Earlier this month TECNO, the AI‑driven technology brand, was honoured with two IFA Global Product Technology Innovation Gold awards at the IFA 2026 exhibition.

The Tonino Lamborghini TECNO TAURUS (MEGA MINI G1 Pro) received the Miniaturized Gaming PC Technology Innovation Gold Award, praised for its Italian‑styled aesthetics and high performance in a compact chassis.

The TECNO Modular Phone earned the Ultra Slim Magnetic Modular Technology Innovation Gold Award, highlighted for its ultra‑slim build and magnetic modular technology.

What the winning products offer

The Modular Phone measures 4.9 mm thick, making it the world’s thinnest modular smartphone, and uses proprietary magnetic interconnection technology to support ten high‑performance modules while retaining a 3000‑4000 mAh battery.

The TAURUS mini PC, housed in a vertical 6.36‑liter chassis, combines an Intel Core i9‑13900HK processor with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 GPU and a water‑cooling system, delivering high‑fidelity gaming and AI workstation performance through 15 ports including OCuLink, USB4 and WiFi 6E.

Implications for Kenyan consumers

The awards reinforce TECNO’s growing reputation among Kenyan tech media and shoppers, who typically purchase the brand’s Camon, Spark and POVA series through local dealers.

While the Modular Phone is slated for mass production soon, Kenyan buyers can expect the design concepts to filter into upcoming TECNO models released in the next year or two.

Future product outlook

TECNO also showcased concept devices such as a bezel‑less phone and a convertible laptop at IFA; these are not slated for immediate retail but may influence future Camon and Spark line‑ups.
