THE TECNO SPARK 5 REVIEW
It is a big day for Tecno Mobile fans as the newly-announced Tecno Spark 5 has just hit the stage. The Spark 5 comes with a 6.6” screen and a quad camera on the back with a quad-LED flash. An octa-core processor from Mediatek powers the beast alongside Android 10 and a massive 5,000mAh battery.
The Tecno spark 5 comes in four colors: Misty Grey, Ice Jadeite, Vacation Blue, and Spark Orange.
The Spark series has been known for its affordable price tag, and this does not disappoint. A price tag of $125 for the spark 5 or 75000XAF in Cameroon means many will go for it.
