Kenyan tech enthusiasts, get ready for an upgrade. TECNO's popular Spark series is set to receive an update with the new Spark 4 Series launching in Kenya from this weekend.
According to reports, the new line-up is expected to feature either 2 or 3 phones, with the Spark 4 Air already making its debut in some markets. This suggests that there may be three devices in the new series: the Spark 4 Pro, Spark 4, and Spark 4 Air.
For comparison, the Spark 3 Series had only two devices: the Spark 3 PRO and the TECNO Spark 3, a 3G only variant. The presence of the Spark 4 Air in the new series points to the possibility of three variants this time around.
As for pricing, all variants of the new phone are expected to retail below KES. 14,000, with the Spark 4 Pro likely to be priced at 13,500 and the Spark 4 Air at either just above 10,000 or just below.
