TECNO has a new phone that truly belongs to the first smartphone ever introduced in the brand new "Curve" series: the POVA Curve 5G. What is the big deal about it. They want to mix an excellent futuristic contrast with competitive technology inside, without making one spend much.
First things first, let's talk about the display. The POVA Curve 5g has a gorgeous 6.78-inches curved AMOLED display. Not only does it look slick, but it is also an excellent performer with FHD+ resolution and an exceptionally smooth 144Hz refresh rate. Bright sunny day. Worry not. It can thump its chest with a peak brightness of 1300 nits. And to protect its soul glory, it has Corning Gorilla Glass 5 on it. Such a package comes in an unexpectedly slim body, measuring just 7.45mm.
On the software front, it is launching with Android 15, skinned with TECNO HiOS 15. The future-proof fans will be happy-the Android 16 update has already been laid out on the roadmap.
And the performance. At the heart of it is the MediaTek Dimensity 7300 Ultimate processor, manufactured using the power-efficient 4nm process. It should give enough guts for general use and maybe a little gaming. It can be coupled with as much as 8GB of RAM, and if that is not enough, one can virtually expand that way up to a mammoth 16GB.
5500 mAh battery is to keep lights on. And the 45W super-fast charging reportedly fully charges within 45 minutes. Gamers would love bypass charging that cools off the phone while gaming.
The POVA Curve 5G stands out for being equipped with a main camera featuring a 64MP Sony IMX682 sensor for all your photo-and-video-gathering needs. It shoots 4K video, great for content creators-the front camera also does 4K at 13MP. That's a strong feature for content creators.
The phone also boasts other notable features like IP64-rated dust and splash resistance, Dolby Atmos-tuned stereo speakers, and an in-display fingerprint scanner for security.
The TECNO POVA Curve 5G will launch in India on June 5. Prices should grab your attention.
- Starting from approximately $187 for the 6GB RAM & 128GB storage version.
- A little more RAM with the 8GB RAM + 128GB storage unit will cost around $199.
It appears like TECNO is really trying to deliver a highly full-featured experience at a very competitive price with the POVA Curve 5G. The display and chipset combination for below $200 is sure to turn heads.
