Tecno Pouvoir 2, as I said earlier has a nice sleek design with beautifully curved edges. Made from polycarbonate material with a big display. The smartphone offers HD+ resolution and sized 6.0-inch. Pouvoir 2 smartphone is pretty light to handle with 1440×720 pixel resolution. It also comes with 2.5D curved glass.
Pouvoir 2 has a simple rear finish with a single camera found at the rear. The fingerprint scanner is also seen below the rear camera and front view contains the selfie flash and camera.
Tecno Pouvoir 2 Hardware and Software
Tecno Pouvoir 2 runs on Android 8.1 Oreo and works perfectly with the quad-core chipset. The smartphone has a MediaTek MT6737 processor with a Mali-T720 MP1 GPU which is okay considering the category it belongs to.
The smartphone also comes with 2GB RAM which is fair enough for a budget android phone. The internal storage is 16GB and can be expanded with microSD card up to 128GB.
Tecno Pouvoir 2 Camera And Battery
The Tecno Pouvoir 2 smartphone has a pretty decent rear camera for a clean and clear picture. The rear hosts 13 MegaPixel shooter with dual LED flash. The front packs 8 Mega-Pixel selfie shooter with LED flash. The front camera supports Face ID and takes great selfies.
When we talk of battery in smartphones, I don’t see myself using any smartphone with poor battery capacity. This is one feature I love in Tecno Pouvoir 2. Battery!! The phone packs 5000mah non-removable Li-Ion battery but the sad thing is that the battery doesn’t support Fast Charging Technology. That’s bad. But just one full charge can keep your device on for up to 96 hours.
