Infinix has reportedly indicated that its next Android smartphone for the Indian market will launch as the first mobile device with its own fragrance. The Note 50s' "scent-tech" should apparently last for months after sale, and is supported by "microencapsulation" technology built into the handset's vegan leather rear panel.

Digit.in reports that the Infinix Note 50s is intended to to smell as good as it looks, thanks to world-first Energizing Scent-Tech for Android devices. It apparently enables the smartphone to emit "a light, refreshing scent" for up to 6 months of use.

The potentially interesting (if gimmicky) new feature is enabled by Microencapsulation Technology: a technique of "trapping" molecules of the Note 50s' perfume in capsules integrated into vegan leather, which is in turn found in 1 of the handset's color SKUs (Marine Drift Blue).

Infinix has not confirmed the integration of Energizing Scent-Tech in its own Note 50s teasers thus far. The OEM also has yet to explain why the smartphone will be "5G+", although that might be linked to something like 5G Advanced (or 5G-A). 

More cryptically, the Note 50s is also backed to "Question the Noise" with the "slimmest" design on its April 18, 2025 launch.

The Infinix Note 40X 5G: now available at a discounted INR 13,999 price on Amazon.in.
