The successor to TECNO Mobile’s Spark 4 series are finally official here in Nigeria with the launch of TECNO Spark 5 and Spark 5 Air in the country. Like their predecessors, both of these new Android smartphones are mid-range products and they share similarities that include HiOS 6.1 based on Android 10, a large 5,000mAh capacity battery and 2GB RAM.
TECNO Spark 5
Spark 5 is fitted with a 6.6-inch IPS LCD display and runs Android 10 OS. Above the display is an 8-megapixel selfie camera in a waterdrop notch with dual LED flash. As already mentioned, it has a massive 5000mAh battery to keep that large screen on for a long time. Also on the inside is 32GB storage memory for your pictures, video and other files. There is a dedicated microSD card slot for you to add more storage capacity should you need it.
At the back of the Spark 5 is a quad camera, comprising of a 13-megapixel sensor, a 2-megapixel wide sensor, a 2-megapixel macro sensor, and a QVGA low light sensor. There is quad LED flash for low-light photography.
How powerful is TECNO Spark 5? It uses a quad-core Mediatek Helio A22 CPU clocked at 2.0GHz as its main powerhouse. For graphics processing, there is a PowerVR GE8320 GPU strapped in. This isn’t a very powerful smartphone, but that is expected for the price. For multi-tasking and running apps, RAM capacity is 2GB.
TECNO Spark 5 Air
The Spark 5 Air has the same Helio A22 CPU, PowerVr GE8320 GPU, 2GB RAM, 32GB internal storage, and 5000mAh battery of its sibling, but it makes its entrance with a bigger 7-inch display. If you love large displays, this is the Spark 5 model for you. It runs ANdroid 10 as well.
On the front side, the 8-megapixel selfie camera is housed in a waterdrop notch too. As a matter of fact, both phones look alike. At the back, the camera configuration is different though. This time, what we have is a dual camera comprised of a 13 MP main sensor and a QVGA secondary camera. There is a quad LED flash available for night shots.
Neither Spark 5 smartphone has fast charge.
TECNO Spark 5 Pro
The Spark 5 Pro was later to join the family, with a 6.6-inch display, Helio A25 chipset, 3GB and 4GB of RAM, 64GB and 128GB internal storage options, a 5000mAh battery, and a rear-mounted fingerprint reader.
It is more powerful and packs more functional value that the Spark 5 and Spark 5 Air.
