Infinix is set to unveil its Note 50 series in Indonesia today, succeeding the Note 40 lineup, which debuted in March 2024. Meanwhile, at Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2025, the company introduced two groundbreaking technologies—E-Color Shift 2.0 and SolarEnergy-Reserving Technology. These innovations aim to enhance smartphone customization and battery efficiency, offering a glimpse into the future of mobile technology.
E-Color Shift 2.0: AI-Powered Color Customization
Infinix first introduced its E-Color Shift technology at CES 2024, allowing smartphones to change back panel colors without excessive power consumption. The new E-Color Shift 2.0 takes this feature further by incorporating AI-powered customization, enabling dynamic color changes based on user preferences and external conditions.
Users can choose from six dynamic patterns and six color palettes, creating up to 30 unique combinations. The AI-driven system analyzes factors like weather, wallpapers, and surroundings, adjusting the phone’s appearance accordingly. With improved color depth and segmentation, the technology enhances personalization without draining battery life.
SolarEnergy-Reserving Technology: Charging with Ambient Light
Infinix is also focusing on sustainability with its SolarEnergy-Reserving Technology. By combining advanced perovskite photovoltaic technology with AI-driven power optimization, this innovation transforms ambient light into usable energy, extending battery life in an eco-friendly way.
Unlike traditional solar charging, this system stores harvested energy in a prototype phone case. The case then transfers power to the smartphone via discreet contact points, while AI fine-tunes power acquisition in real time. Currently, the technology allows energy storage of up to 2W, with potential for further improvements in future iterations.
Inspired by heliotropic plants, Infinix refers to this concept as “Sunflower” Wireless Charging. The system dynamically adjusts to indoor lighting conditions, making it a viable option for wearables and other digital devices in the future.
The Future of Smartphones?
With these innovations, Infinix is pushing the boundaries of smartphone technology, focusing on both customization and sustainability. The Note 50 series launch in Indonesia marks another step in the company’s expansion, while its latest advancements in color-shifting and solar-powered charging hint at a more energy-efficient future for mobile devices.
