3.6/5

Xiaomi Redmi K40 Pro is a much-awaited upgrade to the base model of the K40 series sold by the Chinese smartphone maker, which features a sturdy glass body and lightweight plastic frame. The sides and edges have been rounded to make it easier to hold, while the front panel remains flat. The display is protected by the latest Gorilla Glass offering, and the selfie camera is placed in a tiny punch-hole cutout. The rear panel has been given a frosted matte finish, with the camera module featuring a dual-tone finish. There is even a fingerprint sensor that has been integrated with the power button.
