Infinix Note 50X Review 2025: Is It Better Value Than vivo T4X & iQOO Z10X?

by

The first time I held an Infinix note 50X on my hand, I could not tell that I was feeling a budget phone. Owing to one week of actual usage, we realized why this phone is exceptional on pricing. For those of you in search of my unbiased Infinix Note 50X Review 2025, well, I cannot provide you with all the information you will need to conclude whether this is the phone you might want to buy, at least as far as its competitors (vivo T4X and iQOO Z10X) are concerned.

Experience and First Impressions

The unboxing experience of the Infinix Note 50X was surprisingly high end concerning the fact that the phone costs less than 12 000 rupees in price. And this is what sits in the box straight out of it:

  • Phone itself
  • Silicon case which is color-matched (not just plain yellow but it actually matches the color of the phone)
  • Temphony charger (45w fast charger)
  • Cable
  • SIM ejecter tool
  • Pre mounted screen guard

No necessity to rush to get basic accessories which on itself is the win at this price range. The silicon case is in the same color as the phone and does not get dark yellow with time. It provides a quite good hold and a bit of extra stylishness and protects the phone.

When I lifted it up the first time, I did not find Note 50X to be very cheap. It survived elements of splashing water and particles due to IP 64. The phone is also military certified (810H) and hence suitable to absorb those inevitable drops or bumps in everyday life.

Stylish Design and Comfortable Ergonomics

Infinix Note 50X design is more than what you expect of a low end gadget.

Distinctive Back and Camera Setup

Infinix did not opt to have the same old iPhone design replica, but, a vehicle leather feel and a new camera design. The subtle design on the back panel which has some reflection and is not a dull block.

There is a blinking halo of a notification light that is situated just beneath the rear camera. I am glad that I did not know that I was in need of this until I got it. When you use your phone face down it lights up when you receive any calls or messages. It is a minor feature but on a budget phone, minor surprises such as this are important.

Thin, Light, and Easy to Hold

Although it weighs 196 grams it does not get heavy or bulky. The fingerprint scanner that is has been well placed at the side worked swiftly and consistently on my behalf. There was not even in a week it never failed or made me slow down.

I did not find it heavy and taxing on my hands even after several hours of usage. I find that the thin profile is important especially to use the phone every day particularly when you keep your phone in your pocket throughout the day.

Software: Big Improvements and Useful AI Features

Older Infinix phones always had their weak character of software. This has changed here and this is by far, the biggest surprise in this “Infinix Note 50X Review 2025”.

Updated Android and XOS 15

Note 50X is an android 15 phone. Infinix commitment is two significant OS updates and three years of safety patches. That is good news especially at such a budget phone.

Their special skin, XOS 15, is smooth. Mountain Lion has a new animation system which does not only look pretty but also feels natural to scroll, read folder contents or release a notification. The dynamic bar on the top is actually better to look and work than some other expensive phones I have used.

Surprising AI Features

Infinix has taken the scaler route with AI functions, which allow you to achieve things that I did not expect in this price range. A couple of you that you are going to use:

  • AI Subject Cut-out: Simply keep your finger on a photo and you can innately cut the major objective, the same way advanced photo editors do.
  • Circle to Search: This one comes in very handy when you are in a hurry to check something up. It works better than I expected.
  • AI Wallpapers: Whenever we have a prompt or an idea, we type it in the phone, and the phone generates a new wallpaper accordingly.
  • AI Writing Corrections: This is the tool that would automatically improve your grammar in case you were writing a message or notes.

All these were practical to everyday life and provided some true value. So, the software here is one of the best reasons to purchase the Note 50X just in case you want to have a phone that looks and feels modern and is useful but at the same time will not hit your pocket hard.

Performance: Fast, Reliable, and Great for Gaming

Time to get to power. Infinix Note 50X is powered by MediaTek Dimensity 7300 Ultimate chip and feature 6GB LPDDR4X RAM in the lowest version that I tested.

Speed and Multitasking

My tests were performed starting on a clean boot, and all the standard apps ran fast, including social, banking, browsing, etc. The performance of the app opening maintained the earlier benchmarks even after disengaging all background apps and the movement between apps was not slow at any juncture. Closely matched to 600,000 Antutu, the performance can be compared to lower-end phones that are more expensive.

Gaming Experience

BGMI had 60fps on the phones of the gamers and the use of the gyro sensor aided in aiming at the game and ability to control more sensitive buttons. I could not find that there was any major heating after extended sessions. Although the graph of CPU throttling did fall to yellow when the game was intense, I never experienced any lags or turning off.

Great Connectivity and Smart Additions

5G Plus brand name made me wonder. One week later with the two sets of SIM cards, I had a 5G connection at all times. Infinix dialer has enabled a silent call and auto call record feature, which is one of the required features by some users.

You are free to use two SIMs or one SIM and microSD card in case you want additional storage.

Call Quality and Microphones

The disadvantage is as follows: there is only a single microphone on the phone. Background noise is not filtered outside as effectively as is the case with dual-mic systems. Remember that when you are in busy streets and making numerous calls or intend to achieve quality audio captures of your videos. I also made samples of audio with and without dual-mic phones and it became obvious that background noise was greatly pronounced by the use of Infinix Note 50X.

Display and Sound: Where This Phone Saves Costs

This price of phone does not get everything right. Infinix played clear-cut decisions with the Note 50X display.

HD+ Display: Pros and Cons

Note 50X boasts of a 6.67 inches HD + (720p) IPS LCD and a 120Hz refresh rate. The following is what works and what does not work:

  • Smoothness: With the help of 120Hz, scrolling and animations are smooth and are responsive.
  • Battery Life: The screen resolution will enable it use less battery power.
  • Sharpness: That is the cost-cutting you feel. The image and texts are not as sharp as on Full HD+ displays.
  • Outdoor Visibility: The brightness reaches to 672 nits, but in the real world, the maximum blasting reaches around 560 nits. The photos might be difficult to see or glance through especially in sunshine.
  • Streaming limitation: you cannot binge in high resolution since Netflix and Prime Video support only 480p streaming (W1 L3 DRM certification).

When you accept HD+, you will obtain the fast and smooth experience. When the main focus is to capture the small details and have the high-quality streaming, you may want to consider other models.

Sound Quality and Missing Headphone Jack

The phone has two stereo speakers. The conversation on the movies comes out in a clear voice except loudness decreases when listening to music on maximum volume. It works well when you are not listening very carefully, however, do not expect any pounding bass.

Battery Life and Fast Charging: A Huge Win

This is where the Note 50X flexes its muscles.

  • The 5500mAh battery is sufficient to give me more than 8 hours of screen-on time on heavy usage over 5G and some gaming.
  • There was minimal overnight battery drain as I experienced a slight drain of only 3 percent in ten hours with network and no apps.
  • The phone can be charged up to 100 percent (0 to 100 in 70min) on a 45W fast charger.

The lower 720p screen translates to shorter power consumption, which actually allows making best use of the large battery. This is a dream come true to anyone trying to avoid charges in the morning and having to live charge-free until the close of day.

Camera and Video: Reliable Photos in Good Light

Here’s what you get on the camera front:

  • Rear: 50MP main sensor
  • Front: 8MP selfie camera

Daylight Performance

I was amazed with colors and skin tones. Photos are also fresh and relatively lifelike, and good HDR in highlights and shadows. It is in detail where you see the gap. When you zoom into the shots, you realise that it is soft, and this restriction shows more tangibly in mid-range and affordable devices such as this one.

Portrait and Low Light

The portrait mode did alright, but did not nail edge detection all the time. Background blur is okay but once again there is no fine detail.

Colors remain pretty good in dim light or indoor conditions, but the details get lost, and there is a lot of noise. Good results are provided when it comes to Instagram or casual posts.

Video Recording

The video recorded with the rear camera supports a maximum of 4K at 30 fps, which is also well-stabilized, something that many smartphones of this cost cannot do.

Selfie Camera

Although front selfies have correct skin tones, they lack details. HDR (to deal with backlight) is not much. Even gentler results are in low light. Video recording can only go 2K 30fps and is fairly stable.

Conclusion

This is the current price of Infinix Note 50X, or you can find several offers under it with a specific bank card required to buy and get it about 2000 rupees cheaper (outliers down to ₹10,500). Priced as it is, it is a very balanced package with only some compromises.
