Tecno Comes All Out with All-in-One Phantom 9
Tecno is indeed giving reasons for its being the most preferred brand of smartphone in Africa. When it launched Phantom 8 in 2017, it was simply yippee. There are some phone freaks that are still dying for it. Little did the folks know that the best of Tecno Phantom series is yet to be seen.
When Tecno announced the launch of the Phantom 9 in June 2019, the whole of telecommunication world caught a cold. Phantom 9 gave users a new definition of a smartphone. With a lot of amazing features, it’s a new dimension to the smartphone experience. One of the most exciting features that are unique to this new phone is the AI Triple Camera
It was launched in Lagos amidst pomp and pageantry and that gave a hint of what is to be expected of the product. During the launch, Mr. Jesse Oguntimehin, the Tecno PR and Strategic Partnership Manager, said: “This new device has been in the pipeline for a while. With the amazing AI Triple Camera plus other wonderful features, we are proud to say it was worth the wait. Photography enthusiasts and business professionals will find that Phantom 9 is a great addition to their work and entertainment toolbox.”
The Tecno Phantom Features
The AI Triple camera allows users to take immersive wide-angle shots of cityscapes, landscapes, and indoor architecture with all ease and naturalness. The Phantom 9 camera comes with Google Lens. This enables the smartphone to smartly identify any object as soon as it comes into the camera’s view. Equipped with this lens, the device will automatically display all the pertinent facts on the object in focus. Phantom 9 has three sensors. One is a 16-megapixel main sensor which has quad-LED and PDAF. The second one is with a two-megapixel depth of field lens while the lens of the third one is a large wide-angle lens of 8 megapixels. As for the selfie, the device has just one camera angle with 32megapixels. It has never been better in smartphone camera technology; it’s a completely new dimension.
Remarkable also is the Phantom 9 6GB RAM and 128GB internal memory. It is integrated with Power VR, GE8322 GPU. And the phones aesthetic properties are something else. The colourful aurora provides the inspirational beauty for the Phantom 9. The beauty from the sky above is visible from both the Northern and Southern hemispheres.

The device has AMOLED capacitive touchscreen with the crisp display of 5-7 inches and 84% screen to body.
