Xiaomi Redmi K40 Gaming technical sheet
The Redmi K40 Gaming suits people looking for a gaming phone with standout hardware, though at 205 g it is heavier than most phones of its time. Its 6.67-inch OLED display runs at 120 Hz, a higher refresh rate than most; overall, the display is typical for its time. Gorilla Glass 5 and HDR10+ are also included.
The hardware is among the most powerful of its time. Its 12 GB RAM is among the highest capacities, while 256 GB of storage is more than most phones of its time. The MediaTek Dimensity 1200 and UFS 3.1 storage round out the configuration, and the storage cannot be expanded.
The camera is better than most: its 64 MP resolution is higher than that of most phone cameras of its time, and its f/1.7 aperture is among the brightest. An 8 MP ultrawide camera and a 2 MP macro camera add two more perspectives. The 5,065 mAh battery has more capacity than most phones of its time, and 67 W charging is among the fastest of its time. Connectivity is also better than most, with 5G, NFC, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.2 and dual Nano-SIM. Its overall NeoScore is 6.6. It is a strong fit for people who prioritize gaming hardware and can accept a heavier phone.
