The trend towards ultra-slim smartphones, arguably kicked off by leaked devices like the (now launched) iPhone Air, continues to shape the market in late October 2025. There have been thin phones made before as well. But right now technologically advanced methods of manufacturing have given the idea a new lease of life. While extreme thinness often comes with a premium price tag, TECNO carved out a unique niche with the POVA Slim 5G back in September. Offering that coveted super-sleek profile at a mid-range ₹19,999 price, it aimed to bring the “iPhone Air” aesthetic to the masses, positioning itself as the “poor man’s iPhone Air”.

Let’s revisit the details.
