Tecno Pova Curve Overview

Design and Display

Tecno gave the Pova Curve 5G a bold, futuristic design with a curved AMOLED screen that wraps at a 55° angle. It’s slim at 7.45mm and light at 177g, which makes it feel premium and easy to hold. The screen measures 6.78 inches and offers a Full HD+ resolution that looks crisp and vibrant.

It refreshes at 144Hz, so everything from scrolling to gaming feels super smooth. Tecno has managed an impressive 93.8% screen-to-body ratio, and Gorilla Glass 5 protects the front for better durability. The phone is also rated IP64, so it can handle dust and splashes.

Performance and Battery

Inside, the Pova Curve 5G runs on the powerful MediaTek Dimensity 7300 Ultimate chipset, built on the efficient 4nm process, which helps it stay cool and fast. It comes with 6GB or 8GB of RAM, and both models have 128GB of UFS 2.2 storage. You can even turn extra storage into virtual RAM, expanding it up to 16GB, which really boosts multitasking.

The phone uses Android 15 with HIOS 15 and Tecno promises an upgrade to Android 16 which is great news for long-term use. The battery is a solid 5,500mAh and supports 45W wired charging. It goes from 0 to 50% in 15 minutes, and fully charges in just 45 minutes, which is seriously quick.
