MobilityArena Buyer’s Guide Verdict

Looking at the specs, features and price, in comparison to both competitors from other brands and existing models from TECNO, the Pova Neo is a difficult package to understand.

The main reason is the underwhelming chipset/processor. It is difficult to justify this smartphone’s ₦72,000 price tag. We find it a difficult phone to recommend.

Our Buyer’s Guide Verdict is a recommendation based on the specs of the device and a general guide to help you understand how much value a device offers for its price. It is not an endorsement of the device. Ask questions and use your judgement when buying any device; MobilityArena takes no responsibility for your buying decisions.
