Tecno Pop 2 F

The Tecno Pop 2 F is for buyers looking for a basic phone for simple tasks who can accept a 2,400 mAh battery, among the lowest-capacity batteries of its time. It has no NeoScore: this is a basic phone, and there is no overall verdict placing it alongside other models.

Its IPS LCD display measures 5.45 inches and has a resolution of 480 × 960 px. Pixel density is 197 ppi, among the lowest of its time, a limitation worth noting for small text. The rear camera is 5 MP and the front camera is 8 MP; both record video at 1080p and 30 fps. A Dual LED flash sits on the rear.

The phone pairs 1 GB of RAM with 16 GB of storage, less than most phones of its time offer. Storage can be expanded with a card. It weighs 155 g and supports two Micro-SIM cards in a Dual SIM Dual Standby setup. The operating system is Android 8.1, and connectivity includes Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.2 and GPS. It also has FM radio and a 3.5 mm audio jack.

The small battery is the main compromise. The Tecno Pop 2 F is best understood as a straightforward option for basic needs, with expandable storage and support for two SIM cards as useful practical features.
