The Tecno Spark (also known as Tecno K7) is a 5.5-inch display device in a metal unibody which, thanks to its Antenna band placement, looks a lot like the iPhone 7. At least, viewing the device from the back.
Looks aside, the device which ships with the latest Android version (Nougat) features a 1.3GHz Octa-core MediaTek CPU and about 2GB of RAM for multitasking.
For storing files and multimedia, the Tecno Spark has just 16GB of onboard storage which can be extended by a microSD card (up to 32GB).
The cameras on the device are also modest. With the front facing shooter having around 5 million pixels accompanied by its dedicated flash light for low light conditions, taking selfies should be effortless. The rear camera is a 13MP shooter also accompanied by a LED flash.
