Benefits / Pros & Cons

Here’s a balanced look at what the CAMON 40 Premier 5G does well — and where it may fall short.
✅ Pros
-
Outstanding camera hardware + AI features — excellent for photo/video creators and photography-enthusiasts.
-
Premium display with 144 Hz refresh and high resolution — smooth and vibrant visual experience.
-
Slim and relatively light body given its feature set — easy to carry and hold.
-
Fast charging and respectable battery capacity — good for daily usage.
-
Good value in semi-flagship category (given specs) compared to ultra-premium brands.
-
The inclusion of dedicated camera/imaging tools adds real usability beyond just “number specs”.
⚠️ Cons

-
As with many semi-flagship phones, not quite on par with full flagship brands in terms of ecosystem, long-term software updates, or extremely high benchmark hardware.
-
Battery 5100 MAH is good, but heavy usage (camera + 144 Hz display + 5G) may drain it faster — real-world results may vary.
-
Charging 70W is fast but not fastest tier (some brands offer 100W+, wireless charging ETC).
-
Availability and accessory/after-sales service may vary regionally; always check for authenticity and warranty.
-
At PKR 119,999, it competes with some other very strong phones — so value depends on your priorities (camera, design, brand).

Tips / Guide: How to Make the Most of It

To fully benefit from the CAMON 40 Premier 5G, here are actionable tips:
-
Use the One-Tap Button: Get comfortable with double-press camera launch and long-press for AI assistant — speeds up capture when moments count.
-
Explore the AI camera modes: Try Flash Snap when subjects are moving; use AI Erase to remove unwanted objects (e.g., a passer-by in your shot); use AI Image Extender to create more dynamic backgrounds.

-
Switch refresh rate smartly: While 144 Hz is smooth, switching to a lower refresh rate in settings may help battery life if you’re primarily browsing or reading.
-
Manage battery and charging: Use the 70W charger for fast top-ups (many times you might get 50-60% in 20-30 minutes), but don’t over-rely on it daily if you want battery longevity.
-
Protect the phone: Despite its durable specs (Gorilla Glass 7i, IP68/IP69), using a good case adds safety. The stylish body may be slippery in hand.
-
Update software and camera firmware: Since features are camera- and AI-heavy, make sure you update to latest firmware for best results (image processing improvements often come via updates).
-
Backup and storage: With 256 GB storage you should be comfortable, but if you shoot lots of 4K/AI-enhanced images/videos, watch your free space. Cloud backup is advisable.
-
Check network/support in Pakistan: Make sure the unit is PTA approved and has valid warranty. Verify the IMEI and purchase from a reputable dealer or online store.

My Experience / View

Having reviewed many devices in this mid-to-upper segment, I view the CAMON40 Premier 5G as a strong contender for users PRIORITSING photography and design without stepping into ultra-flagship pricing territory.
The triple-50 MP rear system is impressive — especially the inclusion of a periscope telephoto at this price point, which many competitors skip.
The AI tools feel thoughtful rather than gimmicky (e.g., the Flash Snap caching multiple frames to pick the best). The 144 Hz display gives a premium feel that’s noticeable in day-to-day use.
The physical size, weight and finish feel comfortable and well-built for 2025 standards.
On the flip side, if your primary need is sheer raw horsepower or longest battery life, there might be phones that focus on those metrics more heavily.
But for what this phone sets out to do combine camera power, smart features, solid performance and modern design — it delivers a compelling package for its price bracket.
If I were to SUMMARISE: in the “camera-friendly semi-flagship” niche, this model stands up very well.
Conclusion

The TECNO CAMON40 Premier 5G is more than just a refresh it sets a meaningful benchmark for users who want a phone that can truly perform as a camera, while still delivering a modern smartphone experience.
The blend of high-level camera hardware, advanced AI features, a top-tier display and solid spec sheet makes it a standout in its segment.

For Pakistan buyers, with an official price around PKR 119,999, PTA approval, and a full spec sheet, it’s worth serious consideration especially if you enjoy photography, social-media content creation, or simply demand more from your mobile camera than “just a quantity of megapixels”.
My Suggestion: If your budget allows and your priority is imaging & design, this phone delivers strong value.
Just ensure you buy from a trusted dealer, check warranty status, and invest a little time in learning its AI camera modes to unlock its full potential.

My Calculation: Weighing features vs cost, I find that for every rupee above ~100K, you’re getting meaningful specs: 144 Hz display, periscope zoom, advanced AI imaging, strong chip, fast charging.
Compared to lower-tier phones, the jump here is justified as long as you use these features. If you’re more casual (mostly WhatsApp/social media/browsing), you may get by with less and save some cash.
In short: if camera-centric, then this is a highly recommended choice in 2025.
