Tecno L8 Technical specifications

The Tecno L8 is equipped with a 6.75-inch IPS LCD display featuring an HD+ resolution of 720 x 1640 pixels. The screen supports a 20.5:9 aspect ratio, providing a standard viewing area for daily tasks. The device runs on the MediaTek Helio A22 processor, a quad-core chipset clocked at up to 2.0 GHz, paired with 2 GB of RAM. This configuration targets basic performance requirements and entry-level applications.

Storage options include 32 GB of internal memory, expandable via a microSD card slot supporting up to 256 GB. The phone operates on Android 12 (Go edition), which is optimized for devices with limited hardware resources. The battery capacity is 5000 mAh, designed to support extended usage without frequent recharging. Charging is handled through a micro-USB port, with no fast charging capabilities specified.

Camera hardware consists of a dual rear setup: a 13 MP primary sensor accompanied by a VGA depth sensor. The front-facing camera is 5 MP, intended for basic photography and video calls. Sensor array includes an accelerometer, proximity sensor, and ambient light sensor, but lacks a gyroscope or fingerprint scanner. Connectivity options cover 4G LTE, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 5.0, GPS, and a 3.5 mm headphone jack.

The Tecno L8 is designed as an entry-level smartphone with fundamental features suitable for users requiring essential smartphone functions. Its hardware and software choices reflect a focus on affordability and basic usability rather than high-end performance or advanced multimedia capabilities.
