Editorial report

Tecno Spark 5 pro technical sheet

The Tecno Spark 5 pro is suited to someone looking for a large display and expandable storage, provided a 720 × 1600 px resolution is acceptable. Its 6.6-inch IPS LCD panel has 266 ppi. The size leaves room for viewing content, while the resolution keeps the display’s detail modest.

The battery has a 5000 mAh capacity, and the 128 GB of storage can be expanded. The phone pairs 4 GB of RAM with an octa-core MediaTek Helio A25. Expandable storage gives room for files, but the RAM capacity makes this a basic configuration. It runs Android 10 and does not support direct operating system updates.

The rear main camera has 16 MP, an f/1.8 aperture and 1080p video recording at 30 fps. There is also a 2 MP macro camera and an 8 MP front camera, which records at 1080p and 30 fps. The rear main camera has no optical image stabilization. Connectivity includes Dual Nano-SIM, 4G, Wi-Fi 5, GPS and Galileo, along with microUSB and a 3.5 mm audio jack.

This is a phone for someone who prioritizes a large display, a 5000 mAh battery and expandable storage. The trade-offs are the modest screen resolution, 4 GB of RAM and the lack of direct operating system updates.
