CAMON Slim 5G: Light to Hold. Fast to Catch.

Behind the pre-order offers is the core reason CAMON Slim 5G was created: to make two things people do every day feel easier — carrying their phone and capturing the moment.

At only 6.39mm thin, CAMON Slim 5G is designed to feel noticeably slimmer and easier to carry throughout the day, while still housing a large 6000mAh battery. For working Filipinos moving between the office, commuting, family time, social activities and everything in between, the phone is designed to deliver everyday capability without adding unnecessary bulk. 

CAMON Slim 5G features a 50MP Sony LYTIA™ 700C Ultra-Night Main Camera, supported by TECNO’s imaging technologies including Super-Zoom FlashSnap.

FlashSnap is designed for moments that happen quickly — from children moving, pets jumping and friends laughing, to sports, concerts and other spontaneous scenes.

With support for up to 2x telephoto snap shooting, the feature helps users capture fleeting moments clearly without having to prepare for the shot long in advance.

The idea is simple: Light to Hold. Fast to Catch. That is how CAMON Slim 5G brings “Make It Lighter” into everyday use.

Burgundy Red Brings Fashion into the CAMON Slim 5G Experience

CAMON Slim 5G also puts strong emphasis on how a smartphone looks and feels in everyday life. Its hero color, Burgundy Red, combines red and brown tones with a refined matte texture and velvet-like finish, giving the phone a warmer and more sophisticated visual character.

Together with its ultra-slim profile, CAMON Slim 5G is designed to feel less like a conventional piece of electronics and more like an extension of personal style.

Consumers can also choose Matisse Black and Rebel Pink, with Gossamer White following later in October.

Up to 24-Month Installment Options with Official Financing Partners

To make CAMON Slim 5G more accessible, TECNO is working with a wide range of official financing partners in the Philippines, including Home Credit, Skyro, Salmon, PayJoy, BillEase and Kredivo, as well as participating credit card installment providers.

Depending on the partner and applicable promotion, customers may enjoy:
