Tecno has just launched Camon 18i in select African markets. It is the latest addition to the company’s Camon 18 series, which consists of Camon 18 Premier. Here, we will be discussing the key specs, features, expected price, and availability of Tecno Camon 18i in Nepal.
Tecno Camon 18i Overview:
The Camon 18i is the smaller and cheaper option in the Camon 18 series. Still, it’s not that difficult to see that it’s heavily based on Tecno Camon 17. The phone is yet to be listed on the company’s official site but it is already available in select markets like Kenya and Nigeria.
Design and Display
Like the Camon 17, the 18i sports a 6.6-inch LCD panel with an HD+ resolution of 1600 x 720 pixels. The display supports a 90Hz refresh rate and features a punch-hole cutout for the 8MP selfie camera.
All the buttons are on the right side of the phone. At the back, there is a left-aligned rectangular camera bump and a physical fingerprint scanner.
Performance and Memory
Under the hood, Tecno Camon 18i packs MediaTek Helio G85 chipset. The chip is fabricated using TSMC’s 12nm FinFET process and features two Cortex-A75 (@2GHz) and six Cortex-A55 (@1.8GHz) cores.
As for memory, you get 4GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage. Its SIM tray can also hold a microSD card for storage expansion.
