Unboxing The Tecno Phantom At OTEKBITS

The Phantom is the latest addition to the smartphone series from the growing Tecno brand. No doubt the brand is finally getting things right and winning at both markets – smart and feature phone. Quality has always been the issue with the brand and it seem to have shut up critics with the Phantom, even those these critic will be quick to jump to the fact of the look-alike nature of the phone to other brands like the Samsung Galaxy S3/S4 and the Google Nexus, but once upon a time it was Samsung looking like Apple in terms of hardware designs.

However, that’s gist for another, as this post is just a look at what’s in the box. We got a review unit, and have been playing with it for a while now and tweeting some reviews via our twitter handle. A comprehensive review is on the way but for now let’s just take a look at what’s in the box when you purchase a unit of the Tecno Phantom (also known as the F7), which has climbed up from N34,000 to N37,000 due to the high demand and scarcity.

First in, the main device, in this case the unit  comes in white, and comes two versions of back case – one with a cover flip and one without. There is also a power bank that can give up to 50% charge (on data) and perhaps a full charge off data.

Up here’s a white and black unit of the Tecno Phantom. Perhaps it’s now clearer which one looks like Samsung Galaxy S3/S4 and the Google Nexus. Interestingly enough the white version is more popular than the black. At the top of the front is the speakers and front camera with a 1.0 mega pixel resolution.

The Phantom also comes with a 8GB SD card so lots of space for apps, photos, videos, and music. There is also a 8.0 mega pixel camera at the back on the device, to capture quality photos and videos.

That’s all for now. Do stay tuned for the more comprehensive review of the Tecno Phantom, even though we’d already recommend you get yourself a unit as soon as possible.
