Last week, Motorola announced a bunch of budget smartphones. One of them was Moto E40. This device has now made its way to India. Let’s take a look at what this handset offers and how much it costs.

Motorola Moto E40 Specifications and Features

The Motorola Moto E40 features a plastic build with IP52 certification for splash resistance. The phone sports a 6.5-inch  IPS LCD panel with a resolution of 720 x 1600 pixels (HD+), a 90Hz refresh rate, a punch-hole, and a 20:9 aspect ratio.

Like any other budget smartphone, it arrives with a 3.5mm headphone jack, a MicroSD card slot, and a USB Type-C port. Additionally, it also has a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor and a dedicated Google Assistant key.

Further, the handset is powered by a UNISOC T700 SoC coupled with 4GB RAM and 64GB storage. It runs Android 11 with Motorola’s My UX UI on top of it.

Talking about optics, it houses a triple camera on the rear consisting of a 48MP primary sensor, a 2MP macro snapper, and a 2MP depth sensor. Then, there’s an 8MP front-facing camera inside the punch-hole.

As far as connectivity is concerned, the device supports dual-SIM, 4G, WiFi, Bluetooth, and GNSS. Last but not least, it comes in two colors (Carbon Gray, Pink Clay) backed by a 5,000mAh battery with support for 10W charging.

The Moto E series will be getting a new model soon and it is expected to launch as the Moto E40. Ahead of the launch of the phone, a leak has revealed all of its key specs as well as a price range.

The Moto E40 will have a 6.53-inch display. The screen has an HD+ resolution and a 90Hz refresh rate according to the young German blogger, Nils Ahrensmerier of Mobilegeeks, who posted the specifications on Twitter.

A Geekbench result already revealed that the chipset is a Unisoc processor and now we know it is the Unisoc T700, the same one inside the Moto G20 that was announced in April. Motorola will ship the phone with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of expandable storage. We expect there will be other configurations at launch.

For its cameras, the Moto E40 will have a 48MP primary rear camera and two 2MP sensors. The 2MP cameras are most likely macro and depth sensors. In front is an 8MP camera that should suffice for video calls and selfies.

There is a 5000mAh battery inside the phone that charges at 10W. While that is slow in 2021, the big battery should mean most of your charging will happen overnight. The Moto E40 will run Android 11 out of the box with Motorola’s My UX on top. With respect to the price, Nils says that the phone will cost between €160 – €170 ($188 – $199).

The Motorola E40 renders show that it has a centered punch hole for the front-facing camera, vertically arranged triple cameras, and a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner. The back appears to be polycarbonate and it has a wavy pattern to make it easier to grip. The power button is textured and above it is the volume rocker and a third button we believe is to call up the Google Assistant.

Coming on the back of the release of the Moto E20, Motorola is priming up two more models that should launch any time from now. The two models on the lineup of subsequent releases are the Moto E30 and E40. However, the Motorola Moto E40 has just been spotted on Geekbench, with some details also available about the device. This follows the appearance of the Moto E30 on Geekbench a few days back.

The Geekbench listing follows an earlier appearance of the Moto E40 on NBTC, FCC, and TUV. These important certifications point in only one direction- that we are very close to the launch of the Moto E40 smartphone. According to the Geekbench running sub-library information, the Moto E40 sports a 1.8GHz eight-core Unisoc chip, and will offer 4GB of RAM, while the smartphone will run on the Android 11 operating system.

As per the actual Geekbench performance, the phone scored 352 and 1352 points respectively, on single-core and multi-core tests. The Moto E40 will come with a 5,000mAh battery with 10W charging support.

There are still several aspects of the specifications of the Moto E40 that are still lacking, although we know that the Moto E40 will have 64GB of internal storage, while there is a rumor of a 3GB RAM variant as well. The trajectory of certifications and performance tests on Geekbench, although not definitive, may indicate the imminent launch of both the Motorola Moto E30 and E40 smartphones. We’ll continue to put the two devices on the radar for any new development regarding their launch.
