Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 sits at the core of the vivo V40, paired with 12GB RAM and 256GB storage, so day-to-day tasks and most games should run without a fuss. The 6.78-inch AMOLED panel runs at 120Hz and hits a claimed 4500 nits peak brightness, which matters if you're often outdoors under harsh sun. vivo V40 price in Malaysia starts from RM1899.
On the back, vivo's gone with a dual 50MP setup, a wide lens with OIS and an ultrawide, both tuned with Zeiss optics. Selfie duties fall to a 50MP front camera. Video tops out at 4K30fps on both ends, nothing exotic but solid for the price bracket.
Battery is a 5500mAh cell with 80W wired charging, so top-ups should be quick even on a busy day. The glass-and-plastic build carries IP68/IP69 dust and water resistance, a rare inclusion at this price, and it comes in Peach, Purple, and Silver.
