Compared to other phone series from the Tecno Mobile, Pouvoir phones are basically known for their higher battery capacities, thus, the name Pouvoir which means Power. Still, Tecno never neglected attractive design for higher battery capacity because the Pouvoir phones often come with attractive designs and trendy specs.
Therefore, apart from its stronger 6000mAh battery capacity, Tecno Pouvoir 4 also features an attractive design and quad-lens back camera. The phone is also fitted with an ample 7.0-inch drop-notch display; which makes the latest Pouvoir to be more of a phablet than your average size smartphone.
Tecno Pouvoir 4 is available in two variants, and these are LC7 and LC8. Still, both of the variants look identical in every aspect.
Under the hood, however, the base variant of the Tecno Pouvoir 4 or LC7 is powered by the Helio A22 chipset, 3GB of RAM and 32GB internal storage capacity, while the Pro version of the latest phone i.e., LC8, is equipped with a better Helio P22 chipset. This variant also comes in two configurations options of either 4GB/64GB or 6GB/128GB.
And despite that both variants are fitted the same 6000mAh battery capacitie, Tecno Pouvoir 4 Pro is the only one that support 18W fast charging.
The quad-lens back camera of the Pro version also features an higher megapixel lenses. And its front-facing camera also comes with an higher 16MP lens, while that of the Pouvoir 4 is fitted with an 8MP lens
VERDICT: Apart from their bigger displays, both Tecno Pouvoir 4 and Pouvoir 4 Pro also offer trendy features, higher battery capacities, and better processing powers than the Tecno Pouvoir 3. Yet, it's obvious that both variants of the latest Pouvoir feature the same battery capacity and Google Assistance button as the better equipped Tecno Pouvoir 3 Plus. In fact, Tecno Pouvoir 4 Pro is equipped with the Helio P22 chipset and a few other features like the Pouvoir 3 Plus.
Nonetheless, Tecno Pouvoir 4 looks prettier than both Pouvoir 3 and Pouvoir 3 Plus.
The official price of the Tecno Pouvoir 4 is 55,000 Naira (Ksh.14,500 in kenya and in GHs.806 Ghana), while the price of the Tecno Pouvoir 4 Pro version is 66,390 Naira (Ksh.17,000 & GHs. 985 ).
Tecno Pouvoir 4 Design:
Design-wise, Tecno Pouvoir 4 has nothing in common with the Tecno Pouvoir 3, though, the latest phone features Google Assistance button and similar notched display like the better equipped Pouvoir 3 Plus. Yet, the latest Pouvoir look more appealing than both of the earlier phones.
For instance, the bigger drop-notch display of the Pouvoir 4 has slimmer bezels and higher screen to body ratio of 90.55%. It also features a distinct 20.5:9 aspect ratio which makes the bigger phone to be slightly narrow, thereby preventing it from appearing bigger or cumbersome.
The frame of the Tecno Pouvoir 4 is made of plastic and its back is adorned with the gradient colours. The back of the Pouvoir 4 is mounted with a trendy looking rectangular-shaped camera module which houses the vertically arranged quad-camera of the phone.
And while the four back cameras are found on the right side of the module, quad-flash is found on the right side. The latest phone's fingerprint reader is placed at the usual spot, i.e. at the top centre back.
Except for the presence of the Google Assistant button, which is located on the left edge of the phone, the arrangements and positions of buttons and ports, on the Pouvoir 4, are similar to those of other recent smartphones from the Tecno Mobile.
Meanwhile, both variants of the Tecno Pouvoir 4 weigh 198g and have the same 174.9x79.6x9.2mm dimensions. But while the base model comes in three colour options of Cosmic Shine, Ice Jadeite and Fascinating Purple, the Pro version is available in Misty Grey, Ice Jadeite and Fascinating Purple.
Ample 7.0-inch HD+ Display:
The 7.0-inch, Drop-notch display of the Tecno Pouvoir 4 is fitted with an IPS-LCD panel, and features an HD+ resolution of 1640x720; which makes this screen to have a pixel density of 255ppi.
It's obvious that the pixel density of the latest phone's display is lower than than that of the earlier model. And this has to do with the fact that the latest Pouvoir packed the same 720p pixels as the earlier models, in spite of its bigger 7.0-inch display. In other words, Tecno Pouvoir 4 display is slightly less sharper, compared to those of the Pouvoir 3 and Pouvoir 3 Plus.
MediaTek Helio P22 Vs Helio A22:
Both Tecno Pouvoir 4 and Pouvoir 4 Pro are powered by the MediaTek chipsets. Yet, each of them is equipped with different processing powers. In other words, Tecno Pouvoir 4 is powered by the Helio A22 (MT6761); a quad-core cpu with the maximum processing speed of 2.0GHz,
While Pouvoir 4 Pro, on the other hand, is powered by the slightly powerful Helio P22 (MT6762) chipset, which is an octa-core processor, but also has the same 2.0GHz maximum clock speed as the Helio A22.
And this means that the Pro version of the latest Pouvoir phone is equipped with same processor as the earlier Tecno Pouvoir 3 Plus. It also means that the Tecno Pouvoir 4 (LC7) comes with a better processor than the Pouvoir 3; which was equipped with the MT6739 chipset. Tecno Pouvoir 4 also offers higher RAM than the earlier model.
And concerning their Graphics Processing Unit (GPU), both of the Tecno Pouvoir 4 and Pouvoir 4 Pro are still equipped with the same PowerVR GE8320, despite their different processing powers.
Meanwhile both variants of the Tecno Pouvoir 4 are running on the Android 10 (Q) Operating System (OS) alongside Tecno HiOS 6. And while the base variant i.e, Pouvoir 4 features 3GB of RAM and 32GB internal storage, Tecno Pouvoir 4 Pro comes in two options of either 4GB of RAM with 64GB internal storage or 6GB of RAM with 128GB internal storage. Still, the internal storage capacities of both variants can be expanded, via microSD card, up to 256GB.
Pouvoir 4 Pro Has Better Front And Back Cameras:
The quad back camera of the Tecno Pouvoir 4 and that of the Pouvoir 4 Pro look identical, they also seem to have the same number of megapixels. But the Primary or Main camera of Pouvoir 4 Pro is equipped with higher megapixels lens, in addition, the back camera set-up of the two phones is slightly different.
In details, the quad back camera of the Pouvoir 4 Pro is made up 16MP Main lens, 5MP Ultra-Wide lens, 2MP Macro lens and a QVGA lens, while that of the Pouvoir 4 comprises of 13MP Main lens, 2MP Depth Sensing lens, 2MP Macro lens and a QVGA lens.
Apart from having higher megapixels back camera, the Pro version of the latest Pouvoir also comes with 16MP front camera, while the base variant features an 8MP front camera.
Nonetheless, both phones quad-back camera are capable of shooting 1080p videos at 30fps (frame per second), while their front-facing cameras are capable of shooting 720p videos at 30fps.
Sufficient Battery Life:
Each of them comes with a 6000mAh battery; which guarantees to last for more than a couple of days on a single charge and with normal usage. And like i said earlier, this is the same battery capacity that came with the Tecno Pouvoir 3 Plus.
Therefore, talking about the battery life, which is the essence of the Pouvoir phones, Pouvoir 3 Plus will still last a little longer than the Pouvoir 4 and Pouvoir 4 Pro, considering the earlier phone's smaller screen and Amoled panel.
And despite the fact that only the Pouvoir 4 Pro support 18W fast charging, both variants of the latest Pouvoir comes with 10W chargers.
