Tecno launches Spark 9 Pro Sport Edition

Earlier this year, the Tecno Spark 9 Pro was introduced in a variety of colours. Now, Tecno has joined forces with Designworks, the BMW Group's design innovation division, to produce a limited-edition model of the phone known as the Spark 9 Pro Sport Edition.

For this limited edition, Designworks was tasked with selecting the materials, colours, and finish. The "icy crystal talisman"-inspired pattern combines crystalline blue and pristine white sections and is sprinkled with additional triangles to maintain the overall concept. The two elliptical camera islands are reminiscent of the BMW emblem, but this is more of an homage than a replica.

The Spark 9 Pro Sport Edition is designed for youthful customers who value luxury, particularly when it comes to automobiles. Due to the intensely intimate connection that users have with their cellphones, the design team compared smartphones to automobiles.

“Working together with a company like Tecno is inspiring, as it gives us the opportunity to focus on another user experience – the smartphone. While there is a difference in scale, something smartphones and cars have in common is that they are extremely personal and are relied on daily by their users, and they are also a means of personal expression,” said Andre De Salis, Creative Director, Industrial Design at Designworks.

The phone is identical to the standard Spark 9 Pro on the outside. This includes a 6.6" IPS LCD (FHD+), an Helio G85 CPU (running Android 12/HIOS 8.6), 4GB of RAM, 128GB of expandable storage, a 50MP primary camera, a 32MP selfie camera, a 5,000mAh battery, and 18W charging.

There are some markets in Africa, Latin America, and the Middle East where you may purchase the Tecno Spark 9 Pro Sport Edition. Each region will receive specific announcements regarding the launch date and cost.
