Designed to play, powered to give it your all
Like any mobile dedicated to games worth its salt, power is one of the keys to the device. Although yes, Xiaomi has not bet on Qualcomm, a move that gives this Redmi K40 Gaming a heart signed by MediaTek. Specifically, the Dimension 1200, a high-capacity SoC that not only offers high-end 3D graphics, but also 5G connectivity. So that, even outside the home, the speed and latency are up to par.
In terms of screen, the Xiaomi Redmi K40 Game Enhanced Edition repeats with the 6.67 inches that we already saw in the previous Redmi K40s; while offering a flexible OLED panel that adapts to the front, leaving a tiny hole in the upper part to house the 16-megapixel front camera. As is mandatory in a gaming mobile, the screen offers a high refresh rate and tactile response: 120 and 480 Hz, respectively.

The photographic aspect is somewhat more out of place, as is usual. Behind the Xiaomi Redmi K40 Game Enhanced Edition has a main camera with 64 megapixel sensor; which is joined by an 8 megapixel wide angle. As a filler there is the typical 2 megapixel sensor with a macro lens; all in a vertical photographic module that breaks the design of the phone in order to distinguish itself with its ‘gaming vein’.
The Xiaomi Redmi K40 Game Enhanced Edition has 5,065 mAh battery with 67 W fast charger, includes two stereo speakers with JBL certified audio, the fingerprint reader is located on the side of the phone, has physical triggers on the right side and is updated to MIUI 12.5.
