Tecno Camon series boasts of excellent numbers of smartphones with amazing camera quality. Quite interestingly, Camon X isn’t falling short of this great quality as it packs an impressive camera setup plus a host of other pleasant features. My first Tecno Camon CX First Impression wasn’t really bad, however, my rush and undying demand for budget phones with the best camera remains undiluted and highly concentrated.
While Camon X is considered a lesser version of Camon X Pro, it still delivers nice specifications and interesting features which place it in the bandwagon of the mid-range smartphones to beat.
