Infinix Philippines quietly brought new Zero series smartphones into the country. One of them is the new Infinix Zero 40 5G.
Below-Php10,000 Infinix phones like the HOT 50 Pro+ already have impressive specs for the price, so we’re expecting nothing less from a sub-Php18,000 smartphone like the Infinix Zero 40 5G.
Unveiled in August, the Zero 40 5G boasts a 6.78-inch AMOLED screen with an FHD+ resolution and a high 144Hz refresh rate. The fingerprint scanner is in the display while the audio comes out of the stereo speakers.
The MediaTek Dimensity 8200 Ultimate chipset handles day-to-day tasks and gaming. Infinix paired it with a large 12GB of RAM and 512GB of internal storage. It ships with Infinix AI∞ and is secured to receive up to Android 16.
Having a 5,000mAh battery is not surprising, and Infinix claims the battery health lasts 4 years. 20W wireless charging is also supported, while the 45W wired adapter can charge the Zero 40 5G to 60% in just 25 minutes.
The camera system is quite beefy. We have a 108-megapixel main camera with optical image stabilization, a 50-megapixel ultra-wide, 2-megapixel depth sensor, and another 50-megapixel for selfies.
Currently, the Infinix Zero 40 5G 12GB/512GB is listed in Shopee for Php18,119 and in Lazada for Php18,649. Infinix’s first foldable phone, the Zero Flip, also made its way on both e-commerce platforms.
