The Pouvoir 4 is another battery based smartphone from Tecno Mobile. It is the smaller variant of the Pouvoir 4 Pro and comes with a slightly lowered storage and RAM. Although the display remains 7-inches with 720 x 1640 pixels resolution, with the same dewdrop notch above the screen, housing the front-facing camera.
The camera department also got some downgrades from the Pro Version; although still a quad setup, the main shooter is now a 13-megapixel sensor. The other three sensors include 2-megapixel wide-angle lens, a 2-megapixel depth sensor, and a fourth 0.3-megapixel lowlight shooter. For selfie, Tecno made use of a single 8-megapixel shooter, kept in the notch upfront.
The Tecno Pouvoir 4 doesn’t stray too far performance-wise. It comes packed with a minor spec bump of what we had on its predecessor. It’s easy to say this is a deliberate act to maintain the price category.
The price of the Tecno Pouvoir 4 is priced around 55,000 Naira in Nigeria.
