I'm considering on getting thi... moreI'm selling mine, because parts are horribly expensive,(battery) 20-60 $. eMMC 5.1 is too slow, battery drains kinda fast at 80% health, I used AccuBattery. 100$ phone in today money is better than A40 4 times faster easy. Better battery capacity 5000mAh, better storage speed UFS 2.1 minimum, 128-256 GB.( I don't recommend 128GB unless you have a tight budget.

    So here is a list to choose from https://www.gsmarena.com/results.php3?nPriceMax=200&nCPUCoresMin=8&nRamMin=8000&nDisplayResMin=921600&nDisplayDensityMin=200&nBatCapacityMin=5000&idOS=2&idOSVersion=2930&nOrder=1

          Do all apps still work? I'm considering on getting this as a second phone, for 50€. To preserve my galaxy s23 longer. I would be using this for spotify, twitch youtube etc.

            Pragmatic, 18 Dec 2024Why are you still rocking it 😂The A40 still has a huge marketshare, especially in developing countries like India as an example.

              So is this the phone mikicrep calls better?

                This is a good device. It was a budget device in 2019, but, it is still pretty useful in 2025, especially if you take your time to unlock the bootloader and install a newer android version on it. I installed oneui 6.1 on it just to try it out (i have another phone which is my daily driver), and i end up just leaving it installed on it just because it works this well. Don't get me wrong, this is not a speed demon, but it isn't unuseable eather! The exynos 7904 is not bad, it doesn't overheat (at least on my device with the chosen rom), 4gb of ram is a bit on the low end, but a lot of budget devices today still have 4gb of ram, so it doesn't really matter at all. My battery seems to be like new even though it is already 6 years old, which is impressive! I get a full day out of it with calls, texting, browsing and social media stuff. Do i recommend you go out and buy 1? Well, it depends, if it is in a like new condition and you just need something now and you find 1 for 30 bucks? Heck yeah go for it! But if you plan to buy it refurbished from a company or so, i would say get something more recent. The only 3 things this A40 has going for it, is 1, obviously the gorgeous full hd amoled panel, 2nd this phone has an sd card slot and 3th, it has a headphone jack, no dongles needed if you still rock headphones with a cable.

                    Phone keeps showing overheating even when it's not hot. I've formatted it twice and changed power IC yet, nothing. I don't know what seems to be the problem

                        Samsung should revive the A40's small form factor. It makes sense for a cheap phone to be small in size. Especially now that Asus Zenfone 10 was the last small phone.

                        Nobody should be forced to pay extra for the base S24 just to get a small phone. Please make an S25e that is reminiscent of the iPhone 12 13 Mini.

                          I didn't bought it at the time because was way out of my budget, but I bet it would be a great choice :]

                            This phone model doesn't stop to amaze me... About a week ago, I went for a 3 day hike with it, as it was my GPS guide. As known, this phone doesn't have any type of ingress protection, and as I caught heavy rain on 2 of the 3 days, when it started shutting down I thought it was done. However, after putting it on a rice bowl for a night, it resurrected. Still, the SIM card was constantly stopped being recognised, so I had to carry the eject PIN with me every time, and shutdown the phone to reinsert the SIM card. After another couple of nights on the rice bowl (this time with the SIM and microSD card tray out), it was fixed. The only damage left from this wet 3 day hike was that the volume down button apparently stopped working, but something I can live with (in fact it already have happened some weeks ago, but unexpectedly it started working again one day later). Rock on!

                                  Just disabled the "Power Saving" option for good (trying to improve performance a bit). Let's see if I notice anything on both performance and/or battery life.

                                    Great phone. everything you want for calling, music, fotos, movies, internet.
                                    Nice and small in your pocket. 2 days battery time, still, after I have had it for 4.5 years. Can't beat this for 200E

                                      This phone is so tiny, and slippery, but as a budget phone, does feels nice to hold, taptics are horrible though, feels like a SIII vibration motor, the cameras do take pictures, but the 'pro' mode is very basic, as expected, only ISO, Exposure and White balance. It does feel slow, even though its my moms work phone and the one time I used it, it was waking up after a year hibernation. Its also becoming 5 years old, so I wouldn't recommend getting this low end phone and expecting more than a year or 2 more out of it.

                                        I have this phone - thinking about upgrading. The current samsung A15/25 looks so bad compared to this. UGhhh. Much larger bezels, heavy, ugly huge screen. Samsung has gone completely backwards in time.
