Summary
- The Lava Icon features a 5.0-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, while the Tecno Camon CM has a larger 5.7-inch IPS LCD with a resolution of 720 x 1440 pixels, offering a slightly higher pixel density.

- Both smartphones have a 13 MP rear camera capable of 1080p video recording, but the Camon CM's f/2.0 aperture may provide better low-light performance, and it also boasts a 13 MP front camera, significantly higher than the Icon's 5 MP.
