The Tecno Pop 7 Pro is the latest and greatest in the Pop lineup, although using the word ‘greatest’ for a budget phone seems weird. In any case, it offers the nearest thing to a premium smartphone without costing all your savings.

The phone features all you need in a cheap premium smartphone, from a big battery to a large screen and expandable storage. However, that’s not all that makes the Tecno Pop 7 Pro great; its specs hide more awesomeness (and some disappointing information).

In this article, you’ll learn about the Tecno Pop 7 Pro specifications, from details about the display to how many gigabytes of RAM the phone has. Before that, however, we’ll show you the Tecno Pop 7 Pro price in Nigeria to help you learn how much you’re paying for the performance.

What is Tecno Pop 7 Pro Price in Nigeria?

The Tecno Pop 7 Pro is one of the few Tecno phones universally available in Nigerian e-commerce stores. Surprisingly, the prices are within the same range, with the phone costing the same on Jumia and Konga. Here’s a full breakdown of the Tecno Pop 7 Pro Price in Nigeria.

Tecno Pop 7 Pro Specifications   

Checkout some of it’s special features;       

Display

The Tecno Pop 7 Pro uses a giant 6.56 inches IPS LCD with 720 x 1612 pixels. It’s the same screen size and resolution as the Pop 6 Pro, which isn’t a particularly excellent display. While the 6.56 inches size is massive, the screen’s resolution is nothing to write home about, as some budget phones from top brands like Samsung feature better screens.

Unlike higher-end Tecno phones, the Tecno Pop 7 Pro doesn’t have a high refresh rate screen; if you want 90Hz or 120Hz, you may want to up your budget.

Processor

The phone features a Mediatek Helio A22, a budget chipset that Tecno uses in many devices. It’s the same processor in the Tecno Pop 6 Pro, so you should expect similar performance on the Pop 7 Pro as its predecessor. Note that the Pop 5 Pro also uses the MediaTek Helio A22, making it three generations using the same chip.

This processor has four cores, all running at 2.0 GHz, making it fast enough to run the operating system and some lightweight apps. It will only show its weaknesses once you attempt to run high-end games like Call of Duty Mobile and PUBG, both of which are unplayable on the phone.

Battery

The battery on the Tecno Pop 7 Pro remains unchanged from that of the Pop 6 Pro, as the phone features a 5000 mAh cell, which is big enough for the processing power. Since the phone’s chip can only get so fast, you wouldn’t have to worry about running apps that drain your battery.

If you can save to go with the Pro version of the seventh generation of the Pop lineup, you shouldn’t need a power bank to get excellent battery life, just like with the Pop 5 Pro and the Pop 6 Pro.

Cameras

The Tecno Pop 7 Pro uses a dual camera setup, including a 13 MP primary sensor with autofocus and a QVGA lens. You also get dual-LED flash for night shots and support for panorama and HDR. The best you can get from the hardware is 1080p at 30fps, which isn’t particularly remarkable.

The selfie camera is even more unremarkable, as it’s a simple 5 MP selfie camera without LED flash or built-in autofocus. Also, you shouldn’t expect 1080p from the 5 MP lens; that’s only possible with the rear camera.

RAM/Internal Storage

The Tecno Pop 7 Pro has a single model with 64 GB of internal storage and 3 GB RAM. Both are enough to run the operating system it ships with and if the 64 GB isn’t enough for your use case, you can always add an SD card to expand the storage. There’s no higher or lower storage option for the Pop 7 Pro.

Water Resistance

Like most other phones from Tecno, the Tecno Pop 7 Pro isn’t even a competitor in terms of water resistance. Since the phone has no IP rating, you should keep it away from water if you want your device to last.

Operating System

Unlike the Tecno Pop 6 Pro, the Pop 7 Pro runs a full version of Android 12, albeit on Tecno’s HiOS 12 skin. For comparison, its predecessor runs on Android 12 Go, a lightweight version of the OS designed for low-power devices and tiny apps.

With Android 12, the phone will let you install the full version of Google Photos and the Google App instead of forcing you to stick with Gallery Go and Google Go. However, you should remember that the phone has a low-end processor and only 3 GB of RAM, so you shouldn’t expect groundbreaking performance.

Biometrics/Sensors

The Tecno Pop 7 Pro has a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner, which sounds like a downgrade from the side-mounted sensor on the Pop 6 Pro. If that means you’ll get a full Android version, however, I’ll call it an excellent trade-off.

Also, you get other necessary sensors in a smartphone, including the accelerometer and proximity sensor.
