Tecno R5

Tecno R5 is one of the smaller devices from Tecno mobile to run Android KitKat. Measuring 119.5 mm tall and 8.5 mm thick, this is a device that will be very comfortable for use by most people. The handset is characterized by a sharp 4-inch IPS display and Tecno’s latest design inspiration. There is a generous amount of onboard storage which is a rarity in this price range. With this package, you get a device that could easily serve as a primary communicator without feeling overwhelmed by extra size or mediocre onboard storage.

Tecno R5 is the best alternative to the H6 if looking for a more compact device. With the reduction in size, a sharper display was also achieved. Therefore you get a smoother experience when catching up on Candy Crush Saga or ebooking. With a Quad-core processor, 8GB of internal storage and a relatively ample amount of RAM, Android KitKat performs quite smoothly on the Tecno R5. Out of the 8GB of internal storage, about 3GB is taken up by the OS therefore 5GB is availed to you out of the box. This can be extended to 32GB via microSD.
Camera performance is one of the main highlights of Tecno R5. This is hardly surprising since the device is designed to win over the hearts of teenagers and young adults. 5MP and 2MP cameras are provided at the back and front side of the device respectively. The primary camera features an LED flash and performance is passable. You have the standard array of KitKat enhancements such as geotagging and a self-timer – ensuring you are sufficiently prepared when the camera shutter clicks. There is a variety of third-party apps such as Camera360 and HDR camera, which can be installed onto the Tecno R5 bringing new features and enhancements onboard.
Coming from Tecno H3, the apparent issue we have with this device is its battery capacity. The 1800mAh battery issued to the R5 is hardly enough to handle its power and dual SIM characteristics. The Quad-core processor and busy nature of Android are granted to take a toll on its battery life. With the growing variety of powerbanks, making the right choice goes a long way in ensuring your handset remains powered while on the move.
