TECNO CAMON 12 Air Features (Preview)
Starting with the rear camera, the TECNO phone sports three cameras, a 16-megapixel lens (main), and 5 megapixels (telephoto) and 2 megapixels (depth). The 16MP main lens produces razor-sharp photos even in low light condition!
The 2-megapixel camera is used to measure depth. This allows you to add a depth of field effect to your photos, blurring the background and highlighting the subject! While the 5 megapixels telephoto is great for bringing distant scenes and subjects closer. The front of the device is the 8-megapixel front camera hidden in the cut hole on the top left corner of the screen, the camera which is perfect for taking selfies and video calling!
If we look at the screen of this TECNO, you would almost forget that it is a budget smartphone. The screen is 6.55 inches in size and delivers beautiful sharp images with nice viewing angles all thanks to the HD+ display. Browsing the web, surfing social media or watching a Netflix series is all possible on the display of this CAMON 12 Air!
TECNO has opted for the MediaTek Helio P22 processor with all CAMON 12 series including this device. This chip is normally found in budget smartphones and is very suitable for everyday apps. Also, the P22 is economical with the battery!

The fingerprint scanner can be found on the back of this TECNO as oppose the under-display type equipped on the CAMON 12 Pro. This physical sensor registers your fingerprint at lightning speed, and unlocks your smartphone in a fraction of a second!
