Editorial report

Tecno Pova 5 Pro 8 GB / 128 GB / International technical sheet

The Tecno Pova 5 Pro suits people looking for a large 120 Hz display and fast charging. Its trade-offs are peak brightness below that of most phones of its time and a weight of 212 g, making it heavier than most. Those are relevant considerations for frequent use in bright surroundings or for anyone who prefers a lighter phone.

The IPS LCD display measures 6.78 inches and has a resolution of 1080 × 2460 px. Its 50 MP camera has an f/1.6 aperture, among the best of its time, but the phone has no optical image stabilization. The 5000 mAh battery supports 68 W charging, which is faster than on most phones launched around the same time. Storage is expandable, and the operating system is Android 13.

Overall, the Tecno Pova 5 Pro is typical among phones launched around the same time. It has a NeoScore of 5.5. It is worth considering for people who prioritize a large display and fast charging and can accept a heavier phone and lower-than-most peak brightness.
