Tecno Pova 6 Neo

Battery life is the headline here. A 7000 mAh cell sits inside the Pova 6 Neo, paired with 33W wired charging, so it's built for people who don't want to think about a power bank. Running the show is a Mediatek Helio G99 Ultimate on 6nm, backed by 8GB RAM and 256GB storage, which is a solid amount of space for this price bracket. The 6.78-inch IPS LCD runs at 120Hz with 580 nits brightness, giving smoother scrolling than you'd expect from a budget phone.

On the camera side there's a single 50MP wide rear shooter with PDAF, plus an 8MP front camera for calls and selfies. Tecno Pova 6 Neo price in Malaysia starts from RM599, which puts it in direct competition with other big-battery budget phones.

It also comes with IP53 splash resistance and stereo speakers with Hi-Res audio support, extras that aren't always guaranteed at this price. Android 14 with HIOS 14 runs the software side, and it's available in Starry Silver, Speed Black and Comet Green.
