Tecno Camon 12 Air (CC6) is the stripped-down variant of the recently unveiled Tecno Camon 12 (CC7), as a result, the phone is fitted with lower specs such as Helio A22 chipset, 3GB of RAM, 32GB internal storage capacity and lower megapixels front camera. Nonetheless, Tecno Camon 12 Air still features triple-lens back camera and 4000mAh battery, like the better equipped Camon 12.
Although, both phones have almost the same design, Tecno Camon 12 Air comes with a slightly bigger display; which also look more appealing than that of the Camon 12. In other word, the beautiful look of the Tecno Camon 12 Air is as a result of its Dot-in Display, the concept that the Tecno-Mobile just introduced in the latest phone.
Same Design, But Display Looks More Appealing:
The latest Tecno Camon 12 Air is a pretty looking phone, and this is as a result of its striking 6.55-inch Dot-in Display. And it's this Display that distinguishes Camon 12 Air from the Camon 12, and it's also what makes the phone to stand out among many others, in its segment.
In details, instead of having a regular notch at the top of its display, Camon 12 Air display comes with a small cut-out hole, which houses the phone's selfie camera. The concept is similar to that of the Samsung Mobile, implemented in its recent Galaxy S10 (and the Galaxy Note 10) phone.
But, while the Samsung calls its own screen Infinity-O Display, that of the Tecno-mobile is referred to as the Dot-in Display. Also, while the cut-out hole on the Tecno Camon 12 Air display is found on the top left side, that of the Galaxy S10 (and the Galaxy Note 10) placed on the top right side.
Apart from its Dot-in Display, there is nothing spectacular, about the look of the latest Tecno Camon 12 Air again.
For instance, the 6.55-inch screen of the phone is almost of the same size as that of the Camon 12. And like the Tecno Camon 12, Tecno Camon 12 Air also features the same screen aspect ratio of 20:9.
Turning them over, Tecno Camon 12 and Camon 12 Air look alike from the back view. And it's because the latest phone also comes with the triple-lens rear camera, like the Camon 12. And the cameras are also arranged in an horizontal manner, on the back of the new phone. Both phone's rear-mounted fingerprint reader are also located in a similar spot.
The Power button and the Volume Rockers are placed on right edge of the phone, while the Speaker, MicroUSB port, Microphone and 3.5mm Audio jack are located on the bottom edge. Furthermore, the SIM slot, and tray, are located on the left edge of the Tecno Camon 12 Air, but there is nothing on the top edge of the phone.
Colour, Weight and Price:
The back of the Camon 12 Air is also made of glass-like material (polycarbonate), and the phone comes in two Aurora Gradient colours of Ocean Blue and Alpenglow Gold. The new Camon 12 Air weigh 172g and has a thickness of 8.15mm. This shows that Tecno Camon 12 Air has less thickness and less weight, compare to the Tecno Camon 12, because the latter has a thickness of 8.2mm and weigh 179g.
Tecno Camon 12 Air is still available in some smatphone outlets and online stores across the regio at the price of about 51,000 Naira.
6.55-inch Dot-In Display, but same display specs:
Safe for its cut-out hole display, nothing else really distinguishes Camon 12 Air dispay from that of the Camon 12 and those of a few other recent phones such as the Infinix Hot 8 and Tecno Spark 4. This is because Tecno Camon 12 Air also features IPS-LCD screen like those mentioned phones and it also features 20:9 aspect ratio like them. The HD+ (720p) of the Camon 12 Air display also feature a screen resolution of 1600x720, but due to it 6.55-inch screen size, the phone has a slightly different pixel density of 268ppi.
AI Max Triple-lens Rear Camera:
Tecno Camon 12 Air also comes with the AI Max Triple-lens rear camera like the Camon 12. And the Main rear camera of the Camon 12 Air is also made up of 16MP Main shooter, while the second camera also has the same 2MP Depth Sensing lens. But Tecno replaces the third 8MP Wide-Angle lens, of the Camon 12, with a 5MP Wide-Angle lens in the latest Camon 12 Air.
Though, Camon 12 Air shares the same back camera set up (and almost the same megapixels) with the Tecno Camon 12, but compare to 16MP front camera of the Camon 12, Camon 12 Air comes with an 8MP f/1.8 front facing camera. Therefore, as result of its higher (twice) megapixels front-facing camera, you should expect clearer selfie pictures from the more equipped Tecno Camon 12. Nevertheless, Tecno Camon 12 Air front camera also features Beauty Mode, 3D Facial Beauty, AR Sticker and AR Emoji, like that of the Tecno Camon 12.
MediaTek Helio A22, 2.0GHz, Quad-Core CPU.
Because Tecno Camon 12 Air belongs to the segment of the Infinix Hot 8 (X650B) and Tecno Spark 4 (KC8), it doesn't have Helio P22 Octa-Core CPU like the Tecno Camon 12.
So, like the two (mentioned) phones, Tecno Camon 12 Air features Helio A22 Quad-core CPU, which has a maximum clock speed of 2.0GHz and the phone also fitted with the PowerVR GE8320 GPU.
Also like the two mentioned phones, Tecno Camon 12 Air features 32GB internal storage space; which is expandable, through MicroSD card, up to 128GB.
Unlike the two phones, however, Tecno Camon 12 Air is equipped with a slightly higher 3GB of RAM.
Meanwhile, Tecno Camon 12 Air is running on the Android 9 Pie (Operating System) along with the Tecno's HiOS, version 5.5.2
Battery Capacity:
Like the Tecno Camon 12, Camon 12 Air also comes with a 4000mAh non-removable battery and 10 Watts Charger. But, because the Tecno Camon 12 Air doesn't support fast charging, it might take you about three hours to charge the the phone's battery from 0 to 100 percent.
