Tecno Android Announcement

This is Tecno's first foldable - the Phantom V Fold.

Right off the bat, this is a big folding phone. At 299g, it's nearly the biggest. It can justify that heft with at least three good reasons - display, even bigger display, and battery.

When closed, you'll use the Tecno Phantom V Fold's cover display, which is a regularly wide 6.42-inch LTPO AMOLED of 1080x2550px resolution. It caps off at 120Hz.

Open the Phantom V Fold up, and you're greeted by a bigger 7.85-inch 2000x2296px folding screen, this one also a 120Hz LTPO panel. It's quite a bit bigger than the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold4's display, though not as big as the ones on the Xiaomi Mix Fold 2, Honor's Magic Vs, or vivo's X Fold+.
