The Tecno Camon 19 series hitten the Indian shelves with several models. There are four variants from this series and all of them can be considered mid-rangers. But there is one single variant which left everyone surprised because of its stunning camera department: we are talking about the Pro variant. However, the remaining ones come with an outstanding quality price ratio, so they should be considered as well. This is a comparison between the Tecno Camon 19, the Tecno Camon 19 Pro, and the Tecno Camon 19 Neo. We decided to exclude one variant from this comparison: the 5G version, because it is very similar to the Neo and because all the other variants do not support the 5G connectivity.

Tecno Camon 19 vs Tecno Camon 19 Pro vs Tecno Camon 19 Neo

Design

The Tecno Camon 19 is definitely the best device of this trio in terms of design, at least in my opinion. I appreciate its very original rear texture which looks like a labyrinth because it makes this device unique. But you should not underestimate the Tecno Camon 19 Neo because it is another device with an original texture on the rear side. The Tecno Camon 19 Pro looks like all the other phones due to its classic gradient back, but you should note that all of these phones have circular camera modules reminding of the latest Honor devices, so even the Pro variant remains pretty interesting aesthetically.

Display

The displays found on these three devices are not so interesting. Between these panels, the hottest one is definitely the one found on the Tecno Camon 19 Pro. The reason is simple: it is the only panel in this comparison with a 120 Hz refresh rate. So you get a smoother user experience, but no changes in terms of image quality. Indeed, all of these phones feature IPS LCD displays with a 6.8-inch diagonal and a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2460 pixels. The level of detail is identical and even the image quality, the only difference is the smoothness in the Pro variant. The Tecno trio comes with mono speakers and side-mounted fingerprint readers, just like most of the affordable phones out there.

Specs & Software

The most advanced hardware department is offered by the Tecno Camon 19 Pro. It is equipped with a MediaTek Helio G96 mobile platform built at 12 nm and running at a max frequency of 2.05 GHz. It is actually more powerful not only in terms of CPU performance but even when it comes to the GPU. So gamers and power users should choose this phone instead of the other internal rivals. The chip is paired with 8 GB of RAM and up to 256 GB of native storage. The Tecno Camon 19 and the Neo variant are more or less at the same level: they are powered by the MediaTek Helio G85 mobile platform built at 12 nm and running at a max frequency of 2 GHz, they feature 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of internal storage in the most advanced memory configurations. All of these phones run Android 12 out of the box with the HiOS customization on top.

Camera

Even though it is an affordable phone with midrange-class hardware, the Tecno Camon 19 Pro has a stunning camera department which you can usually find only on top camera phones. It has a triple camera setup composed of a main 64 MP camera with OIS, a 50 MP telephoto sensor with 2x optical zoom, and a 2 MP depth sensor, as well as a 32 MP selfie snapper and a Quad-LED flash. The other devices have no way to compete with the Pro variant and they can only be considered low-end camera phones. The Tecno Camon 19 Pro comes with a good 64 MP shooter and it is better than the Neo and its 48 MP main camera.

Battery

All of these phones feature the same battery capacity: 5000 mAh. Given that the components are similar in terms of energy consumption, they last more or less the same on a single charge. But the Pro variant charges quicker thanks to 33W fast charging.

Price

All the prices of these phones are yet to be unveiled: for now, we only know that the starting price of the Pro variant roughly translates into $212/€200. Which one is the best? Naturally the Pro variant because of its high-end camera department, but for the rest, it is not so different from the other variants. Which one would you pick?

Tecno, Samsung, and Vivo vary in terms of design, features, and brand history.  But when compared to the above brands, Tecno is relatively new. The brand’s products have often focused on artistic design and cutting-edge camera technology. So let’s check out how the new Camon 19 Pro stacks up against the Samsung A53 and Vivo V23e.

TECNO CAMON 19 Pro vs Samsung A53 vs Vivo V23e

Camera and Photography

All three smartphones have a 64MP main rear camera. TECNO CAMON 19 Pro features an industry-first 64MP main camera with an RGBW high-clear crystal glass lens co-developed with Samsung. This lens sets a new standard for accurately capturing bright, clear images and portraits in less-than-optimal lighting situations. CAMON 19 Pro also stands out with its specialized 50MP portrait camera that offers an excellent portrait photography experience. 

On the other hand, Vivo V23e also comes with a great camera setup with its 8MP ultra-wide camera with a 120-degree angle and a 2MP macro camera. Samsung A53 has a 64MP + 8MP + 5MP + 5MP quad-camera setup but offers nothing special in terms of specific functions.

Selfie Cameras

Vivo V23e emerges the victor in terms of selfie camera. It features a 50MP wide-angle selfie camera that gives you crystal clear images and wider views of selfies or group selfies, making it perfect for different social scenarios. On the other hand, TECNO CAMON 19 Pro has a 32MP front camera and Samsung A53 is equipped with a 20MP front camera. 

Display

All three phones come with large screens that are great for entertainment. TECNO CAMON 19 Pro features the largest display amongst them, with a 6.8-inch display that comes with a Wide Color Gamut and a 120Hz refresh rate. Moreover, the screen is certified by TUV Rheinland. This means with CAMON 19 Pro you get a large display that minimizes blue light, thereby reducing eye strain and fatigue. Samsung A53 and Vivo V23e come with 6.5” FHD AMOLED and 6.44”FHD displays respectively. Among the three, TECNO CAMON 19 Pro stands out with its massive display. 

Design

In terms of design, all of the above brands utilize their iconic design language to target young consumers. Vivo V23e features an ultra-thin design with a glass back and a plastic frame and Samsung A53 follows the iconic Galaxy design with a matte frosted texture and brand-new colors to provide the Gen Z with not just a phone but also a fashion accessory. However, TECNO CAMON 19 Pro stands out for its stylish design, 0.98mm extremely slim bezel, and dual-ring triple-camera layout that made it a 2022 iF Design Award winner.  

Processor

TECNO CAMON 19 Pro and Vivo V23e are both powered by MediaTek Helio G96 12nm Chip, while the Samsung A53 uses Samsung Exynos 1280 5nm chip to deliver superior performance and power-saving, giving its users a better and faster experience. TECNO CAMON 19 Pro comes with 8GB RAM and 256GB internal storage, while Samsung A53 and Vivo V23e come with 6GB RAM + 128GB ROM and 8GB RAM + 128GB ROM respectively. 

Battery

Both TECNO CAMON 19 Pro and Samsung A53 have a large-capacity 5000mAh battery and support a 33W flash charge. Vivo V23e on the other hand has a smaller 4050mAh battery but supports a 44W flash charge that charges your phone faster. 

Conclusion

Based on the above points of comparison, Tecno CAMON 19 Pro could be a good choice if your focus is on night portrait photography, or if you want a bigger and smoother display and a slim and stylish design. However, if taking selfies is your priority then Vivo V23e would be a better choice since it provides a better front camera and also supports faster charging. If the brand name means more to you, then Samsung A53 is the one for you as it comes with the Samsung brand name and also performs better in the hardware. However, it falls short in other aspects and features. 

So, which one would you pick?

TECNO launches its latest CAMON 19 series at the iconic Rockefeller Centre in New York. This premium smartphone series focuses on low and dim light photography and takes night time imagery to a new level, thanks to its 64MP bright night portrait photography technology.

TECNO CAMON 19 series comes with two phones viz. CAMON 19 and 19 Pro. Both smartphones are designed to give you advanced photography options and have won the iF Design Award 2022 for outstanding product design for its slim bezel and an ingenious dual-ring triple-camera layout.

 The CAMON 19 series focuses on night time photography and imagery and comes with a 64MP main camera and an RGBW sensor/glass lens co-developed with Samsung, for accurately capturing bright, clear images and portraits in less-than-optimal lighting situations. It also features Samsung’s RGBW color filter sensor technology, which adds a white sub-pixel to the existing universal RGB configurations to enable light intake to be enhanced by 30 %. 

The CAMON 19 Pro comes with a Super night Camera and sets new standards for night time photo and videography. With an advanced Super Night Portrait mode, you can transform portraits taken in dimly lit environments into ones brimming with brightness, contrast, and sharpness, while eliminating visual noise. Moreover, the four rear flashlights, along with an advanced algorithm, recognize low-light conditions and provide the necessary light to effectively fill shadows or dark areas. Other interesting features include a 2X optical zoom lens, OIS+EIS Stabilization, Portrait mode, AI face beauty technology, etc. 

TECNO CAMON 19 Pro features a 6.8-inch FHD+ display and supports a 120Hz refresh rate. It flaunts an extremely thin bezel that gives you an expansive visual experience. Certified by the TUV Rheinland, the display minimizes blue light and provides a more comfortable viewing experience by reducing eye strain and fatigue. The back of the smartphone comes with a crystal coating that avoids fingerprint smudges and gives your phone a premium and luxurious finish.  

The CAMON 19 Pro smartphone is powered by MediaTek Helio G96 chipset and runs on a massive 5000mAh battery and supports 33W fast charging. The CAMON 19 series will be available globally from June 2022, across various regions including Africa, Latin America, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and Southern Asia. The brand has not yet specified the price as it can vary according to the regional policies and taxes. For more information on the CAMON 19 series, specs and pricing, check out www.tecno-mobile.com.

Last week, Tecno launched the Camon 19 series of smartphones consisting of four models in total. These are the Camon 19 Pro 5G, Camon 19 Pro, Camon 19 Neo, and the Camon 19. So what’s special and unique about these smartphones? Let’s find out.

Camera system (Samsung RGBW sensor)

The Camon 19 Pro 5G is the first device to debut with Samsung’s ISOCELL RGBW color filter sensor which includes a white sub-pixel to the existing universal RGB configurations on phones.

The white sub-pixel allows the sensor to capture more light while avoiding damage to the red, green, and blue sub-pixels. By capturing more light, the sensor is able to produce brighter and clearer images in well-lit as well as low-light conditions.

Tecno has attached this sensor to a 64-megapixel camera system that has Tecno’s Glass + Plastic (G+P) lens. The G + P technology replaces plastic lenses with a crystal glass lens that enhances light intake by more than 208%. These lenses match well with Samsung’s RGBW sensor providing it with ample light to create clearer images.

The back panel

The Camon 19 series features a clean-looking design with flat edges and flat rear panels. But what stands out the most in this aspect is the camera module. The Camon 19 series features a vertically aligned dual-camera island design. The top cutout houses the primary cameras while the bottom module features the auxiliary cameras. This design is quite similar to camera modules featured on Huawei and Honor smartphones.

All of the Camon 19 series except for the Camon 19 Neo have their auxiliary cameras placed horizontally. This makes the lower module appear like the eyes of a panda if you go for a color option with a white module.

Other than the camera module, the smartphone offers color options usually seen on OPPO devices. The gradient blue called Polar Blue and glossy black called Eco Black are both quite refined and give the device a premium look.

The Front Panel

There is no denying that the Camon 19 Pro 5G is a pretty-looking device with its tapered edges, flat back, clean-looking camera module, and premium colors. However, the front panel is also a standout feature of the smartphone as it is surrounded by razor-thin bezels that measure just 0.98 mm. These thin bezels surround the 6.8-inch FHD+ screen on three sides, while the chin of the smartphone is a bit more prominent.

Bezels this thin are usually seen on the most expensive flagship devices that come with an OLED panel, however, Tecno provides it on the Camon 19 Pro 5G which has an LCD screen with a 120Hz refresh rate.

Transsion Holdings subsidiary Tecno Mobile last week revealed it would hold a global launch event at the Rockefeller Centre in New York where it would unveil the Camon 19 series for the global market. As scheduled, the Tecno Camon 19 series has been announced for the global market. The series is made up of the Camon 19 Pro 5G, Camon 19 Pro, Camon 19 Neo, and the vanilla Camon 19. 

Tecno Camon 19 Pro/ Camon 19 Pro 5G

The Camon 19 Pro 5G emerges as the star of the pack as it features a 64MP RGBW sensor. This makes the device the first phone to pack the sensor manufactured by Samsung. In addition, the device is said to pack the “industry’s slimmest bezel” with a size of just 0.98 mm.

The Camon 19 Pro 5G packs a 6.8-inch LCD screen with an FHD+ resolution of 2460 x 1080 pixels and supports a 120Hz refresh rate. The 5G model is powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 810 chipset integrated with a Mali-G57 MC2 GPU. The chipset pairs with 8GB of LPDDR4x RAM. The device is available in 128GB and 256GB UFS 2.2 storage options.

The rear panel has a diamond coating that depicts 200 million stars in a bright starry sky. The panel has an anti-fingerprint coating and is delicate to touch. For photography, the rear panel houses a 64MP camera with RGBW + (G + P) Lens co-developed with Samsung. The G + P technology replaces plastic lenses with a crystal glass lens that enhances light intake by more than 208%. The other sensors include a 2MP depth sensor and a 2MP AI camera. For selfies, there is a 16MP front camera.

On its part, the non-5G Camon 19 Pro packs an Helio G96 chipset with the same memory configuration as the 5G version. The 4G model equally packs a 64MP main camera at the rear with OIS but not the RGBW lens. The main camera teams up with a 50MP portrait camera with 2x optical zoom and a 2MP portrait lens.

The two models run on Android 12 OS with XOS. They both pack a 5000mAh battery with 33W fast charging. The models come with a side-mounted fingerprint sensor a piece.

Tecno Camon 19

The vanilla Camon 19 packs a 6.8-inch LCD screen with a Full HD+ resolution of 2460 x 1080 pixels. The device is powered by an Octa-Core MediaTek Helio G85 processor with a Mali-G52 2EEMC2 GPU powering the graphics. The processor is paired with 4GB / 6GB RAM options each bundled with 128GB storage. The storage is expandable via microSD.

The Camon 19 also comes with a triple rear camera setup comprising a 64MP main shooter teaming up with a 2MP depth sensor and a 2MP AI camera. The camera comes with a Quad-LED flash. At the front, there is a 16MP camera for selfies.

The Camon 19 packs a 5,000mAh battery just like the Pro models but you only get support for 18W fast charging on the vanilla model. It equally runs on Android 12 with an overlay of Tecno’s XOS. There is a side-mounted fingerprint sensor on board as well as NFC support.

Pricing & Availability

The Tecno Camon 19 Pro 5G starts at $320 for the 8GB+256GB option. The model will be available in Eco Black and Cedar Green colour options. The 4G Camon 19 Pro comes down to $280 for the 8GB+256GB option and is available in Polar Blue, Eco Black, and Mondrian colours.
