Tecno Camon 30 Premier – 6.77″ (12GB RAM, 512GB ROM) Android 14 (50/50/50)MP + 50MP Selfie – 5G – Dual Sim – 5000mAh – Black
Tecno’s Camon 30 Premier offers some high-tier features that punch above the price range. Above all, the Camon 30 Premier is marketed as a cameraphone.
And indeed, the specs sheet suggests the Camon 30 Premier’s centerpiece feature is the camera hardware. The device features a potent triple 50MP camera setup on the back, along with an AF-enabled 50MP selfie camera.
The main 50MP camera uses a respectable 1/1.56-inch sensor, but the 50MP, 2.76″ periscope telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom is arguably more impressive. The two cameras are complemented with another 50MP ultrawide unit, while the front offers a rare find – 50MP selfie unit with AF capability.

The display department isn’t overlooked either. In fact, some flagship offerings don’t get LTPO OLED panels, but the Camon 30 Premier surprises with one. It has a higher resolution than usual, supports HDR and can go up to 120Hz refresh rate. The Dimensity 8200, a nice upper-mid-range solution, is tasked with driving all those pixels. The only available memory configuration is 12GB/512GB, so we can overlook the missing microSD card slot.
And as for the battery, it’s business as usual – 5,000 mAh with fast 70W charging, which we expect to be quite competitive.
Before we continue, the design and build deserve a brief mention too. The Camon 30 Premier may not have the highest ingress protection (just IP54) but it offers a robust design with a Gorilla Glass 5 front sheet and aluminum chassis with a touch of vegan leather.
