The new lineup—comprising the CAMON 50 Ultra 5G, CAMON 50 Pro, and CAMON 50—represents a bold evolution in mobile technology, seamlessly merging professional-grade hardware with intuitive, integrated AI to empower users as creative partners in daily life.
Professional Imaging Reimagined with AI
The CAMON 50 Ultra 5G is engineered for visionaries, featuring a segment-leading 50MP Sony LYTIA 700C Ultra Night Camera that delivers exceptional clarity even in the most challenging low-light environments. A dedicated 50MP 3X Telephoto Camera (available on Ultra 5G and Pro models) brings the iconic 70mm portrait focal length to users’ fingertips, while AI 60X SuperZoom ensures crisp detail from across a stadium.
At the heart of the system lies the AI RAW 2.0 imaging engine—the intelligent brain mastering complex light and detail for surgical accuracy and crystalline clarity. The experience is elevated by Super-Zoom FlashSnap, a breakthrough feature seamlessly merging high-speed action capture with powerful telephoto capabilities, freezing split-second emotions with perfect precision even from a distance.
To perfect the creative process, the industry-first AI Auto Zoom serves as an on-the-go editor, intelligently detecting subjects and cropping for optimal composition—transforming everyday shots into gallery-ready masterpieces.

Underscoring its exceptional imaging capabilities, the CAMON 50 Ultra 5G achieved:
- 146 DXOMARK overall camera score—the highest for smartphones under $600
- 142 stellar portrait score, ranking among the top in its price segment
“With the upcoming CAMON 50 Ultra 5G, TECNO’s proprietary Universal Tone technology confirms a bright and engaging image style that closely matches how users naturally see the scene. Combined, these strengths will make the CAMON 50 Ultra 5G stand out as a compelling choice for accurate and inclusive skin tone rendering under $600,” said Frédérique Guichard, CEO of DXOMARK.
