Tecno Pova 5 Pro

OhoPrice editorial review

Our Take: The Tecno Pova 5 Pro at Rs 23,799 is the most powerful phone in this batch by a significant margin. The Dimensity 6080, built on a modern 6 nm process, delivers performance that rivals phones costing twice as much — the Mali-G57 MC2 GPU handles demanding games at high settings, and the 6 nm fabrication ensures the chip runs cool and power-efficient. At 402 PPI, the 6.68-inch Full HD+ display produces text sharp enough that individual pixels are nearly invisible at normal viewing distances, and the 120 Hz refresh rate makes animations feel buttery smooth. With 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB of storage, this phone offers flagship-level configuration — you have room for hundreds of apps and thousands of photos without ever managing files. The 50 MP main camera with PDAF captures detailed, accurately coloured photos, and the 16 MP selfie camera is above average for video calls. The 5000 mAh battery provides standard all-day endurance, though the 6 nm chip's efficiency means it often stretches into a second day with lighter use. This phone is ideal for performance enthusiasts who want flagship-level speed at a budget price. The Villaon V50s at Rs 21,399 saves you Rs 2,400 but cannot compete on any specification. The Pova 5 Pro's Dimensity 6080 on a 6 nm process dramatically outperforms the Villaon's unnamed chip in both speed and efficiency. The Tecno's 120 Hz Full HD display is significantly sharper and smoother than the Villaon's unspecified panel. With 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB of storage, the Pova 5 Pro offers four times the Villaon's storage and double its base RAM. The 50 MP camera also captures far more detail than the Villaon's 8 MP unit. For buyers who want the most powerful phone under Rs 24,000, the Tecno Pova 5 Pro is unmatched in this batch; the Villaon satisfies those who need basic phone functions and want to save every possible rupee.
