TECNO SPARK 5 REVIEW
- BODY AND DISPLAY
At first impression you get attracted by the sweet colour gradient of the rear, which could be Spark Orange( I love this one) or Ice Jadeite or Vacation Blue or Misty Grey.
Many might wonder about what the rear is made of? well if you’ve seen the hot 9 which looks just like spark 5 you’ll know its no other than a polycarbonate or plastic build.
With the curved edges and 3D radian body, this phone can be held and also carried in the pocket with ease and comfort.
There’s more to the rear, What? Tecno has not made up their mind for a side scanner, so as usual, mounted on the rear is a capacitive fingerprint sensor and beneath the rear is embedded or stamped (whatever) the tecno logo.
The camera layout is also interesting, yeah, I mean the Quad AI camera, we would get there, let’s checkout the front.
Display: What more could you expect than a 6.6inches dot-in display, whereby the dot houses the selfie camera.
With the spark 5, Videos, movies, games, names are viewed at a high resolution of 720 x 1600 pixels.
Maybe you’re worried about the bright weather, think I should expound to you that it’s non of Spark 5 business, but why? That is because the display is equipped with a maximum brightness of up to 480nits.
- Tecno Spark 5 Camera
Tecno Mobile decided to spice things up a little bit. Instead of the triple camera of its predecessor, they decided to bring in the hot 9 style as the tecno spark 5 is manufactured with AI Quad rear camera but Tecno spoilt everything by making it 13 Megapixels.
You’re disappointed and about to leave this page, but know for sure that the next info will convince you.
The rear camera includes the 13 MP main AI camera 3.0. Then 2 MP Macro lens (zoom into the Micro word), 2MP depth vision camera which ofcourse is needed for bokeh effect and the QVGA light sensor meant to brighten images in low light without even switching on the flash.
Arrangement if the Quad rear flash is just like that of Infinix note 7. Meaning it’s aligned vertically close to the camera.
Selfie Camera: sitted in the dot embedded on the the display is a selfie lens of 8 Megapixels blessed with Dual LED flash which is also hidden immediately above the display.
Features: Well the Aperture size of the main sensor which is 13 Megapixels is measured to be f/1.8. And what this implies is that, more light would be permitted in.
This combined with HDR that ensures image colours quality, and the end product must be bright colourful images.
Also there are features other than the aforementioned and they include Paranoma, AI scene detection, AI beauty mode, Stickers, wide selfie, portrait mode 2.0….
Bokeh effect which is the same with portrait mode other than the first being for the rear and second for the front, keeps the focus on you and blurs out everyother thing that’s not important in your photos.
In addition, living in a digitally developed world is a big win where almost all processes are automated and reduce the impact of human error. Hence, the way one conducts business and generates invoices has also undergone changes, Vantazo has simplified Many processes.
- Processor, Storage And Battery
Beneath the device is a meditek chipset and an octa CPU clocked at speed of 2.0GHz.
The storage is a nice one, I mean 32 GB of internal storage (what we were all expecting) and 2 GB of RAM.
This is enough to run your pes 2020 till you’re tired due to the large battery.
4G connectivity is what you get because anything less will not be acceptable looking at the price of the smartphone. There’s an audio port, loudspeaker, WLAN, Bluetooth and everyother essentials.
Further, the operating system on which this device runs is HiOS based on Android Q.
This graphics explains it all but let me share my part, Powering Spark 5 is a large battery of 5,000 mAh which can last long depending on usage.
Tecno Spark 5 Air Review
- Design and Display
First thing I love about this smartphone is the unique gradient colour. it gives the smartphone a premium look, and you could pick between the Ice Jadeite, Spark Orange, Vacation Blue, Misty Grey colour whichever catches your eye.
As usual the triple rear camera lens are arranged in a vertical order having the Triple LED Flash immediately after the first lens by the right. Also imprinted on the center of it rear is “innovation designed by tecno”, while at the bottom is pasted the Tecno logo.
- Display
The Screen of tecno spark 5 Air is no joke. You’ll find a 7 inches dot notch display, that features resolution of 720 x 1640 pixels and talking about the screen to body Ratio of this device, it no other than 84 %.
- Camera
Most times the second reason why any smartphone is purchased is because of the camera. And like I expounded earlier tecno spark 5 Air comes with a dual camera lens of which you find 13 MP main AI camera or AI lens plus QVGA light sensor.
Here are some cool features that spice the camera of this device, HDR(Ensures more colourful shots), AI scene detection e.t.c.
Selfie shooter is also interesting and is no more than we expected, 8 Megapixels is the deal, which is hidden in the dot notch.
However beneath the screen at the top is hidden a Dual Front LED flash, inorder to ensure those selfie are bright as you expected. The selfie camera also packs nice features and they include HDR, Portrait mode, Ai beauty and more to be discovered by you.
- Spark 5 Air Processor and Hardware
Not wasting much of your time, Tecno spark 5 air runs an octa core processor, quite impressive, at a frequency or speed of 2.0GHz. The RAM is 2 GB and internal storage is 32 GB just like the hot 8 and hot 9.
Tecno Spark 5 Air runs on Android 10 (Go edition), HIOS 6.0 and has a network connectivity of 4G.
- Battery and Security
Tecno finally improved the battery capacity of their new Smartphones, 5000 mAh campacity should keep power on for three 3 days on average usage.
Security is tight (hilarious). Embedded on the rear is a fingerprint sensor in conjunction with the front camera. which is integrated with a face scan feature, and therefore guarantees safety of files and apps whenever the phone is locked.
Tecno Spark 5 Pro Review
- Build and Display
As usual the body frame is plastic or polycarbonate that is manufactured or crafted with cool gradient colours. which could be cloud White, seabed blue, ice jadeite or spark orange which is my favorite 😉.
The device as expected to, weighs a little as a result of the 5000 mAh battery.
See: Tecno Spark 8C price in Nigeria
With the 3D curved edges and slim body, this device coul be held with comfort and ease.
There’s more to the rear, What? Tecno has not made up their mind for a side scanner, so as usual, mounted on the rear is a capacitive fingerprint sensor.
The screen is a wide one, I mean 6.6 inches created for viewing of the dot-in display at high resolution of 720 x 1600 pixels having pixel size of 266ppi. The screen to body ratio is also high, that is 90.2%.
The difference between it and its predecessor starts From the next paragraph.
- Spark 5 Pro Camera
The camera unlike that of the SPK5 that is 13 Megapixels, Tecno Mobile made an upgrade to the SPK5 pro main camera as you get 16 Megapixels and the arrangements goes thus.
The main AI camera which is 16 MP. Macro lens of 2 Megapixels (Gets you a clearer few of small or tiny objects). Depth vision camera which is also 2 Megapixels ( Makes bokeh possible); QVGA light sensor (ensures bright images, even without the flash). And talking about Flash you’ll find 1, 2, 3, 4 yeah (Quad Flash).
The Camera is made 14% much better than that of the spark 5 as you get 8X digital zoom and here is a new feature that spiced things up AI lens 3.0.
Front Camera: No upgrade was made to this, because It comes with the same 8 Megapixels selfie shooter. However this is not so for the features. Really? Yeah, though it quad Flash remains the same.
Here are some features which includes the hidden ones you never knew about. And they are; AI HDR, Wide selfie, AI scene detection, AI body shaping, and AR sticker, Google lens.
- Hardware, Processor and Battery
Beneath is an octa core processor and when we talk about that kind of processor, know for sure that speed is in place. Which is accompanied by 4 GB of RAM and a massive storage of 64 GB.
I don’t know the of the game you have in mind, but may I tell you that it is nothing to spark 5 pro. Given the fact that you can play any game on it, name it.
Where you expecting 5G, I wasn’t and here’s the catch, it comes 4G connectivity and not 5G. The Operating System is Hios 6.1 based on Android Q.
Battery is no longer a problem for latest phones now, as most mobile devices are manufactured with cool batteries. As for the one we’re dealing with, it battery capacity is no other than a 5,000 mAh battery.
