The upcoming Infinix Hot 60 Pro+ is set to challenge Samsung’s Galaxy S25 Edge with an impressive engineering feat: cramming a 5,160 mAh battery into a body that’s just 5.95mm thick.
For comparison, Samsung’s slightly thinner S25 Edge at 5.8mm can only fit a 3,900 mAh battery, giving Infinix about 25% more capacity in nearly the same space.
The secret lies in Silicon-Carbon battery technology, which stores more energy than traditional lithium-ion cells.
This technology incorporates silicon into the battery’s anode structure, allowing it to hold more lithium ions than conventional graphite anodes.
Meanwhile, the carbon component prevents the silicon from degrading during charge cycles, maintaining battery longevity.
This isn’t just about bigger numbers. The Hot 60 Pro+ weighs only 154.6 grams compared to the Galaxy S25 Edge’s 163.8 grams, making it both more powerful and lighter than Samsung’s flagship.
The larger battery capacity means genuine all-day usage even with intensive activities and provides a buffer against the natural degradation that occurs over time.
While most phones show noticeable battery decline after 18-24 months, the Hot 60 Pro+ should maintain satisfactory performance well into its third year.
Infinix is also planning faster charging than the Hot 50 Pro+’s 33W capability, easily outpacing the Galaxy S25 Edge’s modest 25W charging speed.
If Infinix is successful in this endeavor, this could pressure other manufacturers to adopt similar Silicon-Carbon technology, potentially ending the era where ultra-thin phones meant ultra-short battery life.
Scheduled for a July launch alongside the Helio G200 Ultimate processor debut, the Infinix Hot 60 Pro+ could be a major step forward in smartphone battery engineering.
