Hey everyone please try Revvl 4 cases or Tecno Spark 4 Air cases.
Not perfect but REALLY close….like 90-95% accuracy down to the hole cutouts for the camera and fingerprint scanner. I have this phone but it’s called Alcatel Axel on AT&T and AT&T doesn’t have cases for the Axel either smh lol.
My phone is sitting in a case that’s technically for a Revvl 4 right now.
