"That 5.75mm prototype generated plenty of buzz, but it also left many of us wondering whether such an extreme design could ever make it to production without major compromises. Fast forward to IFA 2025, and TECNO has delivered not one but two ultra-slim smartphones that prove thin doesn't have to mean fragile or underpowered."
"The TECNO Spark Slim and TECNO Pova Slim 5G measure just 5.93mm and 5.95mm, respectively, making them the world's thinnest smartphones with 3D-curved AMOLED displays. While slightly thicker than the original concept, these production models represent thoughtful engineering decisions that prioritize real-world durability over chasing absolute minimum thickness. TECNO re-engineered eight core components, including a custom 0.45mm Type-C connector inspired by foldable devices, and arranged them using proprietary Honeycomb space stacking technology for 12% better internal space utilization."
"The breakthrough in structural engineering becomes apparent when you consider the materials involved. The aerospace-grade fiberglass back cover measures just 0.36mm thick yet delivers 300% greater strength and 200% greater toughness than standard composite plates. Combined with Corning Gorilla Glass 7i protection, IP64 water and dust resistance, and military-grade shock certification, these phones prove that ultra-thin design can coexist with genuine durability rather than forcing users to choose between style and substance."
TECNO released two ultra-slim smartphones, the Spark Slim and Pova Slim 5G, measuring 5.93mm and 5.95mm with 3D-curved AMOLED displays. Eight core components were re-engineered, including a custom 0.45mm Type-C connector, and proprietary Honeycomb space stacking improved internal space utilization by 12%. An aerospace-grade fiberglass back cover (0.36mm) delivers 300% greater strength and 200% greater toughness and pairs with Corning Gorilla Glass 7i, IP64 ingress protection, and military-grade shock certification. A 5160mAh, 4.04mm lithium cobalt oxide battery offers intelligent health algorithms retaining 80% capacity after 2000 cycles, 45W charging, and advanced 0.3mm vapor-chamber thermal management.
