Samsung Galaxy A40

A clean OLED panel — colours pop and sunlight visibility is solid.

Best for calls, messaging, and very light browsing. Avoid heavy multitasking.

This phone is past its update window — it still works, but new Android versions and most security patches have stopped.

A standard camera setup — sharp in daylight, expect noise in low light.

Small by today's standards. Plan on charging once a day, twice if you're heavy.
