Slim, Stylish, and Sparkling: Tecno Prepares Kenyan Debut

Tecno Mobile has confirmed the release of its latest smart phone, the Tecno Spark Slim that will be released in Kenya in the next few weeks. It was announced on Monday, November 3, and it adds to the already expanding list of stylish and high-performance mobile devices the company offers.

The main distinctive feature of Tecno Spark Slim is its ultra thin design which is only 5.93mm thick. This has seen it become one of the thinnest smartphones in the market today. Although Tecno is skinny, it states that the phone does not compromise on battery capacity or its overall performance- a major issue that most ultra-thin phone companies have had.

The Spark Slim, which was originally presented in an earlier model at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) this year, in the form of a concept model, received quite a bit of attention with its sleek design and the functionality it offers. The design indicates that Tecno is continuing to be innovative, and it gives the user a smooth, contemporary appearance without the cost to usability.

The smartphone is curved in the display department making it look upscale as well as increasing the user experience. The portability is made possible by its lightweight body, which makes it easily portable and can easily fit into a pocket and therefore suitable to any person who cares about both portability and performance. Tecno has also laid much emphasis on making sure that the Spark slim is able to suit the lifestyle of the young and active customers who like stylish but practical technology.

Besides its exceptional physical design, Tecno has unveiled a very exciting partnership between the Spark Slim and African Cup of Nations (AFCON). The Spark Slim will be the official phone of the 2025 and 2027 AFCON tourism strengthening the position of Tecno in the African market. This partnership is an indication of the strong relationship that the brand has with consumers in Africa and its continued efforts to sponsor key cultural and sport activities in the continent.

To this end, in this alliance, Tecno announced that the Spark Slim will also be an AFCON themed phone, which will give fans a special mobile experience in relation to the highly sought after football tournament. Though the company has not announced the complete details, these features will make the device all the more attractive to football fans since they will allow them to engage more in the events.

Tecno also indicated that the Spark Slim will be made freely available in the retail outlets in Kenya which will be the first store to gain access in Africa. As a way of commemorating the launch, the company has initiated a lucrative pre-order program via Tecno Official Store. Beginning Monday, early adopters will be able to pre-order their Spark Slim units and receive special sales perks as well as 20,000mAh power bank and Ksh2,000 cash back on every pre-order.

Its classy outlook, reputation with a spectacular construction, and its close association with one of the largest sporting events in the continent, the Tecno Spark Slim is currently proving to be one of the most hyped smartphone launches of 2015. Its stylishness, performance and affordability can put it as a big hit among the Kenyan consumers and ultimately enhance the brand of Tecno as one of the biggest smartphones brands in Africa.
