Editorial report

vivo V40 technical sheet

The vivo V40 suits people who prioritize a standout display and broad connectivity; its main trade-off is the main camera’s f/1.9 aperture, worse than that of most phones launched around the same time. It also has no optical zoom.

The 6.78-inch AMOLED display combines 4,500-nit peak brightness with 453 ppi pixel density, both among the best of its time for brightness and sharpness. At 7.6 mm thick, the body is among the thinnest of its time. Connectivity is also among the best: the phone supports 5G, Wi-Fi 6/6E, Bluetooth 5.4, and NFC. It accepts either two Nano-SIM cards or a Nano-SIM and an eSIM.

The camera setup overall is better than that of most phones of its time. The 50 MP main camera has optical image stabilization and records 4K video at 30 fps, though its f/1.9 aperture is a comparative weakness. There is also a 50 MP ultrawide camera and a 50 MP front camera.

This version pairs 12 GB RAM with 512 GB storage, both more than most phones launched around the same time. Overall performance is typical. The 5,500 mAh battery capacity is typical, while 80 W fast charging has more power than most phones of its time. With a NeoScore of 7.6, the vivo V40 is a particularly strong fit for buyers who put the display and connectivity ahead of the main camera’s aperture.
