Infinix mobility limited — 37 prefixes (MA-L)
Summary
- // what this is
- Infinix mobility is registered to MAC prefix
04:F9:93and 36 more in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with04:F9:93, that block was registered by Infinix mobility — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device. - // analyst note
- An Infinix OUI on a network typically indicates a genuine consumer Android smartphone/tablet in emerging markets; standard Android MAC randomization applies, so absence of a resolving OUI doesn't rule out an Infinix device.
About this vendor.
Infinix mobility limited is the IEEE-registered legal name behind the Infinix smartphone brand, a subsidiary of Transsion Holdings — the Shenzhen-based, Hong Kong-listed group that also owns TECNO and itel. The cached IEEE registry data shows thirty-seven MA-L (24-bit) OUI blocks registered to this organization, all sharing an identical Hong Kong registrant address; no MA-M or MA-S assignments were found for the brand. Infinix Mobile was founded in April 2013 and sells budget-to-mid-range Android smartphones and tablets (the Note, Smart, Hot, Zero, and GT series) across roughly 70 countries in Africa, the Middle East, South Asia, Southeast Asia, and Latin America. This matches the pattern already documented for sibling Transsion brand itel in this site's own enrichment data: same Hong Kong-style registrant addressing, a real product/device line, and a large multi-OUI footprint consistent with high-volume consumer handset production rather than a shell registration. Transsion as a group held roughly 48% of the African smartphone market as of 2021, with Infinix as one of its three core brands. On the security side, no primary-sourced, Infinix-brand-specific confirmed malware incident was found; a 2025 academic study of pre-installed Android apps across Transsion-family devices (Infinix, TECNO, itel collectively) found data-leaking and insecure pre-installed apps, and the well-documented 2020 Triada/xHelper pre-installed-malware incident was specific to the TECNO W2 model, not Infinix — any "Infinix ships malware" claim would be an unconfirmed inference from shared-portfolio risk, not a documented Infinix-specific fact.

- Registration date
- IEEE publishes NO assignment/registration date for OUI/MAC prefixes; the IEEE MA-L registry carries no date column for these rows. Any "date registered" shown on third-party lookup tools is a database artifact, not an IEEE fact. allocated_date stays Unknown by design.

- Usage context on networks
- an Infinix OUI on a network almost always indicates a consumer Android smartphone or tablet (personal/BYOD), not enterprise, IoT, or infrastructure hardware [Likely] — https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinix_Mobile
- Security note
- no primary-sourced, Infinix-brand-specific confirmed malware incident found. A 2025 arXiv study of pre-installed Android apps across Transsion-family devices (Infinix, TECNO, itel — ~51% of the 2023 African smartphone market) found sensitive-data-leaking and insecure pre-installed apps; the 2020 Triada/xHelper pre-installed-malware finding (Upstream Systems / CNN) was specific to the TECNO W2 model, not Infinix. Any "Infinix ships malware" claim is an unconfirmed inference from shared-portfolio risk, not a documented Infinix-specific fact.

- TECNO, itel (sibling Transsion brands; hold separate registrations)
- Analyst note
- standard Android MAC randomization (default-on for client Wi-Fi since Android 10) applies generically to Infinix devices; no Infinix-specific deviation (e.g., disabling randomization) was found, unlike itel, which is documented elsewhere in this site's data as using non-randomized addresses.
