Editorial report

Tecno Camon 16 S technical sheet

The Tecno Camon 16 S suits buyers looking for a straightforward Android phone for everyday use who put battery capacity first. Its main trade-off is a display with low pixel density. The 5000 mAh battery has more capacity than that of most phones launched around the same time. The 6.6″ IPS LCD display has Gorilla Glass 3, but its 266 ppi is lower than on most phones of its time; overall, the display is among the weakest of that period.

Its 4 GB of RAM is below average for phones launched around the same time, while storage is 128 GB. Connectivity is worse than on most of those phones. The options include LTE, Wi-Fi 802.11a/b/g/n/ac, Bluetooth 5.0 and Dual Nano-SIM. On the back, a 48 MP camera is paired with a 2 MP macro camera, and video recording reaches 1080p at 30 fps. Overall, its camera is below average among phones of its time.

Android 10, a 3.5 mm audio jack, FM radio and microUSB round out a basic set of features. The Tecno Camon 16 S has a NeoScore of 4.5. It is best suited to buyers who value battery capacity more than a sharper display or connectivity that keeps pace with most phones launched around the same time.
