itel A70 is very popular on the Pindula market right now – especially <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-a70-256gb-4gb-22-2024012310464519631/">the 256GB version which goes for $99</a>. See, it’s the first phone of a notable brand to have so much storage and still go for less than $100.
In this article we answer common questions about the itel A70.
<h2>Why so much storage at such a price?</h2>
So itel brand is about affordability. This means the company tries very much to reduce the prices while still offering a strong backup for the phones – the 12 months warranty.
Generally in technology, prices keep coming down and itel simply passes these prices down to customers.
A70 was the first phone to break this $100 barrier with 256GB storage. But expect even more phones to come out this year with such a price and storage. Even other brands like Redmi.
<h2>Still this price is too low mhani!</h2>
As much as you think the price is low in Zimbabwe, it’s actually lower in other markets like Nigeria. This phone is going for less than $70 in Nigeria.
<h2>Why is this phone cheaper than those with 128GB storage.</h2>
Yes, other itel phones with less storage are going for much more.
<a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-p40-plus-22-20230611105441250523/">itel P40+</a> which has 128GB storage is going for $114
<a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-s23-128gb-8gb-22-202309191821613094/">S23+ curved screen</a> which is has 128GB is going for $164
And the <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/2024/01/05/itel-p55-p55-and-p55-5g-now-available-in-zimbabwe-starting-at-119/">recently released</a> <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-power-55-p55-128gb-8gb-22-2023122714513826305/">itel P55</a> which also has 128GB is going for $119
See, a phone’s ability is more than just storage and RAM. The processor (moyo wefoni) is the more important than storage and ram.
The processor in the A70 is a Unisoc T603. But processor names are meaningless without saying how it compares to the processors in the other phones. So, compared to the processors in the more expensive itel phones such as the P40+, S23 and P55, this is a slower one.
Besides the processor, there are also other specs to consider when buying a phone: the battery size, the camera quality, the display quality, the operating system.
Without going into too much detail, processor aside:
<ul>
<li>The P40+ has a bigger battery (7000mAh) compared to the A70. It also has a bigger and brighter display, and a better Android version.</li>
<li>The S23+ has a beautiful curved screen, a bigger screen size and a more advanced camera system</li>
<li>The P55 also has a much more advanced camera system, and brighter display</li>
</ul>
If you can afford the more expensive phone, even with 128GB storage, it’s a much more powerful phone than the A70. Which brings us to…
<h2>Who is the ideal person for the itel A70</h2>
Everyone. Really, it depends on the situation.
It’s the right phone for you if you:
<ul>
<li>want a phone below $100 but still want lots of storage, very good RAM, and good speed to run your WhatsApp, Instagram, Snapchat, TikTok etc…</li>
<li>need a second phone for other things – maybe you want a different WhatsApp line on a different phone. Or a different phone for work WhatsApp and calls….</li>
<li>are a small business and want a “reception” phone to just take general business calls and WhatsApp conversations.</li>
<li>want to buy a phone for your mother or father, whom you know don’t spend too much time on their phone but you still want to reach them on WhatsApp. </li>
<li>need to buy a phone for your child who is less than 13 years old (the kind of age where you can reset it anytime to start afresh.)</li>
<li>got your phone stolen, or it broke and need a quick replacement what will cover all the basics</li>
</ul>
It’s the wrong phone for you if:
<ul>
<li>You use your phone a lot for productive tasks.. like attending to 50+ work WhatsApp groups, answering +50 calls a day, storing lots of work documents. The processor is just not designed for that. The battery will not last the whole day on heavy usage. <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-p40-plus-22-20230611105441250523/">Go for  the P40+ instead</a></li>
<li>Photography is extremely important to you. You want to take lots of nice pictures and share them. The camera is not advanced enough for this. Consider the S23, <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/tecno-spark-20-128gb-8gb-22-2024020616716693297/">Tecno Spark 20</a> and P55 instead.</li>
<li>You want to play lots of advanced games on your phone. It will not be powerful enough and this may drain your battery. <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-p55-5g-128gb-12gb-22-20240105145741511085/">itel P55 5G which is $144 is probably what you’re looking for</a></li>
<li>You want a battery that lasts 3 days. <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-p40-plus-22-20230611105441250523/">Go for the P40+for that</a></li>
</ul>

Itel P55 range full specs

The <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-power-55-p55-128gb-8gb-22-2023122714513826305/">itel P55</a> has launched in Zimbabwe. The phone was launched at an event in Harare attended by brand’s officials, itel distributors, and dealers in Zimbabwe.
This is the latest phone in the <a href="https://itel.co.zw/">itel</a> P Series feature major upgrades to the memory, camera, charging and general design of the phone. For the first time, an itel phone will have 5G network version.
The phone has been available in Zimbabwe since 27 December 2023.
Pindula spoke to itel Southern Region Marketing Manager, Pegnef Nyangaidenzvi, who said about the new P55:
<blockquote>
In Zimbabwe, the P55 Series is coming in 3 versions namely <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-p55-128gb-8gb-22-20231227145949285959/">itel P55+</a>, P55 (5G), and P55.
From its predecessor series P40, the P55 series has improved on memory, charging speed specifically the P55+ which has 45W charging speed. You will remember that the P40 series only went up to 18W. 
The P55 also has significantly improved camera quality in the Itel P Series family line. In addition, the P55+ will be the first P Series to have 256gig Storage.
</blockquote>
<h2>Itel P55 charging improvements</h2>
The battery and charging on the P55+ is one major improvement. The specs suggest the phone will be charged from empty to completion within 1 hours, 10 minutes and that changes have been made to prevent over-heating.
Nyangaidenzvi said one standout improvement are the charging features:
<blockquote>
We now have a Power Charge function. This is an exclusive function only available on P55+. It works with high efficiency charging without overheating issues occurring.
As more people are becoming heavy users of mobile phones there is an increasing demand of fast charging phones.
There are 3 levels of charging charging  and by choosing different charging modes it helps to reduce power consumption and improve battery life and also ensuring customer safety when charging (overheating issues)
</blockquote>
<h2>P55 Price in Zimbabwe</h2>
The pricing of the P55 phones is ranging from $125 to $170 depending on the version and the retailer. The phone is priced to compete favourably with phones such as the Tecno Spark and Redmi 13c.
<h2>Full Specifications</h2>

Itel P55 Launches In Zimbabwe. 5G finally comes to itel. RAM up to 24GB

So our friend at Techzim and one of the most eminent reviewers of tech in Zimbabwe, Edwin Chabuka, just posted his <a href="https://www.techzim.co.zw/2023/12/itel-a70-review-so-much-hype-around-this-89-smartphone/">review of the most recently release itel phone, the A70</a>.
We post a quotes summary of his opinions about the phone, having taken it through the paces for a week.
<h2>Nails the Essentials:</h2>
<blockquote>
As a package, the <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-a70-128gb-3gb-22-20231121123027230027/">Itel A70</a> nails the essentials. I mean look, it’s US$89 so you need to manage your expectations here. It’s not going to be a spec fest in any sort of way. They nailed storage with the base model starting off with 3GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage all the way to the top-spec 4GB RAM and 256GB of storage.
</blockquote>
<h2>Storage and Demographics</h2>
<blockquote>
In a roundabout way, I am saying a base storage of 128GB on the <a href="https://itel.co.zw/p55-5g">Itel</a> A70 is very generous. And also very necessary because one of the demographics this phone is finding massive traction is the youngest of youth in primary school who are starting their smartphone ownership journey. And we all know no one is more media-heavy in their smartphone usage than those little kids.
</blockquote>
<h2>The second camera is a gimmick</h2>
We love itel ofcourse, but yes – the second (or 3rd, 4th etc..) camera is just a gimmick.
<blockquote>
On the Itel A70 you have a selfie flash-assisted 8MP front camera and a dual flash-assisted 13MP rear camera. It might look like there are 2 cameras on the back of the Itel A70 but the second one is just for looks.
</blockquote>
<h2>Selfie camera better than the main one?</h2>
<blockquote>
The selfie camera is very capable as we have come to expect from Itel devices. It almost feels like they spent more money putting on a higher-quality selfie camera and going for an average rear camera. It takes very clear selfies with better sharpness and detail than the rear main camera and lower noise level in challenging lighting. It’s a really decent selfie camera.
</blockquote>
 
<h2>It’s a cheap chipset</h2>
<blockquote>
The cheaper chipset was giving off a hint of lag when using the phone which is not that bad once you adapt to it. But it is there whenever you are navigating the UI or when the keyboard is summoned. It’s also limiting the camera’s performance in more challenging lighting scenarios. 
</blockquote>
 
<h2>Buy it if:</h2>
<blockquote>
This one is targeting these sort of people: 
-First-time smartphone users
-Smartphone users with low demands like just calls and very light social media
-Business individuals looking for a cheap work phone with a good battery and can do basic social media.

The much anticipated itel S23 Plus is finally in Zimbabwe. Fans of the brand can now purchase it.
Here’s information on the price. There are 2 version of the phone and so 2 different prices:
<ul>
<li>The cheaper one has 128GB internal storage and 8GB RAM which can be extended to 16GB. For simplicity, this is referred to as itel S23+ (128+8). This version is going for anything between $160 and $180</li>
<li>.</li>
<li>The more expensive one has 256GB of internal storage and 8GB or RAM (also extendable to 16GB via some 8GB virtual RAM). This one is referred to as the itel S23+ (256+8). This version is priced between $175 and $210.</li>
</ul>
At the writing of this article, in Zimbabwe, the 128GB version is the most readily available.
<h2>Where to buy the itel S23+ in Zimbabwe?</h2>
As with all itel, Tecno and Infinix phones, the itel S23+ can be bought at official retailers around the country.
These include itel Home shops in Harare, Bulawayo, Mutare and other cities. The exact price of the phone at these retailers will differ depending on their costs.
Pindula is an official itel retailer and you can <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-s23-128gb-8gb-22-202309191821613094/">buy the itel S23+ online here</a> and have it delivered to you.
<h2>What is the Warranty on the itel S23+</h2>
The S23+ comes with 12 months standard itel Warranty. This means for all manufacture defects that you find or experience within 12 months of buying the phone, you can have that defect fixed, or where needed the whole phone replaced.
Please note though that when you drop the phone, this is not a manufacture defect so you would be able to claim against it. The same goes with other things like it dropping into water and malfunctioning as a result.
Needless to say, when you open the inside of the phone, you will automatically void your warranty. It is therefore crucial that you take it to a CarlCare centre where itels are fixed on warranty if you notice a problem. Pindula advises that you do this, even when your phone is outside the warranty period. It’s just better to get it fixed at an official repair centre.
You can see a list of <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/2022/07/26/how-to-get-your-itel-and-tecno-repaired-on-warranty-in-zimbabwe/">CarlCare centres in Zimbabwe</a> on this link: <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/2022/07/26/how-to-get-your-itel-and-tecno-repaired-on-warranty-in-zimbabwe/">https://www.pindula.co.zw/2022/07/26/how-to-get-your-itel-and-tecno-repaired-on-warranty-in-zimbabwe/</a> 
 
<h2>What are the full specs of the itel S23+</h2>
We covered the <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/2023/09/13/itel-s23-with-curved-screen-to-be-released-in-zimbabwe/">full specs of the phone in the release</a> article about a week ago. We’ll include that information here as well:

itel S23+ Price in Zimbabwe

Pindula is reliably informed that the latest itel S23+ will soon be available in Zimbabwe.
The S23 Plus follows hard on the heels of the successful standard <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-s23-22-20230608161024425383/">Itel S23 phone</a>, bringing some significant improvements.
<h2>S23+ Curved HD+ AMOLED Screen </h2>
The biggest highlight of this latest phone is the new curved screen. The S23 Plus spots a curved Full HD+ AMOLED screen. The display comes with Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protection.
This is the first itel phone to get an AMOLED screen, and a curved one at that.
These changes means the screen is much brighter  clearer, sharper and much stronger. It also means the phone has a very improved modern look.
<h2>Other S23+ Improvements</h2>
Other improvements are on the Processor, the size of the phone, the size of the screen, the selfie camera, improved fast charging, and the Android version (now 13). 
The processor on the S23+ is much faster than the standard S23. Benchmarks <a href="https://www.notebookcheck.net/T606-vs-T616_14018_14016.247596.0.html">suggest this</a>.
Where the selfie camera was 8 megapixels on the standard S23, the S23 Plus comes with a 32 megapixel sensor selfie camera. This means  drastically clearer selfie photos and videos.
The size of the S23 Plus screen is 6.78 inches, which is much bigger than the 6.6 screen S23 standard.
In addition, the standard S23 came with 10W charging and that has been improved to 18W fast charging with the S23+.
<h2>S23+ Full Specifications</h2>
✅ 256GB – Storage Memory
✅ 8GB (and an additional 8GB extended RAM)
✅ 4G LTE – Network
✅ 50 Megapixels – Rear Camera:
✅ 32 Megapixels – Selfie camera:
✅ Unisoc T616 Octa-core – Processor
✅ Android 13
✅ 5000 mAh battery with 18W fast-charging
✅ 6.78 inch Full HD+ AMOLED Curved Screen
✅ Release Date: September 2023
<h2>S23+ Price in Zimbabwe</h2>
With the phone not released in Zimbabwe yet, we don’t have the price.
However, indications, based on the price in markets it has already been released in (like Ethiopia) we may be looking at the $150 to $170 range.
That said, the standard S23 shocked the market with an accessible price, so it’s really hard to predict the price at the moment.

The phone is now available at itel in the country. The A60s is a higher capacity version of the standard A60 which was released in May but has 32GB storage and 2GB RAM.
The release of the A60s also follows the release of the <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-s23-22-20230608161024425383/">itel S23 earlier this month which was priced at $119</a>. 
Before the A60s, smartphones that had 128GB of storage were generally priced at more than $110. Itel has therefore broken new ground as far as the capacity and price of entry-level smartphones.
<h2>Here are the full Specifications of the Itel A60s</h2>

<h2>Pros </h2>
The price is very good for a phone that comes with 128GB of storage. This is ample storage to install and store a lot of stuff without worrying about running of out space.
The RAM is also a lot for its price which means faster responses and no chances of freezing while in normal use. 
At 5000 mAh the battery is also a positive thing about this phone.
<h2>Cons</h2>
The weakest part of this phone is the processor. It’s an 8-core chipset that was announced on November 27, 2018, and is manufactured using a 28-nanometer process technology.
The camera is also very low quality at 8 megapixels on the back.
<h2>Conclusion</h2>
The itel A60s is great for someone who wants a lot of storage and general responsiveness of the phone. However, it’s not for anyone looking for a good camera.
It’s also a great work phone designed to just receive business calls, keep records, and have WhatsApp chats with customers.
Pindula is an official Itel, Tecno, and Infinix retailer in Zimbabwe. The itel A60s can be bought online in Zimbabwe on Pindula here: <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-a60-s-22-20230629103710750786/">https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-a60-s-22-20230629103710750786/</a>

Itel A60s: 128GB Storage, 4GB RAM and Priced Under $100 in Zimbabwe

Last week, itel launched the <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-p40-plus-22-20230611105441250523/">P40 Plus</a>. This followed the launch of the <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/2023/05/07/itel-p40-the-brands-top-phone-is-now-available-in-zimbabwe-6000-mah-battery-4g-lte/">P40 standard just a month ago</a>.
The release of the P40 Plus has resulted in many people asking us how the two phones compare. 
The main difference is that the P40 has a massive 7000 mAh battery, compared to the 6000 mAh on the P40 standard.
The other big difference is the size of the phone. The P40 Plus is slightly bigger with a 6.8-inch display. The P40 has a 6.6-inch display.
The processor is also a big difference between the 2 phones. The P40 Plus has a much faster Tiger T606 CPU which runs at 1.6GHz base frequency. The P40 Standard on the other hand has a base frequency of 1.2Ghz.

itel P40 Plus and itel P40 Compared

Itel has just released another flavour of the P40. The first P40 came in <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/2023/05/07/itel-p40-the-brands-top-phone-is-now-available-in-zimbabwe-6000-mah-battery-4g-lte/">last month in May</a>, breaking the record for having the most storage in an itel phone – 128GB. That record has since been broken by the <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-s23-22-20230608161024425383/">itel S23</a> released last week which comes with 8GB RAM.
The new <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-p40-plus-22-20230611105441250523/">itel P40 Plus</a> breaks another record for the itel lineup – the phone comes with a massive 7000 mAh battery.
This is the first for an itel phone. Previously, all the brand’s phones ended at 6000 mAh (the <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/2022/10/05/itel-p38-pro-prices-in-zimbabwe-specs-full-features/">itel P38 Pro</a> , and the Itel P40).

As you can see from the comparison table, the phones are quite similar, with the exception of 3 things where the Itel P40 is better.
<h2>Is the Itel P40 a better phone than the Tecno Pop 7 Pro</h2>
The answer is Yes.
The Itel p40 has a larger battery at 6000 mAh, compared to the Tecno’s 5000 mAh. The itel P40 battery also charges faster.
The Itel P40’s Unisoc SC9863A is a slightly better processor than the Tecno Pop 7 Pro’s Helio A22. This means the P40 is faster in general even though they are both entry-level processors.
<h2>Which one would you choose?</h2>
At the end of the day, brands are a powerful thing. Some just love Tecno and others love Itel and that plays a part.  Pindula would love to know in the comments which of the two phones you would take if given a choice.

Itel P40 and Tecno Pop 7 Pro Compared. Which one is better?

Itel is set to launch its highest RAM and Camera capacity budget phone later this month. The phone, called the Itel S23 will come with 8GB of RAM and another 8GB of extended RAM making it 16GB of RAM in total. it will also come with a 50-megapixel camera.
The phone will be launched in India on the Amazon platform later this June. According to a report by an Indian phone publication, <a href="https://www.91mobiles.com/hub/itel-s23-india-launch-timeline-specs-price-range/">91mobiles</a>, the phone will retail at a price between 8,000 and 9,000 Rupees. 
<h2>Itel S23 Price</h2>
It is not clear yet if itel will also be distributing the phone in Zimbabwe via official channels. If it does, the phone would likely retail between $120 and $140 given the Indian price. If the Itel S23 is not available via the official channels, then it will likely still be available via gray imports from India.

The latest itel phones available in Zimbabwe right now include the Itel A60 and the Itel P40.

Itel To Launch 8GB RAM, 50MP Camera Phone, the S23. Selling For Less Than $140

ZESA electricity outages and load-shedding are still a big problem in Zimbabwe, so how long a battery phone lasts is very important. Worse, there are a lot of new residential suburbs where house owners do not have electricity installed at all.
Pindula has compiled a list of phones with the biggest batteries available here in Zimbabwe.
It is important to know however that having the biggest capacity battery does not automatically mean the longest-lasting battery. The <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/2023/05/18/tips-taking-care-of-your-phone-battery-so-it-lasts-longer/">battery life is affected by a lot of things</a>. A phone may have a very big battery mAh but poor power management. With Samsungs, for example, the Galaxy S23 Ultra has the same 5,000 mAh size battery as Galaxy S22 Ultra, but it lasts much longer because of its more power-efficient Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor.
It is also common for budget mobile phones, such as itel and Tecno, to have higher battery-size lots of inbuilt apps always running that cannot be turned off. This uses more battery.
<h2>Itel P40 (6,000 mAh)</h2>

Affordable Mobile Phones With The Biggest Batteries

It’s the month of May and in the itel universe that means the launch of a new P series phone. The itel P40 is now available in Zimbabwe.
The P series in the itel lineup of phones is basically the flagship or top of the brand. What this means is that if you’re looking for the best itel phone available right now – this is it.
Yes, some will say that this is an entry-level phone compared to other brands. Indeed it is a budget phone, but it is the best of the itel brand budget phones.
 
<h2>Itel P40 Specs</h2>
The most striking thing about the P40 is its battery which is coming at 6000 mAh. This is a bigger battery than its predecessor which was 5000 mAh. Itel claims that this battery can last 3 days on a single charge. For those that eventually buy this phone, please comment below with your experience.
It also comes with bigger RAM (4GB option) and Memory (64GB) and now has 4G LTE.
Though 4GB is the actual RAM, you will find the box of this phone says it has 7GB. The other 3GB being added there virtual RAM. Virtual or Extended RAM just means the itel P40 utilizes its internal storage to provide additional RAM. This is a fairly common thing with smartphones these days. It makes the phone even faster.

<h2>Itel P38 and P40 compared</h2>
The P40 is a successor to the Itel P38 which was launched in 2022. So yes, if you were planning to buy the p38, then this is a much better phone. Of course, the P38 makes sense in Zimbabwe if you’re getting it at a price of around $80.
Here’s a comparison of the two phones. It’s not clear why Transsion (the company behind itel)  skipped the P39 number here. If we learn the reasons we will update this article.

Itel P40, latest flagship now available in Zimbabwe. 6000 mAh battery, 64GB, 7GB RAM, 4G LTE

Data from global analytics company <a href="https://gs.statcounter.com/vendor-market-share/mobile/zimbabwe/#monthly-202201-202212-bar">StatCounter</a> shows that Samsung has continued to be the most popular phone brand in Zimbabwe in 2022.
Samsung mobile phones had 33% market share in the country. 
Huawei is a distant second with 21% market share. The third most popular device brand in Zimbabwe is iPhone, the Apple smartphone, which has 13% market share.
The third and Fourth most popular mobile phone brands are Itel and Tecno which have 11% and 6% market share respectively. Other notable but relatively less popular brands include Nokia, Xiaomi, and Infinix.
StatCounter is a web analytics service that claims to calculate stats on the basis of more than 5 billion page views per month, by people from all over the world onto some 1.5 million member sites. it’s one of the few companies globally that collates this data and makes it available to the public.
Given that the method of data collection considers phones that can connect to the internet, this leaves out basic and feature phones which are not designed for internet connectivity. There is some evidence that features phones are quite popular in Zimbabwe. Including them would likely change the ranking.
The picture of the data generally agrees with data from websites in Zimbabwe (specifically, Pindula and Techzim).
<h2>Popular Samsung Phones</h2>
According to that local data, the most popular Samsung phone in Zimbabwe in 2022 was the Samsung A12. This was followed by Samsung A21s, then Samsung A32, then A2 Core, the Samsung 10s, and Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime Plus. 
Samsung phones are generally imported into the country as grey imports. These can be brand new as well as refurbished ones. Zimbabweans have generally shied away from buying from official Samsung channels due to high prices.
<h2>Popular Huawei Phones</h2>
As for Huawei, the local data shows that the most popular model in 2022 was the P30 Lite. This is followed by the Y series devices Y9 Prime, Y5 Prime, Y5 Lite and Y7. There is also P20 Lite, P30 Pro, Honour 4x and Y9 but these are relatively less popular.
<h2>Popular Itel Phones</h2>
According to data the most popular Itel phones in Zimbabwe in 2020 include Vision 1 Plus, A16 Plus, A56 Lite (and Pro), P15, and Itel A36. These are itel phones released between 2019 and 2021.
<h2>Popular Tecno Phones</h2>
As for Tecno mobile phones, the most popular are just Spark 7 and Spark 6 Go. Just as with Itel, these are phones from several years ago, showing slow uptake of new releases by both Tecno and Itel.
<h2>Popular Gtel Phones</h2>
Even though Gtel does not show prominently as a popular phone brand in the country as per global stats, some of its models have been popular enough locally to rival the major brand models. Local data suggests that the Gtel Infinity is the most popular Gtel phone in the country. This model is followed by the Infinity 8s.

Itel Smartphones Available On Credit To Zimbabwe Civil Servants

In October, what is now its best phone ever, the <a href="https://zero.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-s18-pro/">S18 Pro</a>.
The S18 Pro tops all the existing itel phones on capacity coming with 64GB storage and 4GB RAM.
The only phone that comes close is the existing <a href="https://zero.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-p38-pro/">itel P38 Pro</a> whose RAM however only goes up to 2GB. Itel also says that the 4GB RAM on the S18 Pro can be extended via an update on the internet to 7GB.
We think this is a clever way to make the RAM appear to have increased but we don’t yet know how much faster the phone will be due to it. 
Itel is touting the phone as one made for selfie vlogging. This is just another way of saying it has a really advanced front selfie camera compared to other mobile phones in its category. The selfie camera comes with 32 megapixels, so yes, it ideally performs better taking selfie videos to post to WhatsApp status, Tiktok, and other such platforms.
The battery is also large at 5000 mAh. it should last more than a day on normal usage. 
The S18 Pro comes with 4G LTE connectivity, so in case there’s 4G signal where you are in the country, it should download and upload stuff very fast!
<h2>Itel S18 Pro price in Zimbabwe</h2>
What is the fair price to pay for the S18 Pro?
This is the top itel phone right, better in features than the <a href="https://zero.pindula.co.zw/itel-p38-pro-prices-in-zimbabwe-specs-full-features/">ruling P38 Pro</a>. In Zimbabwe, you should expect between $125 and $150 for the phone. At more than $150, you’re definitely overpaying and should consider shopping around.
Sometimes Itel Zimbabwe has specials (what they call Flash sales) and the retail price of such a phone can come down lower than $125.
<h2>Recommendation</h2>
If you love the Itel brand and it has worked for you, you definitely should consider this phone. It’s priced higher than all itel smartphones on the market, but it’s definitely worth it compared to other itels.
At 64GB storage, there’s lots of space to store your images and some videos. Also, enough space to put lots of movies to watch when you’re at home.
The 4GB RAM makes it a really fast phone for processing, and at its price, it’s a much better spend for your money than the current P38 Pro.

Pindula Partners Bridgevest Capital To Offer Civil Servants Mobile Phones On Credit

One of the most sought-after itel phones in Zimbabwe is the <a href="https://zero.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-p38-pro-64gb-2g-ram-22/">itel P38 Pro</a>. This is the latest flagship phone for the itel brand. This article breaks down the prices you can find locally, its features, specs, and Pindua’s recommendation on this phone.
Itel is no doubt a budget phone brand. The whole idea of this brand is to make phones with decent features affordable to more people. The same company that makes this brand also makes the Tecno and Infinix which are higher-priced phones and therefore generally better.
<h2>What is the itel P38 Pro 4G</h2>
This phone is a successor to the Itel P37 Pro.  It was released in May 2022 which makes it a very recent phone. Notable features on the phone are its large screen size which is 6.8 inches, bigger storage at 64GB, and 4G LTE. It also has the biggest battery of any Itel phone at 6000 mAh.
The only thing not so good on the phone is the RAM, which is just 2GB. But again, the typical price of below US $120 means there are some sacrifices made.
<h2>Expected retail prices for the itel P38 Pro in Zimbabwe</h2>
In Zimbabwe, you must expect a brand new itel P38 Pro to be priced anyway between US $115 and US $130.
If the price is below $110, then be careful. It’s possible you may not be buying a brand new phone, or worse, someone is trying to sell you something else.
If the price is above $130, then you may need to shop around for a better deal.
Ofcourse the best thing is to buy from a reputable official itel retailer. In Zimbabwe, you will find itel Home, Mobile Express, T-Mobile and others.
Pindula is also an official itel retailer and you can the P38 Pro for $115 directly on this link: <a href="https://zero.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-p38-pro-64gb-2g-ram-22/">https://zero.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-p38-pro-64gb-2g-ram-22/</a>
