The company Xiaomi in March 2022 officially announced its new smartphone Xiaomi Redmi K40S in the series of mobile devices Xiaomi Redmi.

As well as many other smartphones with support for 5G networks in our catalog.

“Out of the box” on the new smartphone installed Android 12, which did not receive any version updates. And besides, it is important to note immediately that the model Xiaomi Redmi K40S supports two SIM cards (view all smartphones with 2 sim cards in the catalog).

But, unfortunately, with one hand you will not be comfortable with using a smartphone. In addition, Xiaomi Redmi K40S has very small frames around the screen (speaking in numbers, the screen occupies from 80% to 90% of the area of the entire front panel. And an almost invisible hole in the screen adds recognition to the smartphone and increases the screen area, but does not increase the physical size. The thickness of the case is 7.7 mm.

And this, of course, is very good. Your selfies will look beautiful and high quality. This model has a front camera as usual at the top of the screen, like 99.9% of all smartphones. But, if this makes you bored, then we can offer smartphones with pop-up front camera. In these models, the front camera is located inside the body and goes up only when you activate the front camera mode. It sounds interesting, but how convenient it is and how long this mechanism will work is not yet clear.
