The ZuPick verdict

2.6out of 5

SkipBest at display, weakest at performance.

The excellent screen and durable design cannot offset the substantial compromises in performance, software longevity, camera versatility and charging convenience. More balanced alternatives are available for similar money.

Based on specs, expert reviews and owner discussions.

Performance1.9

It reaches about 0.8 million on AnTuTu, well below what most phones at this price manage. UFS 2.2 storage and only two years of Android updates further weaken its long-term appeal.

Camera2.2

The 50 MP main camera has optical stabilisation, but there is no optical zoom and video tops out at 4K30. An 8 MP ultrawide and 13 MP front camera provide limited versatility for this price.

Display4.0

The 144 Hz AMOLED screen combines smooth motion, a sharp 1208x2644 resolution and 4500-nit peak brightness. It falls short of the best displays because it lacks LTPO technology.

Battery2.5

The 6500 mAh capacity is generous, but tested endurance of 10 hours 40 minutes is modest. Charging is limited to 45 W, and the lack of wireless charging reduces convenience.

Value3.1

The display, large battery and rugged protection are attractive for ₹46,999. However, the slow storage, limited camera reach, moderate charging and short update policy make the asking price difficult to justify.

Pros & cons

What’s good

Bright, fluid AMOLED

The 144 Hz AMOLED panel makes scrolling and animation exceptionally smooth. Its 1208x2644 resolution is sharper than standard Full HD, while 4500-nit peak brightness helps outdoors.

Large battery, slim body

Tecno fits a 6500 mAh battery into a 7.39 mm, 189-gram body. That is an appealing combination for buyers who want capacity without a bulky phone.

Excellent environmental protection

IP68 and IP69K protection provide unusually strong resistance to water and dust. Gorilla Glass 7i adds reassurance for frequent travel and outdoor use.

What’s not

Weak premium performance

Processing power and UFS 2.2 storage are considerably behind faster alternatives around this price. Demanding games, large installations and long-term responsiveness are the main concerns.

Short software support

Only two years of Android updates is poor for a phone buyers may expect to keep for four years or longer. Several rivals offer substantially longer support.

No optical zoom

The camera relies on digital magnification rather than a dedicated telephoto lens. The 8 MP ultrawide and 4K30 recording also feel modest beside stronger camera-focused rivals.

Cable-only, moderate charging

The large battery charges at 45 W and takes around 75 minutes from 20% to full. There is no wireless charging, a convenience increasingly expected at this price.
