Design and Display

Upon first glance, the Tecno Spark 3 gives that stylish appearance typical of the U-notch design. Within this compartment are the front-facing camera, earpiece and a couple of sensors.

Although the notch occupies the central part of the phone’s top, it can be concealed in the device’s settings for those who dislike the groove.

A super full view display is delivered by the 19:9 aspect ratio that jumps on the 6.2-inch IPS screen. Its 720 x 1520 pixels resolution is barely above that of Spark 2’s 720 x 1440 pixels.

Battery and Camera

If there’s something Tecno Mobile wouldn’t gamble on, it’s the battery life of its Spark series smartphone. Tecno Spark 3 enjoys the longevity of the 3,500mAh battery for a full day’s work.

Although there’s no mention of Fast Charge, the phone’s charger bags enough power to charge the phone swiftly.

Camera configuration on this smartphone differs based on the RAM model. Its 1GB RAM model is given a 13MP AI camera for its rear photography.

Meanwhile, Tecno Spark 3 2GB RAM variant uses dual 13MP rear cameras for its imagery. Frontal shots are captured by an 8MP shooter on both models.

Hardware and Software

As seen earlier, the smartphone has variants in terms of RAM size; another cool thing is that it transcends to its chipset build as well.

The lower memory variant operates using MediaTek MT6580 while the higher version works with a better MediaTek Helio A22 (MT6761).

HiOS skin in conjunction with the Android 9.0 Pie is thrown into the Spark 3 (2GB) as the software dictator. On the other hand, the Spark 3 (1GB) utilises Android 8.1 Oreo (Go Edition). It chops off a certain amount of the 16GB ROM allocated to store files on the phone.

Luckily, both variants can expand with an additional 32GB using a MicroSD card. Unfortunately, there’s no LTE on both variants of the phone but that’s where the Pro version shines.
