The PHANTOM X2 Series, which comprises PHANTOM X2 Pro 5G and PHANTOM X2 5G comprises a host of groundbreaking features and outstanding performance.
With a 65mm focal length, 2.5x optical zoom retractable portrait lens, the PHANTOM X2 Pro 5G revolutionizes image-making in the smartphone industry.
The innovative lens empowers users to capture portraits comparable to professional camera shots with just a pocket-sized device.
Available in an Eco-Friendly Edition featuring a pioneering microfiber back cover made from recycled plastics, the X2 Pro 5G also raises the bar for sustainable design in the industry.
Both the PHANTOM X2 Pro 5G and the PHANTOM X2 5G are powered by MediaTek’s Dimensity 9000 4nm 5G chip.
The series also features a unique unibody double-curved built and a 3.5D lunar crater design in three mysterious, space-inspired colors, resulting in an eye-catching look and a comfortable feel.
“TECNO has always been pushing to uncover the latest and best premium technologies. As PHANTOM’s new flagship smartphone, the PHANTOM X2 Series brings the PHANTOM brand to the high-end market with a pioneering spirit of innovation, inside and out,” said Tecno Mobile Kenya’s brand manager Anthony Brian Otieno.
The highlight of the PHANTOM X2 Pro 5G’s four exceptional cameras is the innovative retractable portrait lens, a technological breakthrough that lowers the threshold for “studio-like” portrait photography.
While its retractable nature ensures the phone remains slim and light, the 65mm lens’ 2.5x optical zoom, large F1.49 aperture and shallow 18.9cm depth of field create a stunningly pure optical bokeh for breathtaking portraiture, as showcased in a series of portraits captured by professional photographer, Rankin, whose portfolio ranges from portraiture to documentary.
The PHANTOM X2 Series includes the PHANTOM X2 Pro 5G Eco-Friendly Edition. This special edition features a pioneering environmentally friendly back cover, constructed by recycling materials recovered from the ocean.
Matching many models of laptops and tablet computers, the PHANTOM X2 Series boasts up to 12GB RAM and 256GB memory.
The PHANTOM X2 Series will be available to purchase from the Tecno official stores on Jumia, Safaricom PLC retail outlets, Tecno website and Tecno retail stores. The Recommended Retail Price for PHANTOM X2-Sh67,999 (USD 548) and PHANTOM X2 Pro-Sh 82,999 (USD 669)
