Design & Display
Tecno F2 is built almost exactly like the F1, which means a plastic body with slight curves at the edges and back. The bezels here are also prominent here but it shouldn't prove much of an issue.The display FWVGA display is also 5.0 inch in size with same resolution (854x480 pixels) that should perform just fine when consuming media. Tecno F2 comes in four colours as well; Midnight Black, Champagne Gold, Dark Blue, City Blue
Camera, Performance & Storage
Tecno F2 also sports a 5-megapixel rear camera that is backed with a dual LED flash which should take fairly good photos in virtually every lighting condition. A 2-megapixel sensor and a flash sits above the display upfront, which should enable you make video calls and take selfies even in dark areas.The F2 has Android Oreo 8.0 (Go edition) pre-installed, and relies on a quad-core processor, clocked at 1.3GHz to keep it running. Backed by a slightly better 1GB of RAM, the F2 should perform fairly when it comes to multitasking. You get 8GB of internal storage which can be bolstered by up to 32GB microSD .
Battery & Other features
Tecno F2 also relies on a 2,000mAh battery for juice which should last you a day if you are not a heavy user. The device is not 4G LTE enabled but it is still a good bargain for the price.Other connectivity features on the Tecno F2 are a micro USB port, Bluetooth v4.0 and Wi-fi 802.11/b/g/n.
