Tecno Pova Curve 5G Price in Kenya
The Tecno Pova Curve 5G with 8GB RAM and 256GB storage costs KSh 59,999 at Avechi. It is in stock with a 1-year warranty, and you can choose delivery or pick-up from our Nairobi shop.
Tecno announced the Pova Curve 5G at the end of May 2025. Its main selling point is a slim 7.5mm body that still fits a 5,500mAh battery and a 144Hz AMOLED screen. It suits buyers who want a light, good-looking 5G phone and do not need a top gaming chip. This is the original Pova Curve, not the newer Pova Curve 2.

Tecno Pova Curve 5G vs Infinix Note 60 Pro 5G
| Tecno Pova Curve 5G (2025) | Infinix Note 60 Pro 5G (2026) | |
|---|---|---|
| Processor | Dimensity 7300 Ultimate | Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 |
| Screen | 6.78″ FHD+ AMOLED, 144Hz | 6.78″ 1.5K AMOLED, 144Hz |
| Rear cameras | 64MP main, no ultra-wide | 50MP main with OIS, 8MP ultra-wide |
| Battery / charging | 5,500mAh / 45W | 6,500mAh (global) / 90W, 30W wireless |
| Thickness / weight | 7.5mm / 188.5g | 7.4mm / about 202g |
| Avechi price (8GB/256GB) | KSh 59,999 | KSh 46,299 |
Verdict: On paper the newer Note 60 Pro gives more: a bigger battery, faster and wireless charging, an ultra-wide lens and OIS, for KSh 13,700 less. The Pova Curve’s main strength is its lighter body, and its 64MP main camera has a larger sensor. Choose it if a lighter phone matters most to you.

- Tecno Camon 50 Pro (8GB/256GB, KSh 42,999): a 3x telephoto camera and IP68/IP69K, though 4G only.
- Tecno Camon 50 Ultra 5G (8GB/512GB, KSh 58,599): a 2026 Tecno with double the storage for a similar price.
- Motorola Edge 60 Fusion (12GB/256GB, KSh 36,499): a 5G phone with a bright pOLED screen and more RAM for far less.
