With a 6.4-inch AMOLED screen on the front, Tecno Camon 12 Pro is a device to behold for an average Nigerian who wants a simple, yet a powerful device.
Tecno Camon 12 Pro also has the notch on the screen, which is a common practice by modern design standards, though this time the design has a U shape as against V shape.
Check below what this device entails:
- 6.4 inch Infinity-U AMOLED Display, 720 x 1548 pixels, 20:9 ratio (~266 ppi)
- Android 9.0 (Pie); HIOS 5.5
- Octa-Core Processor
- 6GB RAM
- 64GB Built-in Storage, up to 256GB Memory Card
- Fingerprint Sensor (under display, optical)
- 16MP + 8MP + 2MP Triple Rear Camera with Quad LED Flash
- 32MP Front Camera with Dual LED Flash
- 3500 mAh Non-removable Li-Po Battery
Design and Display
The finger print reader has been moved from the rear to under the display in this device which should give it a more premium feel and modern design standard.
The rear panel of the device is made of plastic.
Camera
On the rear, the device sports a main 16 megapixels shooter, coupled with an 8 megapixels ultrawide sensor and a 2 megapixels depth sensor.
There will be no telephoto lens here, so the phone will make use of any of the cameras onboard for portrait shots. The Camon 12 Pro shares the same dual flash design as that on the Phantom 9.
The device comes with a 32-megapixel selfie shooter as it is a camera-centric device. This should provide high-quality images, especially for selfie lovers.
Hardware, Software and Other Features
The MediaTek Helio P22 chipset seems to be the Tecno standard for top devices this year, and we see it again in the Tecno Camon 12 Pro.
This octa core chipset is bundled with 6GB of RAM, and coupled with 64 GB ROM for daily use. However, storage can be increased with the use of microSD card.
The OS of choice is Android 9 Pie which has been adapted with the HiOS 5.5 skin slapped on top of it.
The 3500mAh battery powering this device is less than impressive. We should have expected that the more premium device will come with the bigger battery, but reverse is the case here. Plus there is no info as to whether the device supports fast charging.
