TECNO, the global premium smartphone brand of Transsion Holdings that saw a robust growth in the year 2020, started 2021 with a bang.

Straight out of its popular camera-centric CAMON smartphone series now comes TECNO CAMON 16 Premier, a smartphone that is touted to be a game-changer in its category with unprecedented premium camera capabilities.

CAMON 16 Premier is set to transform the smartphone videography experience of its category consumers.

While last year, TECNO's CAMON smartphones changed the game of photography by initiating an era of higher camera pixels, premium AI powered Ultra Night lens and pop-up cameras, CAMON 16 Premier heralds the transition to premium smartphone videography.

TECNO CAMON 16 Premier flaunts many segment-first smartphone camera innovations such as the first and the only smartphone featuring both 64MP Quad camera and 48MP+ 8MP Dual front selfie cameras setting off a hot trend in the industry.

Not only this, it boasts of unique video shooting functions such as Super Hybrid Image Stabilisation to capture shake-free videos, images, and record 4K Videos at 30fps.

Super Slow Motion videos at 960 FPS as well as Professional 1080P Polar Night Lens clearly capture crisp, no-noise videos in low-lit environments.

The 2K+ ultra-clear resolution complemented with the 90Hz Fluid Screen refresh rate allows for smoother scrolling, greater image stability and premier smartphone usage experience.

The device gets a 4500 mAh battery with 18w fast charge. It provides a standby time of 28 days, calling time of 42 hours and music playback of 140 hours.

It has a USB Type C port with heat pipe cooling that prevents the smartphone from heating up and has a full charging time of 129 hours.
