The new Tecno Spark 50 4G has arrived, and it takes direct inspiration from the iPhone 17 Pro phones in terms of design, except you get new colors to choose from and a larger battery.
Here are the details.
Design and Display
The Tecno Spark 50 4G features a 6.78-inch LCD with a resolution of 720 × 1600 and a 120Hz refresh rate. The device measures 167.8 × 79.22 × 8.18 mm and is available in Halo Blue, Titanium Grey, Ink Black, Aurora Purple, and Bloom Pink color options as shown below.
Internals and Software
The smartphone is powered by the MediaTek Helio G81 processor and runs on Android 16.
It is offered in three memory configurations: 4GB RAM with 128GB storage, 6GB RAM with 128GB storage, and 8GB RAM with 256GB storage. Additional features include an IR blaster, an IP64 rating for dust and splash resistance, and drop resistance tested up to 1.8 meters.
It also supports FreeLink 2.0, allowing phones without network coverage to connect directly to each other at distances of up to 1.5 km.
Cameras
The Tecno Spark 50 4G is equipped with only a single 50MP rear camera, even though it looks like there are 3 shooters on the back. The other two are mostly there just for show.
On the front, it includes an 8MP camera for selfies and video calls. There is no word on video recording but it is likely limited to 1080p resolution on both cameras.
Battery and Pricing
The device is powered by a 7,000 mAh battery with support for 18W wired charging.
Tecno has not yet announced pricing details for the Spark 50 4G, but we can guess it is going to be a highly affordable phone given its budget specifications.
