Vivo has unveiled the V40 SE 5G alongside its foldable flagships, the X Fold 3 and X Fold 3 Pro. But unlike its pricier siblings, the V40 SE targets the mid-range market.

Vivo hasn’t revealed the official pricing yet. Currently featured in Austrian and European regions, the listing reveals that the phone will serve as the official smartphone for Euro 2024.

Vivo V40 SE 5G Specifications:

The V40 SE 5G boasts a large 6.67-inch Ultra Vision AMOLED Display with 1080 x 2400 pixels resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, and brightness of up to 1200 nits. For HDR content it can reach up to 1,800 nits. This should provide excellent readability even in bright outdoor conditions. The display covers the DCI-P3 color gamut for vivid colors. In terms of dimensions, it measures 158.3 x 73.1 x 7.79 mm and weighs 185.5g.

Under the hood, the device is powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 chipset. While not a top-of-the-line processor, it should handle everyday tasks and light gaming just fine. The phone comes with 8GB of LPDDR4x RAM and 256GB of UFS 2.2 storage, with the option to expand storage up to 1TB via a microSD card. Out of the box, the device runs on Funtouch OS 14 based on the latest Android 14.

On the back, you’ll find a triple-camera setup with a 50MP main sensor, an 8MP ultra-wide sensor, and a 2MP auxiliary sensor. The front-facing camera for selfies is 16MP.

The V40 SE packs a decent 5,000mAh battery with support for 44W fast charging. It can charge the device up to 50% in around 24.5 minutes. Additionally, it features Smart Charging Engine 2.0 and Overnight Charging Protection for extended battery life and safety.

The phone comes in two color options: Crystal Black with a composite plastic back and Leather Purple with a vegan leather back. Both options offer an in-display fingerprint sensor and an IP54 rating for dust and water resistance.

Vivo V30 series smartphones made its global debut not long ago. However, there’s already news floating about the upcoming V40 series. The Vivo V40 SE, for instance, has been seen in certifications like Bluetooth SIG and GCF. Now, a leak by Appauls has revealed the smartphone’s renders and specifications.

Vivo V40 SE Renders and Specifications

The leaked renders show the phone’s design much different from the V30 series. But it’s surprisingly similar to the recently launched Vivo Y200e 5G. Particularly, the V40 SE’s blue color option looks strikingly alike, and it may also come in a light purple shade.

Not only the design, but the phone’s specifications also don’t seem to differ much from the Y200e. The Vivo V40 SE is rumored to be powered by the Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 chip, the same as the Y200e, along with LPDDR4X RAM and UFS 2.2 ROM.

On the front, it’s said to feature a 6.67″ AMOLED display offering FHD+ (2400×1080 pixels) resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate.

Camera-wise, the phone may debut with a rear setup consisting of a 50MP main lens, an 8MP ultra-wide-angle lens, and a 2MP lens for portrait or macro shots. The front will likely have a 16MP selfie camera. It will also include an in-display optical fingerprint sensor for security.

Moreover, the phone is rumored to pack a 5000mAh battery with 44W fast charging support, and possibly an IP54 protection rating. Other rumored features of the device include MicroSD for storage expansion up to 1TB, Dual SIM support, Wi-Fi 5GHz, Bluetooth 5.0, USB-C 2.0, and GPS.

All the rumored specifications of the Vivo V40 SE seem quite similar to those of the Vivo Y200e. So it appears like a re-branded device.

Price and Launch (Expected)

As for the price, the report suggests that the V40 SE’s 8/256GB configuration will be priced within the EUR 250 – EUR 300 range.

While the phone’s official launch date remains under wraps, it has a UEFA Euro 2024 wallpaper with Vivo as the official smartphone brand. The Champions League will start on June 14th, so we can expect Vivo V40 SE’s launch around that time.

The camera setup on the V30 Lite 5G features a 64MP main sensor leading the rear trio, accompanied by an 8MP ultrawide lens and a 2MP macro lens. There’s a 50MP front camera housed in a punch-hole cutout that ensures striking selfies.
