Announcement. Tecno Spark 9 Pro is a modern state employee for Africa with an advanced front camera

Tecno introduced a series of smartphones Spark9. And somehow clumsily. First, I gave out devices to African bloggers and they began to shoot video reviews. Then some official pictures appeared in some places and everyone began to cheerfully scribble news. And today, finally, information on one of the devices, Tecno Spark 9 Pro, appeared on the official website. Here, let's get to know him.

Like most other devices from this manufacturer, Tecno Spark 9 Pro is not particularly expensive. And its most curious feature is a strong front camera.

The chipset is MediaTek Helio G85, so you can expect 200-250 thousand points in AnTuTu. Not too much, but not frankly a budget solution.

A lot of permanent memory - 128 GB. But with the operational a little greedy - only 4 GB. There is support for memory cards, but the tray is hybrid.

The screen is nothing special. Diagonal 6.6 ″ (103 cm²,) resolution 1080 × 2460 (407 ppi). There is no increased refresh rate.

The battery is absolutely classic by modern standards, 5000 mAh. Slightly accelerated charging - 18 watts.

The front camera has a resolution of 32 MP.There are three rear cameras, 50 + 2 + 0.08 MP - the main one, a depth sensor and proprietary AI Lens for better performance in low light conditions. Most likely, one should not hope for super-quality cameras. Although, judging by the reviews, the front camera really shoots well. At least in good African lighting.

The fingerprint scanner is correct, lateral. Type-C and dual-band Wi-Fi are present.

₦99,000 (₽13,600, $236) at launch in Nigeria. About the possibility of the appearance of Tecno Spark 9 Pro in other countries and on other continents, I have no information yet.
