TECNO Mobile Launch the Camon 19 Series with 5G Smartphones in Uganda

Four Tecno Camon 19 smartphones now available in the Uganda market. One handset comes with 5G capabilitity.

Tecno Mobile on Friday 24th, June 2022 officially launched the Camon 19 series smartphones in Uganda. The first of its kind in their line of products to come with 5G, the fifth-generation technology standard for broadband cellular networks, and the successor to the 4G networks.

Tecno held the launch of the handsets at The Cielo Lounge, unveiling four Camon 19 handsets that include the Camon 19, Camon 19 Neo, Camon 19 Pro, and Camon 19 Pro 5G. Tecno is not too late to unveil a 5G smartphone considering that smartphone companies began deploying 5G in 2019. In addition, 5G hasn’t been deployed/adopted in most countries (Uganda inclusive).

The Tecno Camon 19 series smartphones are the latest in the Camon series succeeding the Camon 18 series that were released in 2021. We have to admit that the Camon series is the high-end device from Camon having the best specs & features compared to other series.

The Camon 19, according to the company, has been designed for young fashionistas, as well as to overcome the traditional challenges associated with photography in nighttime and low-light conditions with style, with such features as a 64MP bright night portrait photography technology and the industry’s slimmest 0.98mm bezel.
