The Tecno Phantom X curved AMOLED display flagship has officially launched in India at Rs 25,999, making it one of the most feature-rich phones in its price bracket. With a 90Hz curved AMOLED panel, a 50MP triple rear camera, dual front cameras, and 33W fast charging capable of hitting 50% in just 20 minutes, the Phantom X punches well above its price tag.
Tecno Phantom X Curved Display and Design
The Tecno Phantom X sports a 6.7-inch full-HD+ (1,080×2,340 pixels) curved AMOLED display with a 19.5:9 aspect ratio and a smooth 90Hz refresh rate. The display features a 70-degree bend on both the left and right sides, lending it the premium curved-edge look typically reserved for much pricier devices. Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protection keeps the screen safe from everyday scratches and minor drops. The phone measures 163.5×73.78×8.72mm and is available in Iceland Blue and Summer Sunset colour options.
Performance, Storage, and Software
Under the hood, the Phantom X runs on an octa-core MediaTek Helio G95 SoC paired with a Mali-G76 GPU and 8GB LPDDR4X RAM. TECNO also supports virtual RAM expansion up to 5GB, effectively giving the device up to 13GB of addressable RAM for smoother multitasking. The phone ships with 256GB of UFS 2.1 internal storage, expandable up to 512GB via a microSD card. It runs Android 11 with HiOS 8.0 out of the box.
Camera System
Photography is a key highlight of the Phantom X. The triple rear camera setup comprises:
- 50MP primary sensor with laser autofocus
- 13MP ultra-wide shooter
- 8MP macro (micro) shooter
Software features include a 108MP Ultra HD Mode, Super Night Mode, AI Portrait, and Burst Shot. Video capabilities extend to 4K recording and 960fps slow-motion capture. On the front, a dual selfie camera setup houses a 48MP primary sensor and an 8MP ultra-wide shooter, both backed by dual LED flash — ideal for well-lit selfies even in low light.
Battery and Charging
The Phantom X is backed by a 4,700mAh Li-polymer battery with support for 33W fast charging. TECNO claims the bundled 33W adapter can recharge the battery to 50% in just 20 minutes, which is a strong result for this price range.
Connectivity and Sensors
Connectivity options include 4G VoLTE, dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0, GPS/A-GPS, and a USB Type-C port. The Phantom X features an in-display fingerprint sensor alongside an accelerometer, ambient light sensor, gyroscope, magnetometer, and proximity sensor. The device uses a dual-SIM (Nano) configuration.
