The evolution of smartphone night photography

Night has always been a fascinating subject for art. The natural darkness can highlight emotional impact more effectively than lowering the contrast of a photo. Nightlife can also be moody and euphoric. When going out to clubs and bar hopping, many revellers want to document their fun night.

Beforehand, smartphones would capture blurry images. And photos taken with the flash on would look otherworldly or with the red-eye effect that can be challenging to edit. With the dim lights and undulating bodies, the club’s atmosphere can be easily captured with an advanced camera. However, smartphones haven’t been able to capture the same clear photography. The new TECNO CAMON 20 Series promises to deliver great night photography to any who wants to capture the stars or vibrant nightlife.

Android 14 Beta Roll Out

TECNO will also be among the first smartphone manufacturers to offer Google’s Android 14 Beta release. The operating system will be run in the CAMON 20 Series. It will bring upgrades and enhancements that elevate the user’s experience. Android 14 will have privacy, security, performance, and user customization updates.

Privacy and Security

Apps with a target SDK Version lower than 23 can’t be installed. This will make it difficult for malware to be installed.

Longer Battery life

The TECNO CAMON 20 Android 14 system will better handle background applications, downloads, uploads, and multiple apps running. This reduces the energy drained from the battery. The improved system efficiency will enable smartphones to last longer, even in heavy use.

Accessibility

Users with low vision will have better accessibility options. The Android 14 will have larger font scaling. The scaling curve will also be non-linear to enable large text and small text elements to scale at different elements to enable balanced scaling. This also maintains the scale integrity of the elements, which are sized differently.

CAMON 20 Anti-shaking Technology

5000 Times/s Sensor-Shift OIS Anti-shaking Technology

The  TECNO CAMON 20 has a Premier 5G 5000 Times/s Sensor-Shift OIS Anti-shaking technology. It also contains the 50MP RGBW Ultra-Sensitive sensor, which enables the phone to provide SLR-level videos without shaking and clear night portraits. The 108MP Ultra Definition camera also delivers spectacular wide-angle video and photo shots.

TECNO has incorporated SLR camera in-body image stabilization into the TECNO CAMON 20 Premier 5G. This device can compensate for shakes up to 5000 times per second. Images and videos will be crisp and clear even when taken with an unsteady hand. It’s one of the most revolutionary anti-shake solutions within smartphone photography.

TECNO also hopes to demystify and popularize SLR anti-shake innovations in smartphones. Other solutions still compromise the quality of the photo or video. Every single ray of light is preserved without cropping the image. Up to 93% of footage can still be preserved, and it captures every emotion.

50MP RGBW Ultra-Sensitive Sensor for Night Portrait

The RGBW technology has brought about brilliant night portraits in devices that utilize it. It replaces the traditional “green” array solution, which uses an RGGB colour filter with a white filter. The RGBW sensor enables more light to be captured. The 16+6P lens increases the light intake. This is because it replaces one of the plastic lenses with a glass lens before the light reaches the main sensor. In addition, the main sensor in the TECNO CAMON 20 Premier 5G is increased from 1/1.73 to 1/1.56. The single pixel size is up from 0.8μm to 1.0μm. This has a 56.25% larger light-sensitive area. The resulting images are as close to real pictures as possible. You will never lose details in night photos.

CAMON PUZZLE Deconstructionist Design 

It’s inspired by the deconstructionist genre of postmodern architecture, fusing TECNO’s magic skin with ceramic materials and creating the CAMON PUZZLE design. For the first time, TECNO will engrave 20 irregular ribs in a lychee pattern on the Magic Skin cover. Sapphire-grade ceramic will be integrated into the device’s back cover. This combination is a standout and stylish statement.

The fusion of ceramic materials in the TECNO CAMON 20 Magic Skin cover makes the phone comfortable and doesn’t retain fingerprints and other unsavoury marks. High-quality materials are a trendsetter within the industry. The design won the MUSE Design 2023 Gold Award and shows that TECNO is a smartphone design pioneer.

Eye protection

The TECNO CAMON 20 Premier 5G contains TUV Rheinland Eye protection certification display. It has a 120Hz Adaptive refresh rate.
