The Tecno Camon 15 is officially here and before we lay our hands on it for a full review, here are some of the features you can expect from the phone.
Photography
The Camon series has always been focused on photography and for that, there are improvements to the cameras in every new launch. With the Camon 15, we’re looking at a 64MP Sony camera with the technology trademarked TAIVOS. A combination of Sony imaging and Camon 15 improvements in photography is certainly something for mobile photography fans to look forward to.
This is the first ever smartphone in Africa to come with this type of lens which will comfortably shoot 8x zoom without losing details. Sony sees to it that more light is captured in the evening and night, and that visual noise is visibly eliminated. The 64 MP main camera is equipped with camera features like AI scene detection, ultra-clear shot, super HDR and ultra night short – all of which come together to enhance photograph resolution both day and night.
32MP pop-up camera
For the Camon 15 Premier handset, users will have a 32MP pop up front camera with a clear lense – a feature that will excite selfie lovers a good one. The pop-up camera also has a smart anti-fall feature and built in facial algorithms for beauty effects so that users do not have to then take much time to retouch photos.
Furthermore, the Camon 15’s beautification 3.0 is available with three kinds of built-in beauty effects, various adjustments on UI interface, and a real-time preview in one click. The beauty enhancement algorithm recognizes a total of 18 unique structural elements in the human face and uses 3D beautification and smart tone enhancement to help highlight people’s natural features. You can also use AI Body Shaping to augment your figure, and Portrait Bokeh 2.0 helps optimize blurred background effects for more alluring portraits.
AR Stickers, Emojis and GIFS
For the goofy people among us, there will be plenty of AR stickers and emojis and what’s more, football lovers have been included in this mix with 4 unique emoji figures of Manchester City Football Club. GIF expressions have also been launched in this phone with specially designed Tecno X Manchester City Football Club stickers that can now be used to generate fun GIF expressions on one click. Now, you can express your mood via a lovely GIF!
Short Video Recording
All this fun does not stop at still photography. Users of the Tecno Camon 15 can also take short fun video recordings. This feature is equipped with 9 filter styles, AI beauty optimization, wide-angle recording, quick playback and 15s/60s two versions setting.
128GB ROM + 6GB RAM, 4000mAh long-lasting battery, Powerful Performance
All these features and more that we’ll cover in the review cannot come without a good battery and good storage. The Tecno Camon 15 will have a 128GB ROM which is quite sufficient to store all those photos, videos and GIFS, and 6GB RAM to ensure stability, speedy performance, and multitasking without a hitch.
With a 4000mAh battery, stable and continuous power supply is almost guaranteed.
