The Honor V40 5G is the first phone from the company since Huawei sold it off to a Shenzhen-based consortium. However, since it has been in development for quite some time, the V40 5G was mostly developed under Huawei ownership.

The V40 5G is built around a 6.72-inch curved OLED display with a resolution of 2676 x 1236-pixels and a 120Hz refresh rate. It has very thin bezels and a pill-shaped hole-punch cutout on the top left corner, which houses a 16MP dual-camera system.

There are three cameras at the rear, where the primary unit is a 50MP RYYB sensor paired with an 8MP ultrawide shooter and a 2MP macro lens. Powering the V40 5G is a Dimensity 1000+ chipset paired with 8GB of RAM and up to 256GB of internal storage.

Moreover, the smartphone is backed up with a 4,000mAh battery pack, which comes with support for 66W wired charging via USB-C. It runs on Android 10 with Honor's Magic UI 4.0 skin on top.

Lastly, the Honor V40 5G is available for CNY3,599 for the 8GB+128GB variant going up to CNY3,999 for the higher-end 8GB+256GB variant. It is now up for grabs in China in three different colours – night black, titanium silver, and rose gold.
