Infinix GT 30 Officially Launches in Nepal: Price and Features

Infinix has made a name for itself by doing what few brands dare in the entry-to-midrange market, delivering gaming-focused smartphones with a bold design and gutsy performance, all without breaking the bank. And now, with the official launch of the Infinix GT 30 in Nepal at Rs. 36,999, the brand is once again flexing its value muscle.

The GT 30 arrives as a toned-down sibling of the more premium GT 30 Pro, borrowing much of its DNA, from the aggressive design to the AMOLED display and large battery, but with a price tag that’s squarely aimed at budget-conscious gamers.

Let’s dive into what makes the GT 30 more than just another midrange phone. Spoiler alert: it punches way above its weight.

Design

The GT 30 carries forward the now-iconic cyber-mecha aesthetic of the GT series. It’s futuristic, unapologetically flashy, and yes, it lights up.

The LED light strip on the rear isn’t just for show. It plays into the gamer identity, blinking with incoming calls or during charging. From the rear panel to the aggressive corners, every bit of the design screams "performance device", something rare in this price bracket.

Despite being constructed mostly of plastic, the build doesn’t feel cheap. You get Corning Gorilla Glass 7i on the front and an IP64 rating, which is impressive for a device under Rs. 40,000. Also notable are the pressure-sensitive shoulder triggers, making it perfect for FPS gamers relying on claw-style grips.

Dimensions: 163.7 x 75.8 x 7.99 mm, Weight: 187g

Display

What truly stands out is the 6.78-inch AMOLED panel, boasting a crisp 1.5K resolution (1224 x 2720 pixels) and an eye-watering peak brightness of 4,500 nits. Those are flagship-level specs, on a midrange phone.

Color accuracy and contrast are top-tier thanks to AMOLED technology, and the 144Hz refresh rate delivers buttery-smooth scrolling and animations. However, do note that only a handful of games fully utilize this refresh rate, with most high-performance games like PUBG Mobile and Call of Duty Mobile capping at 90Hz or 120Hz due to SoC limitations.

Still, the display is easily one of the best in its price category, further cementing the GT 30’s gaming-first identity.

Performance

Under the hood, the GT 30 debuts the MediaTek Dimensity 7400 (4nm) chipset, an upgrade over the well-regarded Dimensity 7300. With a 0.1 GHz bump in clock speed and about 6–12% better performance in AnTuTu benchmarks, it’s a solid performer for daily use and moderate gaming.

Gaming gets a further boost with a 5,400mm² vapor chamber cooling system, which reduces thermal throttling during long sessions. You can expect stable frame rates and cool temps even during extended battle royale matches.

Coupled with 8GB LPDDR5x RAM and 256GB UFS 2.2 storage, performance is fluid. The only drawback? No microSD slot, so storage is fixed.

Camera

Let’s be real, gaming phones rarely deliver award-winning photography, and the GT 30 is no exception. But what you get is still decent.

It features a 64MP Sony IMX682 primary sensor, which, while dated, still holds up for daylight shots and casual photography. You also get an 8MP ultrawide lens and a 13MP front camera.

Surprisingly, both front and rear cameras support 4K video recording at 30fps, which is still rare in this segment.

If cameras are your top priority, other phones in this price range may edge it out. But for a gaming phone, it covers the basics well enough.

Battery and Charging

With a 5,500mAh battery, the GT 30 is built for marathon gaming sessions. The inclusion of 45W fast charging is a plus, allowing you to juice up the phone in about an hour.

One of the standout features is Bypass Charging, a smart feature that powers the phone directly during gaming to reduce battery heat and wear. This makes the GT 30 a rare device in its class that actually considers long-term battery health for gamers.

Also included is 10W reverse wired charging, handy for accessories or earbuds.

Software

The GT 30 boots into Android 15, layered with Infinix’s custom XOS 15 UI. While XOS can be a bit bloated out of the box, Infinix has made strides in cleaning up the user experience in recent versions.

Expect minimal lag, smoother animations, and gaming-specific tweaks such as Game Mode and performance boost toggles.

If Infinix continues its software update track record, you can expect at least a couple of Android updates down the road, though nothing has been officially confirmed.

Conclusion
