He has plenty of reasons to say that:

  1. Long battery life

Content creation does not have a time stamp. Unlike a nine-to-five where the clock-in and clock-out times are set in stone, you may see something interesting you want to capture even at midnight. This means having a phone with a long battery life is not an option, it is a need.

The Phantom X battery needs to be charged just once every 129 hours which eliminates the need to carry your charger everywhere.

  1. Large memory and processing power

A huge concern of every content creator is having a device with enough space to store all their footage, professional or amateur. As the saying goes in film circles, it is better to have more footage than you need than have less.

The Phantom X has a memory of 250GB, arguably comparable to some laptops in the industry. It is also imperative to have a device that runs fast and smoothly for flawless editing of videos, and this phone comes with 12GB RAM which is more than thrice the RAM of most phones in the market currently.

  1. Accessible to everyone

As the cherry on top of a really tasty cake, this phone can be purchased by anyone who has thirty per cent of its price. This is because it has partnered with Safaricom's Lipa Mdogo Mdogo programme, allowing anyone who wants the phone to pay a third of its price up front and the rest is paid within a specified window of time.

Since Tecno broke into the Kenyan market, they have earned the trust of Kenyans by producing phones and accessories that are not only reliable but also affordable. They have consistently raised the bar by introducing phones that speak to the demand of their market, surpassing themselves with every new phone they release into the market. This latest one is a true piece de resistance, a culmination of years of knowing exactly what Kenyans want.
