TECNO has officially introduced the POVA Curve 2 5G, expanding its popular POVA lineup. The phone was announced on February 13, 2026, in Hong Kong and will be available in India later this month. The device is also being showcased at Mobile World Congress 2026 (MWC 2026).

The company confirmed that the smartphone will receive two major Android OS upgrades, ensuring longer software support.

Slim Yet Powerful Design

One of the biggest highlights of the POVA Curve 2 5G is its slim profile. The device measures just 7.42mm thick and weighs 195g, despite packing a massive 8000mAh battery, the largest ever in a TECNO phone. It is claimed to be among the slimmest smartphones in its segment with such a large battery.

The phone features a curved AMOLED display and a futuristic design inspired by interstellar spacecraft. It comes in three color options: Melting Silver, Storm Titanium, and Mystic Purple.

For durability, the device carries IP64 dust and water resistance, SGS-certified 1.5m drop protection, and Corning Gorilla Glass 7i. It is also designed to operate in extreme temperatures ranging from -20°C to 60°C.

Massive Battery with Fast Charging

The POVA Curve 2 5G houses an 8000mAh high-density battery, which is 2500mAh larger than its predecessor. It supports 45W fast charging and includes bypass charging technology to reduce heat during gaming or while plugged in.

The battery is TÜV SÜD certified and is engineered to maintain performance for up to six years, according to the company.

Smooth Performance and Display

Powering the device is the MediaTek Dimensity 7100 processor, offering 5G connectivity and stable performance. The phone sports a 144Hz curved AMOLED display for smoother scrolling and enhanced gaming visuals.

Connectivity is improved with dual-signal enhancement chipsets, helping users get stronger cellular and Wi-Fi signals in weak or crowded network areas. The device also supports offline voice, text, and image communication up to 1.5km.

AI Features and Smart Tools

Running on HiOS 16, the smartphone introduces several AI-powered tools. These include AI content summarization, writing assistance, call noise reduction, and automatic photo enhancement.

It also offers productivity features like FlashMemo for capturing on-screen content instantly and Mind Hub to organize saved insights. Region-specific features such as AI-powered Muslim prayer reminders are included as well.

The Ella assistant provides personalized support and natural voice interaction across various tasks.

With its large battery, slim design, and gaming-focused features, the POVA Curve 2 5G continues the POVA series’ identity of delivering power with comfort.
