Introductions

Tecno Spark 8 is the beautiful device that already officially announces at September 2021, this device adopting modern design with added multiple great features that can be use all their user directly.

The Tecno Spark 8 also known as by the device model series KG6 / KG6K this model series must be unique, so the user can easily find any other support from the internet, because when only using the main device name it may difficult for several user. Then next for Tecno Spark 8 weight is 200 gram and the body dimension of Tecno Spark 8 is 164.8 x 76.1 x 9.2 mm which is this the ideal physical body number dimension for modern devices today and the for the last introduction before we can do to the deeper things is the device also available on the Blue, Purple color user options.

But, the color options availability itself may be different on the specific market country, some the device color option will only available for limited number such as because the specific event time, after the event ended the color option may be not available for the buyer.

Build Quality

The Tecno Spark 8 using Plastic combination body material, that is very common build material typically found on the entry-level up to middle level devices on the market, plastic material body is not really bad on this modern era, but still this material body it's not solid on hand, look cheap and it may easily to scratch. So, the plastic body material should not be use for flagship devices on higher price range, if you found this material on the latest flagship device it should be minus thing for the user.

Screen & User Navigation

Display screen configuration is very important factor for the user experience, in this Tecno Spark 8 the setup of display screen are ideal which is bring 720 x 1600 pixels on the screen resolution combined with 6.52" screen size. Then the display screen also have several configuration that are 20:9 ratio, (~269 ppi density).

Other the important thing on the display screen is the display panel hardware, good display panel hardware will drive more best experience to the user. Tecno Spark 8 using very common display panel hardware that is IPS LCD, it's good if used by entry-level to middle level devices. But, it should be minus when used by flagship device with higher prices product if there no any special screen technology innovation that implemented.

The physical button on Tecno Spark 8 is made very clear by it's own function, also for design and positioning of the physical button is ideal and can be easily used by user for navigating the device, such as for powering up device or adjusting the volume master.

CPU & GPU Performance

Processor is very vital hardware for processing any task on the device software, this is also included for the Graphic hardware that have main function for rendering graphic image on the device, the both of hardware is related each other every times, on the Tecno Spark 8 we can see this device use Mediatek Helio P22 for CPU model and PowerVR GE8320 for GPU model, are them good enough?

Yes, they are a good combination, this CPU and GPU setup can be use for handling multiple purpose on this device, such as for run some games, opening some apps, also have good performance when processing and rendering 3D image on the specific level that they can do at the maximal limit.

Memory

Besides CPU and GPU hardware, memory hardware is also very important sector for getting best experience for user when use that device for any multiple purpose, the memory sector itself are combination from the RAM capacity, internal memory storage and support for external expansion memory, then does Tecno Spark 8 is good enough on term of memory performance?

When we see the memory combination specification we can see the Tecno Spark 8 have 2GB / 3GB / 4GB amount of RAM, then also have 32GB / 64GB internal memory storage capacity and the user can get more storage in this device, because Tecno Spark 8 does support external memory expansion with using MicroSDXC type.

Thus, is Tecno Spark 8 have a good memory performance? from the spec said Tecno Spark 8 it's good for use to any purpose in the modern use, but it's also depending from the user perspective need.

Camera

Just like other modern smart devices that exist today, Tecno Spark 8 also have camera feature for bringing best experience to their user, on the main / rear camera feature we can found Dual Setup camera configuration feature that exist on there.

The main / rear camera specification on Tecno Spark 8 are (Main) 16 MP, f/1.8, 27mm (wide), AF for the main camera configuration setup. There was also available for secondary camera feature with spec (Secondary) 0.3 MP.

The mobile network technology that using on Tecno Spark 8 are 2G / 3G / 4G, user can freely choose the mode of mobile network on this device, because they can switch easily every times when the user needed.

Connectivity features

Actually, the best device for the modern use it should have multiple connectivity features on it, on the basic perspective the Tecno Spark 8 are already have complete connectivity features.

The wireless connectivity on Tecno Spark 8 that are already supporting by the Wi-Fi technology with the complete spec Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, Dual Band and also supported by Bluetooth version 4.2, A2DP, LE. But sadly, there was no NFC feature on the Tecno Spark 8.

Tecno Spark 8 also supported by using wired connectivity that use MicroUSB 2.0 Port technology. So, this feature can be very useful to their user for connecting Tecno Spark 8 to the other device such as Desktop Computer or other.

OS & Security

Because Tecno Spark 8 designed for the modern user, that mean Tecno Spark 8 should be operated by the smart Operating System, and the good thing is the Tecno Spark 8 already use smart OS that known as Android 11. The vendor of this device also make some customization from the basic Android 11 firmware then known as HiOS 7.6 ROM, the goal of this thing will increasing more best experience for the user, because the more feature will be added on the HiOS 7.6 ROM, that may can't be found on the basic OS.

Now, how about the security technology on Tecno Spark 8? The Tecno Spark 8 have a powerful security protection because this device using default security system from the software OS then combined with the Fingerprint (at the back) security hardware technology, then it will give more secure from the stranger access.

Speaker & Sound

Speaker hardware on Tecno Spark 8 is very same as most other devices, there was a speaker hardware with using good loudspeaker quaility for calling and play some music and the other feature on this sector that are Tecno Spark 8 fully supported by 3.5mm jack technology, which is very good by the way.
