Pretty discreet hardware that hides a premium battery

As you can see in the official images of the device, it features the design that was leaked a few hours before its launch, with an all-plastic back. available in colors such as black, green and yellow, and where a generously sized camera module stands out a location that houses the fingerprint sensor, which does not convince us at all.

For the rest, there’s a drop-type notch on the front and the use of a body-to-body panel well below the other brand alternatives, and a The physical connection is where the USB-C connector and the 3.5mm jack socket stand out.

Since we are talking about the front, we want to talk about the screen. This POCO C40 is a discreet 6.71 inch IPS panel and HD+ resolution, standard 60 Hz refresh rate and Corning Gorilla Glass 3, in short, we are faced with entry-level phone features.

However, the biggest surprise of this smartphone is undoubtedly its hardware, as POCO has not chosen to install a traditional processor from brands like Mediatek or Qualcomm. decided on JLQ JR10, a chipset completely unknown to us and we can tell you little or nothing at the level of benefits.

It is accompanied by a single version 4GB RAM and 64GB storage, 4G connectivity and dual-band WiFi and, as an excellent quality, a huge 6,000 mAh battery, which in principle does not have compatible fast charging technology, which will be great to have brutal autonomy, but will not be useful when it comes to recharging .

Finally, let’s say that although it is based on Android 11, unfortunately, the device has MIUI 13 and is completed with a set. pretty hidden camera setup, but it’s set up like this:

• 13MP main sensor

• 2MP depth sensor

• 5MP front camera
