TECNO’s new SPARK 20 Series of smartphones, the successor to last year’s SPARK 10 Series, is proving to be a popular option for South Africans.

This can be largely attributed to TECNO’s approach with the new models, in combining price consciousness with innovative technology. Great value for money is the order of the day, and having access to top tier technology that makes lives more convenient, easier and fun, while at the same time not emptying the bank account is a key focus for TECNO.

This is reflected in the SPARK 20 Series, which covers a range of price points, ensuring that no matter a person’s budget there will be a smartphone option that suits them.

SPARK GO 2024

This starts with the SPARK GO 2024 (with a recommended retail price of R1,999), which boasts plenty of upgrades from its predecessor, including faster functionality, enhanced audio, and an even more stylish design.

Powered by an octa-core processor, this phone also boasts a 90Hz refresh rate, long-lasting 5,000mAh battery and speedy charging, dual DTS speakers, a 13MP rear camera, and a stylish glassy look design.

SPARK 20C

The SPARK 20C is a notable standout in terms of popularity with South Africans (with a recommended retail price of R2,999).

Standout features include a dual speaker DTS setup for improved audio loudness and clarity, a 50MP dual rear camera to capture precious moments in life, 128GB of storage space, NFC connectivity for easier payments and communication, and 5,000mAh battery with 18W fast charging.

SPARK 20P

Similar to the SPARK 20C, the main differentiator for the SPARK 20P is its priority of storage space and efficiency. With its 256GB storage, there’s more than enough space for everything. This is also useful when it comes to TECNO’s Memory Fusion technology, which is present on the phone.

This allows unused space to be borrowed and allocated to extra RAM so that the 4GB of RAM on the phone can be expanded up to 12GB.

This action enhances the device’s multi-tasking capacity, allows for seamless switching between applications that are running concurrently in the background, quickly retrieves frequently accessed files and apps, and stabilises the phone’s systems for more sustainable performance and longer battery life.

SPARK 20

Powered by a MediaTek G85 gaming processor, the SPARK 20 is packed with big storage of 256GB and 16GB RAM (8GB + 8GB extended through Memory Fusion technology).

Its 6.56-inch display accompanies a 90Hz refresh rate, leading to a stunning visual journey for users.

To complement the visuals, stereo dual speakers complete the all-round user experience, cranking up the volume by 400% from previous iterations.

Photography with the SPARK 20 is a breeze thanks to a 50MP rear camera and an impressive 32MP selfie camera. A 5,000mAh battery and 18W fast charging round out the impressive features.

SPARK 20 Pro 5G

The latest addition to the SPARK 20 Series in South Africa, the SPARK 20 Pro 5G is a powerful 5G smartphone, which offers compelling performance boosted by a high-speed MediaTek Dimensity 6080 5G processor, a 108MP Ultra Sensing Main Camera, and a sleek new appearance with Lamé Curve camera design.

With SPARK 20 Pro 5G, every moment of entertainment is a thrilling spectacle.

It features both Hi-Res certified stereo dual speakers and Dolby Atmos, bringing movies, games and music to life like never before.

Ensuring entertainment looks as good as it sounds, a 120Hz FHD Hole Screen delivers bold and beautiful visuals.

Visually stunning, the SPARK 20 Pro 5G boasts luxurious, skin-friendly Tech Art Leather inspired by high-end car interiors with a delicate texture excelling in form and function.

A 5000mAh battery with 33W Super Charge, and huge 256GB ROM + 16GB RAM (8GB+8GB extended) rounds out the SPARK 20 Pro 5G.
