As you may remember, the Chinese brand Tecno intends to show a smartphone in the form of a clamshell, it is also developing a concept smartphone with a rollable screen. We have their photos!
Tecno Phantom Ultimate has already been officially announced by the manufacturer, but unfortunately we did not see it at IFA. We only know that Tecno is working on it, and today we received confirmation of its existence in the form of photos. The source publishing the photos says that the device is 9.93 mm thick and extends in only 1.2-1.3 seconds. When unfolded, the On-cell AMOLED screen has a diagonal of 7.11 inches and a resolution of 2296x1596 pixels. You can also see a triple camera with parameters unknown for now. There is no information about the production plans of the Phantom Ultimate. This is a concept for now and will remain a working prototype at best. So far, no manufacturer has dared to introduce this type of construction into production, so it is difficult to suspect a smaller player like Tecno. But who knows...?

In the case of photos of a mysterious clamshell smartphone, things are not so simple. The source only mentions that it is a "small company" model - but does not specify which one. Hence - I emphasize - the fact that I considered the device shown to be the upcoming model Tecno Phantom V Flip is based only on a hunch. Equally well, it could be a new Honor or Vivo smartphone - but would anyone use the phrase "small company" then ...? I guess,. that's irony. Assuming the lack of irony in the source tweet, we can conclude that Tecno "smoothed" the design of its flip a bit, giving the device a more elegant, slightly less original style. The secondary screen will remain round, but its frame will be more subtle. Thanks to the Google console, we know that Tecno Phantom V Flip will have a MediaTek Dimensity 1300 processor with an ARM Mali G77 graphics chip, at least 8 GB of RAM and an operating system Android 13. Earlier leaks mentioned that the main screen of the Tecno flip will be 6.75-inch with a refresh rate of 144 Hz and Full HD+ resolution, and the auxiliary - 1.32-inch with a resolution of 466 x 466 px. Both displays will be AMOLED. Selfie will provide a 32-megapixel camera in the hole of the main screen, and on the auxiliary screen we will see cameras with 64 and 13 Mpx matrices. The Phantom flip battery is to have a capacity of 4000 mAh and a charging power of 66 W, while the price of this smartphone in India is to be around 50,000 rupees, which translates to around 600 euros.
