Price in Pakistan

The MobileDokan official row converts to Rs. 27,999 for the 8GB + 256GB variant. whatmobile and hamariweb both list Rs. 29,999 — a 2,000-rupee gap. zmobiles lists a 36,999–43,999 range “depending on condition & seller” with a 4GB + 128GB variant line at 42,999 (“Official Launch Price”) — both are named here as the outlier and not used. The MD glance box says BDT 12,599, but the price ROW says 12,499 and rows win — that is the figure used here. The 4GB + 128GB and 8GB + 128GB variants have no sourced Pakistan price, so only the 8GB + 256GB is listed. PTA status is not yet confirmed — check it on DIRBS before buying.

Buying in Pakistan

  • Check the IMEI and the exact model — KM4k
  • Confirm the warranty
  • Confirm PTA status on DIRBS before paying
  • Check the variant (4GB + 128GB / 8GB + 128GB / 8GB + 256GB) before paying — only the 8GB + 256GB has a sourced price

Final Verdict: A 6000mAh battery and a 120Hz screen for under thirty thousand

The Spark 40c is the battery king of this batch: a 6000mAh cell, a 120Hz screen with 700 nits HBM brightness and Android 15 with HIOS 15.1, all for under thirty thousand rupees. The single 13MP camera and the entry-level Helio G81 are the obvious compromises, and there is no microSD slot listed — so pick the 256GB variant if you keep a lot on your phone. Check the PTA status on DIRBS before paying, and the 8GB + 256GB model is the one to buy.
