Market Landscape
Priced at ₹6,999, Spark Go 2 undercuts the Samsung Galaxy A05s (₹8,999) and Redmi A3 (₹7,499),
while offering smoother display and IP64 build not matched by Infinix Smart X1 (~₹6,490). In a ₹5k–₹10k segment flooded with lookalikes, Spark Go 2 stands out with its premium finishes.
Flipkart may offer bank cashback or bundled data. Unofficial retailer sources expect early stock to sell out in hours. Considering past Spark Go models, expect modest but lasting demand among first-time smartphone buyers.
“With 120 Hz at sub‑₹7 k, TECNO is raising the floor for smoothness in this segment,” says Ritu Sharma, display-tech analyst at TechInsights India.
TECNO has steadily grown in India - from feature phones to budget Android powerhouses. The Spark Go line began in 2021, and this iteration solidifies its value-driven reputation.
