Tecno Phantom V Flip Leaks Detail Specs, Circular Cover Screen
The leaked Tecno Phantom V Flip has a unique circular external display and dual cameras.
The matrix can have a 64-megapixel autofocus lens and the screen size is 1.32 inches.
The foldable smartphone is said to have a 6.9-inch display and a 3900mAh battery.
The V Flip is rumored to arrive in October.
Techno is bringing more than just a book-style foldable phone to consumers this year, as new leaks give us a glimpse of what the phone can offer.
Rumors from Newsley suggest that the Tecno Phantom V Flip will come with a circular external display surrounding a circular dual-camera array (via PriceBaba). According to the publication, the Matrix will have a 64-megapixel autofocus lens and a 13-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens off the screen.
The unique round AMOLED V inverted external display can scale up to 1.32 inches according to the requested specifications. In the leak, the phone is said to have a 6.9-inch AMOLED display with a 32-megapixel V-Flip camera with a punch hole in the middle.
The foldable model could be powered by a mid-range MediaTek Dimensity 8050 SoC instead of the same 9000 Plus chipset that powers the Vfold. In addition, the foldable model may have dual batteries of 1165mAh and 2735mAh, giving the V Flip a total battery capacity of 3900mAh, which is slightly larger than the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5.
In terms of memory, the V Flip can have a combination of one RAM and 8/256 GB of internal storage. The leak also suggests that the device could follow a number of foldable phones that lack an external memory card for extra storage.
On the software front, customers may have to settle for skins like the V Fold for Android 13 and HiOS 13. Finally, the V Flip is said to come in Little Black, Film White, and Periwinkle Purple colors.
This is not the first time that information about the phone has been leaked: earlier this year, live images of the phone appeared on Weibo with a periwinkle purple color. The phone is also called the Phantom V Yoga, though it's unclear if that moniker will stick.
Unfortunately, no specific launch date has been set, although Tecno is expected to start the V Flip ad campaign in September. Based on this, the device is said to be officially launched in October. Since the V Fold was first released in India, the V Flip is likely to follow the same logic before heading to other global markets.
PriceBaba admits that there could be a price of £50,000 for the V Flip in India, or around $600. Since the Tecno Phantom V Fold positions itself as an "affordable" book-style folding model, the company may take a similar approach.
