Tecno Camon 11

Tecno has added to its already-long list of phones in the Camon series with the launch of the Tecno Camon 11. This device comes as a direct successor to the Tecno Camon X which was released about 6 months ago. Tecno devices have been known to be pocket-friendly when compared to some other phones with the same specs, and Tecno tries to always keep to that.

It also has a notch that houses the camera and other sensors. However, even in all its glory, the Camon 11 was launched with Android 8.1 Oreo, not the latest Android 9 Pie.
