While this Tecno Phone and the Pova Neo were both released in the same month, the only thing they have in common is a 6000 mAh battery, because the Pova 5G is a significantly superior smartphone than the Neo, even without the 5G.
While this Tecno Phone and the Pova Neo were both released in the same month, the only thing they have in common is a 6000 mAh battery, because the Pova 5G is a significantly superior smartphone than the Neo, even without the 5G.
The Tecno Pova 5G has an all-plastic body and is currently available in only one colour: Aether Black. Glass covers the front, which has an Infinity-O cutout for the front camera. Three vertically positioned cameras are on the back, with the fingerprint sensor on the side, just like the Pova 2.
A 6.9-inch IPS display with a resolution of 1080 x 2460 pixels is featured on this Tecno phone. When gaming or watching fast-paced content, the display supports a 120Hz refresh rate for a seamless experience. While playing games, a 180 Hz touch sampling rate aids in faster screen response.
The Cameras
On the back, the Tecno Pova 5G has a 50-megapixel triple AI camera for capturing those special moments. A 50-megapixel wide-angle sensor, a 2-megapixel macro sensor, and a 2-megapixel depth sensor make up the camera.
Phase detection autofocus (PDAF) and Panorama are supported by the back camera, which has a quad-LED flash. There’s also some kind of video stabilization technology built-in, so you can record with more consistency even if your hands are shaking.
For selfies, there’s a 16-megapixel wide-angle camera on the front. For the selfie camera, there is also a front-facing LED dual-LED flash.
