TECNO brings ultra-steady, ultra-clear Gimbal Camera Phone –the CAMON 18 Premier to PH

TECNO, a rising superstar as a global smartphone brand of the new generation, releases its newest CAMON 18 series in the Philippines — CAMON 18 Premier, CAMON18P and CAMON18, pushing the boundaries of what it means to be a professional camera smartphone in anti-shaking and clarity. 


The new CAMON 18 Premier brings together the best of the CAMON series, such as TAIVOS, Super Night Mode, and Selfie Mode, and combines this with an all new Ultra-steady Gimbal Camera, a 60X Hybrid Zoom, and even more enhanced AI features for achieving professional videography. 

CAMON 18 features an AMOLED screen with 120hz refresh rate that makes every touch experience faster and smoother. Furthermore, TECNO’s CAMON 18 Premier with Low Blue Light Certification from TÜV Rheinland will provide consumers with the best eye care possible. Powered by the latest MediaTek Helio G96 chip, and supported by a redesigned HiOS 8.0 the CAMON series is able to showcase what it does best, exceeding expectations once again to produce the best photos and videos that technology can offer. 


“We always seek for breakthroughs of product and technology to inspire our consumers to unlock the world of possibilities. The digital revolution with the rise of new generations brings the latest trend of filmmaking through a smartphone device. The CAMON 18 Premier is the first TECNO product to take Ultra-steady Gimbal Camera technology innovations to create brand-new experiences for users. With “Stop At Nothing” as TECNO’s brand spirit, we aim to continually make breakthroughs in product and design innovations, as we have delivered through CAMON 18 Series.” said Stephan Ha, General Manager of TECNO.


Ultra-steady Gimbal Camera, a Smart “Shaking” Lens to Cancel External Shaking Motions
Users of all levels, from casual users to professional content creators, will have a new tool to achieve that perfect video. The CAMON 18 Premier is now equipped with unparalleled anti-shaking technology, at 300% the effectiveness of other smartphones without anti-shaking technology. When combined with a wide angle lens, the CAMON 18 Premier is capable of 109° wide-angle shooting, allowing users to create truly beautiful videos anywhere, while doing anything, with sublime clarity.  


The CAMON 18 Premier’s rear camera follows the meticulously ratioed design philosophy that enhances the three lenses — a 64MP main camera, a 12MP Ultra-steady Gimbal Camera with widened frame, and a 8MP periscope lens, all housed within a new elegant glowing and ceramic backing and a cleaner, tougher flat surface design. 


Ultra-clear 60X Hyper Zoom,  See Further Than the Eyes Can PerceiveCAMON 18 Premier uses a 5X periscope lens and Galileo algorithm engine, which accesses multiple frames and gathers pixel information to enhance resolution and clarity. By combining the 5X optical zoom capability with up to 12X AI algorithm-based digital zoom, users can achieve an incredible 60X hybrid zoom, and travel as far as the moon in photography, elevating smartphone astrophotography to spectacular levels.


Master the Art of Self-Portrait with the 32 MP AI Selfie Camera

TECNO embodies their “Stop At Nothing” maxim with the 32 MP front camera, once again exceeding expectations with crystal-clear clarity. The powerhouse camera comes with a more compact and convenient UI, incorporating clear-cut function buttons and new intelligent gender-based identification. The beauty function has increased inclusivity for male features, having introduced beard and eyebrow enhancement. Users can now utilize the Portrait Light Effect Mode to lighten, darken, change, or remove the background completely, bringing the world of photo-editing software concisely to the palms of their hands.


Stylish & Exquisite Design from Color to Texture

The CAMON 18 series adopts natural and flexible design language, and interprets flowers and trees, natural breezes and drizzle in the product design. At the same time, it advocates the most dynamic and energetic elegant fashion design sense, which is perfectly integrated into the urban language. The ceramic elements are added to our products to bring a new aesthetic perspective to the CAMON series, and give the products more imagination.


Unleash Smoother, Faster Performance with the Newest MediaTek Helio G96 Chip and 33W Flash Charging
Equipped with a MediaTek Helio G96 CPU with eight cores, 8GB of RAM, and 256GB of storage, the CAMON 18 Premier possesses multi-tasking abilities like never before, empowering seamless integration of multiple apps. This incredible processing power, coupled with a 4750 mAh battery, comprehensively enhances user experience, resulting in a system with the ability to photograph, videograph, network, and run games with remarkable smoothness. With TÜV Rheinland certifications for Safe Fast-charge Systems, CAMON 18 Premier supports 33W Flash Charging, attaining a 50% charge in just 20 minutes and a full charge in 65 minutes. 


Live Vividly with the 120Hz Refresh Rate and TÜV Rheinland Certified Display for Eye Protection on your CAMON 18 Premier 
The 6.7” AMOLED display (1080×2400) has a full HD resolution with up to 550 nit brightness and 100% NTSC for maximum visual satisfaction. The display boasts a 120Hz refresh rate; this unprecedented high refresh rate in a phone promises higher display fluidity and a more coherent and intuitive experience — the scroll is smoother and touch feedback is more sensitive. Moreover, as a TÜV Rheinland Low Blue Light (Hardware Solution) certified product, the CAMON 18 Premier can reduce blue light to provide comfort for your eyes all day long, and reduce overall power consumption. 


Explore Ahead with the Latest HiOS 8.0 For all the stunning hardware, TECNO’s software pulls its own weight. The latest HiOS 8.0 features Za-Hooc2.0 high-security privacy solutions, relying on leading data security capabilities and privacy protection technology to build a strong and safe privacy ecosystem that protects both hardware and software data.
