  • Tecno Phantom V Fold 2 review and compared to the Pixel 9 Pro Fold. For $1099 it offers a compelling set of features but it's not perfect. Hopefully this video helps you decide.

    I live in a country where Tecno is a major phone brand. Just letting y'all know, they have the worst track record when it comes to updates

    People keep thinking the screen is not durable . If you own a foldable like me the biggest problem is not the screen but the Flex cable. It only takes 1 to 2yrs for the flex to break and phone starts to loose wifi, bluetooth, display, speaker sound and the only way to repair is to replace the entire frame and inner screen because its an assembly

    9:00 yes, and *video* on the inner display UDC on the Z Fold looks absolutely fine on video calls. Rather than showing a selfie photo, show a video call. Much better representation of the intended purpose.

    Thanks the apple event, i grabbed the fols 6 with 512 gb for 1159.99 with military discount though they offered a range of discounts for first responders etc. Based on color selection so i got the gray version. Still pricy yet iphone pro max starts at 1100 so why not. Just FYI fold 6 is currently affordable in their website. got the flip 5 w 512gb for 599.99 ✌️

      Nice, let me know how you like. The rule for Samsung is never buy their phones when they first come out. They are notorious for discounting their phones hard. I'm glad you're taking advantage of it.

      @superiortoall22 6 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      lol I like how you don’t add the trade in deal for the iPhone, take $650 off the price of the iPhone to make it fair. That’s $550 for the iPhone, so $600 less than the Fold 6, so not much of deal. No one pays full price for a phone.

    So this is a budget folding phone. Heres the thing. About a year ago I got a Galaxy fold 3 off Amazon renewed for $430 dollars. And it works like new. So better processor, better camera, at more than half the price. 🤷🏿‍♂️

    $1099 is not Affordable for a phone with below average camera and only two two-year software updates! They did even use Dimensity 9200.
    You can get Honor Magic V2 in the same price range with better specs and software support.
    I would buy this phone if it was $700-$750

    • @MatthewMoniz
      @MatthewMoniz  7 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

      That’s why affordable is in quotations. It’s more affordable than any other folding phone from 2024 but $1099 is not an affordable price point.

    my first foldiing phone was phantom v fold, very fun and lots of features but the battery they claim was no where near, it drained like anything, plus this phone overheats like anything ( you forgot to mention this). After about 5-6 months of us the front screen went blank all of a sudden. I live in the UK and there was no support. I am onl exited about their tri fold phone. there is another cheaper option vivo x fold 3
