Introducing the Tecno Phantom X2
category while still being more attainable than flagship monsters. It seeks to strike a balance: bold design, capable
cameras, and performance worthy for demanding users.
What Makes the Phantom X2 Stand Out
Sleek Display & Design
The Phantom X2 sports a 6.8-inch AMOLED display with a 120 Hz refresh rate, delivering smooth animations and
better visual fluidity. The screen uses Corning Gorilla Glass Victus for protection. In terms of dimensions, it is
fairly large and has some heft, but that’s expected when packing advanced internals and a big battery.
Power Under the Hood
At its core, the X2 uses the MediaTek Dimensity 9000 chipset (4 nm process). This gives it strong performance in
both everyday tasks and more demanding workloads like gaming and multitasking.
Camera System for Enthusiasts
Tecno equipped the Phantom X2 with a triple rear camera setup:
64 MP main sensor with OIS (optical image stabilization)
On the front, there's a 32 MP selfie camera, which should perform well in good lighting conditions. The inclusion
of OIS is a major plus for capturing sharper images, especially in low light or in motion.
Battery & Charging Experience
The phone comes with a 5,160 mAh battery, which is generous and should easily carry through a full day or more
under moderate usage. For charging, it supports 45 W wired fast charging. Tecno claims it can reach about 54% in
20 minutes under optimal conditions.
Software & Extras
Phantom X2 runs Android 12 under Tecno’s HiOS shell. It includes modern connectivity features: 5G support,
NFC, under-display fingerprint reader, and standard sensors (accelerometer, gyro, proximity, compass). One of its
more unique touches is a retractable portrait lens mechanism, which allows for 2.5× optical zoom in portrait mode,
giving it an edge in its class for creative photography.
Build, Materials & Aesthetic Touches
Tecno used a microfiber back cover (recycled material) in some versions, offering better grip and a less reflective
surface. The design carries premium cues—glass, curves, and a more refined build than typical budget or midrang
phones.
Where It Makes Sense — And Where It Stumbles
Strengths
The combination of AMOLED + 120 Hz gives the phone a premium feel in viewing and interaction.
The main camera with OIS + the retractable zoom lens gives it a competitive edge in photography, especially
for portrait. The Dimensity 9000 chipset is strong enough to handle demanding tasks, which helps justify the price.
Battery size is generous; 45 W charging, while not the absolute highest, is respectable.
Trade-offs / Weaknesses
The phone is not light — in your pocket, you’ll feel it.
45 W charging is decent but not class-leading in 2025, where many competitors push 60 W, 80 W or more.
Storage is not expandable (no microSD slot) — you must pick the internal storage variant you can live with.
Software update promises may be weaker than what more established global brands offer; how many years of
OS and security patches the X2 will get depends on your region and Tecno’s support policy.
Final Thoughts
The Tecno Phantom X2 is a bold step for the brand. It leans into premium features — OIS, retractable lens, high
refresh display, and a powerful chip — while still being pitched to markets where cost sensitivity matters.
For users who want “near-flagship feel without the full flagship price,” the Phantom X2 is a compelling choice.
Its camera innovations and performance make it suitable for creators, content consumers, and tech enthusiasts. But if
ultra-fast charging, ultra-slim body, or guaranteed long software support are your top priorities, check whether the
X2 meets those needs in your region.
