Tecno Camon 17P review: Great camera for less? [Video]

In Phones by Ramon Lopez2 Comments

Tecno recently announced the Camon 17 series in the Philippines, with the Tecno Camon 17 Pro and Tecno Camon 17P in tow and Chris Evans — who is most famous for playing the role of Steve Rogers, aka Captain America, in the Marvel Cinematic Universe — promoting the lineup.

We have the 17P, which is now available in the Philippines with a suggested retail price of P8,490 (about $175 converted) for 6GB of RAM and 128GB of expandable storage. Not a bad deal, considering the Tecno Camon 17P boasts a 64-megapixel main camera and a 16-megapixel shooter for selfies in a punch hole at the top center of the display.

The rest of the hardware is equally good, with the Camon 17P sporting a 6.8-inch FHD+ LCD screen, a MediaTek Helio G85 chipset, and a 5,000mAh battery that supports 18-watt fast charging over a USB-C port.
