Samsung Galaxy M40 said to feature a 3,500mAh battery, contrary to rumours

Samsung is all set to launch its latest mid-range smartphone, the Galaxy M40. The company has already confirmed the launch of the smartphone in India on June 11th, and as is the norm these days, key Galaxy M40 specifications have already been leaked or revealed officially. It is expected to be a mid-range device, with price estimated to be between Rs 20,000 and Rs 25,000. Now, however, the latest leak about the Galaxy M40 states that the phone may eventually feature a much smaller battery pack, than what was touted before.

According to a new report by SamMobile, the Samsung Galaxy M40 may come with a 3,500mAh battery pack, contradicting previous reports that had suggested that it would actually feature a 5,000mAh battery. This would make a considerable amount of difference, since with a 5,000mAh battery, Samsung would have put that as one of the key features of attraction. However, the company appears to be going for an overall appeal with the Galaxy M40, with advertised material so far showing an in-display front camera, thin bezels, and no notch.

Other specifications of the Samsung Galaxy M40 include a 6.3-inch Infinity O display, full-HD+ screen resolution with 19.5:9 aspect ratio, a 32-megapixel primary rear camera with pixel binning, coupled with an 8-megapixel ultra-wide angle camera and 5-megapixel depth assisting camera, and a 16-megapixel front camera that’s placed in the display hole. It is expected to be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 675 SoC, along with up to 6GB RAM and 128GB storage. It is also certain to run on Android 9 Pie, out of the box.

Samsung’s recently introduced M series is claimed to be a success in the subcontinent. It has already sold over 2 million M series smartphones, as it continues to attempt to take on Xiaomi and Realme. With the Galaxy M40, Samsung will hope to take on the likes of the Realme 3 Pro and the Redmi Note 7 Pro, in the sub-Rs 20,000 segment of smartphones in India.
