Established on our research, we’ve noticed that Pakistan consumers really enjoy video shooting so we are especially concerned about video stability, that’s why we have launched our most advanced stabilized gimbal camera technology in Camon 18, with huge investment in manpower and resources during the research and development period of this module that finally brings the anti-shaking or technically speaking, the Gimbal technology alive.

CAMON 18 series is all set to launch, what should customers expect from the new device?

As you know, the CAMON series is all about the camera. This series was designed to bring high performance and professional photography with an elegant design. TECNO is soon launching the CAMON 18 which will be a breakthrough for the professional mobile photography experience.

TECNO introduced TAIVOS Lab (short for TECNO AI Vision Optimization Solution Lab), focusing on innovative and cutting-edge technological breakthroughs for mobile imaging technology, along with 2 in-house R&D centers, and over 1,600 R&D staff members globally. This technology has been the core feature for all CAMON phones.

CAMON 18 will bring the best of the CAMON series so far, such as TAIVOS Technology, Super Night Mode, and Selfie Mode with an all-new Ultra-Steady Gimbal Camera, a 60X Hybrid Zoom, and even more, enhanced AI features for achieving professional videography.
