Design: A Head-Turning Aesthetic
The Tecno Camon 40 Pro 5G promptly impresses with its curved body and slim profile. The display is protected by Gorilla Glass 7i, while the frame and back utilize plastic materials. Tho,don’t let the plastic construction fool you – the design is anything but basic.
Tecno has opted for a striking two-tone color scheme. The camera module area boasts a solid color,contrasting beautifully with a textured,shimmering finish on the rest of the back panel.This creates a unique visual effect that sets it apart from the competition.
The camera module itself features three rings, though only two house actual lenses – the third is a dedicated sensor.A double LED flash and configurable indicator lights flank the module. The Camon 40 Pro 5G is available in Galaxy Black (as tested), Emerald Lake Green, and Glacier White.

Beyond aesthetics,the phone is surprisingly agreeable to hold,even for users with smaller hands,thanks to its lightweight build and slim dimensions. The front of the device features a 6.78-inch OLED display with a crisp 1080p resolution and a smooth 144Hz refresh rate. A hole-punch cutout houses the front-facing camera, and a discreet speaker is positioned between the screen bezel and the phone’s body.
Ports & Practicalities
On the left side, you’ll find a customizable red button. The top edge houses an infrared transmitter alongside a microphone. The bottom features stereo speakers,a USB-C port,a main microphone,and a dual SIM card tray.
A notable omission is a microSD card slot. Users will need to rely on cloud storage for expanding storage capacity.
Interface & Features: HI OS 15 & Long-Term Support
The Tecno Camon 40 Pro 5G runs on Android with Tecno’s HI OS 15 user interface.Tecno is promising a strong commitment to software support, guaranteeing 3 generations of OS updates and 5 years of security patches. This is a significant advantage in a market where software longevity is often a concern.
