The Infinix Hot 70 has gone on sale in Russia from 13,500 rubles, pairing a hardware AI button with a 120Hz display and a 6,000mAh battery. ITzine reports that the phone is available with 128GB or 256GB of storage, while an Infinix Hot 70 Pro is planned for later.
The Hot 70 had already appeared in the Google Play Console ahead of launch, as we reported in the phone’s earlier Google Play Console appearance. Its announced processor is the MediaTek Helio G100 Ultimate.
How the Hot 70's AI button works
The dedicated button provides shortcuts to several functions rather than serving as a general-purpose control. Users can use it to:
- Save information currently displayed on the screen
- Add flight details to a calendar
- Create a contact from a business card
- Launch Folax, Infinix’s assistant, which works with multiple AI models
The 50-megapixel camera also includes AI-powered tools for removing unwanted objects, expanding the background of images and automatically selecting the best shot. ITzine additionally reports call noise reduction and a feature that clears moisture and dust from the speakers.

Battery, display and availability
The phone has a 6.78-inch display with a 120Hz refresh rate and peak brightness of 700 nits. Its 6,000mAh battery supports 45W fast charging, while bypass charging is designed to reduce heat when the phone is being used while charging.
The chassis carries an IP65 rating and is specified to withstand drops from heights of up to 1.5 meters. Infinix also lists UltraLink, which enables Bluetooth calls without cellular service over distances of up to 1.5 kilometers.
Outside Russia, the Hot 70 is listed at $191.30 for the 4GB-plus-256GB version on Infinix’s regional Ecuador store, while Kimovil lists international offers around $193. EU listings start at €169, and the model has an EU Declaration of Conformity under model number X6895B.
That makes the Hot 70 cheaper than the Motorola moto g power (2026), whose US MSRP is $299.99, while its European price is close to the UK listing for Motorola’s Moto G86 5G, at about £174.99. It also sits near the Samsung Galaxy A15 5G, whose US MSRP ranges from $169.99 to $199.99.
The main limitation for US buyers is distribution. The Hot 70 is not listed on an official Infinix US storefront; current availability appears to come from import sellers and international stores. Infinix has not announced an official US MSRP, US launch page or formal US carrier retail channel. For EU buyers, the phone is available, but Infinix’s global product page does not specify official Eurozone retail partners or local warranty and repair arrangements.
