Tecno Pova comes to India with Helio G80 SoC, 16MP quad cameras and 6,000 mAh battery

Shenzhen-based smartphone maker Tecno is bringing its latest entry to the Indian budget segment with the Pova phone. The device was already announced globally last month but the Indian version has some differences in the camera and memory configurations.

You still get a 6.8-inch IPS LCD upfront with HD+ resolution and a punch-hole cutout in the left corner for the 8MP selfie cam. The back houses a 16MP primary shooter alongside two 2MP units for macro shots and a fourth AI lens. You also get a rear-mounted capacitive fingerprint scanner.
