For optics, it gets triple rear cameras, including a 108MP rear camera, a secondary 2MP camera, and an AI camera with dual LED flash. At the front, there’s a 32MP wide camera for selfies.

Tecno Pova 6 Pro 5G: Should You Buy It?
At Rs 19,999, the device competes with some of the strongest contenders, such as the Realme Narzo 70 Pro 5G, iQOO Z9 5G, and the Lava Blaze Curve 5G. While the Tecno Pova 6 Pro 5G has the biggest battery, it falls behind in terms of software and the Chipset in use. All three devices mentioned above have a better chipset, while the Lava offers the same amount of storage for a cheaper price tag.

The Tecno also has an advantage in terms of design in case someone wants a flashy smartphone with the LEDs on the back. Still, for those who want practicality, the Realme Narzo 70 Pro 5G and the Lava Blaze Curve 5G offer you that in terms of cameras, as both of them get an ultra-wide angle camera sensor on the back while Tecno doesn’t.
To sum up, while the Pova 6 Pro does stand out in terms of battery and design, it’s competitors are offering a much more practical product with better cameras, better chipset, more storage for a cheaper price tag, superior and more polished software and even a curved display which might appeal to some.
