## Design and Build: A Premium Look on a Budget

The Galaxy M40 was a notable phone in Samsung's M-series for adopting the Infinity-O display — a hole-punch camera design that gave it a flagship-inspired look. The display dominated the front with minimal bezels, and the back panel featured a glossy finish with a distinctive camera housing.
The phone was impressively slim at 7.9mm and lightweight at 168g. Samsung included both a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor and a 3.5mm headphone jack.
## Key Features Under the Hood
The Galaxy M40 was powered by a Snapdragon 675 chip, offering smooth performance for its generation.
Here is a quick look at the standout specs:
- **Display:** 6.3-inch FHD+ PLS LCD, Infinity-O. The hole-punch design was a premium feature at this price.
- **Camera:** 32MP main + 8MP ultra-wide + 5MP depth.
- **Battery:** 3,500mAh with 15W charging. Adequate for moderate daily use.
- **Processor:** Snapdragon 675.
