Tecno sent us the Moonlight Silver colour variant of the Phantom X2 5G. The company says that the smartphone is the world’s first moon crater inspired design. Its frame is made of metal. The back panel comes with a frosted glass finish, which does a great job of hiding fingerprints. Although the choice of colours may be different for everyone, but I liked its Moonlight Silver colour very much. However, if you are among those who like classic dark colours, then you can also take a look at its Stardust Gray colour option.
Tecno has tried its best to give this smartphone a premium look and feel, which you will feel as soon as you hold the smartphone in your hand for the first time. The smartphone comes with a unibody double-curved design. According to the company, the thickness of the smartphone is 8.9mm, but the curve of both the back panel and the display made of 3D AG glass / recycled fiber has been kept the same, due to which the metal fret in the middle feels flat and slim and due to this the smartphone looks premium and thin.

A large square camera module is given on the back panel, in which a triple rear camera setup with LED is fitted. This setup has two large camera sensors, which can attract anyone’s attention from a distance. Both the large camera sensors have round glossy metal rings around them. Certainly, this camera module does a great job of making the Phanton X2 different from the current trend. However, whether you like it or not, it depends entirely on you.
