We Played on the Infinix GT 30 Pro for a Week. It’s Hard to Go Back to Our Old Phone
MPL’s official tournament phone is now in our hands. And we’re on a win streak.
By the time we finished our seventh ranked game of the night—no lag, no frame drops—we knew we weren’t just reviewing this phone anymore. We were playing to win. The Infinix GT 30 Pro, the same phone used by MPL pro team AURORA, didn’t just handle the pressure but it thrived in it.
We’ve used a lot of phones for gaming. Most of them start strong, but fizzle out fast. Overheating. Battery dips. Frame drops in the middle of a clash. The GT 30 Pro is different: Zero Frame Drops. Zero Lag. Zero Battery Drain.

Built for Extended Play—And We Mean Extended
We’ve clocked in hours on this phone. No frame drops. No overheating. No sudden battery dips mid-match. The MediaTek Dimensity 8350 Ultimate 5G chipset runs cool, stable, and blisteringly fast—even after a full evening of ranked climbs.
Add to that an All-day 120FPS system, and we found ourselves breezing through team fights and sniping from rooftops with zero stutter. This level of 120FPS support is normally reserved for ultra-flagships such as the iPhone, Samsung S24, ROG Phone, or REDMAGIC. Whether it was Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, Call of Duty Mobile, or Genshin Impact, the GT 30 Pro’s performance was unshakable.
GT Triggers Changed the Way We Play
Let’s talk about the GT Triggers—because this is where the GT 30 Pro separates itself from the pack.
We mapped the GT Trigger to key controls in PUBG Mobile, CODM, and MLBB, and immediately felt the difference. Instant input. No delay. It was the closest thing to console-level control we’ve experienced on a smartphone.
During clashes, it gave us that half-second edge that often means the difference between wipeout and clutch win. That’s not hype. That’s hardware advantage. No need for thumb gymnastics.
Five Games We Dominated Using the Infinix GT 30 Pro
Mobile Legends: Bang Bang
When you’re deep into ranked mode, milliseconds matter. On the GT 30 Pro, we played MLBB at a rock-solid 120FPS—no frame drops, no lag spikes, just clean, responsive movement from early jungle invades to late-game team fights. The GT Triggers gave us an edge in execution, letting us cast ultimates, purchase items instantly, or even harass opponents with TP spamming!
PUBG Mobile
In a game where every pixel could be an enemy and every tap could be your last, the GT 30 Pro gave us clarity and control. The visuals were razor-sharp on the 1.5K AMOLED display, and we could scope, aim, and fire with barely any input delay. Mapping the GT Triggers to our ADS and fire buttons transformed the phone into a handheld shooter setup. More than once, that instant trigger response turned a near-death scramble into a clean headshot. Even with long matches, performance stayed stable, and the phone stayed cool.
Honor of Kings
Few games demand both aesthetic fidelity and quick reflexes like Honor of Kings, and the GT 30 Pro delivered on both. The 144Hz AMOLED display made animations look fluid and skills feel incredibly responsive. From flashy assassin dives to epic 5v5 clashes, everything rendered beautifully in high detail.
Call of Duty Mobile
CODM punishes inconsistency—and on lesser phones, one dropped frame can cost you the round. On the GT 30 Pro, every frame counted—and we didn’t drop a single one. Multiplayer matches were buttery smooth from start to finish, with 120FPS lock-ins even during UAV spam and close-quarter combat. It’s also worth noting: the GT 30 Pro is the first and only phone under ₱20K that officially supports CODM at 120FPS. That alone makes it a game-changer for competitive mobile shooters.
Genshin Impact
At 35GB, Genshin Impact is a stress test. It demands serious storage and chews through RAM like few other games can—but the GT 30 Pro doesn’t even flinch. We explored Teyvat for hours, shifting between combat, quests, and cutscenes without a single stutter or crash. The Dimensity 8350 Ultimate 5G chipset kept performance consistently smooth, while the phone’s 12GB RAM (expandable up to 24GB) handled the heavy textures and dynamic environments like a champ.
We Loved the GT 30 Pro’s Cyber-Mecha Looks
The GT 30 Pro’s 144Hz AMOLED display with 1.5K resolution gave us an immersive visual experience that went beyond gameplay—it elevated it. Everything looked cleaner, sharper, and more responsive, from map details to skill animations.
Pair that with the Gaming Kit—which includes the MagCharge Cooler and Thermal MagCase—and you get more than just aesthetics. The cooling fan keeps temps stable even during all-day sessions, while wireless charging and bypass charging ensure power delivery stays efficient and lag-free. It’s a setup built for serious players who want pro-tier performance without compromise.
Design-wise, each colorway feels intentional. The Shadow Ash is sleek and understated. Blade White is crisp and clean. And Dark Flare, with its cyber-mecha vibe, is easily our favorite—it catches the light just right, especially under RGB glow.
Where to Buy the Infinix GT 30 Pro
