Tecno Camon 40 Unboxing, Review Philippines

 It took us some years of inquiry and only contended to those hands-on videos in public events and finally, our first time to unpack and drop some verdict a Tecno smartphone. 

It is the Tecno Camon 40 which you can check our unboxing and first impressions video here 


It was my first time to encounter the Helio G100 Ultimate SoC and HiOS based on Android 15. I never had any experiences and ignoring on those bashing on other variants of Helio G100 but it's Ultimate version and the custom OS satisfied me in a way mostly in multitasking and everyday tasks including calls, texts, mobile data and more. WiFi, Bluetooth and GPS were very good too in the number of weeks that I brought this one as my main driver.




On display, the dynamic mode was one of the most pleasing that I experienced on my eyes especially for reading emails, games and almost endless scrolling




The control center does not have labels on the icon which might be a problem for those people who might be just new in the world of smartphones but it will not be an issue for those who are coming from another smartphone. 

On Antutu, Tecno Camon 40 scored at over 440,000 in dynamic display activated. Seven out of nine sensors are visible on this phone.



Tecno Camon 40 has 5,200 mAh battery which is over a day for me in heavy usage including gaming which had no problems in terms of ping and on max level in MLBB. Charging it with 45 watt charger got the phone from zero to 100 percent battery in around an hour.

On camera, I can say that I had an almost perfect experience on photos than on videos compared to the phone series said that Camon is more focused on camera capabilities. For it's asking price, the photos were very good on color accuracy, easy to zoom (unlike on some phones from a V brand based on my past reviews) and image processing speed either on well lit or challenging low light environments. The front camera is more than enough for social media. The phone can shoot up to 2K 30 fps video but I recommend to use up to FHD 60 fps as it is more than acceptable for high quality video uploaded. One challenge for me though on the video segment was there were some times that it defocusing on environments that it has LED screens. It was a bit of a struggle for me when I covered a Grand Finals of an esports tournament.

On the strengths, I love the Tecno Camon 40's display,. overall design, UI, most on the connectivity, photo capabilities of the camera , speakers and battery. On the weaknesses, definitely the lack of 5G for its asking price as there are already of options near or on the same price range and the might-be a miss sometimes on the defocusing of the video that I experienced for a number of times. At the time that I am using this, the price is quite ok as there is another phone with the same SoC at the same SRP but a few days ago, they released the Pova 7 at Php 2,000 to Php 3,000 more affordable plus 1,800 mAh more battery. 

For us, Tecno Camon 40 is 3.75 out of 5.
