A 6500mAh battery, military-grade toughness and smart AI features, at a time when entry-level 5G is getting more expensive
TECNO today launched the SPARK 50s 5G in India, starting at Rs.19,999. Rising memory prices have been pushing entry-level 5G phones further out of reach, and SPARK 50s 5G is TECNO’s answer to that. It brings dependable 5G, a fresh new look and a battery that lasts all day to the Rs.20K segment, for the everyday dreamers who keep India moving.
Speaking
on the launch, Mr. Arijeet Talapatra, CEO, TECNO Mobile India, said, “We’ve been watching the
industry change, and it’s hitting the smartphone market hard, with rising
memory costs pushing prices up and 5G phones feeling it the most. In the end
it’s the customer who ends up paying more or waiting longer, for a phone they
need every single day. That’s where we come in. With the TECNO SPARK 50s 5G, we
wanted to show that you don’t have to pay more to get a phone that holds a
strong signal in a crowded market, survives a rough day and lasts till night.
This is TECNO’s most aggressive price for 5G, and we’re only getting
started."
Staying connected is where the phone works hardest. 4×4 MIMO technology
delivers up to 82%* faster downloads, UPI payments up to 2X* faster (T&C
apply) with UPS 3.0, even in places where networks usually struggle, like busy
markets, crowded stations and basements. And when the network drops altogether,
FreeLink lets you make calls, send messages and share images with people up
to 1.5 km* (T&C apply) away in obstacle-free conditions (lab
tested), which can be a real help in factories, farms, warehouses and
construction sites.
The TECNO SPARK 50s 5G comes in two new colours, Burgundy Red, a deep and
rich shade with a confident, premium feel and Breeze Blue, a light and airy
blue with a soft shimmer. It is built to take daily life in its stride as
well, with IP64 Pro dust and splash protection and MIL-STD-810H
certification to see it through sudden rain, dusty roads and the occasional
slip from a pocket or desk.
Powering all of this is a 6500mAh battery that is designed to last
through a full day of work, entertainment and calls, with 45W fast charging for
when you need a quick top-up. On the software side, AI Noise Cancellation keeps
calls clear on regular, WhatsApp and conference calls, Gemini helps with
answers, writing and planning, and Circle to Search lets you look up anything
on your screen instantly. A 120Hz display keeps scrolling, videos and games
smooth.
TECNO SPARK 50s 5G is priced at Rs.19,999 for the 6GB + 128GB variant and
Rs. 22,999 for the 8GB + 128GB variant. It will be available from October 20,
2026, exclusively through offline retail stores across India.
