What we don't like about Tecno Spark 20 Pro Plus (8GB + 256GB)

  • Lack of 5G connectivity, which some users find outdated for its release year
  • Inconsistent software support with infrequent OS updates and some pre-installed bloatware
  • Performance can struggle with heavy graphics-intensive gaming like Genshin Impact
  • No support for 4K video recording or optical image stabilization (OIS)
  • Fragile curved screen design and reported peeling issues on certain 'Magic Skin' faux leather finishes
  • Minor connectivity bugs reported by some users, including unstable Wi-Fi on certain units
  • Lack of a dedicated 3.5mm headphone jack

Verdict

The Tecno Spark 20 Pro Plus (8GB + 256GB) is a budget-friendly smartphone offering a near-premium experience, featuring a 6.78-inch curved AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and 1000 nits peak brightness, protected by Gorilla Glass 5. It is powered by the MediaTek Helio G99 Ultimate processor and a 5000mAh battery with 33W fast charging support, providing reliable day-long performance and smooth multitasking with 8GB of physical RAM (expandable with virtual RAM). A key highlight is the 108MP main camera sensor, which captures detailed photos and supports 3x in-sensor zoom, alongside a 32MP selfie camera and loud stereo speakers with DTS support. Primary drawbacks include the lack of 5G connectivity and an ultrawide camera lens, and limited promises for future major OS software updates.
