Tecno CAMON 17 Review: The Compromise, Ridiculous! by Marvel6233(m): 3:10pm On May 13, 2021
Area afa., I don show again. But this time I de here with the latest Tecno Camon 17. I know some of you would love to buy one of the Camon 17 series ( Tecno Camon 17, Camon 17P and Camon 17 Pro) for yourself.

Since I've been using the Tecno Camon 17, I've noticed some ish. But that's not to forget some cool features the smartphone offers too. The Camon 17 is powered by MediaTek helio G85 chipset/Processor which is slightly better in CPU and GPU than the Helio G80.

So my gaming experience with the smartphone was cool at first. However, the more applications I installed on the device, the slower it gets. Reason is because of the 4GB RAM size. I wonder what stopped Tecno wey make the Camon 17 nor get 6GB RAM self.

Also, the display is 90Hz refresh rate enabled which is cool. In short, I don't think I can still use any smartphone with no high refresh rate these days. Lol.. 90Hz, 120Hz RR rocks. however, the screen resolution is 720p which is wack compared to the 74k price.

The 48MP camera in day time Is good but not incredible. While at night, the Super night mode is a no no no...

You know what? MY Camon 17 Pro Review video is dropping soon. However, with the little time I've spent using it so far, I fit tell you say, if money is not an issue. Abeg, buy the Pro. The value there is insane.

Well, if you have any questions. Drop am below I go answer una.
