If you’ve been waiting for a phone that offers flagship-like features without burning a hole in your wallet, Tecno might just have your back this time. The newly launched Tecno Pova 7 5G and Pova 7 Pro 5G are not just spec-heavy, they feel like they’re built with everyday Indian users in mind — and they finally go on sale starting 10 July 2025. So, the big question is: Should you buy one? Let’s walk through everything you need to know before you hit that
You know that feeling when you pull out your phone and it actually gets people’s attention? That’s exactly what the Tecno Pova 7 series is going for.
Design and Display: Looks That Turn Heads
The Pova 7 5G features a 6.78-inch Full HD+ LTPS IPS display, which is sharp, bright, and great for binge-watching. But if you want something even more premium, the Pova 7 Pro 5G steps things up with a 1.5K AMOLED screen, smoother 144Hz refresh rate, and a responsive 240Hz touch sampling rate — perfect for gaming and fluid scrolling.
And let’s talk design: Both models come with a futuristic Delta Light Interface, a strip of mini LED lights on the back that reacts to music, calls, and notifications. It’s not just cool; it adds personality.
Camera and AI Features: More Than Just Numbers
The Pova 7 5G gets a 50MP primary camera with a light sensor, while the Pro model shines with a 64MP Sony IMX682 sensor and an 8MP secondary lens. These cameras aren’t just about megapixels they’ve got Tecno’s AI working behind the scenes to improve shots in real-time.
Whether it’s low light, portraits, or food shots for Instagram, the AI does a solid job. Plus, both phones come with a 13MP selfie camera, which gives you clean, natural-looking selfies. And yes, there’s AI beautification — if you’re into that.
Performance, RAM, and OS: Smooth Sailing Every Day
Under the hood, both models are powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 7300 Ultimate chipset, which is pretty impressive for the price. Whether you’re a casual gamer or someone who juggles between apps all day, this processor won’t let you down.
You get 8GB RAM (plus up to 8GB virtual RAM expansion) and up to 256GB storage — plenty for all your apps, photos, and videos. And with HiOS based on Android 14, you’re getting a smooth, modern software experience that includes the AI voice assistant Ella, who can even understand Indian languages. That’s a nice touch.
Battery and Charging: Built for the Long Haul
This is where Tecno really flexes — a 6000mAh battery on both models. That’s not just “all-day battery” — it’s two-day battery if you’re a light user. Stream, scroll, play, repeat — this phone can handle it all.
And when you do run low, the 45W fast charging will juice you up quickly. The Pro version even supports 30W wireless charging, which is rare at this price. You can finally say goodbye to battery anxiety.
