Infinix NOTE 60 Ultra: When a Phone Gets the Ferrari Treatment
By Hisan Kidwai
March 5, 2026
Let’s be honest—most smartphones in 2026 look the same. A slab of metal and glass, a bulky camera bump on the back, and a whole lot of “me too” energy. Infinix looked at that and, apparently, decided to do something completely different. Enter the NOTE 60 Ultra. Instead of following the crowd, the brand tapped Pininfarina—yes, the Pininfarina—to design its new flagship. If that name doesn’t ring a bell, these are the legends behind some of the most beautiful cars ever made, including the Ferrari 250 GT and the Testarossa. So, yeah. This isn’t just another phone.
Pininfarina brought its automotive design DNA to the NOTE 60 Ultra, and the result is refreshingly different. Instead of the usual protruding camera island, Infinix went with an aluminum unibody and what it calls the world’s first Uni-Chassis camera module. The entire back is carved from a single sheet of Corning Gorilla Glass Victus, giving it a smooth, uninterrupted surface. The display is equally impressive: a 1.5K Ultra HDR panel with a 144Hz refresh rate and peak brightness hitting 4,500 nits. That’s the kind of brightness you’d expect from a high-end TV, not a phone.
There are also thoughtful design touches that make this phone feel special. A “Floating Taillight” element on the back lights up when you power it on—a subtle nod to its automotive inspiration. And similar to the new Xiaomi 17 series, there’s a hidden Active Matrix display embedded in the rear panel that can show notifications, icons, or even a pixel-style virtual companion. Color options are pulled straight from Italian racecars: Torino Black, Monza Red, Amalfi Blue, and Roma Silver. It’s a phone that actually has personality.
Under the Hood: Built to Perform
Infinix didn’t stop at good looks. The NOTE 60 Ultra is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 8400 Ultimate chipset, built on a 4nm process. For the specs-minded, that means one Cortex-A725 core at 3.25GHz, three at 3.0GHz, and four at 2.1GHz. Paired with 12GB of RAM and either 256GB or 512GB of storage, performance should be more than capable—Infinix claims an AnTuTu score north of 1.6 million.
On the software side, you’re getting XOS 16 based on Android 16, complete with a redesigned interface called GlowSpace. There’s also a suite of AI tools, including an Advanced Health Monitor for tracking vitals, AI-powered file organization, and an adaptive knowledge base that learns how you use your phone. Infinix is promising three years of major Android updates and five years of security patches—solid support for a phone that’s clearly built to last.
One of the more unexpected features is two-way satellite calling and messaging. That means you can stay connected even when you’re completely off the grid—no cellular signal required. Whether you’re hiking in a remote area or dealing with a network outage, it’s the kind of feature that could genuinely come in clutch.
Battery That Takes Care of Itself
Battery life is anchored by a massive 7,000mAh silicon-carbon battery. But here’s the kicker: Infinix says it has self-healing capabilities that can restore up to 1% of battery health every 200 charging cycles. That’s a feature worth testing long-term, and if it delivers, it could seriously extend the phone’s lifespan. Charging is equally impressive, with 100W wired and 50W wireless support.
Cameras: Less Bump, More Power
Despite the slimmed-down camera module, the NOTE 60 Ultra doesn’t skimp on optics. It packs a 200MP Samsung ISOCELL HPE main sensor, a 50MP Samsung ISOCELL JN5 periscope telephoto, and a 112-degree ultra-wide camera. The telephoto system offers 2x optical crop, 3.5x optical zoom, and up to 7x lossless digital zoom, with a maximum of 100x hybrid zoom for those long-distance shots. Infinix’s XDR Image Engine also enables Ultra HDR capture, promising better dynamic range and detail preservation—though we’ll have to put that to the test ourselves.
Final Thoughts
The Infinix NOTE 60 Ultra isn’t trying to blend in. It’s a collaboration born from one of the most respected names in automotive design, stuffed with high-end features, and backed by thoughtful touches that go beyond the spec sheet. Whether it’s the sleek unibody design, the satellite connectivity, or that intriguing self-healing battery, this is a phone that feels like Infinix is trying to prove a point.
And honestly? It might just succeed.
