Looks like TECNO is back on the flagship bandwagon with the TECNO Phantom 9 teaser. They have been inconsistent with the launch of their flagship devices. TECNO launched the Phantom 8 in late 2017 skipping Phantom 7. TECNO didn’t launch a follow-up flagship in 2018.
They have decided to stick with the naming as the incoming will be called TECNO Phantom 9 and will be launching in Kenya in the next few weeks.
Here are the specifications the TECNO Phantom 9 will pack when it goes live plus the estimated pricing the flagship will go for. We’ll keep updating the table when new information pops-up.
