Tecno Pova 7 5G Hits India – Big Battery, Bigger Performance!
Hold onto your wallets, folks! Tecno just dropped two new budget beasts that are about to shake up the under-20K segment. The Pova 7 and Pova 7 Pro are here, and they’re packing some serious heat for the price. Let’s break down why these phones might be your next purchase.
First Impressions: What’s in the Box?
Having checked these out at the launch event, I can tell you — Tecno Pova 7 5G isn’t playing around this time. Both models feel surprisingly premium for their price tags. The Pro version of the Tecno Pova 7 5G especially stands out with its AMOLED display that looks way more expensive than it actually is.
Price That’ll Make You Look Twice
Here’s the deal:
Pova 7:
- ₹14,999 for 8GB+128GB
- ₹15,999 for 8GB+256GB
(Colors: Magic Silver, Oasis Green, Geek Black)
Pova 7 Pro:
- ₹18,999 for 8GB+128GB
- ₹19,999 for 8GB+256GB
(Colors: Dynamic Gray, Neon Cyan, Geek Black)
What Makes These Phones Special?
Having tested similar devices before, here’s my take:
That Battery Is No Joke
So I’ve been using the Tecno Pova 7 5G for a few days now, and honestly, that 6000mAh battery is a lifesaver. I wasn’t expecting it to go almost two full days on regular use — even with some YouTube, maps, and calls. And when I played BGMI for hours, it still didn’t die on me. Just plug it in for about 90 minutes and you’re back at 100%. Fast charging actually works here.
Display? Didn’t See That Coming
Now, the Pro version of the Tecno Pova 7 5G totally surprised me. That AMOLED panel looks too good for this price — colors are super punchy, and even in direct sunlight, I didn’t struggle. The 144Hz refresh makes scrolling and gaming feel way smoother than I expected.
Performance Is Solid
Gaming? Multitasking? No issues. I had 9–10 apps open and jumped between them without lag. COD Mobile ran perfectly on high settings. For under 20K, it performs way better than you’d think
Real-World Differences Between Models
After using both:
Pova 7 Pro Wins On:
- Better display (AMOLED vs LCD)
- Slightly faster RAM (LPDDR5 vs LPDDR4X)
- More premium feel
Pova 7 Holds Its Own With:
- Same great battery life
- Identical processor performance
- Saves you ₹4,000
Who Should Buy Which?
- Students: Pova 7 gives you 90% of the Pro for less money
- Mobile Gamers: Pro’s display is worth the extra cash
- Battery Life Chasers: Both are equally amazing here
