TECNO Camon 16 Pro vs Infinix S5 Pro: Where the Camon 16 Pro Has the Advantage
The Camon 16 Pro has a massive 6.8-inch LCD screen that lets users enjoy their favourite games and movies on a larger display.
In the optics department, it has an extra rear camera than its rival (which also boasts better numbers), fielding a quad-rear camera setup. However, camera comparisons are not just limited to numbers, meaning that these numbers may not necessarily imply that the Camon 16 Pro offers a better photography experience.
Under the hood, the Helio G70 chipset takes care of business, and makes this smartphone a good option for mobile gamers.
The Camon 16 Pro shares the same RAM and onboard storage as its rival, but brings more external memory to the fray. It also has a stronger battery to support its great specs, with a 5,000mAh power cell to rely on.
TECNO Camon 16 Pro vs Infinix S5 Pro: Where the S5 Pro Has the Advantage
The S5 Pro is a slightly cheaper option than its counterpart, it brings a better design with a glossy polycarbonate finish and is smaller and more compact, making it easier to keep in smaller purses and pockets.
Under the hood, it has a faster chipset than the TECNO’s, meaning that this device is expected to enjoy a smoother operation and should handle multitasking better.
It supports 4G support like its counterpart and offers the same internal storage space as the Camon 16 Pro.
It also has the Android 10 OS taking care of software responsibilities, and has a really awesome front camera to call on when it comes to video calls.
TECNO Camon 16 Pro vs Infinix S5 Pro: Who Prevails In This Mid-range Duel?
Both devices offer 4G support, boast good camera specs and offer long-lasting batteries. But where exactly do we pitch our tent? The Infinix S5 Pro or the Camon 16 Pro?
The S5 Pro is a cheaper option than its counterpart and should be ideal for you if you are on the lookout for a device that lets you get your hands on some nice specs (with a faster chipset) at a decent cost. It also brings a display with a better, sharper quality than its rival on the day.
The Camon 16 Pro on the other hand brings a larger display, letting users enjoy their favourite shows on a larger screen. It also has more cameras (rear and front) than the S5 Pro. It offers more external storage than its rival. However, it costs a little more than the S5 Pro, and should be a good option for smartphone gamers due to its chipset.
This head-to-head does not prop up a clear champion, as both smartphones have unique qualities they bring to the table. However, if you want something that lets you switch better between apps and multitask properly, then the S5 Pro will be the better option for you.
But if you enjoy gaming on your device and want to get the best out of your cameras, then the Camon 16 Pro should come in handy for you.
