itel has announced the launch of the itel SUPER 26 Ultra in Kenya. The phone is available in Kenya for KES 20,499. The phone blends premium design, powerful performance and intelligent AI features at a price few competitors can match.
The SUPER 26 Ultra is built around a 6.78-inch 3D Curved AMOLED display with a 1.5K resolution and an ultra-smooth 144Hz refresh rate. This delivers a viewing experience rarely seen in this price range. The screen is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 7i, and the phone’s TitanShield Architecture gives it added strength. The phone has an IP65 rating for dust and water resistance and drop protection up to 1.5 meters.
Under the hood, the itel SUPER 26 Ultra packs the Unisoc T7300 processor. This is paired with 8GB RAM and up to 256GB of internal storage. According to itel, the chipset scores over 510,000 points on AnTuTu, making it one of the highest-performing 4G processors on the market.
Powering the phone is a 6000mAh battery that supports 18W fast charging. Despite the large capacity, the phone’s slim profile remains intact. The company promises up to six years of stable, smooth performance, thanks to software and hardware optimization under Android 15 with itel OS 15.
