The renowned Chinese smartphone company Tecno launched the second iteration of its Phantom Fold series, the Tecno Phantom V Fold 2, in Bangladesh on March 4, 2025. The phone is a stylistic and performative overhaul of its predecessor and a redefining addition to the luxury Fold market. Let’s find out the key specs, pros, cons, and pricing of the Tecno Phantom V Fold 2 in Bangladesh. Key Features of the Tecno Phantom V Fold 2 The Tecno Phantom V Fold 2 is Tecno's second attempt to claim a position in the premium Fold smartphone market, competing with the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold6, OnePlus Open, Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold, and Honor Magic V2.  Here is a comparative review to evaluate the Tecno Phantom V Fold 2’s worth as a contender. Aesthetics and Design The Tecno Phantom V Fold 2 unboxes a sausage-like design, much similar to Samsung’s Fold series. But this time, Tecno has replaced the mass-criticized design of the previous Phantom V Fold with an appreciable aesthetic. The phone comes in two colour choices: Karst Green and Rippling Blue, each with distinct sensory details. The Rippling Blue option has a soft vegan leather finish on the rear, whereas the Karst Green gives a solid rigid touch all around. When folded, the Phantom Fold 2 measures 159 by 72.2 by 11.8-12 mm, which makes it the tallest foldable smartphone to date, followed by Honor’s 156.7 mm Magic V2. It unfolds into a full-fledged tablet that measures 159 by 140.4 by 6.1 mm. In terms of width, the phone sits among the backbenchers, only topping the 132.6 mm wide Samsung Galaxy Z Fold6.  Read more: Which phones are getting One UI 7 first and when Ergonomically, the Phantom V Fold 2 allows a comfortable grip and manoeuvre. The rounded corners of the mainframe and bevels around the camera panel are a bit edgy but synchronous with the phone's rectangular thematic approach. The aluminium mainframe has protective glass and is certified IP54 for dust and water splash resistance. Users will find the fingerprint-sensing power button on the right side, at the thumb reach from a usual hand grip. The weight distribution feels balanced; however, the phone is heavier at 249 g than most competitors, only outweighed by the Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold’s 257 g. Display The Tecno Phantom V Fold 2 uses LTPO AMOLED panels for its 7.85-inch foldable and 6.42-inch cover displays. These panels are justifiable at Fold2’s price, but they are less performative than the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold6’s AMOLED 2X and the Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold’s LTPO OLED panels.  The Fold 2's foldable screen is a 2000 by 2296 pixels panel capable of rendering acceptable visuals compared to the Samsung Fold 6’s 1856 by 2160 pixels panel while keeping an 88.2% screen-to-body ratio.

Camera The Tecno Phone Fold 2's rear camera panel houses a 50MP (f/1.9) wide, a 50MP (f/2.0) ultrawide, and a 50MP (f/2.2) telephoto lens with 2x zoomability. While the Fold 2 may not offer 5x zoom like the Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold or a 64MP telephoto lens like the OnePlus Open, it still captures decent-quality images for a Fold phone. The Fold 2 presents two 32MP (f/2.5) lenses as the selfie and cover camera. Both lenses struggle to capture details from the source and modify the images with an AI selfie enhancer. The AI modifier does a poor job at it and whitens images only to make them pale without adding complementary liveliness. However, the front cameras distinctively outperform the 4MP selfie and 10 MP cover camera offered by the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold6 and the 10MP selfie and cover lenses of the Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold. The primary cameras can record videos at 4K resolution and 30 fps frame rate. Most Fold smartphones offer the same videography, except the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold6, standing alone with its 8K recorders.

The processor is powered by a 3.20 GHz Cortex-X2, three 2.85 GHz Cortex-A710, and four 1.80 GHz Cortex-A510 cores. Though Dimensity 9000+ is a two-year-old chipset, its 4nm architecture is still relevant because chipsets of all the top-of-the-line Folds share the same 4nm architectural build. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold6, the OnePlus Open, and the Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold integrate state-of-the-art Snapdragon and Tensor CPUs—all are of 4nm type, but with upgraded Cortex cores like Cortex-X4 and X3. Unlike other Folds, which have a dynamic range of memory options, the Tecno Fold 2 offers a single variant with 512GB internal storage and 12GB RAM. The fusion of vast memory and agile central and graphical processing units allows for a high-end gaming experience. It has an overall AnTuTu benchmark score of 11,58,040 and a GeekBench score of 4,327, which is more than enough for versatile gaming without generating considerable heat.

It features several unique features, such as dynamic always-on-display widgets, clean and pristine folder and app management, anti-theft functionalities, and smooth navigation. The phone offers 2 years of software updates. A 3-year update would be more contending, especially when the Samsung Fold offers updates for a 7-year duration. Battery and Charger The Tecno Fold 2 stands apart by providing an enduring 5,750 mAh battery, complemented by a breakneck 70W wired charger that refills 50% of a depleted battery within 20 minutes and 100% within 49 minutes. It far exceeds the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold6’s 4,400 mAh and the Pixel Fold 9 Pro’s 4,600 mAh battery capacity. The phone also offers a 15W wireless charging facility but lacks reverse charging.
