Buying in Pakistan
- Check the IMEI and the exact model — BG7n or BG7

- Check the variant (4GB vs 8GB) before paying
Final Verdict: A 50MP camera on a budget frame, if you can still find one
The Spark 20c is a straightforward budget phone: a big battery, a 90Hz screen and a 50MP main camera for under thirty thousand rupees. The catch is that it is discontinued, so finding a new unit — and getting it PTA-approved — is the real challenge. If you can find a genuine sealed piece at the expected price and it clears DIRBS, it is a fair buy for the money; otherwise, move on to a current model.
