TECNO‘s camera-focused midrangers are finally here. Preorders for the TECNO CAMON 50 Series, which includes the CAMON 50 4G and CAMON 50 Ultra 5G, are now live in the Philippines, giving early buyers an opportunity to purchase the brand’s newest offerings at discounted prices alongside a bunch of perks.

If you are planning an upgrade, you have until April 17 to preorder. A reasonable downpayment of ₱500 (around $8) is all it takes, which immediately qualifies you for up to ₱2,000 ($33) in early-bird discounts.

TECNO CAMON 50 Series pricing in the Philippines

Interestingly, the company has deliberately kept official suggested retail prices off its social media channels, choosing instead to spotlight the promotional rates. Here’s exactly what you will pay during the preorder window:

• TECNO CAMON 50 4G (8GB RAM/256GB storage): ₱12,999 ($216)
• TECNO CAMON 50 Ultra 5G (8GB RAM/256GB storage): ₱18,499 ($307)
• TECNO CAMON 50 Ultra 5G (12GB RAM/256GB storage): ₱20,499 ($340)
• TECNO CAMON 50 Ultra 5G (12GB RAM/512GB storage): ₱23,999 ($398)

If you happen to check the Transsion sub-brand’s official Shopee storefront, you might spot the top-tier 12GB/512GB Ultra variant sitting at ₱31,499 ($523). Don’t be confused; we’re fairly certain that figure is just a bloated placeholder rather than the final sticker price.

Additionally, jumping in early nets you accessories depending on your chosen model. If you opt for the baseline TECNO CAMON 50 4G at ₱12,999 ($216), you’ll walk away with a free pair of TECNO FreeHear 2 earbuds valued at ₱2,999 ($50).

Stepping up to the CAMON 50 Ultra 5G in either of the lower-storage configurations — specifically the ₱18,499 ($307) and ₱20,499 ($340) versions — swaps the audio gear for a TECNO Watch Neo smartwatch worth ₱3,499 ($58).

However, if you decide to go all out and opt for the maxed-out 12GB/512GB kit for ₱23,999 ($398), TECNO will bundle both the Watch Neo and the FreeHear 2 into your purchase.

On top of that, every single preorder includes a universal set of benefits regardless of the price point. Buyers will receive a TECNO CAMON gift box worth ₱1,999 ($33), a two-year warranty coverage (plus a 60-day replacement window for valid claims), a one-year subscription to MovieBox Premium, and three years of 50GB cloud storage. Capping things off, each purchase serves as a raffle entry for a chance to win an out-of-the-country trip for two.

TECNO Mobile Philippines’ announcement

TECNO CAMON 50 4G

Don’t let the lack of 5G connectivity fool you; the base model is still pretty solid. It packs a 6.78-inch AMOLED display pushing a 144Hz refresh rate. Powering the whole experience is a MediaTek Helio G200 Ultimate chipset. While it skips the 5G connectivity of its Ultra sibling, this 6nm silicon is a proven workhorse, giving you more than enough power for daily multitasking, heavy doom-scrolling, and a healthy dose of casual gaming.

For imaging, the rear module features a 50-megapixel main camera equipped with optical image stabilization (OIS), backed by an 8-megapixel ultra-wide. Selfies are handled by a 32-megapixel front-facing shooter. Keeping the lights on is a 6,500mAh battery that easily guarantees all-day use.

TECNO CAMON 50 Ultra 5G

The TECNO CAMON 50 Ultra 5G upgrades the visual experience with a 6.78-inch curved 1.5K AMOLED panel. It also boasts industrial-grade toughness, carrying IP68, IP69, and IP69K ratings for superior dust and water resistance. Inside, a 4nm MediaTek Dimensity 7400 Ultimate processor runs the show.

Of course, photography is where this smartphone truly shines. The primary camera uses a 50-megapixel Sony LYT-700C sensor with OIS, alongside an 8-megapixel ultra-wide and a 50-megapixel telephoto capable of up to 60x digital zoom. The selfie shooter gets bumped to 50 megapixels, too.
