Watch: Tecno Reveals Tri-Fold Phantom Ultimate 2 Concept Phone
Chinese manufacturer Tecno has revealed a triple-foldable smartphone concept just days after competitor Huawei confirmed that a tri-fold device is on the way. While current foldable devices offer dual-screen functionality, this new concept further blurs the lines between smartphones and tablets with even larger screen real-estate.
The Phantom Ultimate 2 concept is said to feature a 6.48-inch outer screen with an inner screen that unfolds to 10-inches, an LTPO OLED panel with a resolution of 1620 x 2880, and an aspect ratio of 4:3.
Tecno claims the Phantom Ultimate 2 is the first foldable with TDDI technology which places both the display driver and touch sensor on a single chip. It also supports screen hovering and is impressively thin, measuring just 11mm when folded all the way thanks to an in-house developed dual hinge mechanism.
According to Tecno, the 10″ screen on the Phantom Ultimate 2 also supports multi-window mode, enabling the user to have three or more apps running at a time for a less-cramped multitasking experience.
Tecno has not yet revealed information about the official launch to the market of its first tri-fold device.
