Infinix Note 40

The Infinix Note 40 in South Africa

The Infinix Note 40 stands as a powerful contender in the mid-range market, focusing on delivering high-end charging features and excellent battery life at an accessible price. Starting from ZAR 2,500, it strips away the curved screen of its Pro sibling but retains the core performance and rapid power features that make the Note series a favorite for budget-conscious South Africans.

Price Note: While pricing starts at approximately ZAR 2,500, please keep in mind that shelf prices will vary depending on retail promotions, localized market shifts across provinces, and whether you purchase it outright or as part of a cellular contract package.

What Makes it Stand Out?

The standard Note 40 manages to retain several premium features that keep it highly competitive:

• 120Hz AMOLED Display: Even without the curved edges of the Pro, the flat 6.78-inch AMOLED display is stunning. It features a ultra-smooth 120Hz refresh rate and minimal bezels, making it fantastic for outdoor visibility, watching videos, and gaming.

• All-Round FastCharge Technology: Infinix doesn’t skip on charging speeds here. It supports impressive wired fast charging and works seamlessly with magnetic wireless charging accessories, ensuring you can top up your battery effortlessly between daily activities or load-shedding blocks.

• 108MP Super-Zoom Camera: The rear setup features a massive 108MP main camera. It allows for highly detailed photos and lossless in-sensor zoom, so your shots remain sharp even when cropping in on distant details.

• Dual Speakers Tuned by JBL: For entertainment lovers, the device comes equipped with dual stereo speakers engineered in partnership with audio specialists JBL, providing much deeper and clearer sound than typical single-speaker budget phones.
