1. An Ota can always fix that, it's not an issue
2. Nowadays, which flagship phone comes out with 5.0" of screen. You just have to follow the large the trend.
3. This should be added, even xiaomi phones that are cheaper comes with a finger print scanner. It has become a norm for flagship phones to have a fingerprint scanner.
4.This should be improved in their phantom 8
5.Hope you know that the inclusion of this feature will lead ultimately to the increase of the price of the phone. It is a welcomed improvement though but it is not compulsory.









1. hopefully, considering that tecno does not have a reputation for updating thier phones.
2. s7 = 5.1 inch with slim bezels
iphone 7 = 4.7 inch
google pixel = 5.0 inch
htc 10 = 5.2 inch

Lol. Are u familiar with screen-to-body ratio on phones? Some phones are actually smaller than the actual size. Example is the S7 edge, Xiaomi Mi Mix while some phones are bigger than the actual size cos of poor screen to body ratio and huge bezels. Examples are iphones


@op how can phantom be on 7.1 when pixels just stated receiving the update. Easy with lies nah

do you know pixel was not the first phone to come with android nougat? then you'll know its possible. all they need is at source.android.com

PhonePlanet:
1. Android 7.1 Nougat
The new version of android offers a lot of useful features and had one of the longest list of changelog among all android versions ever released. The version of android had been released for a long time enough for tecno to program it for the phantom 6 which was released late this year.

2. Smaller screen version.
Tecno released two screen versions, 5.5 inch and 6.0 inch. Knowing that not everybody is a fan of big screen, this is not an option because they are both big screens! Anybody that can use a 5.5 inch could as well settle for a 6.0 inch and vice versa. But a 5.0 inch phantom 6 could had made a whole lot sense.

3. Finger print reader (phantom 6)
The phantom 6 (not Plus) did not come with a finger print reader, and for a 90k Plus phone, it is a no no. The phantom 6 however has iris scanner which is far more time wasting and less accurate than a finger print reader.

4 . Better design (phantom 6 Plus)
Phantom 6 design was on point, phantom 6 Plus was not. Phantom 6 Plus could had been more sleeker like than phantom 6 if not more. Mobile phones play a big role in our fashion and style, and a good looking phone is needed, knowing the way people look at our hands today.

5. Water proof
Almost every flagship of 2016 came water proofed sadly not Tecno's Phantom line. We have gone pass the days of having to wrap your phone in a nylon when it's raining, or having panic when you spill a drink on your phone probably during meals. In the phantom 6 case, you'll still have to open up the phone and keep it under hot sun, then pray that nothing goes wrong with it.

Op
This one no really concern us
Personally i think the waterproof feature is totally unnecessary since anybody with common sense knows to avoid nearing water with your phone
And Op
Which one be fashion again
And you know they are also folks who prefer big screens

Your point is pointless. 7.1 is different frm 7 0 even tho they are both nougat. Viewers who know nothing will conclude phantom is on 7.1 which isn't true. So learn to write the actual facts about things.

There's a difference between "water-resistant" and "water-proof". Go learn.

I've been using a Tecno W4 for a month and two weeks now.

The fone boasts of a 1gig RAM but since I unboxed it even before downloading one single app, the available RAM for use is always less than 300mb

too much bloatware.

please how do I root it?

or who can do it?

nothing I hate more than a phone that lags.

even the tecno L5 I used before this performed better.

tecno should up their game cos I honestly feel I ain't getting my money's worth.

You can choose to look at what could have been instead of looking at what it is. The device is excellent as it is. Too much ingredients dey spoil soup

You guys just want perfection, even your favorite brands are not perfect. Not withstanding , getting the P6 is a good deal. A device can't have everything. Not possible

The Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge stand up to water better than the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus, but not without sustaining permanent damage, according to the latest torture tests published Monday gadget-warranty outfit SquareTrade.

Have u experienced the device, I bet you haven't , the 2700mah lasts longer than most 3000mah battery coz of the technology advancement Tecno imbibed for the P6. The display makes the battery lasts longer. It optimizes the battery life.

dude that was a torture test. are like they said, only the speaker had problems. in the vid i posted, for a phone to stay in a cup of water overnight, if that is not water proof then i dont know what that is. the htc 10 is water resistant but cannot be in water for half that long.
