Last year, TECNO released a total of four smartphones in the TECNO CAMON 16 series. These devices are TECNO CAMON 16, TECNO CAMON 16 Pro, TECNO CAMON 16 Premier, and TECNO CAMON 16 S. The brand is expected to launch the successor series TECNO CAMON 17 this year. Ahead of its official announcement, one of the models in the lineup has been spotted on Google Play Console revealing some of its specs as well as design.
The standard TECNO CAMON 17 has been listed on Google Play Console. The listing exposes the phone to arrive with a punch-hole (top left corner) display with a resolution of 720 x 1600 pixels (HD+) and 320 DPI.
Further, the handset will be powered by a MediaTek Helio G70 SoC coupled with 6GB RAM. As for software, it will run Android 11 out of the box. We can expect this smartphone to come with the brand’s HIOS Android skin.
As per the listing, this device will come with model number CG6j. Turns out we have already reported on this phone when it was certified by FCC in February.
According to Federal Communications Commission, the upcoming TECNO CAMON 17 will have a vertically-aligned camera setup on the back, a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor, and a 3.5mm headphone.
We mentioned it to be backed by a 4,900mAh battery with support for 18W fast charging in our previous coverage. But now, we think that this phone could have a 5,000mAh battery (typical) because 4,900mAh could be the battery’s rated capacity.
Last but not least, the TECNO CAMON 17 will measure 165 x 76 x 8mm in dimensions.
