DESIGN
The TECNO Camon 16 is a looker. Our review unit was in the misty grey color, and it was a looker even with a jelly case on. Speaking of the jelly case, the glossy back was a fingerprint magnet, but the included jelly case saved me from fingerprint apocalypse, plus it was fairly thick and gave me reassurance in case I dropped it.
On the front of the phone is the 6.8-inch HD+ screen along with the 16-megapixel selfie camera. At the back is the quadcamera setup and below that is the fingerprint reader. On the left side is the sim card tray and microSD slot, on the right is the volume and power buttons. Lastly, below is the downward-facing speaker, micro-USB charging port, and headphone jack.
HARDWARE
The Camon 16 is powered by a MediaTek Helios G70 octa-core processor with 6GB of RAM and 128 GB of internal storage.
The phone’s camera is its main feature, sporting a quad-camera setup at the back. It has a 48-megapixel main shooter, a 2-megapixel Bokeh lens, another 2-megapixel Macro lens, and the brand’s AI lens. The camera has 10x digital zoom, can record videos at 2K, and Ultra Night Lens.
You also won’t run out of juice with the massive 5000mAh battery which supports 18W fast charging. The phone lasted me a whole day of heavy gaming and needed just 2 hours to go back to 100%.
USER EXPERIENCE
It was only last year when I first heard about Tecno Mobile. Since it was a newcomer, I set my expectations low since I didn’t know what I would be getting, rather experiencing. Boy was I surprised!
