Poco has officially launched the Poco C40 smartphone on the market. The device is a budget model with a JLQ chipset, which is likely the first for a Poco smartphone. A massive 6,000mAh battery and a dual-camera extended camera island are two of the device’s highlights.

Specifications and Highlights of the Poco C40

The Poco C40 has a design that is quite familiar. A design that can now be found on the majority of Poco’s phones. On the front, there’s a water-drop panel, and on the back, there’s an extended camera island design. It has a 6.71-inch LCD display with a 1650 x 720-pixel HD+ resolution. It has a 60Hz refresh rate and is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass.

One of the more intriguing aspects of the device is that it is powered by a JLQ chipset (Shanghai-based chip maker). It has a JLQ JR510 processor with an integrated Mali G52 GPU. It has four gigabytes of RAM and 64 gigabytes of internal storage. It also has a MicroSD slot for up to 1TB of additional storage.

The device has a dual-rear camera setup with a 13MP main lens with an aperture of f/2.2 and an aperture of f/2.4. A 2MP depth sensor aids in the creation of bokeh effects in images. Aside from the camera, there’s also an LED flash. It has a 5MP selfie camera with an f/2.2 aperture on the front.

The device comes with a large 6,000mAh battery that supports 18W fast charging. However, the faster charger will not be included in the phone’s box. Instead, the device will come with a 10W charger.

The phone has a fingerprint scanner on the back as well as facial unlock support. The phone runs on Android 11 with MIUI 13 on top. It supports Bluetooth v5.0 as well as WiFi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac.
