Infinix Note 40 Review: Should You Buy in 10 Points
Vanshika Malhotra
The Infinix Note 40 looks much like its elder sibling the Note 40 Pro but has a matte finish at the back. It is quite sleek and lightweight, which makes using it convenient.
Design
The AMOLED display of the Note 40 is aptly bright and reproduces vivid and bright colours. I re-watched the Kung Fu Panda series on the phone and all the action and comedy were enjoyable.
Display
The Note 40 gets the same Dimensity 7020 chipset as the Note 40 Pro variant and it’s a dependable performer. The Note 40 can also handle intensive games like Call of Duty: Mobile and BGMI and around 30 to 40 minutes of gaming wasn’t problematic.
Performance
The smartphone runs XOS 14 based on Android 14 and it’s quite clean. You will get a few pre-loaded apps like Netflix and Facebook, which feel more like a utility than bloatware.
UI
The Infinix Note 40 does a fair job in the camera department too. The primary 108-megapixel camera produces good-quality images in daylight and even indoors.
Camera
The phone has a standard 5,000mAh battery, which will last you for a day with mid-to-high usage with an average screen time of around 5 hours 30 minutes.
Battery
Overall, the phone feels like a good package on a budget. On top of this, you get wireless charging support, which is almost non-existent in this price range.
Verdict
- Wireless charging support - Neat and clean UI - Lightweight design - Good performance - Value for money
What is Good?
- Not-so-fast charging - Lacks an ultra-wide lens - AI Lighting can feel boring after some time
What is Bad?
- POCO X6 - Realme NARZO 70 Pro
