“Sarah Geronimo and TECNO CAMON 40 Series are a perfect match. Her star power, relatability and ability to inspire millions of Filipinos align with TECNO’s passion to bring innovative smartphones to Filipinos so they can embrace and capture life’s best moments. With the TECNO CAMON 40 Series, even hard to catch, motion filled moments can be captured with sharp focus and clarity,” said TECNO Regional Marketing Director Nana Chen. “I love the TECNO CAMON 40 Series because I can now take tons of photos of my fur baby. We share fun times playing, running around and hugging. Sometimes everything is just a blur. I’m excited to take more photos of my dog using TECNO CAMON 40. Our team also can’t wait to take FlashSnaps during my performance. We can share more photos with my followers. I can share more perfect moments with them,” said Sarah. With TECNO and Sarah’s partnership, the CAMON 40 Series will not just give perfect snaps, but also bring Filipinos closer with their loved ones and favorite popstar – perfect moments, captured.
AI One-Tap FlashSnap Enables Ultimate Snapshot Photography
The CAMON 40 Series redefines mobile snap photography with the power of AI. At its core, the AI-driven FlashSnap mode seamlessly integrates with a powerful camera and a handy One-Tap Button, allowing users to instantly capture life’s most vibrant moments. The series leverages AI to revolutionize mobile photography through FlashSnap technology. With FlashSnap, AI optimizes camera startup and continuous shooting for instant captures, while AI-powered multi-frame processing reduces noise and enhances details for sharper images. Additionally, the BestMoment AI algorithm intelligently analyzes motion patterns, automatically identifying and selecting the best frames to ensure precise captures in dynamic scenarios, offering users an unprecedented imaging experience.

The CAMON 40 Premier 5G’s 50MP Sony LYT-701 Ultra Night Camera collects over 56.25% more light than competitors and produces crystal-clear shots. A super-tuned shutter captures over 2600 times faster than the speed of a human blink for rapid action. Beyond One-Tap FlashSnap, the CAMON 40 Series also comprehensively improves the overall imaging experience. The CAMON 40 Premier 5G features a new 50MP Ultra-wide Angle Camera, a 50MP Periscope Telephone Camera and a 50MP AF Front Camera and is capable of 4K 60fps Pre-ISP Ultra Night Video with independent imaging chip, while the whole series is equipped with all-new wide-angle cameras with 50MP eye-track selfie.
