Latest Tecno Phones
User opinions and reviews
I actually have my kid bro some money to buy spark 4 pro, surprisingly he came back with this phone and some balance…I was mad that he bought a fake phone and had some confrontation with the seller….cos I wasn’t expecting two removable batteries…
I bought the phone last week and tbh it’s becoming the best I ever used
How much is it?
The spark 4 Air is written 6000mah bc it has 2 batteries. Each is 3000 mAh but honestly on the average it’s a sleek good phone.
Do d two batteries work at d same time?
Can I get a 4000mah removable battery for spark 4 air
new phone and new updates, and a very good storage capacity too
It’s actually a nice phone… kudos to tecno
everything nice about the phone, cool camera too
A blue light keeps popping out when I’m trying to take a pic. Pls help
how much is tecno spark 4 air
Pls for those who has the Spark 4 Air with extra battery, does the battery last bcus I want to buy the phone but the battery capacity is not giving joy..?
I really don’t like mistake, so someone that has exactly that Spark 4 Air should call me and let me know about the battery strength, if it last or runs down like a thirsty Ocean. +234(0)7069119006… I need this info today or tomorrow because I want to get the phone on Thursday
I jxt bought the spark 4 Air and it comes with two batteries…u can call me to talk abt it… 07081854088
I have been using spark 4 air for 4 months now. Nice phone but the problem is auto-reply message for calls. When someone calls and the phone is in the pocket it sends funny messages and there is no option to change the preset messages. imagine u call someone and it texts “I am safe now”
Have gone carlcare but still no help
hi,kindly lemme know if there’s a screen for Tecno spark 4,kc 6 model
Techno keep doing phone but the battery mAh keep going down
spark 2 has a capacity of 3650 same as spark 3 now the new product has a battery capacity of 3000
why please do something about it
This is spark 4 Air, that’s the reason the battery is small. The main Spark 4 has 4000mAh battery.
I changed to Tecno for one reason: Battery. I have been having an L8 which was incredible at battery life. Recently I got a Spark 3 Pro and honestly am very, very disappointed. It’s a Camera Phone, yes, but how will u use the Camera when the battery is down! I charge it overnight, switch it on at 7 hrs and by at most 18 hrs the battery is down. Very annoying.
Tecno u r doing a great job but as Erasmus says, battery life keeps going down. Pls do something abt it. Otws great work!!!
Hi… Like I replied the other comments above, the air versions of most Tecno Phones has reduced specs, which also reduce the battery capacity, of course, except for the Tecno Pouvoir 3 Air which retained it 5000mah and the Camon 12 Air also retaining it 4000mAh battery. For the Spark 4 Air… There’s just 3000mAh battery. But the standard spark 4 has 4000mAh battery.
The spark 3 pro it’s quite a good Device but it’s not battery phone unless you switch to spark power or pourvoir 3 plus
That is to say i will go for spark4 be that. Because of the battery capacity and vogue.
Comment:I have only one problem about tecno is battary as well,pairvo 2 has only 3000 mah and spark 4 has 3000mah only
This is Spark 4 lite, not the standard spark 4.the standard spark 4 has 4000mAh battery. And I’m also sure that the Pouvoir 2 you are talking about is the Pouvoir 2 air. The standard Pouvoir 2 battery is bigger.
Daz spark 4 air hav a battery of3400 or 4000 wen buying new one
that is good but the battery capacity is too low
battery too poor
I bought mine and at the back was written 6000mah
only to discover it’s false
Really….? Cos I’m finding it hard to believe Tecno would do that. Are you sure the device is original?
My own has two battery
The phone has a removable battery which has a capacity of 3000 amh so upon purchasing a phone they will give u another spare battery which is also 3000amh which will give it 6000amh all together
Really…Thats good. Thanks for the heads up bro.
tecno has done a great job this year
But it comes with an extra battery
I don’t think so
Is it supposed to come with an Extra Battery…or I dont understand whybyounsaid….”I dont think so”
Yes it has a spare battery
it shouldn’t be more than 50k
hhow much is spark 4 pro
Good day all. is the battery non removable? Is it dual 3000 mah battery?
Yes, it is
It’s not a bad phone but for all the techno phones I have held, this is one of the worst batteries. It doesn’t last for long and the extra battery is also not good I will need to buy a new battery yet I bought this phone in a techno shop
Please i can’t get access to music gallary with my new Tecno spark 4 air . please any way forward
Clear the cache of your gallery app from settings >> apps. Or try another gallery app from Google play store.
Pls does d speaker sound very well and does it have higher volume and base speaker
My problem with the phone is the led notification is not working please any ideal on what too do because I hardly notice when I have missed call on my phone. If truly this led is not working means techno company are really stupid.
Pls How much can i get a new Tecno spark 4 air in Abuja ….?

Fantastic view on this device , it’s budget friendly too
When I bought spark 4air I thought it was super but this is a quality phone although once my speakers refused to work but after a restart they worked again so can u explain wat happened

This Tecno spark 4air is a good phone but the only disadvantage it has got it’s battery is bad as that of button phones

I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT TECNO SPARK 4AIR AND THE EXTRA BATTERY THAT COMES WITH IT. BUT MINE WAS STOLEN AND I NEED THE SAME PHONE BACK BUT IT SEEM NOT TO BE IN THE MARKET. SO HOW DO GET THE EXERT?
Normally I love Tecno phones but my spark 4 air is good it charges fast but the battery at times is weak.
I’ve been using the phone since February 2020 surprisingly the phone is still in good shape my screen hasn’t cracked cos I maintain it, here’s my advice update ur phone and ur system software like Samsung ,it can update system of 2014 to 2020.
I’m looking forward to change my phone although I am using infinix hot 9.
So just try updating it phone and u might see changes

Worst phone I have ever used, weak battery, numb fingerprint, this is one of d reasons I don’t like Tecno phones, there products always ain’t quality as the rest phones that are of the same price like infinix
But it’s front camera is not that good
What can I do about that?
