Motorola Moto X40 Review: The 2nd Gen of Snapdragon 8
Source: Igeekphone English
In other words, the moto X40 is comparable to the models on the market equipped with 4700-4800 mAh batteries. If the capacity is the same, the moto X40 will have half an hour more battery life. Judging from product design and actual performance, the moto X40, which focuses on business style, focuses on practicality without compromising on quality. It can be said to be very competitive at the same price. If you need a business-style mobile phone that is not too ostentatious, has extremely high requirements for performance in daily experience, and also needs to take photos in multiple scenes, then this moto X40 is very suitable for you. Do you want to consider getting one?

Qualcomm Adreno 740: Graphics chip for smartphones and tablets that is integrated within the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC. Qualcomm claims that it is 25% faster than the Adreno 730 in the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 and first benchmarks show that the GPU can beat the Apple A16 iGPU (previously the fastest smartphone GPU). 

Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

In addition to the processor cores, the SoC integrates a WiFi 7 modem, a Hexagon DSP (for AI acceleration) and a Spectra ISP.

6.70":

It is a small display format for smartphones. You shouldn't be severely defective in vision, and you won't see much detail on the screen and only have a small resolution available. For that, the device should be small and handy, easy to transport.
