    Unboxing: TECNO Spark 5 — A pack of Beauty, Comfort & Status

    The TECNO Spark 5 is a beautiful device from TECNO Ghana and it’s impressive both to hold, marvel at and to use.

    We recently unboxed the device and we will like to share the photos from the unboxing as well as thoughts on the device.

    First, let’s look at the specs of the Spark 5.

    Now to the unboxing.

    When you get the TECNO Spark 5, you are greeted with this very nice packaging. The packaging colours speaks to the impressive nature of the device, which we will see later on.

    Wow before we look at individual components, let’s talk about everything in the box once you bring the components out.

    Inside the box of the TECNO Spark 5, you get:

    • The TECNO Spark 5 Phone
    • A 13 month warrancy Card
    • A beautifully designed Silicon case
    • A rectangular head sim ejector
    • A Power Adaptar
    • A micro USB cable and
    • A 3.5mm earpiece

    Our review copy from TECNO Ghana was in the Ice Jadeite colour, as you can see above.

    The Device itself has a premium touch to it. The gradient colour makes it instantly recognisable and the vertically aligned quad-camera setup is appealing.

    And about that fingerprint sensor, I love that it is at the rear. That way, by the time you get the device off the table or from your pocket, it is already unlocked.

    At the bottom of the phone, there is the speaker grille, the USB port, the microphone and the much loved 3.5mm headphone jack. You don’t have to spend more for wireless accessories.

    One of the things I love about the Spark 5’s design can be seen at the right side of the phone. Just below the volume buttons is the power button which has a distinctively orange colour.

    I would like to highlight on the silicon case a bit. It has a very distinctive design pattern, that gives the device a very “tech feel”. Oh yeah, TECNO.

    Holding the Spark 5 felt natural. It was easy to hold and use the device in one hand. The power button and the volume keys were also very reachable.

    If you are looking at getting a new phone or upgrading your older model device, the TECNO Spark 5 is just what you need to consider.

    Spark 5 is selling at GHS 719 at all TECNO accredited merchants.

  • Unboxing the Mi Band 2 Wearable Activity Tracker by Xiaomi

    Unboxing the Mi Band 2 Wearable Activity Tracker by Xiaomi

    I have always been a fan of Xiaomi products and I look at getting their Mi Note 2 pretty soon. Today, however, I have with me the Mi Band 2 and even though I am yet to “really use” it, I feel I should just drop a background on what it is and what it does as well as some photos of the Unboxing. So here you go.

    The Mi Band 2

    The Mi Band 2 is what I would call an “activity tracker” from Xiaomi. Basically, it tracks your latest fitness & sleep tracker. Its body is made from thermoplastic elastomer and aluminum alloy which means that it is not harmful to the skin even for long hours and days.

    So here are the images from the Unboxing of the Mi Band 2.
