Following closely behind the Note 50x launch, Infinix is preparing to unveil another smartphone in its Note 50 series in India. The Note 50s 5G+ has already been teased to arrive in three color options: Titanium Grey, Ruby Red, and Marine Drift Blue.
Of these, the latter is particularly interesting as Infinix claims it comes equipped with microencapsulation technology, which will imbue the phone with a long-lasting fragrance.
The company has now confirmed the launch date for the aromatic device in India. The Infinix Note 50s 5G+ is set to debut on April 18.
How does this scent tech work?
Infinix is marketing the technology as Energizing Scent-Tech. This process traps fragrance molecules within microscopic capsules, which are embedded in the phone’s vegan leather back panel. As a result, the phone gradually releases a light, refreshing scent over time.
According to Infinix, the scent is designed to be subtle and long-lasting, though its intensity and duration may vary depending on how the phone is used and environmental factors like temperature and humidity. The company claims the fragrance will last for up to six months.
“We try to innovate. One such innovation is this Energizing Scent-Tech. It’s like you have a good-looking phone and it smells good as well. There’s a lot of technology behind that,” Infinix India CEO Anish Kapoor said.
Kapoor also hinted that the phone will be priced under Rs 20,000 in India. That’s some $235 for a fragrant phone which isn’t exactly breaking the bank.
We don’t yet have the full spec sheet for the phone, but given its expected price tag, don’t expect anything particularly premium. That said, the official renders confirm it will feature a 64MP Sony IMX682 sensor as the main camera.
