Description of the Samsung Galaxy A40 Black
Description of the Samsung Galaxy A40 Black
The Samsung Galaxy A40 is a new smartphone from the Samsung Galaxy A series and can be seen as the successor to the Galaxy A6. Smartphones from this mid-range line are characterised by their excellent cameras and fun features.
The same can be said about the Samsung Galaxy A40 Black. This device comes equipped with two cameras on the back, including one camera with a wide-angle lens. The smartphone runs on the user-friendly Android 9.0 Pie, comes with 64GB of storage space, and features a fast fingerprint scanner on the back.
Large display with notch
The black Samsung Galaxy A40 has a large display without bezels; only the bottom has a slightly thicker bezel. The screen measures 5.9 inches, but the device itself is still relatively compact thanks to the bezel-less design. Because the screen is also quite narrow, the device fits comfortably in your hand. The selfie camera is incorporated in a notch at the top of the display.
Dual camera and wide-angle lens
The back of the Samsung Galaxy A40 Black features a vertically placed dual camera. The top camera has a resolution of 5 megapixels and is equipped with a wide-angle lens. This way, you can capture a lot more in your picture without having to take 10 steps backwards!
The second camera has a 16-megapixel resolution and takes excellent pictures, both in the dark and in daylight, thanks to artificial intelligence. The camera recognises 20 different scenes and optimises your pictures based on them. This way, colours are reproduced brightly and your pictures can really come to life!
Sharp 25-megapixel selfie camera
You can take beautiful selfies with the pin-sharp front camera, both during the day on the beach and in the evening when you go out. With extra features like Smart Beauty and Selfie Focus, you'll always look your best. The Galaxy A40 also comes equipped with extra features like AR Stickers and Stamps. This lets you add nice filters to your pictures. You could even make your own AR emoji, which is an emoji with your own face!
Energy all day and Fast Charge
This black A40 has a battery capacity of 3100mAh. On average, this gives you more than enough battery capacity for a full day of use. Did you play a lot and has your battery drained by the end of the day? Then you can quickly recharge it with Fast Charge via the handy USB-C port.
64GB of expandable storage space
With 64GB of storage space, you can take a lot of pictures and store a lot of songs before you run out of space. Do you need a little more space because you prefer to store your movie collection on your smartphone or download long playlists from Spotify? Then you can expand the storage space with a microSD card.
Space for two SIM cards
Do you have a separate smartphone for personal use and work, and do you find this inconvenient? The Samsung Galaxy A40 offers a great solution for that. Not only can you use two SIM cards in this smartphone, it also has a Dual Messenger function. This means you can use two accounts for the same apps. For example, you can create two WhatsApp accounts: one for your business contacts and one for private use!
Android 9.0 Pie
This Samsung device runs on Android 9.0 Pie, the user-friendly software from Google. The manufacturer has made several adjustments to this operating system, so the interface has different icons and the device comes with various pre-installed apps.
