Tecno Boom J7 Technical Specifications

Display

Display Size: 5.0 inches

Display Type: IPS capacitive

Screen Resolution: 1280 x 720 Pixels

Screen Resolution Density: 294 ppi

Screen Protection: None

The Tecno Boom J7 boasts of a display profile that is worth a second and may be a third look. We are talking of a 5.0-inches IPS capacitive display with a 1280 x 720 Pixels resolution. The 5.0 Inches display does sit pretty on the Tecno Boom J7, however, the secondary display feature that I truly adore is the 720p HD resolution.

No so long ago, 720p display were a preserve of the mid-rangers but times have now changed and the feature has started trickling down to budget devices. A 720p display is at least steps away from the 1080p Full HD display that everyone desires.

Design

Frame Dimensions: 143mm × 71.9mm × 8.93 mm

The Tecno Boom J7 is an excellent choice for anyone who appreciates an excellent Smartphone design. The Boom J7 boasts of a minimalistic yet exquisite design. The perfect blend of the two features, gives the smartphone a premium look and feel.

The Boom J7 additionally, features a curved back panel that enhances the ergonomics of the device. There is also the notification light that encircles the Home button. At the rear side of the Boom J7 is the speaker.

Most would have expected Tecno Mobile to include some stereo speakers on the devices to enhance the audio experience. But, unfortunately, you just have one external speaker. However, Tecno includes some sleek metalicious in-ear earphones to provide some smooth stereo output.

The under the hood specs of the Tecno Boom J7 are typical of what you will get from a Tecno Mobile device in its price range.

The Boom J7 is one of the latest Tecno Mobile smartphones and it therefore, comes as a surprise that it runs Android 4.4 KitKat.

Most would have expected that Android 5.0 Lollipop would have made its debut on a Tecno device through the Boom J7. All in all, Kitkat is still the most popular version of Android and the OS doesn’t look that bad on the Tecno Boom J7.

Verdict

The Tecno Boom J7 is the first smartphone from Tecno Mobile for buyers in pursuit of high-fidelity sound playback.

This is a market whose needs were largely fulfilled by high-end devices that only a fraction of buyers in a developing Smartphone market such as Kenya can afford.

It is commendable that Tecno Mobile is keeping the innovative spirit alive through the introduction of Smartphones that most can afford to purchase.

The Tecno Boom J7 may not be the best Smartphone for an Audiophile, but it does a good job of fulfilling the Audio Quest for buyers on a budget.
