Checked here
None yet. Be the first: every F2 checked confirms what genuine ones show, so the next buyer's check is surer.
Software: Android 7 and up
A F2 showing Android older than 7 isn't what it says.
F2 or F1?
Sellers mix these up, by mistake or on purpose. If the seller says one and the check says the other, believe the check.

Questions people ask
What model number is the F2?
A real Tecno F2 reports TECNO F2 or TECNO F2LTE. In Chrome, Phone Checker reads it from the phone itself, so a copy can't hide behind Settings.
How much RAM does the F2 have?
At least 1 GB in the smallest version sold. A copy often has less, whatever its Settings say.
Which Android versions does the F2 run?
It came with Android 7. A version older than 7 means a different phone.
How do I know if my F2 is original?
Open ogphonechecker.com on the phone itself and tap Check this phone. In about 20 seconds it compares the model code, graphics chip, RAM and screen with a real F2, for free.
