The smartphone also supports Dolby Atmos for sound enhancement. Galaxy M40 also features ‘Screen Technology’ where it uses the display instead of the earpiece.

Price

The phone is priced at Rs 19,990, and it will be available from June 18 at 12:00 pm via Amazon India. The smartphone comes in two colour options of ‘Seawater Blue’ and ‘Midnight Blue’.

It is notably the most expensive phone in the series as yet. It features a punch-hole camera display like the flagship Galaxy S10 series. The Galaxy M40 however doesn’t have a 3.5mm headphone jack.
