Hands-on Review And Photo Gallery: TECNO Phantom 5 by henry007(m): 5:35pm On Sep 18, 2015
I know you guys have been itching to have a closer look at the new TECNO Phantom 5. It has been a busy week for me here at MobilityArena.com, but I finally got to doing this. The Phantom 5 really is a well-crafted and gorgeous device that I fell in love with immediately.


Here are my impressions after using it for four (4) days:

This a beautifully crafted, all-metal smartphone that turns heads everywhere I have taken it.

The 5.5-inch display is vivid, smooth and very fluid.

The fingerprint scanner works like a charm. From sleep state, I put my finger on the scanner and the phone wakes up. No more tapping and swiping to wake up a phone. It is so much more convenient. You can programme up to ten (10) different fingerprints.

Audio from both the rear loudspeaker and bundled headphones is amazing. You know I am a sucker for great sounding music. Volume is very loud too. TECNO outdid itself here.

So far, the rear camera has been impressive too. I never expected this grade of photos, considering TECNO’s history with photography. I will be taking it for a spin and then bring you sample photos.

The Phantom 5 is zippy in use. The quad-core processor and 3GB RAM combination works well.

It is dual SIM and also 4G/LTE compliant: I have my regular mobile line and my Smile 4G data SIM in it. It is my first time of using 4G on any smartphone, and it has been a blissful experience.

Battery life: Very good. The Phantom 5 easily sees me through a day without 4G. With 4G on and active,battery life is sure to drop. I can’t give figures now, as I only just put my 4G SIM inside about 36 hours ago.


Quick Summary
The Phantom 5 is a paradigm shift for TECNO. This is unlike any other TECNO you have ever used. I am amazed and I am impressed. And, yes, I am keeping this baby for a long, long time.

Here is a gallery detailing the phone from all angles. I hope that you enjoy them.

I can't afford this sha, as much as I want it. Would prolly just stick with my Camon C8. Hopefully, this would drop soon. First time using a Tecno series that ain't a Phantom. Still kicking well.

Yes it does. But it already has that "cheap" status attached to it. This is why first impression on anything at all is very important.

Re: Hands-on Review And Photo Gallery: TECNO Phantom 5 by Shinchika: 3:20pm On Sep 25, 2015
I very well agree with you. But a friend made me see that they may not have been for 'cheap' but 'affordable'. He thinks the Phantom is affordable compared to it's alternative, maybe he has a point. -shrugs-

Damn straight. Superior processors and GPU matters much more than a mere dazzling exterior - Snapdragon and Samsung-made Exynos chipset floors their Mediatek competition any day... but I guess a non-tech savvy Nigerian lady wouldn't understand such.
