Tecno Camon 17 Pro in for review

06 June 2021
With all the basics included in the box and some fancier features like a 48 MP selfie cam, 90 Hz display and 25W fast charging, this is one of the best phones Tecno has built yet.

I love Samsung A52. Despite Tecno and Infinix trying thier best, Samsung remains the senior major general of the Android phone industry.

    It Cost $310 for the camon 17pro, $328 for A52 then $423 for redmi note 10pro in my country Ghana. So am wondering how ppl are saying the prices are same.

      Hemedans, 07 Jun 2021Yes people can afford them, but it doesn't mean they h... moreYour price point of view is from the international markets and not the local African market. When you see a Samsung phone being proclaimed to be about 300$ here on gsm arena, just know that in the actual African authorised Samsung stores its sold for at least 400$. So even when u try to compare the camon 16 with the A32 i can assure you that the Samsung is way more expensive.

        Why do you say its not better than the 16 premier when its literally better in obvious aspects like the chipset and storage capacity.

These guy have more money to advertise than Samsung and big brands here in Africa. You will find their ads everywhere in Billiboards and at City Centre they paint buildings with their logo.

            Rbx, 07 Jun 2021Infinix Note 10 Pro and Camon 17 Pro are competing with Sam... more1. Redmi note 10 pro is cheaper, both Camon 17 pro and A52 cost more than $300.

            2. RN10P AND A52 has better amoled screen compare to cheap lcd you find in Tecno phones.

            3. A52 has better ip ratings for water resistant and even RN10P has ip53 rating, you won't find any in Tecno,

            4. Better camera ni A52 with Ois, RN10P has better sensor, expect those Blury and artifical images from Tecno. Even Gsmarena did prove they put fake camera to increase number of camera.

            5.you will Get 3 to 4 years of updates from Samsung, probably 2 years From Xiaomi, but Tecno you won't get feature updates, expect malware in daily Basis, this was proved even by Big tech site

            No way for this phone to have same value as RN10P and Samsung galaxy A52.

                  It cost as much as an Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 Pro but with every component worse and lower future proof in hardware and software. And more expensive that the more valuable Poco X3 Pro for they money you pay.

                  So reading the article, it seems a clearly paid one with few Tecno sellers trying to sell few one to some technology ignorant but without luck watching the low interest and comments.

                    Upcoming Phantom 10 (or Phantom X) will compete with Samsung A72.
                    I've seen a lot of comparisons tests on YouTube between the Camom 17 Pro and its Xiaomi and Samsung competitors, believe it or not its processor outshines them in speed tests, even on the pictures and videos comparisons it doesn't have much to envy them.
                    Samsung A21, 32 are much to be compared to Tecno Spark and Pova.

                            Camon 16 had G80 for more than $200, it was priced same as galaxy A32, with 720p display.

                            Name any phone from Tecno or infinix which give better value.
