Tecno Pova Neo 5G
Tecno Pova Neo 5G is a nice upgrade over the base model of the popular Pova series sold by the popular Chinese brand, which brings 5G connectivity to the mix thanks to a new, more efficient processor. You get a solid plastic body and frame construction, which features a special pattern that makes it look a lot more premium than it is. The pattern is made up of multiple lines that divide the rear panel into various sections. The camera module is secluded in its own section that looks like an imperfect mixture between a rectangle and a polygon. It hosts the camera sensors inside two large cutouts, with a small vertical slit for the quad-LED flash array.
