    We have seen so many new smartphone releases from Samsung mobile this year in different series. The company launched smartphones in the Galaxy M-series, A-series, and S-series, but none of them is as compact as the latest Galaxy A40 in the A-series lineup. The Galaxy A40 as a mid-ranger has a Super AMOLED display and an ultra wide-angle camera as the major selling points.

    The smartphone is affordable and can comfortably serve as a perfect alternative to the Galaxy S10e. Apart from that, the smartphone comes with a glasstic design Infinity-U display and dual camera setup. The phone hosts an in-house Exynos 7885 chip that can stand tall with the chipset other competitors like Qualcomm is offering. Considering the compact nature of the smartphone, the 3,100mAh battery will surely go a long way in terms of power usage when fully charged. The smartphone also comes with a 15W fast charging technology.
