Tecno launched the Phantom V Fold, its first foldable phone, at the beginning of 2023. In the second half of the year, it launched its first clamshell-style foldable phone, the Phantom V Flip. We have entered the second quarter of the year 2024 and there has been no announcement on the successor edition of the Phantom V Fold. However, a new development suggests that the company could be working on the second-generation Phantom V Fold and V Flip phones.

The above screenshot shows that the Tecno Phantom V Fold 2 5G bears the AE10 model number and the Tecno Phantom V Flip 2 5G is identified with the AE11 model number. To recall, the Phantom V Fold and V Flip from last year have AD10 and AD11 model numbers, respectively.

While the EEC certification hints that the brand is working on the Phantom V Fold 2 and V Flip 2, concrete details about their specifications haven’t appeared yet. Interestingly, the AE10 model was spotted on Geekbench in January and February of this year, whereas the AE11 appeared on the same platform in February. The listings indicated that both models feature the Dimensity 9000+ and Dimensity 8050 chipsets, respectively.

To recall, the D9000+ and D8050 chipsets power the first-generation Phantom V Fold and V Flip, respectively. It is unlikely that the brand will use the same chip to power the successor models. Hence, it appears that there could be some discrepancies in the Geekbench listings of Phantom V Fold 2 and V Flip 2. Therefore, it is advisable to wait for further reports to learn about these devices.
