TECNO CAMON Slim 5G Now Available in the Philippines at ₱27,999, Pairing a 6.39mm Design with a 50MP Sony Camera

The new TECNO CAMON Slim 5G offers launch discounts of up to ₱3,000 from October 16 to 18, 2026, together with a free TECNO MagBadge for eligible purchases.



The TECNO CAMON Slim 5G is officially available in the Philippines starting October 16, 2026, bringing together an ultra-slim premium design and advanced imaging features designed to capture everyday moments with ease.

Priced at ₱27,999, the CAMON Slim 5G is available through TECNO offline stores nationwide, as well as Shopee, TikTok Shop, and Lazada.

The smartphone comes with 256GB of ROM and 8GB of physical RAM, which can be expanded with up to 16GB Extended RAM for a total of up to 24GB RAM.

As part of the First-Month Sale, customers who purchase the CAMON Slim 5G can also receive a FREE TECNO MagBadge worth ₱5,999. The smart magnetic accessory is designed to complement the phone's photography capabilities while adding more personalization to the overall experience.

Following TECNO's “Make It Lighter” philosophy, the CAMON Slim 5G is designed around two everyday experiences: carrying a smartphone and capturing life's spontaneous moments.

At just 6.39mm thin, the device offers an ultra-slim form that is designed to feel lighter and easier to carry throughout the day. For photography, it features a 50MP Sony LYTIA™ 700C main camera with Super-Zoom FlashSnap, helping users capture fast-moving and unexpected moments more easily.


Buy CAMON Slim 5G and Get a Free TECNO MagBadge During the First-Month Sale

CAMON Slim 5G buyers have another reason to check out the new smartphone during its first month of availability. Customers who purchase the device during the first-month open sale can receive a FREE TECNO MagBadge valued at ₱5,999, subject to the promotion's terms and availability.

The smart accessory is designed to enhance the CAMON Slim 5G experience with a 1.73-inch display, allowing users to access features such as rear-camera preview, wireless media sync, and remote shutter control for more convenient and flexible photography.




Ultra-Slim Without Giving Up Everyday Capability

The TECNO CAMON Slim 5G proves that a slim smartphone does not have to compromise on everyday capability. At only 6.39mm thin, the device maintains a lightweight profile while housing a powerful 6000mAh battery designed to support users from their morning commute to work, social gatherings, family moments, and everything in between.

TECNO also puts a strong emphasis on the phone's visual appeal, giving users color options that reflect different personalities and styles.

Leading the lineup is Burgundy Red, featuring a combination of deep red and brown shades with a smooth matte finish. The result is a warmer and more sophisticated aesthetic that gives the phone a distinct character.

For those with different style preferences, the CAMON Slim 5G is also available in Matisse Black and Rebel Pink, while Gossamer White is set to arrive toward the end of October.

With its ultra-slim profile and expressive finishes, the CAMON Slim 5G is designed to feel less like a standard piece of technology and more like an everyday accessory that fits seamlessly into personal style.


Sony-Powered Imaging Made for Moments That Don’t Wait

The TECNO CAMON Slim 5G puts photography at the heart of the everyday smartphone experience, featuring a 50MP Sony LYTIA™ 700C Main Camera built to handle different shooting conditions and help users capture life's memorable moments.

For those split-second moments that are easy to miss, Super-Zoom FlashSnap is designed to make quick photography more convenient. Supporting up to 2x telephoto snap shooting, the feature gives users more flexibility to frame moving subjects while helping capture them quickly and clearly.

Think of those moments when a child suddenly starts performing, a pet jumps into action, or friends burst into laughter. FlashSnap is designed to help users keep up. The up-to-2x telephoto option also provides added framing flexibility when shooting concerts, sports, or subjects that are farther away.

This combination of slim portability and ready-to-use imaging capabilities captures what TECNO sees as the heart of the CAMON Slim 5G—having a phone that's easy to carry and a camera that's ready whenever the moment happens.




Being slim is only part of the TECNO CAMON Slim 5G experience. The smartphone is also designed to handle the realities of everyday life, combining its lightweight build with a range of durability features.

With IP69K, IP69, and IP68 water and dust resistance, the CAMON Slim 5G is built to provide users with greater peace of mind when dealing with unexpected everyday conditions.

Its 1.5K 144Hz AMOLED display adds to the experience, offering smooth and responsive visuals whether users are scrolling through social media, checking photos, or watching their favorite videos.

This reflects TECNO's idea behind “Make It Lighter.” Rather than asking people to do less with their phones, the philosophy focuses on creating technology that blends seamlessly into their existing routines and lifestyles.

TECNO Unveils CAMON SLIM 5G Through “The Living Cover Runway,” Celebrating Filipino Women Who Make Life Lighter

More than a smartphone launch, TECNO transformed the debut of CAMON SLIM 5G into a living fashion editorial, bringing together technology, Filipino design and the real stories of women behind “Make It Lighter.



Imagine a smartphone launch transformed into a fashion magazine cover—only this time, the cover comes alive.

TECNO brought that vision to the Philippines with the launch of the CAMON SLIM 5G through “MAKE IT LIGHTER: The Living Cover Runway.” More than a conventional tech event, the fashion-inspired experience celebrated modern Filipino women by putting their style, ambitions, responsibilities and personal stories in the spotlight.

The evening moved beyond product specifications and demonstrations to tell a larger story around TECNO’s “Make It Lighter.” philosophy. At the center was a smartphone that combines an exceptionally slim, easy-to-carry design with the capabilities to support the demands of busy, modern lifestyles.

For women constantly moving between work, daily commutes, family responsibilities, friendships, passions and personal goals, “lighter” can take on a deeper meaning. It can be about simplifying the way we move through life and finding smarter ways to carry the things that matter most. With the runway as its stage, TECNO brought that idea to life through fashion, movement and technology.




Not Models. Living Covers.

The highlight of the event was The Living Cover Runway, where 15 women from diverse backgrounds and walks of life took center stage.

Among them were celebrities and creators, as well as entrepreneurs, working mothers, business leaders, women in technology, community builders and everyday Filipinas with stories that cannot be defined by a single role.

The runway brought TECNO’s “Make It Lighter” message to life through personal storytelling. The concept was simple yet meaningful: every woman is the cover of her own story. As each participant stepped onto the runway, her name and identity were displayed on the LED screen before she walked forward with the CAMON SLIM 5G in hand. A narration followed, sharing a glimpse of her journey, her responsibilities and what “making life lighter” means from her own perspective.


15 Women, 15 Different Definitions of Strength

There was never meant to be just one version of the “CAMON woman.” Instead, TECNO used The Living Cover Runway to showcase women with different stories, responsibilities, ambitions and definitions of what it means to live life on their own terms.

Ely Halig, a solo working mom and advertising professional, shared a perspective shaped by her roles as a breadwinner and competitive padel player. Her journey challenges the idea that motherhood requires women to give up parts of themselves. For Ely, “Make It Lighter” means finding space for her career, raising her daughter and continuing to nurture the interests and identity that belong to her as an individual.

For Twinkle Dimayuga, being a solo mother became the starting point for creating a wider community of support. Her experiences contributed to the development of MAMA — Mothers Advocating through Ministry and Action, reflecting her belief that women do not always have to carry every responsibility alone. Her story gives “lighter” another dimension: sometimes, sharing the load and welcoming others into the solution can be a form of strength.

Other women on the runway represented journeys of reinvention, creativity, identity and growth, including Aubrey Miles, Carlyn Ocampo, Fuschia Anne Ravena, Max Collins and Megan Young.

The finale was led by Megan Young, actress, host and Miss World 2013. Her career across pageantry and entertainment captured the evening’s theme of continually evolving beyond one defining label. Her Living Cover appearance reflected the confidence, style and possibilities celebrated throughout the launch.

Rather than becoming another celebrity fashion presentation, the runway evolved into a visual collection of stories—offering a more personal look at the diverse experiences of modern Filipinas




Burgundy Red Becomes a Fashion Language

Burgundy Red, the hero shade of the CAMON SLIM 5G, became the defining color of the evening’s fashion presentation. While all 15 women wore looks connected by the rich burgundy palette, no two interpretations were exactly alike.

The styling moved away from identical gowns and traditional pageant fashion, taking inspiration instead from modern Filipiniana. Structured elements were combined with translucent materials, flowing drapes, pleats and movement, creating looks that reflected the individual character of each woman.

The fashion language shifted from one personality to another. Some silhouettes conveyed discipline and strength through sharper structures, while softer layers expressed themes of transition, vulnerability and freedom. Personal details drawn from careers, passions, family backgrounds and defining moments added another layer of storytelling to each ensemble.




A Launch Designed Like a Living Magazine

The magazine-inspired storytelling did not end when guests reached the runway. TECNO designed the entire CAMON SLIM 5G launch as an editorial journey, beginning at the entrance and continuing through a series of carefully curated spaces.

Guests moved through the Arrival Salon, explored portrait displays and product experience areas, and eventually arrived at the main editorial runway. Each space was conceived as another chapter in the same visual narrative, creating a more immersive experience than a conventional trade-show-style product launch.

Even the first impression followed the fashion direction, incorporating modern Filipiniana details and a hospitality-led environment designed to feel more refined and less visually crowded than a typical smartphone event.

Yet the storytelling always returned to the product. The CAMON SLIM 5G, TECNO’s new ultra-slim imaging flagship in the Philippines, features a 6.39mm ultra-slim body, 6,000mAh battery, 50MP Sony LYTIA™ 700C main camera, Super-Zoom FlashSnap and TECNO Universal Tone imaging.

The launch ultimately connected two worlds that increasingly overlap in everyday life: fashion and technology. Today, a smartphone is more than a tool—it is an everyday companion that people carry, hold, photograph with and use across countless moments.


A First Glimpse at Angélica Dass and the Stories Beyond the Runway

Beyond the runway and fashion presentation, TECNO also introduced a glimpse of its next storytelling chapter with Filipino women through its collaboration with artist and photographer Angélica Dass.

Photography was integrated into the launch as part of a broader conversation about identity and the women behind the roles and labels society often assigns to them. The portraits became an emotional connecting point throughout the event, linking individual women and their experiences with the larger stories told during the evening.

For its Philippine chapter, the project will focus on working women, especially working solo mothers and the people who support them, exploring their journeys through the Filipino concept of diskarte. Here, diskarte represents the adaptability, wisdom and resourcefulness women use to find practical and meaningful ways forward.

Instead of defining these women primarily through challenges or sacrifice, the project looks beyond those narratives and asks a more personal question: Who are they beyond the labels placed on them?

TECNO is expected to reveal more about the Angélica Dass collaboration later in October.


Making Technology Feel Closer to Real Life

The The Living Cover Runway ultimately captured what TECNO wants the CAMON SLIM 5G to represent: technology designed for women whose lives are full of different roles, responsibilities and aspirations.

A modern Filipina can move from being a professional in the morning to a daughter, mother or partner at home, then become a creator, friend or entrepreneur as the day continues. Beyond these roles, she also carries personal goals, passions and dreams that belong entirely to her.

The launch recognized that there is no single definition of the woman CAMON is speaking to. Instead, it celebrated different women and different life stories, bringing them together on the same runway while allowing each one to remain distinctly herself.

That perspective gave deeper meaning to “Make It Lighter.” The message was never about making a woman's life smaller or pretending that her responsibilities are simple. It was about understanding the reality of a busy, multidimensional life and creating technology and experiences that can keep pace with it.




Through CAMON SLIM 5G, TECNO brought this idea to life beyond the product specification sheet. Fashion, technology and everyday experiences came together to show the smartphone as something that naturally belongs in the movement and lifestyle of the women it was designed for.

Every woman carries something different.

And every woman deserves to be the cover of it.

The CAMON Slim 5G is available in burgundy red, matisse black, and rebel pink during the pre-order period. It will also be available in 3D white next month.
