What we like about Infinix Note 50 Pro Plus 5G (12GB + 256GB)

  • Premium feel and design, featuring a glass-metal body and slim bezels (Armor Alloy frame), with an IP64 rating for dust and splash resistance.
  • Excellent value for money, offering features usually found on more expensive flagship phones.
  • Very fast 100W wired charging and the rare inclusion of 50W wireless charging support.
  • Solid performance for daily use and gaming, thanks to the MediaTek Dimensity 8350 chipset and effective cooling system, with many users finding it lag-free even on demanding titles like Call of Duty Mobile.
  • High-quality 6.78-inch Full HD+ AMOLED display with a smooth 144Hz refresh rate, vibrant colors, and good brightness for outdoor use.
  • Versatile and capable camera system, including a 50MP main sensor with OIS and a functional 3x optical periscope telephoto lens, producing sharp photos in good lighting and detailed night shots.
  • JBL-tuned stereo speakers provide clear and loud audio, enhancing the multimedia experience.
  • Useful extra features like a heart rate sensor, an IR blaster (to control appliances), NFC, Wi-Fi 6 support, and various AI enhancements.
  • Comes with essential accessories in the box, including the fast charger and a case.

What we don't like about Infinix Note 50 Pro Plus 5G (12GB + 256GB)

  • The software update policy is a major concern for users, as Infinix only promises two major OS updates and past experiences suggest updates might be slow or non-existent.
  • The camera performance can be inconsistent, with some users experiencing autofocus issues at higher zoom levels (beyond 6x digital zoom) and color variations between different lenses.
  • Battery life is considered average to decent, but it can drain quickly under heavy usage like graphic-intensive gaming or when using the hotspot feature, which can also cause significant heating.
  • Some users find the phone a bit heavy due to its metal frame and the physical buttons feel slightly too soft, leading to potential mistouches.
  • The display's HDR implementation is lacking and audio quality, while loud, can lack bass and clarity at maximum volumes.
  • No eSIM support and some users have reported occasional general lagging issues after several months of use.

Verdict

The Infinix Note 50 Pro Plus 5G (12GB + 256GB) is a feature-rich mid-range smartphone, offering flagship-level specifications such as a 6.78-inch, 144Hz AMOLED display and a powerful MediaTek Dimensity 8350 Ultimate processor. Key characteristics include a versatile triple-camera system with 50MP main and 3x optical zoom periscope lenses, a substantial 5200mAh battery, and exceptionally fast 100W wired and 50W wireless charging capabilities. Pros are its premium glass-metal build with IP64 splash resistance, UFS 4.0 storage, JBL-tuned stereo speakers, and useful features like an IR blaster and rear RGB notification lighting. Potential cons include the lack of a microSD card slot or eSIM support, average battery life in some use cases, and the limitation to only two major OS updates.
