According to Chinese publication MyDrivers, Honor V40 is expected to run Magic UI 4.0, based on Android 10. It may feature a 6.72-inch OLED display with 2,676x1,236 pixels resolution. It is expected to come with 120Hz refresh rate and 300Hz touch sampling rate. Under the hood, Honor V40 could be powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 1000+ SoC that will enable 5G. The phone may come with 8GB of LPDDR4x RAM and have two UFS 2.1 storage options – 128GB and 256GB, that can be expanded via a microSD card.

In terms of optics, Honor V40 is expected to come with a quad rear camera setup with a 50-megapixel or a 64-megapixel primary sensor, an 8-megapixel sensor with an ultra-wide-angle lens, a 2-megapixel macro shooter, and a 2-megapixel depth sensor.
