Infinix Note 40 Pro+ review

Introduction and specs

The Infinix Note 40 Pro+ is the company's budget big-screen solution in its 2024 portfolio and tops the Note lineup as the most feature-rich device.

One of the handset's standout features is the large 6.78-inch OLED panel with 10-bit color depth and 120Hz refresh rate. The Dimensity 7020 SoC drives all the pixels and is paired with a generous 12GB/256GB memory combo.

Another impressive feature is the Note 40 Pro+'s charging capabilities. It supports 100W fast charging over a cord and up to 20W wireless charging using the company's MagCharge wireless charging pad. But more on that later. You can also charge other devices using a cable or the phone's reverse wireless charging tech.

The camera department keeps it simple, though, as the back holds just one usable camera - 108MP with wide f/1.8 aperture. The other two units are for depth sensing and macro photography.

Besides features that make the Note 40 Pro+ a great budget solution for productivity on the go, the handset also offers a standout design and JBL-tuned stereo speakers to complement the large screen.

The back design offers a vegan leather finish, providing an excellent, premium-like feel and grip. An IP53 dust and splash protection will give you peace of mind to some extent as well.

Unboxing the Infinix Note 40 Pro+

The phone comes in a standard box containing the usual user manuals along with the appropriate 100W charger and a USB-C to USB-C cable for charging and data transfer.

In addition, Infinix provides a curved glass screen protector and a protective case that matches the phone's vegan leather design.

MagPad charging pad and MagPower powerbank

We also received some goodies that aren't usually included in the retail package. One box contains the MagPad wireless charging pad and a powerbank that can charge the phone wirelessly or via cable. As the name of the charging pad suggests, it has magnetic functionality, but to make use of it, you have to use the provided protective case that snaps on the phone.
