Overview
The Poco C40 is a budget phone from Xiaomi, with an unverified reference price of about JOD 42 (about $60) — an estimate, not a confirmed market price. Below is its full spec sheet with a plain-language breakdown, pros and cons, and how it compares to its rivals. We have not tested this phone ourselves; everything here is derived from published specifications.
Its main highlights: its big 6,000 mAh battery, and its large 6,000 mAh battery. Its chipset is basic (12/100) — calls, WhatsApp and light browsing, as a first or backup phone.
Performance-index rank: #319 of 354 Xiaomi phones we list.
Why consider it?
A 6000mAh battery behind a 6.71-inch 720p screen, an eight-core JLQ JR510, a headphone jack and FM radio, at an estimated ≈ 42 JD.
Who it suits
Someone who wants the longest possible stretch between charges on a phone used for calls, messages and light browsing.
Who should look elsewhere
Anyone who needs 5G, games or photography - the radio is LTE only and every video mode stops at 1080p30.
Performance, camera, display and battery — and the limits of the evidence
The POCO C40 is built around one thing: the battery. It carries 6000mAh behind a 6.71-inch screen at 1650x720, which means a low pixel density and a light graphics load - precisely the combination that stretches a charge. The chip is a JLQ JR510, not a Qualcomm or MediaTek part but one from a much less widespread Chinese vendor, with eight cores peaking at 2.0GHz and a Mali-G52 GPU. Configurations are 3GB/32GB and 4GB/64GB, with storage expandable to 1TB by memory card. On charging, POCO states the phone supports 18W, but the adapter shipped in the box is rated 10W, so the default speed is slower than the headline figure. The body is 169.59 by 76.56mm, 9.18mm thick and 204g, with Corning Gorilla Glass on the front and an IP52 rating. The rear camera is a 13MP f/2.2 main with PDAF alongside a 2MP f/2.4 depth sensor, the front camera is 5MP at f/2.2, and both front and rear video cap at 1080p30. Networking covers 4G, 3G and 2G with no 5G, Bluetooth 5.0 and Wi-Fi up to 802.11ac. The fingerprint reader sits on the back, and there is a 3.5mm headphone jack, FM radio and a single speaker. The sensor list POCO publishes contains only a proximity sensor, an ambient light sensor, an accelerometer and the fingerprint reader. Software is MIUI 13 for POCO on an Android 11 base.
Alternatives worth comparing
- Galaxy M04 — For the same money (≈ 42 JD) you get the same 13+2 camera layout and a MediaTek Helio P35 - a far more familiar name - but a 5000mAh battery instead of 6000. (42 JOD · estimate)
- iPhone 7 — At a matching price (≈ 42 JD) you move to an Apple device with much higher performance, against a 4.7-inch screen, a 1960mAh battery and a phone from 2016. (42 JOD · estimate) full comparison ›
Strengths and trade-offs in detail ›
Verdict — conditional on your needs and the documented price above
If the brief is a cheap phone with the largest cell in its class that also keeps a headphone jack and a memory-card slot, this delivers exactly that at ≈ 42 JD; but if there is any chance you will need 5G, compass-based navigation, or video above 1080p, those are not settings left switched off - they are absent from the hardware.

Phones JO index (spec-based)
What does that mean in plain words?
Chipset: JLQ JR510 — basic tier (12/100): calls, WhatsApp and light browsing.
Battery: 6,000 mAh — a very large capacity by market standards. Capacity is an indicator, not a measurement: real endurance depends on the display, chipset and your usage, and we have not measured it.
Charging: 18W — standard (rated charging power; actual charge time varies with the charger and temperature).
Display: IPS LCD HD+, 6.71-inch — an LCD panel; lower contrast than OLED, and the norm at this price.
Camera: 13+2 MP (2 lenses) plus a 5 MP front camera. Megapixels and lens count describe the setup, not image quality — real results depend on the sensor and processing, which we have not tested.

Pros & cons
Pros
- A 6000mAh battery paired with a 720p panel and a chip that peaks at 2.0GHz - the combination that actually stretches a charge rather than spending it.
- A 3.5mm headphone jack, FM radio, a rear fingerprint reader, and storage expandable to 1TB by memory card.
- Corning Gorilla Glass on the front and an IP52 rating - specifications makers rarely publish at this price level.
Cons
- The JLQ JR510 comes from a Chinese vendor far less widespread than Qualcomm or MediaTek, which makes performance references and long-term update support harder to judge, and the radio is LTE with no 5G.
- The resolution is 1650x720 across 6.71 inches, both front and rear video stop at 1080p30, and the second rear camera is a 2MP depth sensor that takes no pictures of its own.
- The in-box adapter is 10W although the phone supports 18W, there is a single speaker, and the published sensor list has no gyroscope, no compass and no NFC.
