Photo Almost complete announcement of Tecno Phantom V Fold - another tablet-smartphone

Tecno has announced its first smartphone tablet Tecno Phantom V Fold at the MWC in Barcelona. By the way, even a press release was sent. True, without specifications and without normal photos. Well, yes. "And for what purpose are you interested?" So I had to look for all the data from the first preliminary review, since they have already appeared. But I can't vouch for their accuracy.

According to the concept, we have a repetition of Samsung Galaxy Z Fold4, Tecno did not come up with anything fundamentally new. Two screens. External - standard "smartphone" - 6.42" (95 cm²). And internalflexible "tablet" - 7.85" (197 cm²). A first look from Mobile-Review claims that Phantom V Fold is the first smartphone with a flexible screen from TCL. And yes , that's interesting.More manufacturers of flexible screens - lower their cost.

AMOLED screens, up to 120Hz refresh rate (both LTPOs, it seems). As usual, the outer screen is very elongated, while the inner one is almost square. The resolution seems to be 1080x2550 (431 ppi) and 2000x2296 (388 ppi), respectively. Those. tall.

Powerful chipset, MediaTek Dimensity 9000+. In the above first glance, the test copy of the device scored a little less900 thousand parrots, which is even somewhat strange. Usually vehicles at Dimensity 9000+ confidently exceed one million.

Memory. 12 GB RAM. The constant, apparently, will be 256/512 GB (the existence of the older version is still in question). Support for memory cards, of course, no.

The battery is bigger than the Koreans - 5000 mAh. The charging speed seems to be 45 W, but this is not accurate.

There are two front cameras, one for each of the screens. It seems to be 32 MP for external and 16 MP for internal. But it is possible that the opposite is also true.

There are three "main" cameras �Knuckles, 50+50+13 MP. Main, wide-angle, telephoto (either 2X or 3X).

Other. There is an NFC module, a sixth Wi-Fi, Type-C, a Hall sensor. The fingerprint scanner, which is logical, is located somewhere on the side.

How much Tecno Phantom V Fold will cost is yet to be announced. But it definitely won't be cheap.
