People will always talk

Dembali:
Lol, Why do you say so?? There are Lots of Positive Personal Experience.

well, your opinion does not matter

adebayooye:
If the pictures of yourself were taken with the C9, then there's nothing special about the camera.... in my own opinion...

Are u sure it's just d camera

Darkseid:
Tecno J8 is far better than this C9 in every way except maybe in the front camera.

Wow, not bad

omoalajah:
The past few weeks have been full of news and praises for TECNO's new phone The Camon C9. The mobile phone even had a tour #C9Ja that disturbed my Twitter Timeline and the picture shots from the phone aroused my need to have one.

According to my needs and definition for the mobile device, I would regard it as a mid-range camera-centric phone, designed for someone like me who shops around online, read reviews, sought informations rather than just heading to Ikeja's Computer Village and picking a device off the shelf with the recommendation of a desperate sales marketer.

This is the first time I will be writing a review of a device, so permit me to only talk on those key features that every buyer is concerned with.

*The Design and Screen
*Performance
*Camera
*Battery Life
*Price

The Design and Screen:

The Camon C9 shares many design traits with other TECNO phones – all of which have been affordable. The phone is mostly plastic, but an unusual textured rear sets it apart from the usual plastic battery covers. 
It features the brand name 'TECNO' and 'Camon' logo on the back. The Speaker also sits at the back. In my opinion, the phone looks good for its price.

Front-on, the look is simple, no physical key, and you have the 13MP Selfie Camera smiling at you.  

The phone also comes with a screen protector, SIM removal tool and pouch as a free gift.

The memory card slot sits beneath the battery cover and, as is the case there are two SIM slots. They're of the micro-SIM variety. The 3000 MaH Battery is not user replaceable.


The Display is a 5.5" Full HD IPS Touchscreen.


Performance :

The phone runs on Tecno's Custom HiOS Based on Android's 6.0 Marshmallow.
Performance is great I must confess. I played up to 10 matches on FIFA16, Asphalt, and Contract Killer and didn't experience any lag whatsoever. Wow. Impressive.

The phone has an internal storage of 16GB, only about 10GB available to use because the system apps had used up to 5.81GB. So you might need to use a memory card to increase the memory.

The RAM is 2GB and it allows for fast multitasking. About 40% of RAM used on startup.

As a mid range phone, the phone doesn’t boost of many extra features like the fingerprint on the Phantom 5, but an Iris Scanner Lock was featured even though i didn't use it, I had read in some posts it's unstable. I don't need it though because I hardly lock my phones.


Battery:

The phone has a 3000 mAh Battery. (Small for me) but performs decently probably because of the optimised HiOS.


Fully Charged, 100% from 10am. Reading of a PDF file with my screen on always lasted me up to 5pm with 23% of Battery left which could give me more 4hrs on Ultra mode (Calling, Texts)
I think that's decent. The battery charges fast too. Full charge in about 2 hours 30 minutes even though the charger output was 1.2v . Using a 2.1V Charger should speed the charging process up.


Camera:
This is the top reason I purchased this phone and it didn't disappoint.! With 13 MP Rear and Front Camera, I didn't expect less. Selfie Shots were great even in low light conditions beause of the soft front flash! My selfies doesn't look like my regular selfies because of the placement of the Selfie camera. It was placed at the center top of the screen so it allows for a wider angle capturing. The Rear Camera was great too with a LED Flash. Performed well in low light and bright light conditions. You will find attached pictures taken with it.

As soon as I go out I will take better pictures and upload.

Price: At #50000 I got myself a great phone.

The first three pictures was taken with an HTC One M8.

You might be right

sorextee:

Dannybrainz:

Penaldo:
Too many attention seekers... BTW this thread is only doing free publicity for tecno. I wish the claim of me being a tecno staff is true.

See dis one again

No one would recommend an L8 over S7 and if anyone does, they should have very good reasons to

Elxandre:
Even if you are a marketer, should you recommend an L8 for someone over Galaxy S7

That's what happens on Nairaland.

They even registered on the same day.
I believe they are bots.

Nice

ibibiofirstlady:
I just noticed you. have I told you to buy any tecno phone? I fell in love with tecno and I use Boom J8 which I cherish. As for L8 plus I am a fan because of the battery life. I am also a fan of the new C9 due to sharp camera quality but who says I can have them all? That won't stop me from talking about the brand nor the products.

Wait for it

Dannybrainz:
Interesting... When am i gonna see the list of gionee, infinix marketers and the likes here

Lmao

ibibiofirstlady:
I am waiting for him to list PDP marketers or Chelsea marketers.

Big one

ibibiofirstlady:
Some people can misbehave though. OP is only a troublemaker

He's really a clown

Penaldo:
Don't mind the clown that thinks he has opinion

Who will be d director?

JustOutstanding:
Hey... See drama for Nairaland ooo...Abeg, lets make a movie out of this...

True

Piusman:
Dude!...when somebody comes online and talks about phones. it's left for you to make your personal researches on the phone before buying. Thank God you agreed tecno has made good phones which they dey didn't force anybody to buy. If people are buying it's because the products are speaking for themselves!

Dude who posted this is without brain

Piusman:
word man......the guys totally jobless!
I seem not to get the significance of this post though!

It's at dat point now

mosjames:
So someone cannot talk about his experience on what he/she have used *sigh*

A very big slowpoke

daphid25:
Some words are better left unsaid, but then again CitizenFour is an !mbecile.

Dude should be schooled

Tizzie:
Like seriously are you eveen for real right now ??

The fact that alot of people have come to terms with the fact thta TECNO is here to stay and is a good product from what we used to know back then shouldn't be a bitter pill to swallow.

You all should just take several seats and let them be !!

Lol, They need it

TeeFeh:
lmao see madness oo
thats how they accused me too of being a tecno marketer
wtf
yall boys shuu grow up abeg or ill dash u one bag of uurea fertlizer to grow up

Are u minding him

henry007:
You opened a fresh account to post this. You're definitely fishy yourself.

Different people with different mentalities now, everyone can't think the same way

Norman4real:
I don't know why some people find it hard to believe that you can genuinely just like something without without shady motives

Baba, you dorn cast

Dam5reey:
See mumu... you registered an account yesterday....
Spending 39minutes online and you were able to list these names...

You are sick..... from inside....
Whom are you fooling....

your first thread and post is list of Tecno marketers on Nairaland... which account where you using before...?

Why didn't you include my user name as well...

Supporting a brand is like becoming a fan.... I support a football club with passion does not mean they are paying me...

Receive some sense right now...

Lol, if dem dorn hire you, remember me self

TundeSalamu:
OP.
To commence with....

I am a Tecno fan.
Yes. The same way some people come to this forum to focus only on sports politics and travel, is same way I came here to read about phones, tecno in particular, and I browse other sections too.

yes i agree that I am not rich enough to buy the big big phones, but Tecno works for me.

I have never misled anyone here. I only write based on experience or what I hear.

This will not deter me. I will come to Nairaland when i have time and comment anyhow I like.

If you like, create a thread that will make FP saying that I Tunde omo Salamu is a Tecno marketer.
Nonsense.

Infact, with the love I have for Tecno, they have to notice me and employ me.

If I earn money for doing something I love, it is a win win.

in osho baba voice

OP, go and Dieeee

Your business

Babalegba:
Very annoying set of people.Their antics has made me develop some kind of dislike for Tecno products
