The Tecno SA2S is a smartphone supported by Google up to Android 8.1 Oreo. This means it is capable of running fairly recent software and that’s a good thing if you want to avoid general crashes, freezes, and locking up that can occur when using apps and peforming other tasks. When apps are developed for the latest versions of Android, they inevitable don’t work on older versions as well. As newer versions of Android are released, they are capable of handling more load for apps to run smoother. Thankfully every version of Android has a built-in feature for taking a hard reset. And should your Tecno SA2S every start locking up, you can take the hard reset to solve it.
