Agreed they are unique and affordable now 🔥👍

More competition=More innovation. Can't wait to see more companies doing foldables and flips:)
They really ought to focus on folding tablet sized phones. These folding phones that are the size of a normal phone make no sense.

Wow- those selfies were legit good. Overall a really good offering. Hope they become a veteran player and continue to innovate.
Arun is the only person who could make me watch a 7 minute ad
This video felt a lot more calm than your previous videos no loud music or flashy transitions just clean voice and sleek presentation a throwback to the 2020-21 period of this channel
Kinda true ngl

ONLY folding phones let you act like James Bond or Captain Kirk. No matter what you flip open with one hand, THE WORLD BETTER WATCH OUT ✊💪
No comments? let me fix that
no action on a verified comment, lemme fix that
I also like to comment
@k4vbRms7-yt NO LMAO
This guy comments on nearly every single Mrwhosetheboss video. 😂
Dude, I am soooo loving your core message here. Enough is enough! Incredible job as usual.
Just wanted to give you some appreciations for all the little things you do in your videos to make them that extra special, I love it.
Man it is so refreshing seeing that folding phones are more usable at a much more affordable price
Yeah, super cool to see it progress towards being a perfectly normal phone that also just happens to be able to fold in half.
They should fold to become tablet sized. They keep folding them the wrong way.
@@jacobnunya808 If that folding phone can also detach itself to become a phone and a tablet, I'd consider it. Personally, I want the option to have them separate, which I already have.
If the tablet's screen size doesn't depend on the phone's, I'd consider it too.
@@UltraObamaIt's not necessarily going back to 90's... We cant deny there are some people who seek a more portable phone instead the big phone we have right now... It's interesting to see how technology developed to accomodate the people who need them...
@@UltraObama Hahaha... It's true... Remember how Steve Jobs said that no one will use big phone, and we can see just how big the phone has become... The reason is because big phone accomodate bigger screen, and having a bigger screen makes high resolution videos more enjoyable...
Flip phone on the other hand let you enjoy the normal size screen that we have right now, but makes it more portable by folding it... It's a good piece of technology in my opinion...
I am literally blown away by the camera results, Well done, Techno
Yeah a lot better than I expected

@@Mrwhosetheboss Hi!
Bro what
@@MrwhosethebossYour vids are absolutely awesome :)
I appreciate your honesty, with companies trying to get you to sponsor them, and how you took the time to explore and got to know the phone genuinely 💪🏾
I love this, it really is great to see all this happening with a flip phone! A flip phone like this is something that I'd actually like to switch to in the future.
Tecno has really pushed their limits on their first fold phone. I can't imagine what the future holds for them
Yeah, I REALLY want this. It's not as pretentious as some of the other flips phones that seemed more money grabby, this seems like they actually tried to think of the user and do well for us.
Their cameras are really great
Tecno, as long as Infinix and Itel are in the same company.
Second folding phone actually
In a really affordable and reasonable price unlike the others🙄
0:07 That was smooth.
“Back in my day when i was your age, all I had was a flip phone.”
The technology to make a folding phone has been around for several decades, even without flexible OLED screens.
It's just that no manufacturer (or, none that I've heard of) wanted to build a phone with two screens, usually opting for a screen in the top half and keyboard or numberpad in the lower half, rather than two capacitive touch screens separated by a hinge. Some did put a tiny secondary LCD on the outside/back of their phone, but they were mostly just glorified status lights.

The fact that today’s world has changed to say that “$700 is affordable” is crazy.
I’m pretty sure he meant affordable for a flip phone
"Affordable for a flip"
'Cause most other flips are priced around $1000
@@Vi-uu2zo ik,I was just making a joke.
Right xD
A whole family of 4-5 can live on that money for 4 months here.
@@mimlidass2274 A family of 4-5 people can live 4 months with just $700? I want to know in what kind of a super affordable dreamland you live and i want to move there as quickly as possible.
There's something extremely odd about this video. For instance, at 4:03 he's praising the Tecno phone for not having a noticible crease, but in every other shot there's a huge dent. Also, he's only complimenting it, with no downsides. Almost as if he's secretly paid for it.
It is a sponsored vid. Check the description.
Corporate espionage is how tecno must have got the technology to build this phone.
Yeah. There's nothing wrong with doing sponsored content, but being sneaky about it, merely implying it in the video and only explicitly stating it in the description, and presenting the video as an honest review whilst lying and making stuff up is not good. Marques Brownlee wouldn't do this.
But it's still an impressive phone.
4:43 Bro's ready for speed running 😂😂😂
The sheer amount of videos this man can make while still being entertaining
the background music was perfect, most videos have either too loud or soft bgm, appreciate the effort !
5:47 Arun the chipmunk lol I think Arun would make a great cartoon voice over actor. But all seriousness love the video Arun thanks for giving us the idea of this phone kinda would buy it over the samsung versions.
I wouldn’t call it an affordable flip phone, but I’m really glad that a different company jumped into this category of smartphones. This will eventually force big companies to make much better flip phones or at least lower their price points. Good job.
It is affordable. And "affordable" is a relative term here.
It's an affordable phone.
Nobody said It's a budget phone.
Also, if $700 isn't affordable to you then you should really focus on improving your terrible money management skills.
@@PSYCHOV3N0Mu think everyone wants to spend 700$
@@PSYCHOV3N0M idk about money management, more so less money overall, or the simple fact that the majority of people dont need or want to splash out 700 usd for a phone that is basically a gimmick. Honestly Id call it bad money management buying a 700 usd phone though you don't need its features that make it 700 usd. For most users, a 200 usd phone even could meet their requirements.
Difference between AFFORDABLE flip phone and affordable FLIP phone
Excited to follow the progress of this company, this feels like OnePlus at their early days, amazing features for a fraction of the "standard" market price
The cpu and gpu are pure thrash.

The hand that catches the phone at the beginning of the video!!!😱😱😱the level of precision is mind blowing
Damn that overall package seems promising. Didn't expect that level of quality photos. Seems like they've improved their software.
As someone with a foldable phone like the flip. I am kinda excited about this. Especially when you brought out the Flip 5 to compare to the other. I was flabbergasted that you can barely see the crease. I'm stoked to what the future has for foldable phones!!!
Flagships honestly need to come with good unboxing experiences. They can ignore it for cheaper models but for flagships they need to do it
Agreed, I was so disappointed with the S23 Ultra. I was like...that's it? I spent that much money to just open a janky cardbox box?
@@SirChoculai agree, i buy s22 ultra and only got box and cable and also the box feel so cheap, like you buy cheap thing from china
Love that there are still companies pushing the boundaries forward!
7:20 I would have a whole art gallery in the cloud
Price gouging is an issue in the flip and fold market. I was applauded that Google's Fold started at $1800. I already had a Samsung Fold 3 and 4. I'm not paying for another R&D. :) So, it refreshing to see a foldable that is more affordable.
You mean appalled
Yeah Google fold at that price was bs. At least with Samsung you have USB to HDMI. Google refuses to enable that.
that what happens when stuff cost a lot to make
@@Kirby5588And the Pixel Fold and the Galaxy Fold5 are the same price, meanwhile the Galaxy is so, so, so much better.
Bro price gouging is an issue with literally anything that cost money now.
I don’t think people should take sponsorships if they can’t be honest
I have never actually purchased a phone based off Your videos. I usually just watch videos of what I already convinced myself I'm getting but shit that folder is good

Your videos are incredibly informative. I am sure you have helped millions in choosing the right technology to buy and have! I salute you sir 🫡
Sponsored videos like these do not say anything negative they might have found during the testing process of a phone. Watch some organic of it content before making a purchase.
My God, you are just on another level. Sooooo many videos with such a good quality. .
1:24 bro speaking facts 💯
Arun takes videos in as fast as snapping a shot in the new iPhone 15 Pro...Amazing efforts he puts into his vids. As usual, I love his content
The days always better when mrwhosetheboss uploads a video.
Hi mrwhosetheboss! you are my favorite youtuber and always bring out the most unique products. I love your reviews. Keep it up!
I'm using Tecno phone (not the foldable one) for more than 2 years, it still surprises me in a good way. Like what they are doing!
Lovely video! Learnt alot more about folding phones with the addition of the crystal fluxator. Keep up the good work!
Man gotta appreciate the quality video you bring out every week, Waiting for the camera comparison between iPhone 14 and iPhone 15 series.
I don't think it will come
They aren’t very different unless you get the extra zoom on the max this year.
Loving the consistent uploads!
I switched from my iphone se 3 a few months ago to a second hand samsung ZFold 4, I am loving it!
How have you posted 3 high quality videos in 3 days?!?! One of the best tech creators out there for sure!
Wow Arun! Great to see such a consistent flow of content (I guess September is a busy time for the tech world)! Great video, as usual!
OMG finally a folding phone without an obvious crease, it's still there but obviously a much needed step in the right direction!
This is the innovation the industry needs.
Tho I'm genuinely happy that more companies are jumping into foldable phone train, it's not something new that some new, small companies starting with a blast and then starting to feel the crunch in the market that is dominated by mobile giants. So they start with an acceptable phone but then they'll start to degrade in quality once they gain enough attention and i hope that's not the case here. Also one thing that arun forgot to mention was how long the company is able to support its products software wise and how much they're able to optimize their hardware to keep up with the competitors in a long run.
Good point! 💯
2 years software update and 3 years security update. . . Ordered placed, waiting for its arrival 😎
I actually liked the idea where a company make an affordable flip/foldable phones so they can fit in my pocket easily without falling over + for $699? this is definitely a good deal.
Those selfies look insanely crisp! Almost like a poster ad
this is the most impressed ive ever been on a non flagship phone!
This is awesome the way you presented it, it feels mind blowing considering it's their first fold.
Wow, yeah very impressive. The amount of flagship features unique to this, and well-implemented make it look like all the big boys have been dragging their feet.
What a BEAUTIFUL phone.
It's stunning 😭💞
I have zero interest in ever buying a foldable phone but it's always good to see what the other side is doing and because arun content is amazing
Once again Arun is consistently uploading high quality videos. Two videos in one day is crazy.
0:12 "before I flip" I see what you did here 👀
My iPhone 13 contract ends in November! can't wait to switch to a Z flip 5! All these flip phones looks so amazing! and the customization omg!
Got the phone a few days ago ❤ now watching this on it. Loving it so far but my only wish is that it will have more functional apps on the cover screen
This is heaven! Tons of new videos in 2 weeks!!!
While Tecno doesn't have a track record of making great phones, I'm glad that the Phantom V Flip exist to mark down foldables price and create more competitions in the field 💯
Absolutely!!!!
If tecno starts making phones better (just slow down with making random ahh phones) it would be mainstream phone brand.
Yes totally agreed...
bro just ignored their 100$-250$ phones bruh. They are absolutely king in value per price and I think they have the same software features as this one. Their $1000 fold is pretty good too
@@kklc5477 their 100-200$ phones are bad (source: buy used phone)
I would love to see more companies do this. I can see a possibility of more innovation coming in. The cover screen is the highlight for me. If for a smaller form factor, you sacrifice the steps it takes to check it or things like quick actions then there's no point. Samsung's lineup with their small fromt panel is still good but theres definitely room for improvement after watching this. And i would think that they were smart to include many of essential accessories inside the box. That plus the price seems like a good selling point.
Nice!! Now that's how you enter competition.
Impressive device. I expected everything to fall apart when you mentioned the camera, but was pleasantly surprised it's not much of a compromise. Well done Tecno!
If the flip costs 699 could they maybe make a fold for 799? It would be amazing
@@pylotheric9777they actually made a fold phone before this
@@pylotheric9777they already have a fold since February which cost $899

The fact Arun uploads so frequently it's crazy legend
That cover screen is amazing.
Every comment:
“The amount of effort this man puts into his videos is insane”
“How does he put so much quality into his videos in such a short time?”
7:30 so that basically means each time I unplug my phone from charge it’s gonna ring in full volume unless I unlock it before unplugging 😂

@@84bitmercyop58 how would it know if it's someone else 😂
Here comes ON/OFF button 🔘🔘
coming from a person that rarely buys new phones (i mostly buy second handed ones) this one made me think if i should buy one of these as my next phone, but i think it can wait, cause i just got an s21 ultra and i’m not planning on changing it in the near future
broski puts more effort into these vids then we even deserve
Before smartphones flip phones were quite common. They didn't take up so much space in pocket or purse which was good. That's still the only benefit I can see in these new flip smartphones so I probably wouldn't spend more to get one.
makes sense
I knew I couldn't be the only one who thought this. But actually, it made more sense with a phone with a plastic screen and physical buttons because it would help reduce the amount of dirt making contact with it. Modern phones have glass screens and no buttons. They are small enough to fit in most pockets so the size reduction won't matter unless it is tablet sized. Those are the foldables that make some sense.
@@jacobnunya808 Most mens' pockets. I rarely have a pocket that fits my phone as a woman. So having it be shorter like in a flip phone would help a bit with not needing an extra purse that could be stolen.
HOW IS THIS MAN PUTTING UP A VIDEO LIKE EVERY OTHER DAY
The way your explanation is superb bro.
Love to see competition rising in the foldables segment❤
Only competition in other countries, NOT the US. Our only options are the Samsung and the Razr....because the US is LAME AF.
Really cool how couple of years ago foldable phones were a fantasy, now there are “budget” foldable’s
$700 is NOT budget but it is affordable.
Don't confuse the two.
@@PSYCHOV3N0Mits a budget on its category since the first flip phone from Samsung was priced as 999 usd
I've had the Z Flip 3 for two years and it's been solid. I'm inevitably going to replace it in the coming year because of microcracking of the screen at the hinge. Hopefully this Phantom V comes to Canada so I can get it.
Okay that phone taking pictures if you fail to unlock it is awesome
Mrwhosetheboss is so informative its shocking. Ive watched his videos for upwards of 4 years and I can say he does his research.
I feel like he kinda fell off
I don't think you watched this one, at least not before you commented

😂😂😂 I noticed
of all the brands, its so cool seeing someone as small and with as relatively little resources as Tecno setting the new standard for folding phone innovation and price! truly unexpected and I'm very glad you reviewed it!
I really hope this foldable can be available globally, unlike most chinese branded foldables. This will force Samsung and Google to up their game in terms of innovation
They don't need more innovation. They should fold to become tablet sized and have software built around that. If they could do that at a low price they will have made progress.
@@jacobnunya808 ?? Then look for the Samsung fold series that's what your looking for. This type of foldable in this video isn't for you but a lot of people like it so they will keep making it but if you want "fold to become tablet sized and have software built around that" then Samsung already made something close to that look at the Samsung fold series you can choose from Samsung fold 1 to 5.
@@jacobnunya808 Or try Phantom V Fold
@@jacobnunya808Without innovation, how are they supposed to make it better or cheaper? Innovation is essential
@@termin29671 I should say they don't need innovation in this direction. Think of what is needed to make this design work. The screen is soft plastic, there are now moving parts, you have to spend extra time to use your phone, and it is cut in half. None of this is good. And all you have to show for it is being able to fit in skinny jeans easier and use the camera without holding it.
This is the first time I've ever thought "damn this flip phone is ACTUALLY cool"
Thank you for the video, I’m going to get one of these to play with.
This phone actually got me hyped for the first time for a foldable. The Software looks fantastic especially since I love customzing, the round display on the back has a good size and really nice widgets and the photos look absolutely great. I hope this company keeps going that strong 💪
Same!! The price is expensive for me still, but if I could afford it I'd get it.
@@jessy1982 yeah same here. Normally I spend between 300 and 400 for a phone, but I think for such a special phone it is really a reasonable price 👍🏽
@@hdaum1410 It seems like it could comfortably last quite a while without needing to upgrade, it's a lot more "finished" than other fold phones.
@@jessy1982 💯 although I think the software support might not be as good as other companies. And usually the smaller companies have also a lot of bugs in their UI, but still I think it is worth it
