Features edit

The V40 was LG's first smartphone to feature 5 cameras: 2 on the front and 3 on the back. On the front there are dual cameras, while on the back there is a telephoto lens, a standard lens, and a wide-angle lens. This feature was the marquee feature of the V40. The V40's camera received a score of 97 from DxOMark.[2]

The V40 also featured a 3300 mAh battery, which was standard at the time for the V series (the V30 and its derivatives had also featured a 3300 mAh battery). The phone has built-in Qnovo's intelligent battery management software Archived 2020-10-30 at the Wayback Machine which aims to extend the lifespan of the battery and provide best battery user experience.
