Last month, Tecno unveiled the Tecno Pova Curve 5G in India. Now, the brand has globally introduced Pova 7 series, featuring five distinct smartphones designed to appeal to tech enthusiasts and gamers. The lineup includes the Pova 7 Ultra 5G, Pova 7 Pro 5G, Pova 7 5G, Pova 7, and Pova Curve 5G.

The Pova 7 series introduces Tecno’s new “Interstellar Spaceship” design, Mini‑LED Status Light, and HiOS 15 Special software. Users can expect deep AI integration—including Ask Ella, AI Writing, Circle to Search, and AI Studio tools—as well as bold colour options and matching accessories.

At the top of the range, the Pova 7 Ultra model is powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 8350 Ultimate chip and comes with a 6,000mAh battery. It supports 70W wired charging, 30W wireless, and even 10W reverse charging. Gaming performance is boosted by a 12-layer Hyper Cooling System and a vapor chamber, while 4D vibration and dual speakers with Dolby Atmos deliver immersive sound. Additional features include FreeLink for peer-to-peer calls and Tecno’s AI suite, cantered around the AI Anywhere Portal.

The Pro version shares the family design language and charging features of the Ultra, including 30W wireless fast charging. It also offers the full set of AI tools found in the Ultra model, making it a compelling choice for users who want a premium experience without going all the way up to the Ultra tier.

This base 5G model rounds out the core trio of performance-driven devices. It carries forward the series-wide support for 30W wireless fast charge, AI Anywhere functions, and bold, minimalist styling. With a focus on speed and efficiency, it offers excellent value for on-the-go users. The entry-level Pova 7 (4G) sticks to the sleek triangular design motif, incorporates 30W wireless charging, and embeds the Pova AI tools set.

The official press release also mentions the Pova Curve 5G (review), which has already launched in India. Readers can visit this link to know more about it. The entire Pova lineup will be available in the Middle East, Southeast Asia, South Asia (including India), and Latin America.

While Tecno has revealed several key features of the lineup, the detailed specifications of each model have not been fully disclosed yet. Once the complete spec sheets are released, we will share a comprehensive breakdown.

The post Tecno Pova 7 Ultra 5G launches globally along with other Pova 7 series phones appeared first on Gizmochina.

The Tecno Pova Curve 5G enters the competitive sub-Rs 20,000 segment with a focus on design and display, offering a curved AMOLED screen, a slim profile, and a MediaTek Dimensity 7300 Ultimate chipset. Priced at Rs15,999 for the 6GB+128GB variant, it aims to attract buyers looking for a premium feel without breaking the bank. But does it deliver where it matters? Let’s break it down.

Design and Build

• 164.3 x 74.6 x 7.45mm | 188.5 grams
• IP64 rating
• Colors: Cosmic Black, Magic Silver, and Neon Cyan

The Pova Curve 5G stands out with its sleek, starship-inspired design, featuring a curved back and display. At just 7.45mm thick and weighing 188.5 grams, it feels surprisingly light despite housing a 5,500mAh battery. The frame and back are made of polycarbonate, but the matte finish gives it a more premium look while resisting fingerprints.

Available in Geek Black, Magic Silver, and Neon Cyan, the phone has an IP64 rating for splash resistance—a welcome addition at this price. The right side houses the power button (with an orange accent) and volume rockers, while the top includes an IR blaster and a secondary speaker. The bottom holds the USB-C port, SIM tray, and a loudspeaker grille. A pre-applied screen protector would have been nice, especially for a curved display, but Tecno includes a translucent case in the box.

Display and Audio

• 6.78-inch AMOLED curve-edge screen
• FHD+ (1080 x 2436p), 144Hz refresh rate
• 2304Hz PWM dimming, 1300nits peak brightness
• Gorilla Glass 5
• Dual speakers

The 6.78-inch FHD+ AMOLED panel with curve-edge design is the phone’s highlight. While the panel supports an impressive 144Hz refresh rate, real-world usage shows it primarily operates at 120Hz for most UI interactions and apps, with the option to force 144Hz in select applications like Instagram and WhatsApp through manual settings.

With 1300nits peak brightness and Gorilla Glass 5 protection, visibility under sunlight is good. The curved edges enhance the premium feel, and Tecno has done well to minimize accidental touches.

For media consumption, the display supports HDR on YouTube (but not Netflix) and delivers vibrant colors. Dual stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos provide a decent audio experience, though the bass could be stronger.

Performance and Software

• MediaTek Dimensity 7300 Ultimate
• LPDDR5 RAM | UFS 2.2 storage
• Variants: 6GB+128GB | 8GB+128GB
• 5,500mAh battery | 45W charging
• Android 15 | HiOS 15

Powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 7300 Ultimate (4nm), the Pova Curve 5G handles everyday tasks smoothly. The 8GB LPDDR5 RAM variant (with optional 8GB virtual expansion) and UFS 2.2 storage ensure snappy app launches and multitasking. In benchmarks, it scores around 6.7 lakh on AnTuTu, placing it ahead of many competitors in its range.

Gaming performance is respectable—BGMI runs at 90fps on Smooth settings, though sustained high graphics may cause slight heating. The 11-layer cooling system helps, but this isn’t a dedicated gaming phone.

On the software front, HiOS 15 (based on Android 15) is cleaner than previous iterations but still has some bloatware. Tecno promises one major OS update (to Android 16) and two years of security patches—a weak point compared to rivals offering two OS updates. AI features like Circle to Search, AI Eraser, and a multilingual voice assistant (Ella) add some novelty.  The phone stands out with its practical AI features supporting Indian regional languages like Hindi and Bangla, enabling smart replies, voice input, and recommendations in local vernaculars.

Battery life is excellent, with the 5500mAh cell lasting a day and a half on moderate use. The 45W charger claims a 50 percent charge in 30 minutes, but real-world tests show a full charge takes around 75 minutes. Here’s how the device performed on benchmarking apps.

Cameras and Other Features

• Front: 13MP
• Rear: 64MP Sony IMX682 + 2MP bokeh

The dual-camera setup includes a 64-megapixel primary sensor (Sony IMX682) and a 2-megapixel depth helper. Daylight shots are detailed with good dynamic range, though colors lean slightly vibrant. Portrait mode works well with accurate edge detection, but low-light performance is average, with visible noise.

The 13-megapixel selfie camera captures decent shots in good light but struggles in dim conditions. Both front and rear cameras support 4K@30fps recording, a rarity in this segment, though stabilization could be better. The device offers a couple of handy AI-powered photography-related features like AI Eraser 2.0 (removes unwanted elements from photos), AI Sharpness Plus (enhances details), AI Portrait Expansion (recreates backgrounds in portrait shots), and AIGC Portrait (generates artistic avatar version of photos).

Other notable features of the Pova Curve 5G include Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.4, an in-screen fingerprint reader, NFC, an IR blaster, and AI-driven features like real-time translation and transcription, which functions quite well.

For better connectivity in challenging scenarios, the Pova Curve uses AI to continuously optimize signal reception in areas with low network coverage. According to the brand, with 86.5 percent antenna enclosure coverage and full-body signal design, it minimizes blind spots for more reliable connectivity. Additionally, the phone is specially optimized for low-network environments, making it particularly suitable for users in remote areas and Tier 3 locations where network fluctuations are common. This includes support for VoWiFi Dual Pass technology, which helps maintain uninterrupted call quality by seamlessly switching between available networks.

Verdict

The Tecno Pova Curve 5G presents an attractive package in the budget segment, combining a premium curved AMOLED display with a sleek, lightweight design, dependable performance, and many AI-powered features. Priced competitively at Rs 15,999, it stands as a worthy alternative to devices like the Realme P3 Pro and Poco X7, though potential buyers should note its limitations, particularly the promise of just one major OS update and the absence of an ultra-wide camera.

The phone shines with its 144Hz refresh rate display, IP64-rated build quality, impressive battery life with 45W fast charging, and capable daylight photography. While these features make it an excellent choice for users who value aesthetics and display quality, those prioritizing long-term software support or more versatile camera capabilities might find better options in alternatives such as the CMF Phone 2 Pro or Infinix Note 50s 5G.

Ultimately, the Pova Curve 5G strikes a fine balance between style and substance, making it particularly appealing for buyers who want a premium-looking device without stretching their budget.

The Pova Curve 5G variants, such as 6GB+128GB and 8GB+128GB are priced at Rs 15,999 and Rs 16,999, respectively. The 6GB variant is available via Flipkart in India, whereas the 8GB edition is only sold offline.
