The only good thing is the display quality, but... BAD WiFi, and overall UI, feels like being made for housewives and children. From time to time UI freezes, WiFi does not switch to the closest one, it just shuts down switching to 4G. Absolutely garbage experience.

After fiddling with all the settings for a few days I managed to get 11.5hrs of screen-on time and 31.5 hours total time on battery, with 10% charge remaining. I'd consider my usage moderate. I did limit the CPU to 70% max and I imagine this helped and I didn't perceive any difference in performance compared to 100%. I don't use the device for 3D gaming though, so it likely be noticeable in games.

Overall a great phone for a great price. I deliberately chose the A40 for its plastic materials because I like a light phone that bounces when dropped, not a heavy phone that dents and cracks easily when it's inevitably dropped. Adding a case would just add bulk and weight.
