The Infinix Xpad is an affordable 4G-connected tablet from last year. Now the company is introducing a GT model, which is aimed at gamers on a budget and it achieves its value-for-money goal with an unexpected pick for a chipset.
The Infinix Xpad GT is powered by the Snapdragon 888 – yes, the 5nm chip from the end of 2021 that powered so many flagship phones back in its day. The chip is paired with a large vapor chamber for cooling, 8GB of RAM and 256GB storage.
While the Adreno 660 is no spring chicken, it still promises high frame rate gaming. Infinix claims that the Xpad GT can deliver 144fps on Standoff 2, 120fps on Honor of Kings and Mobile Legends and 90fps on PUBG.
The tablet is equipped with a large 13” display with 144Hz refresh rate. It’s a 10-bit panel with HDR10 support, 2,880 x 1,840px resolution and 700 nits peak brightness.
For gaming and streaming, the tablet features 8 speakers and 3D sound with DTS processing. There’s no headphone jack, but Infinix has included a USB-C to 3.5mm adapter and a vegan leather protective case in the box.
Free USB-C to 3.5mm adapter and case • Optional keyboard and stylus
There are two accessories that are sold separately – a keyboard with a trackpad and a stylus, so you can use this for work too, not just play.
The GT slate has a slender metal body that measures 6.5mm thick and houses a 10,000mAh battery. That battery supports 33W charging. There is a 13MP camera on the back and a 9MP camera on the front.
The Infinix Xpad GT is available for pre-order in Malaysia from Lazada. The single 8/256GB Stellar Grey model is priced MYR 1,700 ($400/€355/₹34,150). It will start shipping in 14 days and as a pre-order perk, you get the keyboard and stylus for free
