Infinix GT 30 Pro: what's the phone that aims to be a "pocket-sized gaming PC" like?

Infinix , the brand that has been gaining ground in the gaming phone segment, presented the GT 30 Pro in Argentina, a smartphone that not only focuses on power and design, but also arrived in the country in an unusual format: a complete kit that includes two cases, a charger and an external cooler that also works as an additional battery.

The company, which had already been working on positioning itself within the mobile gamer ecosystem since 2024, reinforces with this model its strategy of competing in a niche that is growing in the country thanks to Chinese brands (Tecno Pova or the Nubia Neo and RedMagic).

Furthermore, it provides this demanding user segment with a mobile phone with the technical capacity to become the main platform for playing unlimited games of the world's most downloaded shooting titles, such as Free Fire, PUBG Mobile or Call of Duty Mobile .

As soon as we opened the kit, we found two boxes. In the main one, the GT 30 Pro model, which maintains the visual language of the line: a design with customizable RGB lighting on the back, geometric details, and a futuristic finish reminiscent of desktop hardware .

It is designed for the user who understands the cell phone not only as a tool, but as part of their personal setup .

The idea is that it can accompany other gaming accessories —keyboards, mice, headphones— or function as the main device for playing and creating content.

On the other hand, one of the device's key features is its screen . The GT 30 Pro incorporates a 6.78-inch AMOLED panel with a 144Hz refresh rate and 1.5K resolution.

This combo is aimed squarely at competitive gamers, where the difference between winning and losing is often decided in milliseconds. The high refresh rate is combined with a stable 120 FPS , something not all phones can maintain during extended gaming sessions.

In turn, the level of fluidity is designed for games where precision matters: shooters, racing games and battle royale games manage to get the best out of its technical performance.

In addition, the device incorporates physical triggers on one side, similar to those found on the joysticks of the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, or Nintendo Switch. This provides a more comfortable complement than the buttons on the touchscreen.

In the other box is the key accessory for these types of phones that generate a lot of heat. Infinix includes in its offering an external cooler specifically designed to prevent processor performance drops due to excessive heat.

This accessory also serves the dual purpose of acting as an extra battery , extending battery life during gameplay. In practice, it allows you to keep playing without sacrificing frames per second (FPS), something that is a real advantage for the gaming community.

In addition, there is an internal vapor chamber cooling system, common in this type of phone, which acts on the processor and main components.

The GT 30 Pro also includes X-Arena, Infinix's own gaming hub for organizing all the phone's games. From this panel, you can optimize resources, activate profiles, limit notifications, adjust touch response, or modify the backlighting.

For those who stream from their cell phone or record games for TikTok, X-Arena also integrates tools to capture screens with quality and format settings.

Although the device's focus is gaming, the GT 30 Pro does not neglect other key elements, such as battery capacity and sound.

The phone comes equipped with a 5200 mAh battery with fast, wireless, and reverse charging technology. These three features place it above the capacity of many mid-range phones and on par with premium models. However, it falls short of the 6000 mAh batteries found in the Nubia RedMagic 10 Pro or Nubia Neo 3 GT, which are also available in the country.

The audio is immersive, high-fidelity, calibrated for games with directional detection, and tailored to what gamers want to communicate with others through Discord.

Its main camera, 108 MP, is geared towards those who create gameplay clips to post on TikTok or stream their content live from any streaming platform.

That's why the Infinix GT 30 Pro isn't for everyone. It's aimed at gamers who crave speed, fluidity, a gamer-centric design, and physical control, and who see their phone as their primary gaming console . The kit only reinforces that message: it's not a generic phone, it's a complete tool for digital entertainment.
