Yesterday, we heard the official word from a Samsung executive that the Samsung Galaxy M40 specs would include a major camera upgrade as compared to the Samsung Galaxy M30. Today, via SamMobile, we’re learning a bit more about the alleged specs of the next Galaxy M product.

According to information obtained by SamMobile, the Galaxy M40 will come with a triple-lens camera with a previously-confirmed 32MP primary sensor. In addition, there will be a 5MP depth and 8MP ultra-wide sensor on the rear. On the front, we already know for certain there will be a 16MP selfie shooter.

Elsewhere in the Samsung Galaxy M40 specs, we’ll find a 6.3-inch FHD+ 2,340 × 1,080 resolution Infinity-O display. Infinity-O is the punch-hole display found on the Samsung Galaxy S10 series. This is a bit of a step up over the Galaxy M30 (depending on how you feel about notches), which features the Infinity-U display, also called a waterdrop notch.

The Qualcomm Snapdragon 675 processor will be on board, paired with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage.

Unfortunately, the battery life on the M40 will be a downgrade as compared to the M30. The Galaxy M30 came with a hefty 5,000mAh battery, whereas the Samsung Galaxy M40 specs show a 3,500mAh battery. While that’s not a small battery when compared to other mid-range/budget devices, it’s certainly a stark difference from the M30.

And, finally, the Galaxy M40 will ship with Android 9 Pie out of the box, the first device in the M series to do so (the other three devices all have Pie upgrades, though).

The Samsung exec previously mentioned confirmed the Galaxy M40 will be “around 20,000 rupees,” or about $287. A more specific price is not yet known.
