The India variant of the Infinix Hot 40i has had key camera and display details leaked alongside live images.
The Infinix Hot 40i is rumored to come with up to 256GB of onboard storage.
Infinix Hot 40i was first unveiled in November 2023 in Saudi Arabia and has since become available in select markets globally. However, it has yet to launch in India. The company is yet to confirm the launch of the model in the country, but recent leaks have suggested that the model may be available in the Indian market soon. Previously some launch details alongside a few features of the Indian variant of the handset were tipped. Now a tipster shared live images of the model and suggested key camera and display specifications.
Tipster Mukul Sharma (@stufflistings) claimed in a post on X (formerly Twitter) that the Infinix Hot 40i is expected to launch in India with a segment-first 32-megapixel selfie camera and a 90Hz display with a centred hole-punch slot to hold the front camera sensor. The handset is also said to come with a 50-megapixel dual rear camera system alongside a Quad-LED ring flash unit.

The tipster also added that the Indian version of the Infinix Hot 40i is likely to launch in four colour options, similar to its global variant. Palm Blue is confirmed to be one of the shades. The back panel of the handset is tipped to feature a vibrant glow design that will likely offer a colour-changing effect under natural light.
Previously, the Infinix Hot 40i was tipped to launch in 8GB+128GB and 8GB+256GB configurations. It is also said to be the cheapest 256GB smartphone in India. The phone is likely to launch in the first half of February and be available for purchase in the country via Flipkart.
The global variant of the Infinix Hot 40i is available in Horizon Gold, Palm Blue, Starlit Black, and Starfall Green color options. It is priced at SAR 375 (approximately Rs. 8,300) for the 4GB+128GB variant and SAR 465 (approximately Rs. 10,300) for the 8GB+256GB variant.
The Indian variant of the Infinix Hot 40i is expected to have similar specifications to its global counterpart. This includes a 6.56-inch HD+ (720×1,612) display, a MediaTek Helio G88 SoC, and a 5,000mAh battery with 18W wired charging support. It is also likely to run on Android 13-based UI.
