Originally released in the Philippines last April, the Infinix Note 40 Pro+ 5G immediately became popular for its very capable hardware at an affordable price. Infinix soon released the Note 40 Pro+ Racing Edition 33 this June.

The Racing Edition has the same hardware configuration as the base modeland also sold at the same retail price of Php13,999USD 239INR 20,223EUR 227CNY 1,737. It is crafted in collaboration with the legendary BMW DesignWorks.

The main difference here is the design, more specifically, the make and finish of the back panel that is inspired by Wings of Speed.

The phone sports a glossy finish with premium composite materials that has a silver finish and tri-color racing symbols on the frame beside the camera lens.

Unlike the original model which has a faux-leather back panel, the Racing Edition looks quite different and more apt with the name.

The unit comes with its own leather-like case, if that also fancies you.
