Budget smartphones are no longer just about “good enough.” With Realme’s Note 70 and TECNO’s Spark 40 now on shelves, buyers are looking for a device that feels smarter, faster, and tougher. On that score, Spark 40 takes the lead offering the kind of features that make everyday use genuinely better.
Endurance or Speed: Which Matters More?
Realme Note 70 packs a 6300mAh battery great for all-day use but it only supports 15W charging and takes a bit to fully charge. Spark 40, in comparison, has a 5200mAh battery with 45W Super Charge. Slightly smaller, yes, but it recharges blazingly fast. In real life, that’s far more convenient.
More Than Just a Display
The Note 70 comes with a 90Hz screen, which is fine. But once you try Spark 40’s 120Hz smooth display, you’ll notice the difference immediately scrolling feels fluid, gaming looks sharper, and even simple tasks like switching apps feel premium.
Plus, Spark 40’s screen can even handle wet or oily touches. That’s the kind of practical detail that makes life easier.
Built to Survive
Realme shouts loud about its military-grade build and IP54 splash resistance. Impressive, but Spark 40 goes further with IP64 Water & Dust resistance and Drop Resistance up to 1.5m. Spark 40 can handle more of life’s accidents.
Looks That Matter
The Note 70 keeps things simple with a slim build and two colors. Spark 40, on the other hand, comes in slim body and four trendy design.
Spark 40 also packs in extra features like dual DTS speakers, infrared remote control, and bigger memory options. These small touches make the experience more fun and flexible.
Price & Value
Both sit in the Rs. 30,000–33,000 range, so you’re not paying much more for either. But when Spark 40 gives you faster charging, smoother display, better durability, and extra features at roughly the same price, the value is hard to ignore.
Why Spark 40 Wins
The Realme Note 70 is solid if you want a massive battery and basic durability. But the TECNO Spark 40 simply does more: it charges faster, looks better, feels smoother, and offers extras you’ll use.
From a buyer’s perspective and ours too Spark 40 is the clear winner in this head-to-head.
