TECNO is pushing the boundaries in foldable technology by introducing its new concept, PHANTOM ULTIMATE 2, which includes an ultra-thin, tri-fold smartphone. It will have the potential to deliver a large-screen experience inside an incredibly compact form factor that will set a new benchmark in the foldable market.
Revolutionary design and form factor
The PHANTOM ULTIMATE 2 is the thinnest triple-foldable smartphone ever; with an extremely thin profile, only 11 mm when folded, it yields a glossy fancy look. Opening it up reveals a dazzling 10-inch screen with Touch and Display Driver Integration (TDDI) technology for the first time in foldable devices. The new tech thus allows seamless transformation of the smartphone into a tablet-like device and offers users the best of both worlds.
Unmatched slimness and durability
TECNO engineers delivered the most up-to-date work in foldable design today, keeping the device slim with an innovative hinge system that maintains a thickness of just 11 mm even when folded, making it slimmer than many bi-fold models on the market.
In addition, TECNO used Titan Advanced Fiber material to create the battery cover, making it the thinnest in the industry at just 0.25 mm. Being ultra-thin does not compromise its strength; it is durable enough to make the gadget resistant to everyday mechanical impacts.
Innovative display and hinge mechanism
The PHANTOM ULTIMATE 2 unfolds to a perfect 10-inch, 4:3-ratio tablet, just ideal for immersive media consumption. The screen, really, is a showstopper: a 3K LTPO with 392 PPI, which means that the visuals would look vivid and details crisp. TECNO crafted the hinge, an essential element in any foldable, from a 2100MPa-strength material, allowing it to withstand over 300,000 folds and ensuring it lasts longer without creasing.
Enhanced user experience
Apart from hardware innovation, PHANTOM ULTIMATE 2 is about bringing in a better user experience. It supports screen hovering, allowing users to type on a keyboard with the screen still standing upright, just like using a laptop. Besides, it supports tent mode for dual-screen face-to-face AI translation and multi-window for efficient multitasking.
Also, TECNO has optimized the software and user interface for the tri-fold design, bringing in dynamic wallpapers, adaptive icons, and even layouts that would change depending on how the device is used. For sure, these enhance the PHANTOM ULTIMATE 2 from a concept device to at least a peek into the future of foldable smartphones.
