The device is equipped with a 13-megapixel rear AI Quad camera and an 8-megapixel front camera. The device also features 6 flashlights with 4 situated around the back camera and a dual front flash that makes the device absolutely fearless of dark light, promising clearer, brighter and more charming pictures with bursting colours no matter how dark the environment is. Users can also enjoy close-up photography with a 4 cm macro photography mode that enables them to capture small and minute details. Additionally, the device includes AI HDR technology to increase dynamic range beyond what is captured by the camera’s sensors, allowing users to take photos with a higher dynamic range, fewer noise and clearer details.

HIGH PERFORMING MACHINE
With Spark 5, you can literally forget about your power bank. The Spark 5 Series packs a punch with a powerful 5,000 mAh battery, so that consumers can run powerful applications and multiple tabs without the need to constantly recharge. The high-performance device that runs on HIOS 6.0 allows for a wide range of user customization without requiring rooting the mobile device. The operating system is also bundled with utility applications that allow users to free up memory, freeze applications and limit data accessibility to applications. With the device’s dark mode, the phone also gives users more battery time and decreased blue light emission, reducing eye strain.

Spark series targets trendy students who love fashion, but the phone has quickly risen to fame with young working professionals and middle-aged folks. “If the young ones can have it, why can’t we have it too”, they must have reasoned.
The Spark 5 comes in 2 variants; TECNO Spark 5 Air and TECNO Spark 5. Both variants feature TECNO’s HIOS 6.0 built on Android Q, and is available at a sweet price range of 47,000 Naira and 49,000 Naira respectively.
