Tecno just introduced its Phantom V Flip – the company's first clamshell foldable smartphone. It has a circular external OLED screen with two cameras and an LED flash in the ring around it, while on the inside is a 6.9” foldable LTPO AMOLED display.
The Phantom V Flip is powered by a Mediatek Dimensity 8050 chipset with an octa-core CPU that goes as high as 3.0 GHz. It was announced with 256 GB storage and 8 GB RAM, expandable with up to 8 GB more through the Extended Memory software feature.
The 22:9 foldable panel supports a 120 Hz refresh rate and reaches 1,000 nits brightness. The 1.32" external display offers several widgets, serves notifications and can be used as a viewfinder for shooting selfies with the more capable cameras.
There is a 64 MP main camera with a 1/1.73” sensor, f/1.7 aperture lens and PDAF. The other is a 13 MP ultra-wide-angle shooter that also has autofocus.
The camera on the inside sits inside a punch hole and features a 32 MP sensor.
When unfolded, the device is 171 mm tall and under 7 mm thick, and Tecno placed a 4,000 mAh battery inside – a relatively big two-cell solution for the class. The phone supports 45W wired charging with the adapter provided in the retail box, and Tecno claimed only 15 minutes would be enough to fill the battery halfway.
The Tecno Phantom V Flip features a custom personal assistant called EllaGPT, which brings “intelligent features”, which is Tecno's answer to Google, Siri, Bixby, or Celia.
Tecno is offering the phone in two colors – Black and Purple.
