Tecno to announce its Phantom Ultimate G Fold Concept soon, here's what it looks like
Michail, 08 July 2025 Nearly one year ago, Tecno showcased its first tri-fold concept phone – the Phantom Ultimate 2. That device was later showcased at MWC 2025, and Tecno is now ready to hold a formal announcement. The Phantom Ultimate G Fold Concept will be unveiled later this month (mid-July) and we have some early images of the device to share with you today, showcasing the G Fold in its folded and unfolded states. Tecno Phantom Ultimate G Fold Concept It features an inward-folding design, similar to what Samsung is expected to go with on its own tri-fold. This allows the main display to be completely shielded when folded, providing better protection from accidental damage. We should mention that Tecno's G Fold is still not ready for mass production and will remain a concept for now. Phantom Ultimate G Fold will offer a cover screen on the leftmost part and a triple camera setup. Tecno promises a flat and seamless display when fully unfolded, with no visible crease. This was achieved by combining flexible display layering and developing smaller hinge components for the dual-hinge mechanism. The innovative hinge supports multi-angle hovering and various formations. Tecno also claims the G Fold will be the slimmest tri-fold device to date, which means it will be even thinner than the Huawei Mate XT Ultimate, which measures a mere 3.6mm when unfolded. In related news, tipster Ice Universe shared even more images of the device.

This upcoming foldable may solve my biggest problem with tri-folding phones
This year's hot new product seems to be tri-folding phones. When using them so far, I've found them to be more experimental than practical. My biggest problem has to be that they're just a bit too fragile. That's why I'm actually intrigued by Tecno's upcoming foldable smartphone. The Phantom Ultimate G Fold might just be the first tri-fold that doesn't make me scared to break it immediately after taking it out of the box. The clever bit here is Tecno's decision to fold this thing inwards twice. That means it won't leave the delicate bendy screen exposed, begging for scratches and scuffs every time you so much as glance at it. Instead, this new G-Style design wraps the flexible display up safely, with a cover screen handling the day-to-day stuff. It's unclear exactly what size and form-factor this phone will use, but I imagine this cover screen will be the same size as a normal smartphone display. Tecno also reckons this foldable phone sidesteps the usual brick-in-the-pocket problem by slimming everything down to something closer to the size of a regular foldable. Apparently, the tech giant has been tinkering with thinner flexible displays and miniaturised hinges to pull this off. I was impressed with how thin the Huawei Mate XT is, so I'm expecting big things from Tecno. Tecno says that when the device is fully folded open, the screen is flat – as in properly flat. Plus, you can hover the phone at different angles without it snapping shut or flopping around like a cheap deckchair. I can imagine propping it up to stream something hands-free on the train. Of course, all of this remains to be seen when the foldable phone actually arrives. Tecno plans to reveal more details in mid-July. Pricing and availability haven't been confirmed yet, but expect it to land in markets across Asia, Africa and beyond, with a price likely in the thousands.
