Tecno Spark 30C 8 GB / 256 GB / International technical sheet
The Tecno Spark 30C suits buyers who want a large, fluid display in a lightweight phone; its main trade-offs are performance and camera specifications that rank below most phones of its time. The display measures 6.67 inches and refreshes at 120 Hz, while its 263 ppi pixel density is lower than that of most contemporaries. At 187 g, the phone weighs less than most phones launched around the same time.
This version pairs 4 GB of RAM and 128 GB of eMMC 5.1 storage with a MediaTek Helio G81 Ultra. The phone is also sold in an 8 GB / 256 GB configuration. Its 48 MP camera uses a 1/2.96-inch sensor, among the smallest in phones of its time, and has no optical image stabilization. The 5000 mAh battery supports 18 W charging; both figures are below those of most phones of the same period.
Useful details include Android 14, Bluetooth 5.4, dual Nano-SIM, a 3.5 mm audio jack and IP54 resistance. The Tecno Spark 30C has an overall NeoScore of 4.3 and ranks worse than most phones launched around the same time. It makes sense for buyers who prioritize a large 120 Hz display and lower weight, and can accept its limits in pixel density, camera, battery and performance.
