Along with KOL Night Awards, TECNO curated
an exclusive product experience zone: brand guides walked Joeboy through its
latest devices, spotlighting AI-driven photography features tailored for
content creators—aligning with the "Power Your Moment" ethos. The
demo let the artist test real-time editing tools, streamlining on-the-go
creative workflows.
A highlight was the 3D photo station with
TECNO AI : KOLs posed with the device, which offers boosted low-light
performance and portrait optimization—key capabilities to elevate their visual
content. Many snapped behind-the-scenes shots instantly, turning the experience
into shareable moments that mirrored the event’s festive energy.
At the TECNO AI Ecosystem showcase, KOLs engaged with interactive demos: trying VR gear linked to the smart ecosystem, or testing AI translation/summarization tools on the MEGAPAD. These hands-on sessions highlighted how TECNO’s interconnected tech empowers creators to expand their creative reach and efficiency.
