<p>It’s the month of May and in the itel universe that means the launch of a new P series phone. The itel P40 is now available in Zimbabwe.</p>
<p>The P series in the itel lineup of phones is basically the flagship or top of the brand. What this means is that if you’re looking for the best itel phone available right now – this is it.</p>
<p>Yes, some will say that this is an entry-level phone compared to other brands. Indeed it is a budget phone, but it is the best of the itel brand budget phones.</p>
<p> </p>
<h2>Itel P40 Specs</h2>
<p>The most striking thing about the P40 is its battery which is coming at 6000 mAh. This is a bigger battery than its predecessor which was 5000 mAh. Itel claims that this battery can last 3 days on a single charge. For those that eventually buy this phone, please comment below with your experience.</p>
<p>It also comes with bigger RAM (4GB option) and Memory (64GB) and now has 4G LTE.</p>
<p>Though 4GB is the actual RAM, you will find the box of this phone says it has 7GB. The other 3GB being added there virtual RAM. Virtual or Extended RAM just means the itel P40 utilizes its internal storage to provide additional RAM. This is a fairly common thing with smartphones these days. It makes the phone even faster.</p>

<h2>Itel P38 and P40 compared</h2>
<p>The P40 is a successor to the Itel P38 which was launched in 2022. So yes, if you were planning to buy the p38, then this is a much better phone. Of course, the P38 makes sense in Zimbabwe if you’re getting it at a price of around $80.</p>
<p>Here’s a comparison of the two phones. <em>It’s not clear why Transsion (the company behind itel)  skipped the P39 number here. If we learn the reasons we will update this article.</em></p>
