TECNO has just released a new series of budget-friendly smartphones called the Spark 30 series. This series includes three models: the regular Spark 30, the Spark 30 Pro, and a special edition inspired by the Transformers character Optimus Prime.
The TECNO Spark 30 Pro is the most powerful phone in the series. It has a beautiful 120Hz AMOLED display, a high-resolution 108MP camera, and a long-lasting 5000mAh battery with fast charging. It’s also powered by a decent processor to handle everyday tasks smoothly.
The Spark 30 Pro comes with a few accessories in the box that include an ejector pin, a transparent silicone case, earphones, a USB type C cable, and a charging adapter.
Here is our detailed review of how well the Spark 30 Pro performed.
Design and Build Quality
The TECNO Spark 30 Pro sleek and modern look offers a premium feel despite its plastic build. The device is housed in a slim 7.4 mm body, which makes it sleek and very light to carry around.
The phone feels light and good while holding it, while the back is tough enough to resist scratches. The design is modern and stylish, with a circular camera on the back and a curved edge on the front.
TECNO Spark 30 Pro Display
The Spark 30 Pro features a 6.78″ eye-care AMOLED display with Full HD+ resolution with up to a 120 Hz refresh rate and 1700 nits of brightness. The phone has a big, beautiful screen that’s easy on the eyes. It can refresh images very quickly, making everything look smooth. Plus, it’s super bright, so you can use it even in bright sunlight. One cool thing about the screen is the under-display fingerprint scanner. It’s really fast, reliable and works well.
Hardware and Software
Tecno Spark 30 Pro 5G’s MediaTek Helio G100 processor provides remarkable performance for its price range. It can handle everyday tasks like browsing the web, using social media, watching videos, and even some light gaming. While it might not be the top choice for heavy gaming, it still manages to deliver a smooth experience without overheating.
The phone has 8GB of RAM, which can be expanded to 16GB, and 256GB of storage, providing ample space for apps and files.
The Spark 30 Pro runs on HiOS V14.5.0 based on Android 14, which offers a user-friendly interface with features like Game Mode, Kids Mode, and a Smart Panel.
One of the standout features is the infrared blaster, which allows you to control your TV, air conditioner, and other devices with your phone. The phone also includes some AI-powered features like a voice assistant, Ella, AI wallpaper design, and AI-enhanced image editing.
Camera Performance
The TECNO Spark 30 Pro boasts a circular camera module design at the back with a 108 MP sensor, while the front-facing camera is 13 MP. The phone also has a quad-LED flash on the back and a dual-LED flash in the top bezel on the front.

The rear camera captures impressive images, and the 1080p video recording at 30 fps offers decent quality with good stabilization and color accuracy. However, the selfie camera’s performance is somewhat disappointing, lacking clarity and detail.
TECNO Spark 30 Pro Battery Life
TECNO Spark 30 Pro is equipped with a 5000 mAH battery coupled with the 33W fast charging capability. The phone’s fast charging capability takes that battery from 0 to 100% within an hour and 18 minutes.
Audio Quality
The phone has dual speakers enhanced by Dolby Atmos technology that provides a clear and immersive sound, perfect for various activities like gaming, watching movies, and listening to music.
Connectivity
The Spark 30 Pro also has a USB-C port for wired charging up to 33W, a 3.5mm audio jack, a dual nano-SIM + microSD card tray, FM radio, and NFC. We were expecting a 5G feature, but we got a 4.5G lightning device. With 4.5G or LTE, the Spark 30 Pro serves markets where 5G connectivity is not yet common. The phone connectivity features allow you to stay connected and entertained daily.
