Tecno’s New Spark Go 5G Phone Brings iPhone 17 Air’s Rumoured Design to Reality
Tecno has launched a new budget phone that uses the same design as the one speculated for the iPhone 17 Air.
Apple’s iPhone 17 Air is all but confirmed, with multiple leaks and rumours revealing a new design that includes a single camera housed inside a capsule-style bar on top of the rear panel. Until Apple announces the phone, this design is as good as anyone’s guess, but Tecno seems already inspired. Its new Spark Go 5G is loosely based on this rumoured design, featuring two camera sensors, instead of one, on a long bar.
