Tecno Camon 19 Neo
The Tecno Camon 19 NEO price in Kenya is Ksh 26,000. Camon 19 NEO is powered by a MediaTek Helio G85 (12nm) chipset. The Camon 18P is equipped with 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB storage as standard. This phone borrows so much design inspiration from the Tecno Camon 17P smartphone.
The Tecno Camon 19 Neo brings competitive prices to significantly cheaper options, with a budget performance device, an immersive IPS LCD screen, a primary 48MP camera, 18W fast charging, and a massive battery at 5000mAh, and a refreshed MediaTek Helio G85 chipset. It comes off as a beautiful yet budget device, with a promise of a great value proposition.
Design
The Tecno Camon 19 Neo comes with a 6.8-inch IPS LCD screen with a center punch-hole design for the selfie camera. It’s a massive screen, hardly a one-handed operation, with a screen-to-body ratio of 88.6%. It has an aspect ratio of 20:9 and supports HDR which makes it an absolute delight to consume media with. It has a plastic frame and back and a shutter-proof front panel. It is very bright and vivid, peaking at 550 nits. It’s rated not for dust and splash protection, which means it’s not necessarily waterproof. It has a headphone jack, fortunately. It has a physical fast fingerprint sensor, conveniently placed on its side, integrated into the power button. It has a mono speaker whose sound is surprisingly clear when playing media.
Performance
The Tecno Camon 19 Neo brings in the heat with the latest generation budget MediaTek Helio G85 chipset, making it quite fast and fairly competent for gaming. It has a Cortex Octa-core CPU paired with a Mali G52 MC2 GPU, with storage options of 4/6 GB for RAM & 128 GB for ROM. The expandable memory option is not yet specified. It’s running the latest Android 11 with a HIOS skin on top, the performance feels quite fast and premium. HIOS is rich in customizations, numerous themes, and alterations. No lags or slow transitions on this one. Everything feels snappy, fluid, and rich in color.
Cameras
The Tecno Camon 19 Neo has a triple camera arrangement on the back. It comes with a decent 48 MP primary sensor, with 8 MP picture binning for those excellent daylight photos. It has no ultra-wide but an extra 2MP depth sensor for bokeh/portrait effect and an unspecified QVGA lens. The video can support up to 1080p video at 30 fps, with HDR support. The selfie camera is a generous 32MP wide sensor, capable of 1080p video at 30fps. The selfies are great and well-lit.
Other features
We can’t fail to mention the charging speeds in the Tecno Camon 19 Neo. At 18W fast charging, the phone can get fully charged in about an hour. That’s passable by all standards. That is in addition to the fact that it also comes with a massive Li-Po 5000mAh non-removable battery. This should be more than enough even for the power user. The main concession would be that there is no wireless charging here. It supports NFC for contactless paying. Eco Black, Sea Salt White, and Digital Green.
Similarly, priced phones would include Infinix Note 11 Pro, Oppo A55, and the Samsung Galaxy A22. The main talking points would be the premium design and the huge battery. Also with the fast charging, it offers an experience similar to much more premium mid-range gadgets.
For the price, it’s a great device. Superior design, nice screen, and a very huge battery. Seeing that it comes with a midrange Mediatek chipset, the performance is bound to feel like that of a premium device, as the performance has actually improved.
