Proposed TECNO article updates (COI edit request)

Hello, this is David, and I am submitting this request on behalf of the TECNO PR team to provide up-to-date, factual information for the Wikipedia community. We are committed to maintaining a neutral tone, avoiding promotional or subjective language, and supporting all changes with independent, third-party sources.

We have noticed that some information on the TECNO article is outdated or lacks recent developments. The proposed updates are based on reliable, independent sources and are intended to improve the article’s accuracy and neutrality.

== Proposed update: Company Overview == TECNO is a technology brand operating in over 70 markets across five continents, with a focus on mobile devices and AI-driven solutions. The company has developed a range of products including smartphones, wearables, laptops, tablets, and smart home devices, as well as its proprietary HiOS operating system.

== Proposed update: Imaging and AI Technology ==

TECNO has introduced several advancements in mobile imaging technology. At Future Lens 2024 in Chongqing, the company showcased three new imaging technologies—TECNO Image Matrix (TIM), EVS Dynamic Snapshot, and Tap Any Zoom Dual Prism Telephoto—designed to make advanced imaging more accessible to everyday users.

The company’s Universal Tone technology, developed with input from color science experts, is designed to improve the accuracy and inclusivity of skin tone representation in smartphone photography. According to the University of Leeds, TECNO is collaborating with its School of Design to advance the application of colour science in multi-skin tone imaging systems, aiming to ensure people of all skin tones are represented accurately in photos. The project is led by Dr Kaida Xiao, Associate Professor in Colour and Imaging Science, who also serves as TECNO’s technical advisor on color science and skin tone image technology. This collaboration supports the development of more inclusive, true-to-life portrait imaging for TECNO smartphone users worldwide.

As reported by Amateur Photographer and Trendy Gadget, Universal Tone uses a combination of spectral data and AI-powered algorithms to capture a wider range of skin tones and provide personalized portrait enhancements.

Thank you for your consideration. I welcome any feedback or suggestions. David Chan 99 (talk) 04:35, 25 June 2025 (UTC) David Chan 99 (talk) 04:35, 25 June 2025 (UTC)

 Not done. This is promotional writing and not appropriate for an encyclopedia article. See WP:NPOV, WP:NOTPROMO. - MrOllie (talk) 12:12, 25 June 2025 (UTC)

Thank you for your previous feedback regarding promotional language and the need for a neutral, encyclopedic tone (per WP:NPOV and WP:NOTPROMO). In response, we have fully rewritten the proposed updates to remove all promotional or subjective language, focusing only on independently verifiable facts and ensuring all statements are attributed to reliable, third-party sources.

== Proposed update: Company Overview == TECNO is a mobile phone manufacturer established in 2006 and headquartered in Shenzhen, China. It is a subsidiary of Transsion Holdings and primarily serves markets in Africa, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and South Asia. The company produces smartphones, wearables, laptops, tablets, smart home devices, and also operates its own HiOS operating system.

== Proposed update: Imaging and AI Technology == In 2024, TECNO was reported to have introduced three new imaging technologies—TECNO Image Matrix (TIM), EVS Dynamic Snapshot, and Tap Any Zoom Dual Prism Telephoto—at the Future Lens event in Chongqing. TECNO has also collaborated with the University of Leeds School of Design to research inclusive smartphone photography, focusing on the representation of diverse skin tones in images. Independent reviews have noted that TECNO’s Universal Tone technology uses a combination of spectral data and AI-powered algorithms to capture a wider range of skin tones in smartphone photography.

Thank you for your consideration. If there are any further concerns or suggestions, I am happy to make additional revisions. David Chan 99 (talk) 07:41, 2 July 2025 (UTC) David Chan 99 (talk) 07:41, 2 July 2025 (UTC)

Hi Wikipedia community, can I have a follow-up on these update suggestions please? David Chan 99 (talk) 13:45, 25 July 2025 (UTC)

 Not done. Wikipedia this is still clearly promotion. In general, routine product releases or reviews will not be part of an encyclopedic treatment of the subject - this isn't a venue to announce your products. - MrOllie (talk) 14:01, 25 July 2025 (UTC)

Thank you for your previous feedback and guidance on maintaining a strictly neutral and encyclopedic approach. In response, I have further revised the proposed update to focus solely on broader industry trends and independently reported context, removing all promotional language and routine product announcements.

Proposed update:

== Flip and Foldable Devices ==

In 2024, several independent sources reported on TECNO’s development of a tri-foldable phone concept, reflecting growing interest among Chinese manufacturers in new smartphone form factors.

Partly done The tri-foldable phone section is still promotional in tone, specifically this bit reflecting growing interest among Chinese manufacturers in new smartphone form factors. Some reviewers noted the company’s adoption of AI-powered features and software tools in recent foldable models. I've added a modified version without this to the article.

Hello, besides the previous request, I am submitting an edit request to standardize all mentions of the brand name in the TECNO Wikipedia article to “TECNO” (all caps), in line with the company’s official rebranding as of 2021. This adjustment would improve consistency and accuracy throughout the article.

Current introduction:

Tecno Mobile is a Chinese mobile phone manufacturer based in Shenzhen, China. It was established in 2006. It is a subsidiary of Transsion Holdings.

Proposed introduction:

TECNO is a Chinese mobile phone manufacturer based in Shenzhen, China. It was established in 2006. It is a subsidiary of Transsion Holdings.

Current history section:

In 2006, TECNO Mobile was founded as Tecno Telecom Limited, but later changed its name to Transsion Holdings with TECNO Mobile as one of its subsidiaries. In 2007, TECNO created a second brand, Itel that sold in Africa. In early 2008, TECNO focused entirely to Africa following market research, and by 2010, it was among the top three mobile phone brands in Africa.

Proposed history section:

In 2006, TECNO was founded as Tecno Telecom Limited, later changing its name to Transsion Holdings with TECNO as one of its subsidiaries.

In early 2008, TECNO focused entirely on Africa following market research, and by 2010, it was among the top three mobile phone brands in Africa.

Rationale:

The official branding and stylization as “TECNO” (all caps) was adopted by the company in 2021. The current article inconsistently uses “Tecno Mobile”, “TECNO Mobile”, and “TECNO”. Standardizing to “TECNO” ensures consistency and accuracy throughout the article.
