Tecno Unveils POVA 7 Series with AI-Powered Features and Bold Gaming Focus

Tecno has just taken the wraps off its latest POVA 7 series, and it's clear the brand is doubling down on gamers. The new lineup includes five smartphones: POVA 7 Ultra 5G, POVA 7 Pro 5G, POVA 7 5G, POVA Curve 5G, and a 4G-only variant, the POVA 7. Sitting at the top of the range is the POVA 7 Ultra 5G, a device that’s designed to handle intensive gaming sessions without breaking a sweat.

One of the standout features across the lineup is the generous battery capacity. The POVA 7 Ultra 5G packs a massive 6000mAh battery, paired with 70W wired fast charging and 30W wireless charging—a combo that’s rarely seen at this price point. Tecno is clearly taking a bold swing here, especially with wireless charging support across its other 5G models as well.

Design-wise, the phones sport what Tecno calls an “Interstellar Spacelip” look. That translates into a mix of triangular patterns, clean lines, and a sleek, minimal feel. Meanwhile, the POVA Curve 5G breaks new ground for the brand as its first phone with a curved display—a move that’s likely to appeal to both gamers and visual media enthusiasts.

Under the hood, the POVA 7 Ultra 5G runs on the MediaTek Dimensity 8350 Ultimate AI chipset, paired with a 6.78-inch 1.5K AMOLED display that supports a 144Hz refresh rate and an impressive 4500 nits peak brightness. For gamers, Tecno promises smooth 120FPS gameplay on titles like PUBG, thanks to a 12-layer cooling system and a sizable 5300mm² vapor chamber to keep things from overheating.

The series ships with HiOS 15, Tecno’s latest custom Android skin. It offers a more personalized experience with customizable themes, icons, and wallpapers—and refreshingly, it skips the usual bloatware. A Mini-LED status light is also included for real-time notifications.

On the software side, AI plays a starring role. The series introduces the AI Anywhere Portal, featuring “Ask Ella,” a smart assistant capable of handling tasks like summaries, schedules, and visual queries. Other AI tricks include real-time translation, noise cancellation during calls, and an AI writing assistant for proofreading and content creation. There's also a smart search feature that recognizes objects in images, and an upgraded AI Studio tool for photo editing.

Tecno hasn’t revealed pricing yet, but global availability is slated for June 2025. In India, the POVA Curve 5G is already on shelves, while the rest of the series is set to roll out across Southeast Asia, the Middle East, South Asia, and parts of Latin America.

Nothing Phone 3 Set for July 1 Launch, Major Design Shift Sparks Buzz

Image
The next chapter in Nothing’s smartphone journey is almost here. The London-based tech company, led by Carl Pei, has announced that the Nothing Phone 3 will officially launch on July 1 in India and other global markets. And while the official debut is still a few weeks away, a fresh teaser has already stirred up conversation — and controversy — among fans. In a recent post on X (formerly Twitter), the company offered a sneak peek at the Phone 3's rear design with the phrase “ultra-precise engineering.” The teaser shows a partial view of the back panel — featuring a new dual-tone finish and some distinct etchings. But here’s the real shocker: the iconic Glyph interface is gone. Yes, you read that right. Nothing is moving away from the glowing LED pattern that made its phones instantly recognizable. This design change has caught many off guard, considering the Glyph lights had become a signature feature since the brand’s debut. For those unfamiliar, the Glyph interface was more than ...

Vivo Prepping Sleek New Y-Series Phone for India, May Feature Curved AMOLED Display Under ₹15,000

After rolling out the Vivo Y19 5G in India just last month, the company seems to be quietly working on another addition to its Y-series lineup. While the official name hasn’t been confirmed yet, early leaks hint at a new budget-friendly phone that could make a splash—especially with a curved AMOLED display, a feature that’s still pretty rare in this price range. According to a report from 91mobiles, which cites unnamed industry insiders, Vivo is planning to introduce a new Y-series smartphone that may claim the title of the slimmest device with a 3D curved AMOLED screen under ₹15,000. If that turns out to be true, it’s a bold move that could give the brand an edge in India’s increasingly competitive mid-range segment. A few design details have started to emerge. The phone is rumored to come in three colours: festive gold, freestyle white, and nebula purple. The freestyle white version, interestingly, might sport a distinctive rear panel pattern. The device is also tipped to be just 7.4...
