The budget-friendly 5G smartphone is expected to hit the Pakistani market in 2025 shortly after its release in India on 16 August 2025. With 5G support, AI-powered cameras and IP64 dust and water resistance, the Infinix Hot 60i 5G aims to provide premium features at an accessible price for Pakistani consumers.

Launch Date and Price in Pakistan
According to industry sources, the Infinix Hot 60i 5G launch date in Pakistan is expected in late 2025 following its Indian release on 16 August. The expected price in Pakistan will be between Rs38,000 and Rs42,000 positioning it slightly above the Hot 60i 4G model which is currently priced around Rs33,000 locally.
An Infinix Pakistan retail partner told Sahaafii.com:
“The Hot 60i 5G will be one of the most affordable 5G-ready devices in Pakistan with a big battery and durable build. We expect strong demand among students and first-time 5G users.”
Hot 60i 5G vs Hot 60i 4G
The Hot 60i 4G variant launched earlier this year, runs on the Helio G81 Ultra chipset with a 5,160mAh battery and triple-camera design. While it remains a popular entry-level choice, the new 5G version upgrades key areas:
- Processor Upgrade: Dimensity 6400 offers better gaming and multitasking.
- Bigger Battery: 6,000mAh vs 5,160mAh for longer usage.
- Higher Refresh Rate: 120Hz adaptive for smoother visuals.
- Enhanced AI Tools: Circle to Search, AI Eraser, AI Call Translation, AI Wallpaper.
- Improved Durability: IP64 water and dust resistance.
Why It Matters for Pakistan’s Budget 5G Market
Pakistan’s entry-level 5G segment is still small, with most models priced well above Rs50,000. The Hot 60i 5G could bridge this gap, giving consumers access to faster connectivity without stretching budgets. With two-day battery life, expandable storage and affordable pricing, it is designed to meet the needs of students, gig workers and social media creators.
Tech analyst Ahmed Rehman told Sahaafii.com:
“Infinix is targeting the sweet spot for Pakistan — a phone that supports 5G and high-refresh-rate displays but still remains under Rs42,000. This can pressure rivals like Tecno and Xiaomi in the budget segment.”
Availability and Buying Options
Once launched, the Infinix Hot 60i 5G is expected to be available both online and offline in Pakistan through platforms like Daraz, PriceOye and authorized retail stores. Pre-orders may open in select cities within a week of the announcement.
