Hi guys, today's post is as the header says, about the Tecno W5 Lite, Tecno actually launched the W5 earlier. Recently smartphone brands are known to launch devices with a little upgrade form the immediate predecessor like the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 plus the Gionee M6 and M6 plus , some others go for a little "downgrade" if you like to call it that. Where the device has less features or some missing features that comes with the predecessor, in the case of an upgrade it's called 'plus', but in a downgrade 'mini' or Lite as in the case of the Tecno W5 Lite.

So we expect a little lesser from the Tecno W5 Lite. The key features that makes this tecno device a Lite version are these ;

The 4G LTE in the W5 is absent.
Finger print sensor was removed.
Secondary camera was dropped from 5MP to 2MP. That's basically all.

Light sensor...is it led notification light ?

So what's now the essence,,It's just a low end device sef

Thunder go still fire tecno for all these 1gb ram phones

1gb ram...? I still prefer L8+

1gb ram...? I still prefer L8+.

The rate at which tecno and infinix are releasing the phones is similar to the rate at which solomon was taking in ladies.

Now speaking of Bro. Solomon will he go to heaven or hell given the fact that he had 700 wives and 300 CONCUBINES!

Akaewu:

No
The led notification light is not a sensor.

No be everybody be heavy user, some people just want a decent phone with a couple new features. It's Entry level for a reason.

Yea you are right.. But still from today's smartphone technology, 1GB RAM is below par.

seghordy:

It would have been better if it had a 2GB ram

Chudichu:

Yea you are right.. But still from today's smartphone technology, 1GB RAM is below par.

I have a 1 GB RAM Phone and it works perfect with zero lag.
I don't install apps that I don't use every other day.
I don't play games on smartphones.
My phone works flawlessly.
So 1GB RAM isn't a deal breaker for the intended market segment.

Someone should compare L8 plus and Camon C7

Thanks for your specs and reviews

Baba RAM cost money.
Why increase production cost on a phone that is targeted at moderate users by adding a feature they don't need? Doesn't make sense.

Yea, it just slipped under the radar with no fanfare. I guess the phantom 6 and 6+ took the spotlight away from it.
I just looked at spec sheet, and I liked what I saw.
