TECNO announces POVA 6 Pro 5G for reliable, smooth gaming
Power beyond limits
TECNO has globally launched its latest gaming smartphone at MWC 2024: The POVA 6 Pro 5G. This powerhouse delivers a huge boost especially for gaming with its groundbreaking battery, fast charging, and futuristic design.
The POVA 6 Pro 5G promises a smoother gaming experience with its 6,000mAh Mega Battery. The phone also integrates Dolby Atmos to give users an immersive sound experience.
Dynamic-Tech design
In spite of the upgrades, the POVA 6 Pro 5G measures just 7.88 thick and weighs just 195 grams. It flaunts a Dynamic-Tech design that features mini-LED lights at the back for personalization.
A total of 210 single-point mini-LEDs create a ring-shaped and propeller-shape light effect at the back. Users may even personalize the light display to indicate scenarios like calls, power status, and gaming.
Super-endurance power system
With a larger battery, the phone can deliver up to 11 hours of gaming, up to 14 hours of video streaming, and up to 31 hours of calls. When charged every one-and-a-half days, the phone’s battery can last up to six years at 80% performance.
The POVA 6 Pro 5G’s Mega Battery supports 70W Ultra Charge. Users can recharge the phone from 0% to 50% in just 20 minutes, and up to 100% in 50 minutes. A Super-Endurance Power mode at 1% also extends the battery life to up to 20%.
When it comes to safety, the battery is also durable enough to withstand charging at extreme temperatures. TECNO also equipped the battery with several safety protections like STS Secure Battery Technology, Bypass Charge, and Charging Water Detection. With this, users can expect the same battery efficiency even when charging at below 20 degrees or at 60 degrees Celsius.
Mighty performance for gaming, more
The POVA 6 Pro 5G is powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 6080 processor and HyperEngine 3.0 Lite to reliable and smooth gaming. It has 12GB of base RAM which can be extended up to 24GB, and 256GB of internal storage.
The device runs on TECNO’s HiOS 14 which has several updates, including Game Space 4.0 and Game Assistant 4.0 to optimize gaming.
When not in-game, users may also enjoy the POVA 6 Pro 5G’s 108MP main camera and 32MP LED flash front camera.
Price, availability
TECNO will release the POVA 6 Pro 5G in the Philippines, Saudi Arabia, and India at the end of February. Afterwards, it will be available across key regions in Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America.
Its projected pricing are US$ 229 for the 8GB+256 variant and US$ 269 for the 12GB+256GB variant. Like usual, pricing will likely vary per region.
