Tecno Malaysia, through its official Facebook page, has announced that its Phantom X smartphone is now being offered at a reduced price of RM 999. According to the company, the offer is effective starting today via its official online store on Shopee, as well as authorised distributors nationwide.
For those who missed it, the Tecno Phantom X was initially launched in Malaysia back in May of last year. The phone packs a 6.7-inch AMOLED curved display with 1080 x 2340 pixel resolution, 90 Hz refresh rate, and a pill-shaped camera cutout. It also features an under-display fingerprint scanner, loudspeakers, a 3.5 mm headphone jack, and a USB-C 2.0 port. As for design, the phone has a vertical triple camera setup on the centre of its rear panel, which is available in two colour options: Van Gogh Sky Blue and Monet Summer Sunset.
Under the hood of the device is a MediaTek Helio G95 chipset that is paired together with a Mali G76 MC4 GPU, as well as a single memory configuration of 8 GB RAM and 256 GB internal storage. For a boost in performance, the Phantom X also comes with the built-in ability to expand up to an additional 3 GB of RAM by converting an equivalent amount of storage into virtual memory.
Features-wise, it comes with Android 11 via HIOS 7.6, GPS, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity, an FM radio function, but lacks NFC support. Besides that, the phone is equipped with a 4,700 mAh battery with 33 W wired fast charging, which Tecno claims is able to top-up 70% of its power in just 30 minutes.
In terms of imaging, the triple camera setup on the back of the Tecno Phantom X consists of a 50 MP f/1.9 primary, a 13 MP f/2.4 50 mm telephoto with 2x optical zoom, and an 8 MP f/2.3 ultra-wide. Meanwhile, housed within the pill-shaped cutout on its display is a 48 MP f/2.2 primary front-facing camera, and an 8 MP f/2.2 ultra-wide shooter.
As mentioned earlier, the Phantom X is now sold at RM 999, which is quite a significant reduction of its initial launch price of RM 1,499. Answering our query, Tecno Malaysia said the price change is only offered for a limited time, although a permanent change is still possible depending on the market.
