In which colours is the Tecno CAMON 18 available?

When was the Tecno CAMON 18 release date?

From a design standpoint, Camon 18 features a flat back with squared-off edges complemented by a flat display with a punch-hole cutout. The selfie cam opening appears smaller than on the preceding Camon 17 series.
Moving around the back we see a triple camera system with 16-135mm equivalent lenses and f/1.6-3.5 apertures. There’s also OIS support for shake-free videos and stills.
The camera island also advertises a hybrid 60x zoom which is expected to offer image stabilization. We don’t have the actual camera sensors info here but we’ll hopefully learn more about them and the rest of the spec sheet of the Camon 18 soon.
