TECNO Spark Go 3 Launched in India at Rs 8,999 with 120Hz Display and IP64 Rating

TECNO has officially launched the TECNO Spark Go 3 in India, and at Rs 8,999, this phone is clearly not trying to impress on paper alone. It is aiming straight at real-life users including students, delivery partners, field workers, and anyone who is tired of fragile budget smartphones that give up too easily.

In a market flooded with flashy specs and short-lived promises, TECNO’s latest 4G smartphone takes a different route. It focuses on durability, smooth daily performance, and practical features that actually matter in Indian conditions. That approach deserves attention.

TECNO Spark Go 3 price and availability details

The TECNO Spark Go 3 is priced at Rs 8,999 for its single 4GB RAM + 64GB storage variant. The phone will go on sale starting January 23 at 12 PM, both on Amazon India and at leading offline retail stores.

It comes in four colour options:

• Titanium Grey
• Ink Black
• Galaxy Blue
• Aurora Purple

At this price point, TECNO is clearly targeting first-time smartphone buyers and users upgrading from older devices.

TECNO Spark Go 3 design and durability focus

This is where the TECNO Spark Go 3 stands out. The phone carries an IP64 rating, making it resistant to dust and water splashes, still a rare feature in this segment. TECNO also claims “drop-ready durability,” clearly positioning this phone for rough, everyday use.

This is a smart move. Budget phone users don’t baby their devices, and TECNO seems to understand that reality better than most brands chasing glossy finishes.

TECNO Spark Go 3 display and performance experience

The TECNO Spark Go 3 features a 6.745-inch HD+ display with a 120Hz refresh rate. The resolution remains at 720p, however the smooth scrolling makes a noticeable difference in daily usage, particularly in social media, browsing, and navigation.

Its brightness is a bit low at approximately 580 nits, but it is still a good display for outdoor use, although it will need to be tested in bright sunlight.

The phone is powered by Unisoc T7250 and is an octa-core processor that comes with 4GB RAM + 4GB virtual RAM and 64GB storage, which can be expanded up to 1TB. It is good enough to use in everyday applications, light gaming, and multi-tasking without frequent stutters.

It operates on Android 15 using the HiOS that is cleaner and more optimized than the previous versions of the TECNO software. That’s a positive shift.

TECNO Spark Go 3 battery and charging reliability

Battery anxiety won’t be an issue here. The TECNO Spark Go 3 packs a 5000mAh battery, easily lasting a full day and more for most users. It supports 15W fast charging, though 10W charging is provided in the box via a USB Type-C port.

This is practical, dependable, and exactly what a budget phone should deliver.

TECNO Spark Go 3 camera 

Photography is handled by a 13MP rear camera and an 8MP front camera with screen flash. The results won’t beat mid-range phones, but they are decent for social media and video calls.

TECNO Spark Go 3 AI Features

This is where TECNO quietly adds value. The Ella AI voice assistant supports multiple Indian languages, including:

• Hindi
• Tamil
• Bengali
• Gujarati
• Marathi

For many first-time or regional-language users, this matters more than flashy AI buzzwords. Add to that No Network Communication 2.0, which allows limited communication in low or zero-network areas like basements or rural zones, a niche feature, but genuinely helpful.

TECNO Spark Go 3 Knows Its Audience

The TECNO Spark Go 3 doesn’t pretend to be something it’s not. It doesn’t chase 5G or overhype its camera. Instead, it delivers durability, a smooth display, strong battery life, and thoughtful India-first features.

In my view, this is one of the most honest budget smartphones launched recently. If you want a phone that survives daily chaos rather than just looking good in ads, the TECNO Spark Go 3 makes a strong case for itself.
