Editorial report

Tecno Spark 40 8 GB / 128 GB / Global technical sheet

The Tecno Spark 40 suits buyers seeking a large, slim Android phone for social media, video and everyday tasks. Its main trade-offs are the 263 ppi display density, modest performance and 128 GB of storage, all below those of most phones of its time.

Its 6.67″ IPS LCD display runs at 120 Hz, a typical figure for its time, while the 7.7 mm body is thinner than that of most phones of its time. IP64 adds resistance to dust and water. The MediaTek Helio G91 works with 8 GB of RAM and expandable storage, but its 250,000 AnTuTu result is below that of most phones of its time.

The 5,200 mAh battery and 45 W charging are typical, and reverse charging is included. The 50 MP rear camera records 2K video at 30 fps, but the camera is weaker than that of most phones of its time. Connectivity includes 4G, Dual Nano-SIM, Bluetooth 5.3, Wi-Fi 5 and GPS, Galileo, GLONASS and BeiDou navigation.

With a NeoScore of 5.0, the Tecno Spark 40 is below most phones of its time. It is best suited to buyers who prioritize a slim body, a fluid display and broad basic connectivity over performance, display sharpness and camera capability.
