Tecno Camon 17 Review

We used to complain about the bad performance of smartphones, but that is no longer an issue. A good CPU is becoming quite common on smartphones. Tecno’s new Camon 17 is outfitted with the best-in-class MediaTek Helio G85 CPU. The memory has 128 GB of internal storage with 6 GB of RAM and a second model with 128 GB storage and 4 GB RAM. Internal storage space can be expanded. This phone runs HiOS Android11 which is Tecno’s own Android interface, in addition to the great CPU for gaming and heavy-duty activities. The display is a 6.6-inch IPS LCD 90Hz touchscreen with a resolution of 720 x 1600 pixels. Despite its huge display, it is comfortable to carry in one hand. Probably because it isn’t overly tall or wide. The phone’s body is composed of front glass (Glass), rear plastic, and a plastic frame. Furthermore, minor details like the textured surface on the volume rocker contribute to a really intuitive design experience. The smartphone has built-in fingerprint sensors (rear-mounted) for main security, as well as support for face, unlock functionality.

The Tecno Camon 17 has a quadruple back camera arrangement, with the main lens having a 64MP resolution sensor. There are two 2MP resolutions, where one is a macro lens, while the other is a depth sensor. An AI lens serves as the fourth sensor. Notably, a quad flash setup supports the back camera array. There is also a single front-facing selfie camera with a resolution of 16 MP. This phone’s camera app is packed with features. If we talk about the battery of the phone, it is a strong non-removable Li-Po 5000 mAh battery that, when combined with HiOS battery optimization, ensures you obtain at least a day’s charge even during heavy usage. In addition, a fast 18W charger will be included in the phone’s original box. A 5000mAh battery should be charged in 2.5 hours or less. Wireless charging is not supported by the device. Camon 17 supports 3G and 4G networks. This smartphone includes a GPS receiver. GPS is a satellite-based navigation system that determines the precise geographical location on Earth. This Tecno smartphone comes with an FM radio receiver. The phone is available in three colors: Frost Silver, Deep Sea, and Tranquil Green.
