Infinix unveiled the Infinix Hot 30 5G in July 2023, and it appears that the company could already be planning to launch its successor. This is due to the fact that the Bluetooth SIG authority has approved the Infinix Hot 40, indicating that it might launch in the upcoming months.

The Infinix Hot 40 has appeared with model number X6836 in the database of Bluetooth SIG. The listing reveals that the device will support Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity. However, it does not have any information about the other specifications of the device.

The Infinix Hot 40, like its predecessors, such as Hot 30 5G and Hot 20 5G, is expected to be an affordable 5G offering with a massive display and huge battery. Infinix has been updating its Hot series at a rate of around six months in India. The Hot 20 5G was announced in December 2022 and was succeeded by the Hot 30 5G in July 2023. Therefore, there is a possibility that the newly spotted Infinix Hot 40 may go official before the end of this year.

The absence of “5G” in the name of the Infinix Hot 40 in Bluetooth makes it unclear whether it is a 4G or a 5G-enabled device. Hopefully, upcoming reports will reveal more details about the device. In our review of the Hot 30 5G, we noticed that it took more than 2 hours to charge it using the in-box 18W charger. Hopefully, the Hot 40 arrives with support for a faster charging solution. In all likelihood, the Hot 40 will be priced at around Rs 12,000 (~$150) in India.

In related news, Infinix recently unveiled the Dimensity 8020-powered Infinix Zero 30 5G in India with a starting price of Rs 23,999 (~$300). It is now available for pre-orders via Flipkart.
