Hot on the heels of the very popular NOTE 40 series introductory release, Infinix releases another stunner in the sub-Php 13K segment. The new Infinix NOTE 40 5G is dubbed to be the best choice under this segment with its powerful hardware spearheaded by the Dimensity 7020 5G chip, up to 24GB of RAM, and an All-round charging technology, among other impressive features.
In addition to these sought after features, the smartphone is gunned to be a performer when it comes to gaming in this price range. The hype is definitely real with the Infinix NOTE 40 5G, and here are the reasons why we think you should jump into the NOTE 40 5G bandwagon.
Ultra Fast Gameplay Powered by Dimensity 7020 5G
The Infinix NOTE 40 5G is throttling right out of the gate with its snappy MediaTek Dimensity 7020 5G chipset. This is an octa-core SoC that has undergone the rigid and complex 6-nanometer process with up to 2.2 GHz of processor speed. Coming in with the same processor as its brother, the NOTE 40 Pro+ 5G, the standard NOTE 40 5G delivers similar performance and efficiency.
It's also rare to find this chipset for under Php 13K, making the Infinix NOTE 40 5G very competitive among its peers. But how does this make the handset remarkable for gaming and multitasking?
For one, you don't have to worry about frame drops or app crashes when you’re in-game. Plus, the support for 5G connectivity gives users the competitive edge of having fast internet while playing on the go. Likewise, you can tick as many productivity tasks as filling up spreadsheets, working on a word document, and even plan on your next meal while on “mobile”.
Infinix x MLBB All Star Collaboration
If you’re like me who plays Mobile Legends: Bang Bang in my spare time, then you’ll be delighted to know that the Infinix NOTE 40 5G has partnered with Moonton for this release. This is particularly evident given that the new All Star Esmeralda Astral Muse skin is featured on the box’s sleeve.
Pulling up the Mobile Legends app, I was delighted to see that the device supports the Ultra graphics mode and High refresh rate. This surprised me knowing that almost all smartphones in this category are only limited to High graphics. This collaboration is quite fitting since Infinix is also an official sponsor of the MLBB Professional League (MPL Philippines).
Beefy Hardware, Unique Software Features
Not only does it possess powerful hardware, but the Infinix NOTE 40 5G also packs a beefy memory. The smartphone has 12GB of RAM and has the capability to access another 12GB of virtual RAM. This sums up to a whopping 24GB of RAM should the phone need it.
Likewise, the NOTE 40 5G supports a roomy 512GB of storage. This provides ample space for photos, videos, and other multimedia files. This smartphone also boasts a 108MP triple camera system which produces very capable photos, making it a great companion for mobile photography.
Another unique feature is the Active Halo Lighting effect which glows into gradients of colors for selected smartphone functions like charging, and more.
Of course, you can choose the set of colors depending on your mood. This complements the Magic Ring that shows your phone’s status or battery charging percentage.
Battery Management, Slick Design
One thing I love about the NOTE 40 5G is that they are pushing boundaries when it comes to battery management and performance. This phone supports 33W All-Round FastCharge and 15W Wireless MagCharge technologies. These tech fill-up the 5000mAh battery rapidly. Both charging features ensure safety to your devices when left plugged in.
You can take advantage of the MagCharge feature using the wireless charger called the MagPad. There’s also an accompanying case that’s included in the box.
It’s also worth noting that the Infinix NOTE 40 5G is still a joy to look at even without the accompanying case. Our Titan Gold unit is very pleasing to use with its silky matte texture and flashy accents. When used outside, the color reflects an orange hue which makes it even more interesting. If this color is not your cup of tea, there are other colorways like Obsidian Black and Vintage Green.
Infinix NOTE 40 5G: Standout with Ultra Fast Gaming and More
With these features, the Infinix NOTE 40 5G stands out as one of the top choices for gamers who are looking for a performance-oriented smartphone under Php 13K. It's highly intuitive due to its unique features like the Magic Ring and Active Halo Lighting. And with the support for All-Round MagCharge tech, this phone is very easy to recommend.
