TECNO Camon 40 series takes some serious snaps

Forget blurry memories.

TECNO just dropped its CAMON 40 series — a trio of smartphones (Premier 5G, Pro 5G and the standard CAMON 40) that are less about megapixels and more about nailing that perfect, fleeting moment.

You may think of it as having a super-powered eye in your pocket, if we go by the specifications, and also thanks to some serious AI smarts baked right in.

The headline grabber? One-Tap FlashSnap. This isn’t your grandma’s burst mode. Especially on the Premier and Pro 5G models, this tech is designed to freeze action faster than you can blink (seriously, the Premier’s shutter is 2600 times quicker!).

Whether it’s your dog mid-leap or a street performer’s dazzling move, the CAMON 40 promises crisp, in-focus shots where other phones would just give you a motion blur mess.

The Premier 5G goes all-in on low-light mastery with its 50MP Sony LYT-701 Ultra Night Camera, claiming to soak up a whopping 56 percent more light than the competition. That means those atmospheric evening shots might finally look as good as they did in your head.

Plus, it’s not skimping on lenses, packing a 50MP ultra-wide, a 50MP periscope telephoto, and even a 50MP autofocus front camera for seriously detailed selfies. And for the vloggers out there, it can shoot 4K 60fps Ultra Night Video.

But the real mic drop? The CAMON 40 Pro 5G snagged the No.1 spot in DXOMARK’s global photography ranking for phones under $600, boasting a score of 138. It’s also the first phone this year to grab their “Smart Choice” label. That’s some serious bragging rights.
