The Indian variant of the model arrives with similar specifications as its global counterpart. It comes with an octa-core Unisoc chipset and a 5,000mAh battery with 10W wired charging. The handset is equipped with a dual flash unit on the front. The entry-level smartphone will be available for sale in the country later this month in a single RAM and storage configuration.
Offered in Gravity Black and Mystery White colour options, the Tecno Pop 8 is available in India in a single configuration of 4GB RAM + 64GB onboard storage. The model is priced at Rs. 6,499 and will be available for purchase starting at 12pm IST on January 9, exclusively through Amazon. The company stated that the phone will be available at a special launch price of Rs. 5,999 for a limited period. This special price is inclusive of bank offers.
The Indian variant of the Tecno Pop 8 sports a 6.56-inch HD+ (1,612 x 720 pixels) Dot-In display with a refresh rate of 90Hz and an aspect ratio of 20:9. The phone also comes with the Dynamic Port feature, which is sort of similar to Apple’s Dynamic Island that provides quick notifications. The front panel comes with a Panda Glass protection.
