Tecno Camon 40 4G

Display & Design

The Camon 40 stands out with its large 6.78-inch AMOLED display, boasting a fluid 120 Hz refresh rate. With a 1080×2436 resolution and roughly 393 ppi, it offers sharp visuals and vivid colors ideal for media consumption, gaming, and productivity. Its ultra-narrow bezels deliver an immersive viewing experience, reaching nearly 90% screen-to-body ratio. At only 7.3 mm thin and weighing around 210 g, the phone feels premium and comfortable to hold. Super-bright peak brightness ensures good outdoor visibility, while the elegant metal frame and refined color options—Emerald Lake Green, Glacier White, Galaxy Black, and Emerald Glow Green—give it a modern and sophisticated design.

Performance & Software

Under the hood, it runs on a 6 nm MediaTek Helio G100 Ultimate chipset (two Cortex-A76 performance cores and six Cortex-A55 cores) paired with the Mali-G57 MC2 GPU. Supported by 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB or 256 GB storage, it provides smooth everyday performance for social media, video playback, light gaming, and multitasking. The device launches with Android 15 and Tecno’s HIOS 15 skin, offering useful features like AI-powered image tools, an IR blaster, and infra-red remote capabilities. Reddit users praise the camera and UI simplicity, but note that software animations in HIOS lag behind rival UIs—the phone delivers features over finesse, though functionally capable.

Camera System and AI Features

Photography is a key highlight: a 50 MP primary rear camera with OIS and a secondary 8 MP ultra-wide sensor deliver strong image quality—rich colours, sharp detail, and a wide field of view. Low-light prowess is enhanced by the OIS and AI-powered flashcap and BestMoment modes, designed to pick the best shot from rapid bursts. A robust 32 MP selfie camera ensures clear self-portraits and video calls. The UI offers an easy-to-use experience for casual users. While some report minor color inconsistencies indoors, the AI-enhanced camera experience is a major strength in the mid-range segment.

Battery & Charging

Powering the Camon 40 is a robust 5,200‑mAh battery that promises up to two days of moderate use—ideal for users on the go. A high-wattage 45 W charger enables quick top-ups, around half-charge in 20–25 minutes and a full charge in about 40–45 minutes. This convenience, combined with intelligent battery management, reduces downtime and improves usability. Without wireless charging, the fast wired option delivers solid performance and long-term stability.

Connectivity & Extra Features

This Camon model includes dual SIM, 4G connectivity, Wi‑Fi, Bluetooth, NFC, GPS, FM radio, and an IR blaster. The in-display fingerprint scanner works swiftly, reinforcing security. Additional features like Dolby Atmos stereo speakers and IP66 dust- and water-resistance further enhance value. While international availability, especially for 5G, may vary, the 4G variant offers comprehensive connectivity for most users.
