Tecno has launched four new models of its Camon lineup: including the vanilla Camon 20, Camon 20 Pro and its 5G variant, and the top-of-the-line, Camon 20 Premier 5G.
The four models share the same, eccentric design aesthetics and have the same 6.67-inch AMOLED displays with 120Hz refresh rate and under-display fingerprint sensor.
All have Android 13 based HiOS 13.
Their main differences lie in the chipsets and camera department.
