Honestly foldable phones coming down in price is a good thing, even if it’s not for everyone it will help push the market forward. Here as you often mention every phone brand has a folding phone and their prices are cheaper than Samsung but the more brands that release cheaper phones the more it will make them more accessible and compelling to all. Great vid!
the worst mistake you people made is to to be comparing China brand to Samsung brand it's wrong bcuz the difference is very clear do not compared other foldable phone to Samsung foldable phone
@@ghaniyuhammed5050 1. What do you mean you people? 2. Samsung have good software for the western market sure but their hardware is lacking because they don’t have competition. Other hardware brands have smaller creases on the screen, a hinge that allows the phone to fold flat without a gap in-between and some have better cameras and thinner designs. Competition from any manufacturer is good.
Thanks for this review. Personally, i think that you are the most frank, honest reviewer in yt. No fuss just direct to the point. Also, you have a practical approach to things. Looking forward to future vids.
I'd buy this before the other large foldables , simply for the aspect ratio on the front screen which is what I'll be using 90% of the time. This uses the same ratio as a typical phone and to me it fixes the only reason I haven't bought a foldable yet . The battery size is another reason I'd pick this over all other foldables.
Wow I must say I'm pretty impressed with techno coming out with a foldable I hope he comes to the US I will definitely pick it up even if it doesn't I'm still going to pick it up
Been watching you since your Huawei Freebuds Studio review. Love your gritty videos with just enough polish to show experience. Hope you don't change much ( and not get a boring studio like so many other tubers!). Keep up the hustle and evolve your style, don't change it!
This is soo unexpected! But simply wonderful and hopefully means that foldables are going to become more affordable sooner than we expect!👌 Thank you Sir Ben ✌👍
$1099 && $1222 -Engadget. That’s very good pricing. Bring competition to Samsung and other bigger manufacturers. Obviously software is always a factor.
7:45 I'm glad you said it! 😂 Right from the beginning I was like.. " Is it just me feeling that this phone copied/took inspiration from others and merely changed the camera layout ? " I mean there's nothing new rather the overall design.
The tech I was most excited about with the previews a few years ago. Tablet / phone. , Can't justify the premium prices of Samsung. So willing to accept a budget version at a reasonable price for my first foldable. Let's see what the release details are for this. Thanks for sharing .
I never expected this Brand will do foldable because here in Philippines the only sells Budget and Midrange Phones. I think the price of this will be at below 1Grand.
Foldable phone definitely will have it own tier sooner or later. Flagship and middle tier. Sooner or later everyone will have a foldable phone. After foldable phone.... rollable phone is going to the next big thing
You kinda repeated the - not a review, just a first impression, a little too many times. But it's nice to see more foldables in the market! Hopefully this outer screen ratio stays as Samsung one is oddly thin/tall. And may the overall price drop + more features!
The expected specs of the Tecno Phantom V Fold, including its powerful Mediatek Processor, have me excited for its launch. This device is expected to be a game-changer in the smartphone industry
If this is priced right, it'll be much better than the Honor Vs or the Z Fold. Those two are already at $1500. If they can price even under $1300 it'll be a killer foldable that most people can buy.
I never use my fold 4 half-bent so for me this one would be perfect. The crease is really annoying when you watch content like movies when the camera makes vertical movements.
I think what's curious is that these phones won't launch in either the US or the UK. Yet they have English as the language of choice for the packaging. Yeah other countries speak English, but just seems odd to me I guess.
Here in the Philippines Techno is known for their bang for the buck high spec for their uber cheap price phone ratio. So I'm expecting that this wont be any different. 🙃
I wish all these overseas phones would be available in the US already. It's almost like Samsung has a monopoly over folding phone options in the states.
We need Chinese foldable to go global to take on Samsung z fold. Recently I bought Tecno Phantom X which still sells for £350 for £150 I was mind blowing how good it was.
Seriously, I'm probably at the age where camera quality matters I wish budget phone makers pays more attention to it now as the processors gets more powerful that games don't even need that much power from a processor (like PCs) anymore. It's only the thing making me stay away from not as established phone brands.
Everything about this phone had me locked in until I heard our good friend Ben said that this phone holds a mediatek chipset🤢🤮 ☝🏿At least this folding device has to be in second place behind Oppo with a barely seen crease in my opinion. Still though🗣️NO SNAPDRAGON, NO GO! 😞👎🏿
More competition is good (even if it looks like a rebadged phone with lower specs), who knows it might trigger an avalanche of more affordable foldables
is it really a rebadged phone tho. the internals are completely different, software is different, back layout is also different. the only thing they used was the frame and the screen. the phones have more difference between the s22 ultra compared to the s23 ultra.
When will be the 512 gb variant launched. Is it available in offline stores. How many years of Android update it will get and security updates. Will there be a support for stylus
The only benifit of these "Flagship" phones is to force bigger companies to introduce better phones.. creating competetion. Or else, i will never ever compare this thing with a Z Fold!
It's not new tech but somehow every1 been waiting for the transparent phone led/oled Or any phones without actually holding them. Juz like in the movies. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Such a niche product, can't resist dust or water in most instances. Really is a rich persons you .

Now this is a phone that I didn't expect
Tecno now stepping up to the flagship market! More competitors to come
Pretty interesting and thanks for introducing new companies to keep an out for. Looking forward to your full review.

I hate youtube reviewing Samsung fold, and not talk about that shitty odd aspect ratio.
Such a crime like mr whos the boss he lost me there and then.

God job tecno
Tecno has really improved specially Camon series are amazing
this is the year of the folds unfolding
Very good and detailed first impression video. Keep it up 👍
The daytime photos look very nice
$1099 && $1222 -Engadget. That’s very good pricing. Bring competition to Samsung and other bigger manufacturers. Obviously software is always a factor.
Great video man, you always seem the first with many phones. Love your work!
Holly sht you've got some rare hands-on videos on your channel!
I'm a Tecno fan... I love ❤️this smartphone already. I can't wait for it to hit here in South Africa 💣🤯💥😍
Phantom V fold outrightly amazing
I am thrilled by this design.
It is impeccable!
7:45 I'm glad you said it! 😂 Right from the beginning I was like.. " Is it just me feeling that this phone copied/took inspiration from others and merely changed the camera layout ? " I mean there's nothing new rather the overall design.
I m digging what Techno is doing for its videos!
Nice quick look Ben ,Tecno is huge here in South Africa,I think they highly underrated!! Right im selling my car for this phone !!!!
Selling car? Don't be a fool
Lmao 😂😂😂
Where can we buy / import Tecno phones ?
Wonderful review, thanx
I've the Zfold 4 and I shall consider trying the Techno fold

how about their software update, how many or how long they promise for OS and security update?
So apparently it will first go on sale in India for an early bird price of INR 79,999 (±920€). The cheapest large screen foldable yet....
Tecno!!!
Colour me impressed.
Love your videos brother. Keep up the great work.
I don't know why but when i click your video I just press that like button immediately
Thanks!
Amazing the Beat sum of the Big names out
Loved the video.
I'll be waiting for Ben to review Honor magic 5 pro.
Coming soon!
Great unboxing keep it up as always about 50 percent of our phones in my country Nigeria is tecno Ben's bro
Only price I could find was @$1,200 US. Glad to see competition going Global. Peace
Yes make this common so companies won't rip us off.
Looking good , any idea about price ?
Flex Mode is the feature i use the most on my Galaxy Fold and I just don't understand why other foldable phones don't have it...
You kinda repeated the - not a review, just a first impression, a little too many times.
But it's nice to see more foldables in the market! Hopefully this outer screen ratio stays as Samsung one is oddly thin/tall. And may the overall price drop + more features!
This is the new Viral Company all over the world also I already have PHANTOM X 1 😍
The price is exactly the same as fold4. Is it hard to open? Does it get extremely hot under heavy use?
The expected specs of the Tecno Phantom V Fold, including its powerful Mediatek Processor, have me excited for its launch. This device is expected to be a game-changer in the smartphone industry
Nice review, great device with amazing specs, plus the price on it I'd very reasonable.
Damn this phone is insane
If this is priced right, it'll be much better than the Honor Vs or the Z Fold. Those two are already at $1500. If they can price even under $1300 it'll be a killer foldable that most people can buy.
Most ppl can’t afford 1300 really
Also depends where we r speaking from
Still too expensive
Finally fold in budget 🙂
I never use my fold 4 half-bent so for me this one would be perfect. The crease is really annoying when you watch content like movies when the camera makes vertical movements.
I just got a notification in my Tecno phone that they launch v fold immediately i search in TH-cam for Tecno v-fold 🌝
I've heard about that phone start up and they was putting out a foldable phone
I think what's curious is that these phones won't launch in either the US or the UK. Yet they have English as the language of choice for the packaging. Yeah other countries speak English, but just seems odd to me I guess.
Here in the Philippines Techno is known for their bang for the buck high spec for their uber cheap price phone ratio. So I'm expecting that this wont be any different. 🙃
I wish all these overseas phones would be available in the US already. It's almost like Samsung has a monopoly over folding phone options in the states.
Brands would never take the risk that Huawei took. Thats why most of them are not interested in US market.
@@MrRodrigo1250 yeah I wish that wasn't the case
Looking forward to your review about the software as this model gonna launch in Malaysia very soon...
What about the display specifications
Will this work in US and with T mobile
That's awesome!! What's the specs please??
Wait, what happened to Leagoo?
This is the only Tecno phone I would see myself buying
@TEXTbensgadgetreviews how dumb do you think I am
Different.
Nice.
We need Chinese foldable to go global to take on Samsung z fold. Recently I bought Tecno Phantom X which still sells for £350 for £150 I was mind blowing how good it was.
They are the most bought phones in Africa. And recently I must say their making decent mid range devices. Before it was terrible offerings imo
Is there a pen/pencil to use for notes etc on this?
❤❤ best review
Nice review
Is it available in Ghana now?
Hi Ben, is this the global version?
Yes it is. Tecno doesn't even sell inside China
Rather this than any Samsung or the Mix Fold.
Is good nice video
what's the name of that second phone you hold with you
Ben, do you like Europe?
I do
Everytime there is a breakthrough in tech we all win . Sure apple cannot wait to use no crease screen for their foldables .
where is the link to buy this phone
Is it possible to have split-screen horizontally?
No 😭😭😭 still only Samsung and honor
Seriously, I'm probably at the age where camera quality matters I wish budget phone makers pays more attention to it now as the processors gets more powerful that games don't even need that much power from a processor (like PCs) anymore. It's only the thing making me stay away from not as established phone brands.
If I want anyone to have a world exclusive video on a new product, it would be Ben
Thanks!
Would be interesting to know which companies produce in the same factory their phones. ;)
Hope they have good service support if released in India...
Can you do a full review of thai phone
Price.
Everything about this phone had me locked in until I heard our good friend Ben said that this phone holds a mediatek chipset🤢🤮
☝🏿At least this folding device has to be in second place behind Oppo with a barely seen crease in my opinion.
Still though🗣️NO SNAPDRAGON, NO GO! 😞👎🏿
Year of the foldable phone, this is getting exciting. Will Apple join in ?
Interesting .
Nice
Heard that this phone's performance thanks to mediatek is compared to Apple's iPhone 13
I have a fold 4 but this is not worth the upgrade which may be a good thing.
I found the price of it on Google it's about $970 or £805
More competition is good (even if it looks like a rebadged phone with lower specs), who knows it might trigger an avalanche of more affordable foldables
is it really a rebadged phone tho. the internals are completely different, software is different, back layout is also different. the only thing they used was the frame and the screen. the phones have more difference between the s22 ultra compared to the s23 ultra.
Iam using techno pova 3 not bad phone for me 😅 good battery 🤭
When will be the 512 gb variant launched.
Is it available in offline stores.
How many years of Android update it will get and security updates.
Will there be a support for stylus
That camera hole in the bigger screen kinda ruin it for me, i don't understand why you need a selfie there if you can use the main cam as a selfie
Video live?
Price reveal
Affordable foldable with a MediaTek chip? Sign me up! But don't skimp on battery life, Tecno.
Still don't know the price of the phone?
The only benifit of these "Flagship" phones is to force bigger companies to introduce better phones.. creating competetion. Or else, i will never ever compare this thing with a Z Fold!
nice review
gg well played . . @->--
#POWERGPU #Typicalgamer

wow
It's not new tech but somehow every1 been waiting for the transparent phone led/oled Or any phones without actually holding them. Juz like in the movies. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
