Though it’s a quad-core chipset, it can deal with your general day-to-day multitasking, and you will be able to play small 2D/3D games. Yes, it has only 2GB of ram. We suggest you not to install heavy apps on this phone.

Camera:

It introduced a quad-camera setup on the rear- a 13 MP primary + 2 MP depth + 2 MP Macro and a QVGA camera. Selfie: It features an 8 MP front camera for selfie. Camera quality: This 13 MP rear and the 8 MP front camera can catch colourful images in bright light. But both camera struggles in the night. In general, the camera performance is not that special. But regarding the price, it is acceptable.

And the charger needs nearly 4 hours to get a full charge. OS: The mobile runs on Android 10 + HIOS 6.1. The HIOS 6.1 is easy to customize and will give you a fresh experience.

Final Opinion:

Spark series is a budget-oriented low mid-range series from Tecno. The brand has provided some contemporary values in this phone; a big battery, balanced UI and decent performance. To get the best result, compare the price and features with other brands before buying this phone. But If you’re a non-gaming person, you can buy this phone.
