TECNO introduced the CAMON 40 smartphone series

      TECNO has officially announced a new line of CAMON 40 smartphones. The key innovation is TECNO AI's own artificial intelligence platform and Ella voice assistant, adapted to the Russian market. The new devices have also received integration with Yandex services: Yandex Go, Yandex Maps and Yandex Food.

       According to the manufacturer, Ella recognizes voice commands in Russian and allows you to call a taxi, set routes or order food without resorting to manual input. Smartphones can also recognize information from the screen and perform actions automatically, such as saving a contact, scanning a QR code, or adding an event to a calendar.

       Integration with Yandex services is implemented at the system level. To activate the assistant, the One-Tap button is used, after which it is enough for the user to voice the command. At the same time, the installation of additional applications is not required — the functions work after the initial configuration of the device.Image: TECNO Press Service

       The TECNO CAMON 40 series includes four models: CAMON 40, CAMON 40 Pro, CAMON 40 Pro 5G and the flagship version CAMON 40 Premier 5G. The devices received AMOLED displays, protection from moisture and dust, as well as improved cameras. The flagship model is equipped with a four-camera system, including a Sony LYT-701 sensor, a front-facing camera with autofocus and a telephoto lens with triple optical zoom.

       Special attention is paid to the shooting functions: smartphones have received the FlashSnap mode, which allows you to take clear pictures of moving objects due to high shutter speed and machine learning algorithms.Image: TECNO Press Service

       Smartphones have already gone on sale in Russia. The devices are available on the official TECNO online store, as well as from leading retailers.

       The company also announced its intention to continue localization of its AI solutions in cooperation with Russian partners. According to Chris Ma, CEO of TECNO in Russia, the company sees significant potential in the development of local technologies and plans to expand the assistant's functionality and integration with popular services in the country.
