Some of you may not have even heard of Tecno Mobile and it is quite understandable. In fact, it is not a big name in the Nepalese smartphone market. However, it has been thriving in the African market since it stopped its operation in the Asian market back in 2008. Let’s have a look at the specs, features, availability, and price of Tecno Camon 15 and Camon 15 Pro in Nepal.
Tecno Camon 15 Overview
Officially launched on 20th February 2020, the Tecno Camon 15 smartphone comes with a punch-hole display. In fact, it is hard not to notice the cutout at the top left corner of this device. The smartphone features a 6.6-inch display which Tecno calls “Perfect Fullview Display”. And, it has a resolution of 720 x 1600 pixels.
On the rear, buyers will notice gradient designs and a rectangular camera bump. The camera bump houses a quad-camera setup. Also, you get the fingerprint scanner at the back.
Talking about the camera, it packs a 48MP primary camera, a second Ultra-night TAVOIS lens, a 2MP macro lens, and a depth sensor. The lens on the Tecno Camon 15 has the ability to combine four pixels into a 1.6micron pixel to obtain high-quality images. Furthermore, this night-time camera phone supports autofocus and has four LED flashes!.
Meanwhile, the selfie shooter is a 16MP camera that supports HDR. On the front, you will also see a dual-LED flashlight that helps to take better pictures in dark.
The smartphone runs on an octa-core Helio P22 chipset. It comes with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage, which is expandable. And, the device runs on Android 10 with HiOS 6.0 on top.
Under the hood, the Camon 15 packs a powerful 5000mAh battery. Sadly, that’s about it as it doesn’t support fast charging or reverse charging.
Tecno Camon 15 Pro Overview
Just like the Camon 15, the Tecno Camon 15 Pro also has a 6.6-inch Perfect Fullview Display. However, the immediate upgrade, if you wish to call it, would be the pop-up selfie camera. With this, the smartphone gains a screen to body ratio of 84.3 percent.
There’s a little change in the back as far as the textures and camera module are concerned. The camera module is now vertical that houses the quad-camera setup and LED flash.
On the Tecno Camon 15 Pro, the company has gone with an ultra-wide-angle camera with 115-deg FOV by replacing the depth sensor on the Camon 15. The rest is the same as it also has the 48MP primary camera and the TAVOIS lens.
On the front, you will notice a pop-up mechanism for the 32MP selfie camera. This means that the selfie shooter remains hidden on this one.
Contrary to the non-Pro version, the device comes with an octa-core Helio P35 processor. The storage also gets an update as it has 6GB of RAM coupled with 128GB of internal storage.
Tecno has somehow decided to hold back on the battery capacity with the Camon 15 Pro. It gets a 4000mAh battery and still, no fast-charging. The operating system is the same on this device as well.

The specs and features seem decent for a budget price but the Tecno Camon series could’ve gained the upper-edge with fast charging support. However, the attractive design and camera quality look promising.
