Tecno Pova Curve 5G Expert Review Summary
Expert Rating:
![G.S Vasan]()
Verdict
The Tecno Pova Curve 5G offers a sleek design, a vibrant AMOLED display, and smooth performance with the MediaTek Dimensity 7300 chip. The performance can last long with a large 5,500mAh battery and 45W fast charging. The phone offers decent photos and passable 4K video on both cameras. The UI has many features, but can feel cluttered. Also, there's no OIS, microSD slot, or headphone jack. Still, it's a solid value pick if you can live with these omissions.
Pros
- Slim, ergonomic design
- Smooth, pleasant display
- Reliable performance
- Big battery and fast charging
Cons
- No microSD card slot
- No 3.5mm headphone jack
- Softer details in selfies
Ergonomic design with a good display
+
Right as we started using the phone, we noticed two things: one, the sci-fi-inspired patterns and prints on the back panel, and two, how slender the phone feels, which can be attributed to its curved sides. The handset is also pretty light, weighing 177 grams, and its slim and curvy figure makes it quite handy. I could easily slide it into my jeans pocket, take it out, and use it while standing in crowded metros. And there have been instances where its design was grabbing the attention of bystanders.

On the back, the phone's 64MP (Sony IMX682) primary camera sits in a large ring, highlighting its size and prominence. At 1/1.73-inch size, it is a bigger sensor than the 1/1.95-inch sensor inside the POCO M7 Pro. Even though the iQOO Z10x hasn't specified the sensor size, its 50MP sensor has a lower resolution than the Pova Curve 5G's sensor.

Reliable performance with clean, customisable software

The underlying Dimensity 7300 Ultimate chipset uses the 4nm process node and tops at a 2.5GHz clock speed. The chipset is a proven performer found even on some midrange phones. The performance is reflected in our in-house benchmark tests:

Respectable battery life and charging
+
The Tecno Pova Curve 5G packs a 5,500mAh battery with 45W wired fast charging (adapter and USB-A to USB-C cable included). In the PCMark Battery Test, the Pova Curve 5G ran for 11 hours and 19 minutes in our rundown test, which is behind its competitors like iQOO Z10x with 14 hours and 20 minutes and POCO M7 Pro with 17 hours and 46 minutes runtime.

Closing statement: Is there enough wow factor here?
+
The Tecno Pova Curve 5G strikes a balance between style and substance. The handset boasts a very ergonomic design, and this is partly thanks to the curved AMOLED display, which is pleasant to read and interact with. At Rs 15,999, you are also getting a reliable MediaTek Dimensity 7300 Ultimate chipset that handles daily use and light gaming well. It is interesting that despite being slim, the handset still fits in a big battery and charges fast with the 45W adapter.
