Artfully-created colorways, professional-level imaging, and practical AI — all housed in a 6.39mm yet durable body
HONG KONG, Sept. 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- TECNO, an innovative AI-driven technology brand, today unveiled the TECNO CAMON Slim 5G, a device that brings CAMON's imaging capabilities to a 6.39mm slim body. It brings together artful design language, a pro-level imaging system, and a suite of practical AI features — all wrapped in one-of-a-kind artistic colorways. Each TECNO CAMON Slim 5G is not just a phone; it is a work of art you hold in your hand.
6.39mm Ultra-Slim Design: Art in Every Detail The TECNO CAMON Slim 5G carries forward the iconic swan-neck curve design found in the flagship CAMON 50 series, drawing inspiration from the grace of ballet dancers and the dynamic lines of automotive exteriors. The result is a body that balances motion and strength in its contours.
At just 6.39mm thin, it offers effortless one-handed use while still hosting a 6,000mAh battery easily capable of full-day use. The new model features five artistic colorways - Burgundy Red, Neo Mondrian, Matisse Black, Van Gogh Blue, Rebel Pink - each with its own design soul and craft story:
Burgundy Red couples fiberglass and matte texture, achieving a sophisticated balance between red and brown. The material's velvet feel gives a polished warmth tailored for those with a discerning eye for aesthetics.
Neo Mondrian uses photochromic technology. The panel appears as minimalist pure white in normal conditions. Under ultraviolet light, color blocks gradually emerge and form the Piet Mondrian's classic grid composition.
In Matisse Black, a black fiberglass body is punctuated by a fluorescent green embellishment, echoing the jumping color blocks in Fauvist master Henri Matisse's cut-outs.
Van Gogh Blue recreates the swirling nebula of Van Gogh's The Starry Night. Using a patterned gradient coating process, the nebula appears to truly rotate across the back cover.
Rebel Pink sees sharp, striking pink accents in a bold black body. Sweet coolness cuts through a composed aura — it is soft allure, but also an unyielding spirit of rebellion.
The colorways, each paying tribute to art masters or reinterpreting classics, ensure that every CAMON Slim 5G is not merely a communication device, but an expression of personal style.
50MP Sony LYTIA™ 700C Ultra-Night Main Camera: Snap Best Moments with Ease The TECNO CAMON Slim 5G houses a 50MP Sony LYTIA™ 700C Ultra Night Main Camera with a 1/1.56-inch sensor for outstanding light-gathering capability. A closed-loop ball motor achieves faster, more precise autofocus. A triple stabilization system combines Optical Image Stabilization (OIS), AI Electric Image Stabilization (EIS), and AI Shutter to deliver clear, stable shots in low light or action scenes.
Super-Zoom FlashSnap is the signature shooting experience. Without pressing the shutter, AI automatically captures your best moment in life — from concerts and matches to gatherings with friends: the freeze of a dance move, the decisive moment of a soccer strike, or the instant a pet leaps. Supporting up to 2x telephoto snap shooting with shutter speeds as fast as 1/11236 second, it locks in the action even from a distance.
Multi-Focal-Length Portrait offers three classic focal lengths — 24mm, 35mm, and 50mm — from environmental portraits to classic close-ups, catering to different shooting styles. Combined with TECNO Universal Tone full-spectrum skin tone imaging technology, all skin tones are rendered authentically, and night portraits perform equally well.
TECNO Universal Tone is the most advanced AI-powered full-spectrum skin tone imaging technology that integrates TECNO's industry benchmark multi-skin tone color card and the industry's largest and most accurate skin tone database.
Launching along with the TECNO CAMON Slim 5G is the TECNO Mag Badge, a magnetic accessory with built-in battery and a 1.73" AMOLED display. Connecting to the phone via Bluetooth, it could act as a photo gallery badge, a remote shutter control up to 10 meters and a selfie assistant helping with previews and camera switch.
Practical AI: Integrated into Everyday Life The CAMON Slim 5G comes equipped with a range of accessible AI features spanning productivity, health, and lifestyle.*
AI Snap Poster helps small merchants create professional product posters instantly. Users can photograph an item, and the AI will automatically remove the background and place the product into a selected theme, such as a home interior or beach setting. AI Pet Together generates a single composite portrait from separate photos of a user and their pets.
Moreover, the popular AI LightMaster 2.0 helps users effortlessly restore images by removing shadows, flares, and reflections — turning imperfect shots into polished results. All these functions can be easily found on the zero screen.
For education and professional use, AI Recording Notes in the recorder app transcribes recorded lectures into structured notes and syncs whiteboard photos to the corresponding moments in the audio. AI Class Schedule can be activated in the zero screen, allowing users to import course schedules from paper via screenshot, color-code courses, and display them in a dedicated widget.
For lifestyle needs, AI Healthy Eating analyzes food photos to estimate calories and nutrients, providing personalized meal recommendations. These functions are easily accessible from the zero screen.
