Tecno Spark 7 or Spark 7P or Spark 7 Pro; which should you buy?
Before we address the issue of which to buy and which is right for you, it is important to note that these phones and region dependent, and all models might not be available in your region. However, if Tecno is allowing you to chose between these three devices, here are my recommendations:
For us, the Spark 7 Pro stand out as the best among the trio, not just because it has a better design of the three, but it also has Helio G80 CPU, and most interestingly offer a larger 48-megapixel main lens.
But if processing power is not your major deal in a smartphone, then the vanilla Spark 7 on the other end is worth considering. Aside having a more pocket friendly price tag, it also come in a compact body and house the largest battery of the three. Do share your thoughts with us in the comment section below on which of these device you think is the best for you and why.
