PHANTOM ULTIMATE 2 Overview -

Ultra-Thin Tri-Fold Design -

The PHANTOM ULTIMATE 2 transforms from a regular smartphone into a tablet-like device through its tri-fold design. Despite its versatility, it maintains a slim profile thanks to an innovative hinge that keeps the thickness at just 11mm, making it slimmer than many current bi-fold models.

The battery cover, made from advanced Titan Advanced Fiber material, is the industry’s thinnest at only 0.25mm, ensuring both durability and a streamlined design. The camera system is also optimized to keep the device lightweight without compromising on image quality.

Large, Durable Screen with Advanced Features -

The PHANTOM ULTIMATE 2 expands from a 6.48-inch smartphone to a 10-inch tablet with a 4:3 aspect ratio. It boasts an OLED Touch and Display Driver Integration (TDDI) screen, along with a 3K LTPO display with 392 PPI resolution. The hinge is engineered to withstand over 300,000 folds, ensuring the device's longevity and a smooth, crease-free display.

Versatile Use and Optimized UI -

This device supports screen hovering, allowing users to type on a keyboard while using the screen upright in a laptop-like display. It also offers a tent mode for dual-screen, face-to-face AI translation, and a multi-window mode for efficient multitasking. The software and UI are specifically optimized for the tri-fold design, featuring dynamic wallpapers, adaptive icons, and layouts tailored to various use cases.

TECNO’s Innovation and Upcoming Foldables -

The PHANTOM ULTIMATE 2 showcases TECNO’s dedication to pushing the boundaries of foldable technology, following the success of their previous innovations like the PHANTOM Ultimate rolling screen concept. Although a release date for the PHANTOM ULTIMATE 2 has not been announced, this concept hints at exciting developments in the foldable market, where competitors like HUAWEI and Xiaomi are also making strides.

This tri-fold device marks TECNO’s commitment to advancing foldable solutions, with further innovations expected in the upcoming PHANTOM V Fold2 5G and PHANTOM V Flip2 5G models.
