch, essential notifications, charging indicator, and volume level indicator. Third-party integrations are also supported, with Uber utilizing the Glyph to display the progress of an upcoming ride.
It remains to be seen whether Infinix will replicate Glyph functionalities or introduce its unique twist to the feature. Notably, this upcoming smartphone is expected to cater to the gaming community. While Nothing Phone 2 utilizes white LEDs for the Glyph Interface, Infinix might opt for RGB lighting to enhance the gaming experience.
New GT Series and Launch Details
Mukul Sharma suggests that Infinix will most likely launch this smartphone under a new GT series branding, distinct from its current Smart, Hot, and Note series. As for the release timeline, the Infinix gaming smartphone is anticipated to hit the Indian market in August. Pricing details indicate that it will be significantly lower than the Nothing Phone 2, which starts at Rs 44,999 for the base 8GB RAM and 128GB storage variant.
