Earlier this month, the Infinix Note 40 Pro series was officially announced in India. The devices include the Note 40 Pro and Note 40 Pro+ series models. But now, the brand has finally started the first sale of the Note 40 Pro+ 5G in the region. So here’s everything you need to know.

Infinix Note 40 Pro+ 5G Specs

The brand’s latest Note series phone sports a tall 6.78-inch curved AMOLED display. It offers a Full HD+ resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, Corning Gorilla Glass protection, and up to 1300 nits of peak brightness. Under the hood, it is equipped with the MediaTek Dimensity 7020 SoC that is paired with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage. This device runs on the Android 14 OS based XOS 14 custom skin out of the box. A 4,600mAh battery pack powers this device, which supports an impressive 100W wired fast charging and 20W wireless fast charging as well as 5W and 10W reverse wireless and wired charging.

The post Infinix Note 40 Pro+ 5G goes on sale in India with 100W fast charging, bright AMOLED display, & special offers appeared first on Gizmochina.

Infinix Note 40 series was announced on March 18 for the global market. The lineup has four models, such as the Note 40 (4G), Note 40 Pro (4G), Note 40 Pro 5G, and Note 40 Pro+ 5G. We will soon be reviewing and sharing our thoughts on some of these devices.

The brand recently confirmed that it will unveil the Note 40 Pro 5G and Note 40 Pro+ 5G on April 12 in India. The All-Round FastCharge 2.0 charging technology, a successor to the All-Round FastCharge tech on the Note 30 series last year, is the USP of the Note 40 lineup. Hence, the company is advertising the Note 40 series with the #TakeCharge hashtag.

What does All-Round FastCharge 2.0 mean? To ensure, our phones do not run out of battery juice midway through the day, Infinix has introduced the All-Found FastCharge 2.0 technology on the Note 40 series. Apart from up to 100W wired charging, the Note 40 models support wireless charging, reverse wireless charging, magnetic wireless charging, bypass charging, and charging in extreme weather conditions. In addition, it also includes a new magnetic wireless charging power bank.

The Cheetah X1 chip, a self-developed chip, is available inside the Note 40 Pro+ 5G, apart from the Dimensity 7020 SoC. It is a power management chip to handle various charging features, such as wired charging, bypass charging, and reverse charging. In addition, it can monitor in real-time how much current is being delivered to the phone and ensure it does not overheat.

Wired Charging: Up to 100W charging

The Note 40 Pro+ 5G, which packs a 4,600mAh battery, is the only phone in the series to feature 100W charging. The Note 40 Pro 5G packs a 5,000mAh battery and supports 45W wired charging. On the other hand, the Note 40 Pro (4G) and Note 40 (4G) support 75W and 45W wired charging, respectively. Both 4G phones have a 5,000mAh battery.

The Note 40 series displays a unique pop-up window when connected to the in-box 100W charger. It shows three charging modes:

• Hyper: Fully charges the phone in around 35 minutes (in my experience).
• Low-temp: Around 6 to 10°C cooler than the Hyper Mode. The company claims that the charging temperature is maintained at 30°C in a 25°C stable environment.
• Smart: It offers the best of both Hyper and Low-temp modes. In my experience, it took around 50 minutes to achieve a full charge.

MagCharge Wireless Charging: MagCase, MagPad, MagPower

Magnetic wireless charging uses magnets to align and secure the charging pad to the device being charged. Due to the precise alignment that magnets facilitate, magnetic wireless charging offers a more stable connection, faster charging speeds, and improved efficiency compared to regular wireless charging, which solely relies on electromagnetic induction.

Magnetic wireless charging eliminates the need for precise positioning, as the magnets guide the device to snap onto the charging pad effortlessly. This feature addresses common issues with regular wireless charging methods, such as misalignment and positioning challenges.

All four models in the Note 40 series support 20W magnetic wireless charging. The series comes with the company’s MagKit, which includes the following items:

MagCase: A special case with a leathery finish that features a ring of magnets for snapping a magnetic wireless charging pad.

MagPad: A magnetic wireless charging pad that supports 5W / 7.5W / 10W / 15W charging speeds, with a maximum current input of 11V2A. It is compatible with EPP, PD, QC, and PE+ charging protocols.

MagPower: MagPower is a wireless power bank that employs magnetic charging technology. It weighs only 53 grams and packs a 3,020mAh battery. You can attach it to the back of the Note 40 series to wirelessly charge at 5W or 7W charging speeds. The image below shows that it features a power button and a battery level indicator.

When the MagPower is connected to a power source and at the same time snapped to the back of a phone, it can offer a maximum charging speed of 18W. The power bank supports charging inputs up to 9V/3A, as well as Qi and EPP charging protocols. According to Infinix, MagPower is the thinnest and lightest magnetic wireless charging power bank.

Reverse Charging

The Note 40 series supports wired and wireless reverse charging. With wired reverse charging, the charging speed is up to 10W, whereas it supports 5W reverse wireless charging.

Other Charging Features

• Bypass charging: During heavy usage like gaming or watching videos, the Note 40 series can use the bypass charging technology to directly provide current to the motherboard by bypassing the battery. This also helps in minimising heat buildup and protecting the battery’s life.
• Extreme weather charging: High-density batteries inside the Note 40 series can withstand extreme cold conditions, even charging the device at minus 20°C. 
• Smart overnight charge: Note 40 Pro+ 5G utlizes AI to limit overnight charging to 80%, preventing overcharging until closer to the user’s morning wake-up time.
• Universal charge: The Note 40 series charger’s USB PD 3.0 compatibility allows it to power a variety of devices, including earbuds, laptops, and phones.
• Magic Ring: The notification area around the display punch-hole will show the battery percentage when the device is being charged.
• Active Halo Light: The Note 40 series has Active Halo RGB lighting on the back. It will pulse while the device is being charged and when it is fully charged.
