In the Tecno range of phones, the Spark series is in the lower middle. The lowest in the range is the Pop series. The latest in this series is the Pop 7 and Pop 7 Pro. The prices of these phones usually range from $95 to $120
Next in the range is the Spark series. After the Spark is the Pova series. The Pova is not very common in Zimbabwe but it is available. Prices are generally in the same range as the Spark
Then comes Camon series. While they are considered medium rang phones, for the average Zimbabwean phone buyer, the Camon range is premium. It is therefore not as common as the Pops and the Sparks. You will find phones from $200 all the way to $340.
At the top, flagship if you will, is the Tecno Phantom brand. The pricing here starts at about $350 going up.
