The trendsetting tech brand enters its third consecutive year of sponsoring top-tier tournaments, now introducing the GT 30 Pro as the official gaming smartphone for the biggest international titles.

As the 2025 esports season progresses into its final stages, the GT Series remains at the heart of competitive action, powering players through year-end championships and a broader lineup of global tournaments.
Deep Participation: Infinix Moves Beyond Sponsorship

These trophies represent the pinnacle of competitive performance, and the FMVPs will also receive custom GT 30 Pro devices, Infinix AI Rings, and limited-edition champion jackets. It is a bold move that reinforces Infinix's role not just as a sponsor, but as a genuine champion of the esports spirit.
