Also with that pricing there's still Redmi 10C with Snapdragon 680 that comes with UFS, or Realme C31/C33 with Unisoc T612 (similar performance with Helio G88) but too bad that one still uses microUSB.
I think this phone should be recommend for the youth and young people, so it can be afford it for those who want to get started buying a good smartphone without spending too much. Comparing with other brands, this only one might yours. It is too close ahead to Redmi Note 12 4G's price range, pricier than this. But not regretting the cons of the device which is not matter.
For me, it's no thanks. I'm already have a smartphone in by far slightly weaker than this, once I have my income to buy a better one that I like.

Poco M3 is the cheapest phone with UFS 2.1 and now nobody uses it anymore. $130 phone is very hard to get UFS.
131 hour battery life for this price. Congrats Tecno
Unpopular opinion, but I think MediaTek needs to make a real Helio G88 successor that supports UFS storage and (maybe) 120Hz refresh rate. Seeing the newly released phones with the Helio G85/G88 immediately made me pessimistic because I was sure those phones would use emmc storage.

Not all budget phones are bad though. Redmi Note 12 4G and Poco M5 have single speaker and they scored Good in loudness with acceptable audio quality.
why i never read nfc test on gsmarena review? is noone uses nfc in daily life in bulgaria? or am i just need to reread the review?

HMD and Samsung at that price are selling some underpowered unisoc or g37 cr@p so it would be nice if they actually used g88. The best you can possibly get for this price is a76 at discount, a78 is on 200+$ phones.
Oki, 26 Apr 2023It's a budget phone, what do you want? A710, X1? Get realistic If this phone was From Samsung or HMD there will be 100 comments by now explaining how overpriced it is.
G88 is just rebranded G80, there are cheaper devices even some from Tecno with G99, there is any reason to buy cortex A75 device in sub $150 market, get Cortex A78 device or you cant atleast A76.
Anonymous, 26 Apr 2023I just stopped reading at cortex A75. Let them be forgotten. Enough with 75/76/77It's a budget phone, what do you want? A710, X1? Get realistic

Enough with 75/76/77
They really had to spend that 50 cent extra for the depth sensor we all so love.
Because more cameras is better right?
Isnt it ironic? All phones with single speaker scores average/below average,while phones with stereo speakers scores good or higher i think there is some major flaws in this new speaker testing system
At first, It looks like a cheap iphone copy with great battery life and bloatware even worse than Samsung (atleast samsung removes the google version of the same app
eg. Samsung Gallery instead of Google photos rather than both). Overall design is good for the price though I would have preferred a metal frame and plastic back so it wouldn't shatter like glass. And the chipset is a bit too weak. Plus, the cameras are average though the storage is plenty. Overall, I'd say it's a great phone for $149(might be the best iphone copy to date)
