Tecno Pova 6 Neo Review: Should You Buy in 10 Points
Shimul Sood
The Tecno Pova 6 Neo in Midnight Shadow is eye-catching. The golden rings around the cameras give it a touch of class, and the aura light adds a bit of flair, reminiscent of those Vivo models.
Design
I spent some quality time watching Modern Family and high-quality YouTube videos. While the detail isn’t top-notch, it’s decent for the price. The phone supports Widevine L1 for Netflix but lacks HDR support.
Display
I’ve been using this phone for a while, and it’s been smooth sailing for calls and messages, scrolling through Instagram, and binging YouTube. I tested out Subway Surfers and Call of Duty: Mobile on it. Subway Surfers was a breeze, but Call of Duty was a mixed bag.
Performance
Running on HiOS 14.5, the Pova 6 Neo packs a bunch of AI tricks usually seen in high-end phones. Now, while I appreciate having these fancy features in a budget phone, I’m not exactly using them daily.
UI
The 108-megapixel AI camera delivers solid performance in daylight. While the phone takes a moment to process each shot, the final results are worth the wait—colours pop vividly, with sharp, clear details.
Camera
I pushed this phone hard—playing heavy-duty games and streaming high-quality YouTube videos. It held strong for a full day before begging for the charger. So yeah, this phone’s battery life is dependable.
Battery
The Tecno Pova 6 Neo is a good phone for the price. It has a sleek design, good performance, and a camera that takes good photos in daylight. However, some of the features could be better.
