My Review of The Phantom 5 by Marvell23(m): 11:07pm On Nov 19, 2015 |
The phantom 5 as we all know has been in the market for some weeks now. I decided to get one for myself to actually know if it's worth the hype it's generating in the media. It's over two weeks now since I bought the phantom 5. So let's start with the review What you get in the box A flip cover with a microSIM adapter and ejector HIFI earphones and Charger Warranty card, user manual and a palmchat starter card Behold The Awesome design It comes with a metalic finish that is beautifully crafted,sleek and elegant. Each time I brought out the phone in the public it gets stares. People always ask which phone is this, my answer is it's the latest Tecno flagship of the year and is called Phantom 5 Excellent Display The phone features a 5.5 inch LCD, full HD display with a pixel density of 401ppi. The screen is protected by corny gorilla glass 3. Pictures appear so vivid and colourful. It's great in watching movies. The touch screen fluidity is out of this world just like the one you find on the IPhone. People who handle the phone attest to the fact that touch screen is excellent .I tested the multi-touch capability , it recognises the ten fingers I place on it. This is an area I found the Tecno phantom 5 clearly above the Elephone P7000 which isn't fluid when scrolling through web pages The King of Entertainment The phantom 5 boasts of quality audio output both from the speakers and the HIFI headphones. To be honest with you guys, this is one of the best headphones I have used so far. The Dolby sound system does the work amazingly well. I compared the audio quality with tecno boom J7, and it outmatches the Boom J7 in audio rendition There are music player and boom player music app being developed by Tecno on the phantom 5 too. The boom player takes of the entertainment bit by providing access to music from African artists as well as global stars. The tecno ownthestage show can also be watched live from the boom player app I plugged it to my home theater and the quality of the sound was just too amazing. I was blown away. If you have got the phantom 5 ,try it out on your home theatre and see for yourself. Amazing Cameras It comes with 13MP rear camera with dual flash and 8MP front camera with flash. The speed of the camera is very fast, capable of capturing fast -moving objects. The cameras has been so impressive for me. I wasn't expecting this level of quality grade from the camera looking back at Tecno camera in the past. I took some pictures with both the front and back cameras, you can judge by yourself Multitasking and gaming made Easy It comes with a 64-bit octa -core processor clocked at 1.3Ghz paired with 3GB of RAM. Apps and games run smoothly. I opened like 38 apps and no lag was experienced. I left it over night and was amazed to see GTA and FIFA 14 resumed without lag Storage It has 32GB of internal memory and can be extended to 128GB external Fingerprint Security The presence of fingerprint technology on the phantom 5 is tecno's first. I must say i enjoy using this feature every time and is becoming part of me. Infact I at times put my finger on the back camera of my infinix Hot note mistaking it for fingerprint sensor. The fingerprint sensor works well and can store up to five fingerprints Battery The battery for me is averagely ok . It takes me almost a day on constant usage. My Opinion The phone seems to work perfectly for me nw.No wonder it's generating so much buzz in the media.I believe it's worth the price it's been sold. I will gladly recommend it for anyone that can afford it. what do you guys thinks about this phone? Feel free to ask me any questions about the phone

"""I opened like 38 apps and no lag was experienced. I left it over night and was amazed to see GTA and FIFA 14 resumed without lag""" Even s6 edge can't do this. And most phones even below 70k can do all these stuffs. talk thru, you work for tecno abi? 3 Likes |

I like the data management part. Gionee M3 mini also has it. Any Phone that fails to have this important feature in a data draining Android OS has not really began. . 1 Like |

Nobody is doubting the capability of Phantom 5, after all it has a 3gb ram 2.0ghz Octa-core 64bit so basically it's an excellent device but the the bottom line here is that it is overpriced simple! There are many Chinese phones with world wide recognition while Tecno is still unknown outside Africa, those Chinese companies offer better specs and performance yet below 50k. If Tecno wants to go premium like samsung, Sony, apple etc issokay but this is not the right way and certainly not the right time. 15 Likes 2 Shares |

Awesome phone. It works great all the time, never freezes and works as more than just a phone, Great apps too. |
Re: My Review of The Phantom 5 by kolexepana: 10:55am On Nov 20, 2015 |
Tecno has set the standard for smartphones! half the reason to get it is because you would have the Boom player at your fingertips. |
Re: My Review of The Phantom 5 by Marvell23(m): 11:16am On Nov 20, 2015 |
Kamaye:Yes I know that bro. But do these OEMs pay taxes in Nigeria, do they pay workers. In the case of Tecno do you know how many retail outlets they have? Each of the retail outlets employ Nigerians. If you are comparing OEMs, compare the one that does business here in Nigeria with service centres |
