Poco C40 Malaysia Specs
The C40 is currently Poco’s cheapest 4G smartphone offering and it’s positioned below their current M series. Upfront, the Poco C40 gets a large 6.71″ display which pushes a rather low 1650×720 pixels resolution. Instead of your usual MediaTek or Unisoc processor, this entry-entry-level phone runs on an 11nm JLQ JR510 octa-core processor.
In case you are wondering, JLQ is a Shanghai-based joint-venture company which includes Qualcomm, JAC Capital, Leadcore Technology and Wise Road Capital. The JR510 is their first mass-market 4G mobile chipset which uses ARM Cortex A55 CPU and Mali G52 GPU manufactured on Samsung’s 11nm FinFET technology.
The C40 can be configured with up to 4GB of RAM and up to 64GB of storage, which can be expanded up to 1TB extra via microSD card. For taking pictures, it gets a rather basic 13MP main and 2MP depth cameras for the rear, while the front gets a single 5MP selfie shooter. It also gets a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor and still comes with a 3.5mm headphone jack. This is a dual-SIM 4G LTE device and it supports 5GHz 802.11ac WiFi and Bluetooth 5.0.
Powering the C40 is a large 6,000mAh battery which supports 18W fast charging. According to the global spec sheet, Poco is only including a slower 10W charger with the phone. Out of the box, it runs on Android 11 with MIUI 13 for Poco skin on top.
