Tecno Camon X VS iPhone X – Specs Comparison. Tecno Mobile newest flagship “Camon X” was just released and its been getting some serious buzz in Africa/Nigeria. As we all know, the Camon series is all about camera quality and bright pictures. Some pundits in the tech world are even saying the Camon X camera takes better picture than the iPhone X. Instead of comparing just their camera quality, why not compare their full specs and features.

I know you would probably wonder what kind of comparison is this. Like how could Tecno mid-range smartphone go head-to-head with arguably the best smartphone in the market. Well, doing the unimaginable is where the fun is. Just picture it like a David vs Goliath kind of battle, but doesn’t necessarily mean David will win 🙂

Tecno Camon X VS iPhone X – The Design

Both phones are almost the same in sleekness with the Camon X measured at 7.8mm thickness. While iPhone X measures at 7.7mm thickness. Surprisingly, the Camon X is lighter than the iPhone X. I don’t think many users would want a heavy phone, at least not me. So i’d say good job to Tecno Mobile. The Camon X weighs just 148 grams while iPhone X weighs 174 grams.
