Why TECNO Mobile Skipped Phantom 7 to launch Phantom 8
Tecno s expected a ‘Phantom 7’ as it is the next numerical step after the Tecno Phantom 6, but this is not the case. Tecno launched the Phantom 8 instead.

Here is why TECNO Mobile is skipping Phantom 7 to launch Phantom 8.Putting into consideration the interesting features packed in to the Phantom 6 and 6 Plus last year.

• Dual rear cameras; 10x super digital zoom and auto refocus – professional camera features that allows you to transform beautiful moments, near and far, to award-winning professional images with just one click

• A 6GB RAM – this is definitely the “plus” version comparing to Phantom 6 Plus’s 4GB RAM

• Latest MTK Processor – the latest MediaTek Helio Processor offers 2.6 GHz U ultra-fast experiences which s 4G+ and speeds of up to 300Mbps.

• Good battery with great power optimization.
Obviously, Phantom 8 offered “2-level-upgrades” at one time from Phantom 6 and 6+, and with outstanding camera features.

Tecno is becoming more and more camera-centric with each release of its smartphones, and the Phantom is the flagship portfolio that goes beyond your expectations.

Nice one
Can't wait to get myself a Phantom 8

Not just Tecno, recent flagships from top OEMs are all becoming camera centric. Everyone now post media on their social media and the quality of the content is key.

Love me a phantom 8, the device is so beautiful

So make we chop Dog Meat Pepper Soup with Slice Bread?

LOL, lies. There's only 1 reason they skipped the 7... so it can blend with the iPhone 8 and Galaxy s8. Because this is the season of the 8... and this is why they have been comparing the Phantom 8 with the Galaxy s8.. easy comparison... wouldn't be nice comparing phantom 7 with galaxy s8.

Now I see. Thought they were just copying other brands but skipping seven. Anyways the name is not what matters. It is the performance that matters Nd reviews so far haiis the Phantom 8.

Wetin concern me and Tecno?

Any name wey dem wan call am, doesn't undermine the elegance of the phone.

I totally believe this. Because of a truth the OP didn't give any real reason why they skipped 7. He just gave specs of the Phantom 8.

I think the specs is one of the reasons why it is called Phantom 8. It is massive.
