Tecno introduces new Pop 9 affordable phone with Helio G50 | Infinium-tech
Tecno introduced an LTE-only smartphone called Pop 9 in August, which was later relaunched as Spark Go 1. It was then launched in Africa with the Unisoc T615 chip, and today, it has arrived in India with another new SoC – the Helio G50 by MediaTek. , The Tecno Pop 9 remains an entry-level device, as evidenced by its sub-$80 price tag.
Tecno hasn’t shared the full specs sheet of the phone, and we can only assume it has a 6.67-inch LCD with HD+ resolution, similar to the African namesake.
The front features a “Dynamic” punch hole for an 8 MP camera, hinting at Apple’s Dynamic Island. Tecno implemented this feature by wrapping some animations and notifications around the shooter.
The camera island design on the back is another nod to Apple and its iPhone 15, but here the Tecno Pop 9 has only one snapper with a 13 MP sensor and PDAF.
Other “unlimited” features implemented by Tecno are a 5,000 mAh battery, 3 GB RAM that can be doubled via the Memory Fusion feature in Settings, and an IR blaster that can act as a universal remote control .
The Tecno Pop 9 4G comes with 64GB of storage, and users can choose from one of three colors – Glittery White, Lime Green, or Starlight Black. The phone will go on sale from November 26 on Amazon India at a price of Rs 6,699 (about $80).
