Tecno's Phantom V Fold 2 and Flip 2 leak with better designs, prices under ~$1,000
A new leak of the upcoming Tecno Phantom V Fold 2 and Flip 2 show off the new designs of the value-priced foldables.
Techno offers decent value for money but they need to ramp on their software support part. For some cheap devices, you had be lucky to get a single major Android upgrade.
It's cheap for a reason. Samsung's equivalent smartphone are more going to be more expensive in comparison.
I think there can still be some balance between updates and price points. I had a Nokia (by HMD) that received two major Android upgrades whilst my Techno phone remained on Android 12 only.
No one is asking for 4 or 7 years of support from Techno but something like 2 Android upgrades is not too much to ask.
Yeah, I'm sure all that bloatware is really expensive.
Are Tecno phones sold in your country or did you import one?
They are sold directly. They don't have a very significant market share but they are still a player.
Somehow I'm still surprised their target market can even afford 1000$ phones.
Aimed at emerging markets, Tecno has focused its business on the African, Middle Eastern, Southeast Asian, South Asian, Latin American, and Eastern European markets.
I wonder why won't they expand their markets, even just for the flip/fold series?
Telecomms have a lot of regulation involved in expansion, markets like Europe have tight restrictions on frequencies and bandwidths utilised.
Expanding into a market, in such a saturated industry is expensive and risky.
