TECNO recently launched CAMON 17 series and we finally got hands on it for this first impressions review of the CAMON 17 Pro. Before we go any further, I want to note that this truly the clearest selfie Camera I have seen on the market.
The social phenomenon of selfies has been gaining serious momentum in recent years and has become not only an artistic gesture for photo lovers but it has also reached the center stage of how people express themselves.
The impact of COVID-19 in our lives has not only deepened the relevance of selfies but has become even more important because of its convenience but also one of the safest ways people use it to keep in touch with loved ones.
The CAMON 17 Pro is the first smartphone on the market to put this behavior into focus as users nowadays in the post-epidemic era associate selfie with their identity. TECNO constantly upgrades product design and quality, which is increasingly elegant, bold, powerful, durable and constantly pioneering in the smartphone industry. TECNO CAMON 17 series are such a brand-new product in the post-epidemic era.
Here is everything you need to know about the 48MP selfie camera of the CAMON 17 PRO – The 48 MP Selfie camera can capture the beautiful details in an elegant way for the user with an added professional finish. The embedded artificial intelligence (AI) technology can elevate selfie through accurate algorithms which can identify features based on gender and also adjust the environment light.
You get a 64MP quad-camera setup at the back which also includes a 2MP bokeh camera, 8MP wide-angle camera and a 2MP monochrome sensor. In the top bezel, we have dual-LED flash. TECNO embedded its AI technology to enhance its photography for both its front-facing and main cameras.

There are now customizable video templates (travel, sport, street, family and more) to choose from together with a variety of transitions, camera movements and music choices in the Film mode.

There’s also video bokeh mode, video beauty mode, ultra-steady mode (capped at 1080p at 30fps), slow motion (capped at 960fps) and Time-lapse at 1080p at 30fps. If you are a creative/shutterbug or like posting videos on social media, then you’ll love shooting with the TECNO Camon 17 Pro.
Both the selfie Camera and the Camera have been improved with AI technology to produce Very clear images even in low light conditions.
Not to forget, portrait mode is now in both the selfie and back Camera to enable customers stand out when taking photos.
The wide selection of user-friendly tools of the TECNO CAMON 17 Pro help users personalize the images and videos they want to portray. Users can now hide dark circles, perfect body shape, and do a lot more to fine-tune beauty as they please.
