In January, Honor is likely to launch the Honor V40 smartphone. It will be the first phone from the brand after its separation from its parent firm, Huawei. Leaked information on the charging capabilities of the Honor V40 had appeared in recent reports. A fresh leak by reliable tipster Digital Chat Station reveals that the V40 may offer the highest touch sampling rate seen on a smartphone.
The Xiaomi Black Shark 3 gaming smartphone and ASUS ROG Phone 3 offer the highest touch sampling rate of 270Hz on a smartphone. According to the new leak, the Honor V40’s touch sampling rate will exceed the 270Hz touch sampling rate. The tipster also mentioned the V40’s has an ultra-clear screen with curved edges and high refresh rate support. The leak has no information on the display size of the device.
Previous reports have claimed that it could be coming with a 6.72-inch display that will offer a refresh rate of 120Hz. The FHD+ resolution supporting screen is expected to feature a dual punch-hole cutout at the upper-left corner.
The Dimensity 1000+ SoC may most likely power the Honor V40 smartphone. There are contradictions regarding the rear design of the phone. A recent report claimed that it has a round-shaped camera module, whereas a previous leak had revealed that it has a rectangle-shaped camera housing. The handset is expected to feature the Sony IMX700 40-megapixel RYYB lens as the primary shooter.
The Honor V40 that has a model number of YOK-AN10 was recently seen at the 3C certification platform with a 66W fast charger. It is speculated that the device could be coming with support for 45W fast wireless charging. There is no word on the pricing of the Honor V40.
