The Tecno Spark 20 Pro Is the iPhone for Brokes.

Now you can fool your little nephews and nieces to thinking they got a new iPhone, oh it also includes the dynamic island.

In 6 days, it will be Christmas. What’s that in your little cousin, niece, or nephew’s gift list? Why, it must be the latest iPhone. However, you probably can’t sell your internal organs yet (since you might need it for a rainy day) and so the best solution is to come up with an alternative to satisfy them.

Worry no more as Transsion is here to assist you with your little problem. Introducing… the Tecno Spark 20 Pro! Unlike the iPhone’s measly 50MP, the main camera of this phone has 108 megapixels! It’s one way to convince your little ones why this is better. We’re not even factoring the price yet. The phone also comes with a 32MP selfie camera. Fancy!

Everyone’s favourite chipset, and Transsion’s main chipset of choice for the time being, the MediaTek Helio G99, is in this phone too. You don’t need to explain that to them. Just say it’s just as good as the iPhone for gaming, and probably heats up less. To convince them further, say the phone has more RAM and storage, and you can fit a MicroSD Card in too which means you don’t have to worry about that iCloud subscription. For the Spark 20 Pro, the phone comes in 8GB RAM + 256GB ROM configuration. Unlike the iPhone, you can have up to 16GB RAM here… if you use some of the phone’s internal storage.

The display is a 6.78″ IPS LCD screen with 120Hz refresh rate. If they complain that it looks like an Android phone (and frankly, it is), just show them the dynamic island (called dynamic port here) which this phone has. That might come in handy explaining to them either (also, if their tita or tito has an iPhone, you can make a quick comparison).

This one also charges faster than the iPhone which is still stuck at 20W. The Tecno Spark 20 Pro comes with 33W fast charging and 5000mAh battery, also with the same type of USB-C port as the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus—2.0! The Tecno Spark 20 Pro has more functionality than the iPhone 15 as well, as evident with its 3.5mm jack.

It has 4G LTE, Wi-Fi 6/6e, NFC, and Bluetooth 5.2 connectivity. If you’re not yet convinced, the phone comes in a similar colour scheme as the titanium iPhone 15 Pro but named quite differently. (The green and pink one don’t count). These are Moonlit Black, Frosty Ivory, Sunset Blush, and a special Magic Skin Green in a glossy matte finish.

Oh what’s that? Android interface? Just install an iOS launcher in. It should be enough for them to think otherwise. Also, “HiOS” sounds very similar to “iOS”, just say it’s a new version, they won’t notice.

Wanna hear the price? It’s PHP 8,999. However, it’s currently discounted to PHP 7,499 in Shopee. We’re hoping you’re convinced why you should pick this over the iPhone for your little one’s Christmas present.
