TECNO Mobile picks an award at GITTA 2017
TECNO Mobile one of Ghana’s leading budget phone manufacturers picked an award for the “Most Popular Phone Brand in Ghana” at the just ended Ghana Information Technology and Telecom Awards 2017 held last Friday, July 14, 2017, at Kempinski Hotel, Accra.
With the influx of new phone brands in Ghana, one would have not thought an old phone brand like TECNO had a chance.
This year has been good for TECNO Mobile as sales of their flagship smartphone the Camon CX had over 5000 pieces sold within the first month it was released.
Brands like Samsung, infinix and itel were in this category but TECNO came out stronger.
This recognition puts TECNO ahead of its competition and justifies the claim of having a good percentage of the smartphone market in Ghana.
Also, MTN Ghana, the leading telecommunications service provider in the country received 10 prestigious awards that night. Find below the full list of winners.
