TECNO CAMON 15 PRO

Impressive Looks, Big Battery

TRANSITION Holdings’ premium smartphone brand TECNO Mobile is a global player with presence in around 60 emerging markets across the world. Recently, it has refreshed its camera-centric smartphone line up in the country with CAMON 15 and CAMON 15Pro for Rs 9,999 and Rs 14,999, respectively.

The company says that the CAMON smartphones will bring the era of higher camera pixels, premium AI-enabled Ultra Night lens (powered by DSP technology)and pop-up selfie camera.

The CAMON 15 comes in Shoal Gold, Fascinating Purple, Dark Jade with 4GB RAM and 64GB internal storage whereas CAMON 15Pro is available in Ice Jadeite and Opal white colours with 6GB RAM and 128GB internal storage.

CAMON 15Pro is the first smartphone phone from the company with a pop-up selfie design coupled with some decent hardware specs. We used the device for a few days and here’s how it fared.

Design

The design of TECNO CAMON 15Pro is much premium than the previous smartphones. The Ice Jadeite colour is very much appealing and gorgeous. It has a polycarbonate plastic glossy finish at the back panel with quad-camera rear setup and lining pattern that makes it look attractive. The front has a bezel-less display with a slight chin at the bottom. The power and volume keys are placed on the right edge, a dual-SIM slot on the left. A speaker grille, USB port and 3.5mm jack are placed on the bottom edge and a pop-up selfie camera on the top edge. It is a little curvedand I found it little difficult to easily fit in one hand. One thing that I liked about the phone is that even with glossy back, it attracts fewer smudges as compared to other smartphones. Also, you get a protective case in case you want to protect it completely against dust and smudges.
