It’s Wednesday, February 4, 2026, and Infinix just dropped a major disruptor in the Malaysian mid-range market. The Infinix Note Edge is officially live for RM999, and the thing is, they’ve managed to cram a massive 6,500mAh battery into a body that’s only 7.2mm thick.
Let’s be real—usually, a “big battery phone” feels like carrying a brick. But this one? It’s slim, it’s curved, and it’s punching way above its weight class. Or nothing.

The Hardware Rundown: Field Notes
It’s an ongoing situation where Infinix is trying to shed its “budget-only” image for something more premium. Here’s the ground reality:
-
The World First: This is the first phone globally to run the MediaTek Dimensity 7100 5G chipset. It’s a 6nm chip designed for efficiency, and it hits over 810,000 on AnTuTu. Smooth multitasking? Check.
-
The “Eye-Care” Display: It’s a 6.78-inch 1.5K AMOLED 3D curved screen. The kicker is the 4,500 nits peak brightness—you could probably use this as a signal flare. It’s got a 120Hz refresh rate too. Those too.
-
The Battery Longevity: Infinix claims this battery will keep 80% health even after 2,000 charge cycles. That’s roughly six years of use. Plus, it’s got a “self-repairing” system to heal micro-cracks in the battery cells when fully drained. And then the 45W fast charging (50% in 27 mins) followed.
-
One-Tap AI: There’s a physical Customizable Button on the side. One tap and the Folax AI assistant pops up to summarize your screen or translate in real-time. Casual but effective.

Infinix Note Edge: Specs at a Glance
| Feature | Specification |
| Display | 6.78″ 1.5K 3D Curved AMOLED (120Hz, 4500 nits) |
| Processor | MediaTek Dimensity 7100 5G (World First) |
| Memory | 8GB RAM (+8GB Extended) |
| Battery | 6,500mAh with 45W Wired / 10W Reverse Charging |
| Durability | IP65 Water & Dust Resistant |
| Software | Android 16 (3 years OS / 5 years Security updates) |
And Here’s the Kicker…
Infinix is finally playing the “long game” with software. They’re promising 3 major OS updates (taking you to XOS 19) and 5 years of security patches. For a sub-RM1,000 phone, that’s almost unheard of. Usually, you’re lucky to get one update.
One side comment—the Silk Green variant has a leather-like texture that feels way more expensive than it is. If you’re buying it today via the TikTok Shop launch, you’re looking at freebies like a case and strap worth RM109. Authentic, but a bit messy with the “Lunar Titanium” name—let’s be real, it just looks like very nice silver. It’s an ongoing situation. Or nothing.
