The Tecno Camon 18 is priced at Rs 14,999 in India for the sole 4GB/128GB variant. It will be available across online and retail channels starting December 27. Tecno is also offering the Buds 2 true wireless earbuds on purchase of the Camon 18. The phone is a good launch by the brand and also a good option for all gaming enthusiasts.

The Tecno Camon 18 is powered by a MediaTek Helio G85 SoC paired with 4GB of RAM. The phone also comes with 128GB of storage and can expand the RAM by up to 7GB by utilising unused storage. The handset packs a 5,000 mAh battery and comes with 18W fast-charging support.

The brand has made a good choice in terms of choosing the MediaTek Helio G85 processor and with the large RAM, one can expect a good performance. The further added features of the phone also ensure a good performance especially in terms of gaming.

The Tecno Camon 18 sports a 6.8-inch FHD+ LCD screen with a peak brightness of 500 nits. The display also features a pixel density of 396 PPI and a 120Hz touch sampling rate. The combination of the MediaTek processor along with the good display ensures a good user experience.
