The Tecno Camon 30 Premier 5G features a 6.77-inch LTPO OLED display with a resolution of 1264 x 2780 pixels and a peak brightness level of 1400 nits. The phone is said to be powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 8200 Ultra SoC coupled with up to 12GB of RAM and up to 512GB of inbuilt storage. It will ship with Android 14 based user interface.

As for the cameras, the Tecno Camon 30 Premier 5G sports a triple rear camera that includes a 1/1.56-inch 50-megapixel Sony IMX890 primary sensor with optical image stabilization (OIS) support, a 50-megapixel 70mm a periscope camera sensor, and a third 50-megapixel sensor with an ultra-wide lens. The phone’s front camera uses a 50-megapixel sensor.

The Tecno PolarAce imaging system is centered around a Sony CXD5622GG chip, which is an Image Processing Processor (ISP). The dedicated image processor is said to help with high-quality image and video processing without draining power from the main SoC.

The Tecno packs a 5000mAh battery with support for 70W wired fast charging via USB Type-C port. The handset is equipped with stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos support. It also gets FM radio, IR blaster, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity.
