Infinix NOTE 40 Specs
This year’s NOTE 40 Series debuts Infinix’s first ever self-developed power management chip – the Cheetah X1. The proprietary chip is responsible for optimizing the devices’ 45W fast charging by integrating a high-precision power module and a safety module ensuring efficient and safe charging. On that note, both models pack a 5,000mAh battery.
The NOTE 40 Series now also has the versatility to attach the Infinix MagKit, consisting of a MagPower, MagCase, and MagPad for 20W wireless charging. The MagKit, however, does not come in the box.
The NOTE 40 and NOTE 40 Pro 5G have displays of the same make-up, with both sporting a 6.78″ AMOLED panel with FHD+ (1080p) resolution, 120Hz maximum refresh rates, and 1,300nits peak brightness. It’s worth mentioning that only the Pro model has curved displays, while the base NOTE 40 maintains a flat screen.
Cameras are also somewhat similar with a 108MP main camera leading the tri-camera setup, but only the Pro model is given OIS. Infinix did not specify the other two lenses, only that it is a 2MP + 2MP lens combination. For selfies, they each have a 32MP front camera.
The main difference between the two draws down to processors. While the base NOTE 40 utilizes the Helio G99 chipset, the NOTE 40 Pro 5G is powered by the Dimensity 7020 processor. Also, oddly enough, the NOTE 40 has the better IP54 rating, compared to its Pro sibling which is only IP53-rated.
Both models come in three colours: Vintage Green, Titan Gold, and Obsidian Black.
