A report by Gizchina has leaked an official-looking poster of the Tecno Phantom V Fold suggesting its design details and specifications.

As per the report, the foldable handset features a hinge with a reverse snap structure for enhancing its structural stability. It is said to have a lightweight design with an aerospace-grade material built for increased durability.

Tecno Phantom V Fold’s launch is confirmed to take place during MWC 2023 on February 28. The flagship smartphone is claimed to be the world’s first left-right foldable smartphone. It is confirmed to pack a MediaTek Dimensity 9000+ SoC under the hood. The chipset has an overall AnTuTu test score of over 1.08 million.
