How the Infinix GT 30 Pro CARRRRRRYs It All in the Gaming Arena
Gaming phones often come with sky-high prices and features that feel out of reach. The Infinix GT 30 Pro, launched in May 2025, shifts that narrative. Priced under $300, it's been making waves across social media — not with hype, but with one bold rallying call: #CARRRRRRY. More than just a hashtag, #CARRRRRRY is a performance-first mindset built into every part of the GT 30 Pro. Designed for gamers who lead, climb, and dominate, it reflects six core pillars: Rank, Rule, Raid, Resource, Reputation, and Reward. Resource goes beyond in-game assets — it's about managing time, energy, and gear to stay prepared for whatever comes next. Equipped with GT Trigger tactile controls, the All-Day Full FPS system, MagCharge active cooling, and the MagCase, the GT 30 Pro is built to help you carry every match, mission, and moment in between. For many who've tried it, the GT 30 Pro delivers exactly what gamers need at every level — from first-time players to seasoned competitors, on the battlefield and beyond. The GT 30 Pro's All-Day Full FPS System is a dual-layered solution — hardware and software working in sync to CARRRRRRY sustained high performance rates across any game scenario. Designed for stability, responsiveness, and thermal balance, it supports up to 144 FPS in titles like Standoff 2, with ray tracing enriching lighting and textures. Its system intelligently balances CPU and GPU workloads to ensure steady frame rates throughout long, intense sessions — no stutter, no lag, just consistent play. When paired with the MagCase and MagCharge Cooler, the system activates Draco Mode — a performance state that boosts processing efficiency and intensifies active cooling. Combined with the 3D Vapor Cloud Chamber Cooling system, which improves heat dissipation by 20% and lowers core temperature by 3°C, this setup keeps the device performing under pressure. Relentless is the right word. This system maintains peak performance not just in short bursts, but across long, demanding sessions. That unwavering consistency becomes the foundation of CARRRRRRY: dependable performance that lets you compete harder, longer, and with greater confidence. GT 30 Pro doesn't rely on external accessories to deliver pro-level controls. With GT Trigger, it offers built-in, capacitive shoulder buttons that feel like a natural part of the device. These are responsive, pressure-free, and ready out of the box—no extra setup required. For pro gamers, this means fewer distractions and faster execution. For beginners, it removes the intimidation of complex controls. No extra gear, no steep learning curve. Just tap and go. GT Trigger bridges the gap between casual play and competitive gaming, helping users develop skills and build confidence. It resolves the long-standing dilemma of mid-range gaming: how to offer high performance without overcomplicating things. Beyond gaming, these triggers also serve as shortcuts in daily life—launching the camera, recording video, opening apps. That kind of thoughtful integration CARRRRRRYs efficiency into everyday use. Design matters, especially to the new generation of gamers. The Mechanical Light Waves Design gives the GT 30 Pro a distinct, mecha-inspired look with RGB lighting that reacts to your activity — whether it's a call, a music beat, or a finishing move. These lights do more than flash. They signal energy and style, forming a visual rhythm that matches the user's playstyle. The glow brings purpose to aesthetics, acting as a visual extension of the player's style and mood. For many, it reflects a sense of presence, of radiance. A confidence that doesn't need to be spoken aloud. This radiance speaks to the inner energy of today's players — the power that shines through not just in wins, but in the way they show up, play, and express themselves. It's the light of individuality, pulsing across TikTok setups, livestreams, and shared highlight reels. That's why #CARRRRRRY has taken hold. The GT 30 Pro becomes a rallying point — not just for what it can do, but for how it represents the player behind it. The GT 30 Pro becomes more than just a device — it becomes part of the gamer's identity. Modern gamers live across screens. Infinix embraces this with GT VERSE — a coordinated hardware ecosystem designed for fluid, cross-device play. With the XPAD GT tablet powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon chipset, GTPOWER 55W power bank, GTBUDS 4 earbuds, and MagCharge Cooler, the pieces work together in form and function. Shared aesthetics, unified connectivity, and synced experiences make it easier to build a personalized setup. This ecosystem rekindles the joy of assembling gear that fits together — like the thrill of upgrading your first gaming rig. GT VERSE doesn't overwhelm. It CARRRRRRYs that next step forward for those ready to deepen their experience. In 2025, the GT 30 Pro reached a new milestone in esports credibility. For the third consecutive year, Infinix has been chosen as an official tournament phone by international esports organizers. But this year marks a breakthrough: it's the first time the GT 30 Pro serves simultaneously as the official device for multiple global tournaments across both PUBG MOBILE and MLBB titles. This recognition doesn't come from marketing — it's earned through real-world performance under competitive pressure. Stable FPS, responsive controls, and heat management have made it a trusted tool on the international stage. At the same time, Infinix is building new platforms for talent development. The Infinix Campus Cup (XCC), launched this year, brings exciting competitive experiences to student gamers, fostering campus-level enthusiasm across Southeast Asia and Africa. Meanwhile, the upcoming GT Pro-Game Talent initiative lays the groundwork for long-term development—aimed at empowering future esports players through training, support, and access to tools that help them grow into tomorrow's champions. In this dual role—trusted by the pros and invested in the next generation—the GT 30 Pro carries more than performance. It carries a growing reputation grounded in action. Every detail in the GT 30 Pro feels intentional, designed to meet real gaming needs rather than chase specs for the sake of it. For budget-conscious gamers, it's a reward to finally access high-end specs without compromise. The All-Day Full FPS System and GT Trigger offer smoother, more satisfying gameplay—an experience that feels like a reward in itself. The GT VERSE extends that feeling even further, supporting gamers who seek a more connected, immersive setup. And for those following Infinix's rise in the competitive scene, the phone's recognition by top tournaments is a reward for their trust. They're no longer spectators to innovation. They're part of it. This is what it means to CARRRRRRY—not just to perform, but to lift others with you. The GT 30 Pro doesn't chase trends. It sets new ground and empowers players to go further.

Infinix GT 30 Pro Review: A pocket-friendly gaming phone with capacitive triggers
Gaming phones are often associated with premium price tags, but with mid-range phones getting better and faster every year, gone are the days when you had to spend a ton of money to play the latest and greatest Android titles. Infinix recently launched the GT 30 Pro, a mid-range gaming phone with a unique design and capacitive shoulder triggers, a feature rarely seen in this price bracket. I have been testing the phone for about two weeks, and here's what I like and don't like about Infinix's latest gaming phone. The Infinix GT 30 has a rather unique design that makes it stand out in a segment full of phones with faux leather backs. I received the Blade White version of the phone, which looks and feels futuristic despite the plastic back panel. As one would expect from a gaming phone, the back panel has a lot going on with all sorts of geometric patterns. Arranged in a diamond shape, there are a total of four LED strips, which consist of two long lights and two shorter ones. And while you cannot customise the colours and how the panel lights up, Infinix lets you choose if you want the back panel to light up when you receive calls, get notifications or launch a game. Compared to the one I have, the black coloured variant, which Infinix calls Dark Flare, gives off a more gaming phone vibe. Another difference between the two is that the black colourway actually comes with RGB, which Infinix lets you customise to a certain extent. Despite having a plastic frame and back, the Infinix GT 30 does not feel like a plasticky piece of slab but instead makes you feel like you are holding a premium device. This is something I appreciate since most performance-oriented, mid–range devices cut down on build quality and feel like you are holding a budget phone. Also, the back panel has a matte finish, which offers an excellent grip. I am pretty clumsy and prone to dropping things, but not once did I feel like the phone would slip out of my hand. The left side of the phone does not have much going on. Like most modern Android phones, you get slightly raised volume buttons and a power button with an orange accent on the right side. However, the highlight of the phone is the two capacitive shoulder triggers, which is something I have only seen on premium devices like the ROG Phone 8 and the iPhone 16 series. And while you can set these capacitive triggers to perform certain actions like launching the camera app, it does not support swipe gestures. Infinix lets you map these capacitive triggers to on-screen buttons in games, and they are pretty easy to access and work the way they should. And while I don't play BGMI regularly, I noticed that using the capacitive button to toggle the scope when shooting was faster than tapping on the awkwardly placed on-screen button. Coming to the display, the Infinix GT 30 Pro sports a huge 6.78-inch LTPS AMOLED screen with a refresh rate of 144Hz and 1.5K resolution. Infinix says the phone can go up to 1,600 nits on bright days. The phone's screen was pretty much readable even on Delhi's hottest days. As for the picture quality, it is on par with other devices in the price bracket, and there's nothing I would want more from a mid-range gaming phone. The Infinix GT 30 Pro offers IP64 dust and water resistance, which means it can easily handle water splashes, but be careful of submerging it underwater. You also get an IR blaster on the top, which is something I cherish a lot. The Infinix GT 30 Pro is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 8350 Ultimate chipset, which the company claims has an AnTuTu score of 1.5 million. While I was unable to reach the advertised score, the phone did easily handle whatever I threw at it. I spent hours playing the latest and greatest Android titles like Wuthering Waves, Genshin Impact, Diablo Immortal, Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, CarX Street, Wreckfest, Honkai Star Rail, GRID Legends and others at the maximum settings available, and rarely did I feel like the phone had trouble keeping up. That said, the phone did get warm, especially around the camera island. I suspect this might be because the chipset is located in that area, since the frame wasn't too hot or uncomfortable to hold even after long gaming sessions. My Infinix GT 30 Pro review unit came with 12GB of RAM, which definitely helps with multitasking. However, since most modern AAA Android games occupy anywhere between 5GB to 30GB, you might quickly run out of space if you, like me, install many games. Apart from popular Android titles, I also tested some emulators like RPCSX to run the PlayStation 2 version of God of War. If you are into emulation and often find yourself playing older Switch, NES and PlayStation titles, the Dimensity 8350 will suffice for your needs. Coming to the software, the Infinix GT 30 Pro comes with XOS 15 based on Android 15 out of the box. With its latest Android skin, Infinix seems to be taking inspiration from HyperOS, as the quick settings panel looks quite similar. The phone is also filled to the brim with several features. Like OnePlus and Oppo phones, you get a sidebar that lets you quickly launch apps in a floating window and see recent images and documents. It also packs in numerous useful AI features like Call Assistant, Translation Assistant, Auto Answer Calls, Social Assistant, Document Assistant, and Writing Assistant, to name a few. To make them easily accessible, all of these generative AI-powered features can be found under Infinix AI in the Settings app. Performance is quite smooth, and not once did I face any bugs or issues with the software. And while XOS 15 is far from the best Android skins in terms of features and design, the animations are on par with Samsung, Moto and OnePlus phones. Compared to other smartphone manufacturers like Samsung and OnePlus, which offer a fluid, feature-packed user interface, XOS 15 might feel meh, but it is good for regular users. The Infinix GT 30 Pro sports a dual camera setup that consists of a 108MP primary shooter and an 8MP ultrawide sensor. This means that you will be missing out on a telephoto lens, but that is the case with most mid-range performance-oriented phones in the price bracket. During the day, the primary camera takes detailed and crisp photos, but they may look oversaturated to some. Also, like most mid-range devices, the 8MP ultrawide shooter is average at best, with photos coming out soft and sometimes lacking details. At nighttime, the primary camera takes decent pictures, and you might find yourself wanting more from the main sensor. Low-light photos shot using the ultrawide lens are, again, average at best. As for the video, the Infinix GT 30 Pro's main 108MP camera can shoot videos in up to 4K at 60fps, which is great, but the optical image stabilisation isn't that great. The Infinix GT 30 Pro packs in a modest 5,500mAh battery that supports 45W wired and 30W wireless charging. You also get 10W reserved wired and 5W reserved wireless charging, which is unusual for a mid-range device. Since this is a gaming device, Infinix has also included bypass charging, which is useful for gamers who play for hours on end. The 5,500mAh battery might feel small compared to the new wave of phones packing in the Silicon Carbon tech, but the Infinix GT 30 Pro easily offered me a full day's charge, and not once was I anxious about the phone shutting down. If you are playing games on the go, expect the phone to last somewhere between four to six hours. All in all, this is a solid device if you don't mind plugging in the phone before bedtime. Mid-range gaming phones are quite rare, but in the last couple of years, smartphone companies like Poco have been upping the game by offering some excellent value for money devices. The Infinix GT 30 Pro caters to users who want a gaming phone without breaking the bank. While it does miss out on a telephoto sensor, the phone makes up for it with its capacitive shoulder triggers, which have never been seen before on a device in this price bracket. With a starting price tag of Rs 24,999, the Infinix GT 30 Pro is a really good deal if you are looking for a gaming phone that can run all the latest titles, has a unique design, a premium look and feel, and supports wireless charging. However, hardcore gamers who want more performance can also look at some recently launched devices like the Poco F7 or the slightly older and more expensive Realme GT6, which comes with a dedicated telephoto shooter.

Infinix GT 30 Pro review: Fast, flashy, and fine-tuned for gaming on a budget
Infinix GT 30 Pro review: Gaming phones aren't just flagships anymore, mid-range options now pack enough punch for serious play, and Infinix seems to be aiming right at that space with its latest device - the GT 30 Pro, a follow-up to last year's GT 20 Pro. This new model offers enhanced performance, design, camera and battery capacity, and is aimed at those who want a high-performance gaming device without paying flagship prices. Infinix GT 30 Pro is priced at Rs. 26,999 for the 12GB RAM and 256GB storage variant.(Ijaj Khan/ HT) One of the standout additions is a pair of built-in shoulder triggers, something rarely seen in this price bracket. It also comes with a dedicated game centre offering various controls typically seen in higher-end devices. While the specs look promising on paper, real-world use can reveal a different picture. In this review, I'll explore how the phone handles long gaming sessions, multitasking, and performs with everyday tasks. If you want a clear look at what the GT 30 Pro offers for gaming and beyond, this review covers it all. Infinix GT 30 Pro Review: Design Infinix has taken a direct approach with the GT 30 Pro - this is a phone that speaks to gamers without subtlety. Its rear panel, based on what the brand calls Cyber Mecha 2.0, clearly borrows inspiration from high-performance gaming machines. From the moment you pick it up, its design hints at its performance-first intentions. Infinix GT 30 Pro comes in two finishes: Blade White and Dark Flare, and I received the latter for the review. It has a darker tone with red accents around the camera and subtle RGB lighting, which clearly indicates its gaming purpose without being excessive. Unlike many gaming phones that try to mask their intent with flashy designs, the Infinix GT 30 Pro fully owns its gaming identity. It features RGB lighting, shoulder triggers, and red accents near the camera, which gives you an option to showcase its gaming nature or keep a low profile when needed. Also read: Samsung Galaxy S25 review: Flagship features in a handful package On the other hand, the back panel uses polycarbonate with a matte finish, which gives a solid grip and resists the device from accidental slips during intense gaming sessions. Additionally, despite its bold look and gamer-centric design, the handset maintains a slim 7.99 mm profile and weighs just 188 grams, which makes it comfortable to hold over long periods of gaming sessions. Infinix GT 30 Pro Cyber Mecha 2.0. (Ijaj Khan/HT) Furthermore, the phone's layout includes well-positioned power and volume buttons on the side, and they are easy to reach. At the bottom, it offers a Type-C charging port, a SIM card slot, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and a speaker. The top edge carries an additional speaker, a small IR blaster, and a secondary microphone, the IR blaster being a practical feature not always found in this segment and is so useful for controlling devices remotely. The GT 30 Pro clearly identifies itself as a gaming phone but manages to maintain a level of subtlety that lets it fit in everyday situations without standing out too much. Infinix GT 30 Pro Review: Display and Sound Infinix GT 30 Pro display. (Ijaj Khan/HT) The Infinix GT 30 Pro sports a 6.78-inch LTPS AMOLED display with 1.5K resolution and a smooth 144Hz refresh rate. That high refresh rate truly stands out when scrolling through menus or during fast-paced games. Everything feels responsive and fluid. But a quick heads-up: not all apps fully support 144Hz. For instance, in BGMI, you're limited to 120Hz, so running the display at 144Hz doesn't always bring extra benefits and can drain battery faster. The display gets seriously bright, peaking at 4,500 nits, which made it easy for me to read content even under direct sunlight. However, the adaptive brightness sensor didn't always respond immediately. Sometimes, the phone took a few seconds to adjust when switching from dark to bright environments, particularly after waking from standby. It wasn't a deal-breaker, but noticeable during outdoor use. Although the colour reproduction felt well-balanced while streaming content or gaming. It didn't oversaturate the visuals. Also read: Oppo Reno 13 Pro 5G review: Well-balanced smartphone with AI smarts, but not without trade-offs On the other hand, Infinix has introduced a feature called the Dynamic Bar, somewhat like the iPhone's Dynamic Island. It shows important info in a neat strip, and you can customise it for things like Face Unlock animations, call info, charging status, or Spotify. It's a thoughtful addition for quick access to key details. Moreover, the display comes with a Corning Gorilla Glass 7i protection, which protects the display against scratches and drops. Switching gears to sound, the dual stereo speakers deliver surprisingly loud and clear audio, supported by DTS Sound and Hi-Res Audio certification. I tested some EDM tracks and didn't feel the need for earphones. At max volume, the phone's back vibrates with sound, creating an immersive listening experience. On the sound front, the GT 30 Pro delivers solid performance with its dual stereo speakers backed by DTS Sound and Hi-Res Audio certification. The speakers get loud enough to fill a room, and the back of the phone vibrates noticeably at full volume, which gives you a more immersive audio experience. I tested it with some different generres songs and a few EDM tracks and didn't feel the need to reach for headphones. Infinix GT 30 Pro 5G Review: Software The Infinix GT 30 Pro runs on Android 15 with XOS 15 on top. It offers several customisation features and AI tools designed to simplify daily tasks. The Folax Assistant lets you control the phone with voice commands, while the AI Note and Writing Assistant aim to boost productivity. For photos, the AI Eraser and AI Cutout tools help refine images quickly. Additionally, the gamers get a dedicated GT Gaming Dashboard, which includes features like FPS monitoring, trigger mapping, and touch sensitivity settings. Moreover, the Infinix promises two OS updates and three security patches, which aligns with what you'd expect in this price range. Also read: iPhone 16 review: Solid design, performance with a few unmet expectations Infinix GT 30 Pro Review: Performance Playing BGMI on high settings. (Ijaj Khan/HT) The Infinix GT 30 Pro makes its mark where it matters most for gamers: performance. The device is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 8350 Ultimate chipset, built with a 4nm process, and is paired with the Mali-G615 MC6 GPU. This combo gives the GT 30 Pro a solid edge over many competitors in its price range. Additionally, you have two RAM options: 8GB or 12GB of LPDDR5X RAM, coupled with 256GB UFS 4.0 storage. You can expand virtual RAM by an additional 8GB or 12GB, depending on the model. But numbers only tell part of the story. In real life, this phone handles heavy games impressively well. I tested a few demanding titles like BGMI, Free Fire, and Genshin Impact at high settings, and the GT 30 Pro kept up without any major hiccups. It consistently hit an average of 116 FPS, sometimes even reaching 120 FPS. Krafton's official certification for 120 FPS gameplay in BGMI is a clear nod to the phone's gaming chops, and that really matters if you want smooth, responsive gameplay without breaking the bank. Although after about an hour of an intense gaming session, the phone did heat up around the upper back, which is expected given the hardware involved. Still, I didn't notice any significant drop in performance, so it handles long gaming sessions better than I anticipated. GT Triggers(Ijaj Khan/HT) One feature I found genuinely useful is the GT Triggers. Unlike regular physical buttons, these touch-sensitive triggers sit at the top corners of the screen and can be assigned to any in-game action, like shooting or jumping. Setting them up is simple: just drag the function to the trigger area, and you're set. It made gameplay smoother since I didn't have to constantly tap on the screen. The triggers respond quickly, which is essential for games that need fast reactions. Also read: Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra review: Almost the perfect Android flagship On top of that, the phone offers bypass charging, a dedicated sports mode, and touch optimisations, along with a voice changer feature that adds a fun twist to gaming sessions. On benchmarks, the Infinix GT 30 Pro 5G holds its ground with an AnTuTu score of 13,02,144 and GeekBench 6 results of 985 (single-core) and 3548 (multi-core). In the 3DMark Wild Life Extreme Stress Test, it scored 2,847, with 79.4% stability. But when compared to other phones in the same price range, many offer better performance, especially with Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chips. Infinix GT 30 Pro's benchmark test results. (Ijaj Khan/HT) The Infinix GT 30 Pro also includes MediaTek's Hyper Engine and the X-Boost Gaming Engine. These work together to reduce latency and control device temperature. The 6-layer 3D Vapour Chamber Cooling system helps keep things from getting too hot during extended play or when using the device in Delhi's hot weather. X-Boost Gaming Engine Infinix GT 30 Pro Review: Camera The Infinix GT 30 Pro features a 108MP rear camera, an 8MP ultra-wide camera, and a 13MP front camera.(Ijaj Khan/HT) The Infinix GT 30 Pro doesn't try to impress with flashy camera features, but it handles the essentials quite well. It comes with a 108MP main camera, an 8MP ultra-wide, and a 13MP front camera for selfies. In daylight settings, the primary camera captures images with accurate colours and clear details. The AI helps sharpen photos and balance contrast, which keeps colours close to natural and without making it oversaturated. The ultra-wide lens offers additional framing options but does not significantly stand out. Additionally, the portrait mode applies background blur effectively but struggles with edge detection around complex subjects like hair and shoulders. On the other hand, the front camera performs well under good lighting conditions and delivers sharp selfies with low noise. In low light, selfies show some grain, but AI enhancements help improve dynamic range and overall clarity. To be fair, Infinix isn't pushing this as a camera-centric phone. It's more about gaming and performance. But for a device priced around Rs. 25,000, the camera performance fits the bill for everyday use without major complaints. It won't wow you, but it won't let you down either. Infinix GT 30 Pro 5G Review: Battery Life and Charging Battery health. (Ijaj Khan/HT) The Infinix GT 30 Pro 5G houses a 5,500mAh battery with 45W wired charging, 30W wireless charging, and support for 10W reverse wired and 5W reverse wireless charging. It also includes bypass charging, which powers the device directly through the charger without routing through the battery. That came in handy during long gaming sessions and will let you stay plugged in without adding strain to the battery. Also read: Tecno Phantom V Fold 2 review: Promising foldable but far from benchmark Furthermore, the GT 30 Pro got me through my usual routine, like gaming, taking calls, and scrolling through social media on a single charge. I didn't need to plug it in until the end of the day. Also, it took me to recharge the device from 0 to 50% in around 25 to 30 minutes, and it fully juiced up in about an hour. Moreover, the 45W charger that comes in the box did the job well. I also liked that I could charge my other gadgets with the phone while on the go Final Verdict The Infinix GT 30 Pro offers solid value for its price, especially if gaming tops your priority list. Features like 144Hz display, shoulder triggers, bypass charging, and reliable performance make it a good pick for budget-conscious gamers with a flagship-level feel. Its design and extras like wireless charging and Dynamic Bar add to the overall appeal. However, if camera quality, build quality and a cleaner software experience are more of a priority for you, you may wish to consider other alternatives that offer better value for money in the same price range. Though at around Rs. 25,000, the phone justifies its price by focusing on what it claims to do well - gaming.

Infinix aims to be known as gaming-first brand, eyes tier 2, tier 3 cities: India CEO
With mobile gaming booming in India, smartphone makers are racing to capture a slice of the action. Among them is Transsion sub-brand Infinix, which is now positioning itself as a gaming-first company in a market crowded with performance-driven phones. The company, which recently launched the GT 30 Pro in India, is now doubling down on its push to reach mobile gamers. 'We want to be known as the gaming-first brand,' Anish Kapoor, CEO of Infinix India, told Mint in a recent conversation. Citing industry data, Kapoor estimates there are now close to 600 million gamers in India, and says the market is evolving rapidly. 'It's growing phenomenally well in India,' he said. 'We want to be part of that journey… we are looking at building up that community and giving that journey to people probably in tier 2, tier 3 as well. Wherein they see it as an aspiration to be an e-sport gamer as it is a recognized medal sport now.' While many smartphone brands focus on raw specs to appeal to gamers, Kapoor said Infinix's approach is more holistic. 'They are talking about performance — we will bring you X chipset and that's the first thing, and that chipset is equal to gaming,' he said. 'If you look at the design language of the phone or anything else… our understanding of gaming is much different from what we have seen for these brands.' Kapoor believes a gamer's identity extends beyond the hardware specs. 'I think people want to look like a gamer, they want to be identified as a gamer. It is not that they are just carrying a normal phone and they think it's a gaming phone,' he said. 'So we are trying to build in a personality as well when we look at the overall capability of the phone.' With the new GT 30 Pro, Kapoor said Infinix wanted to take things further. The phone includes dedicated gaming triggers and improved haptics, features he claims are typically reserved for far more expensive phones. 'We are trying to bring a console-level experience,' he said. 'Putting gaming triggers in the phone and bringing it down to 26,000 or 27,000 rupees is not easy. You usually only see this in phones priced at 50,000 or higher.'
