The rear digital camera module on the Tecno Phantom X2 5G is what makes this a novel wanting system. The module protrudes fairly a bit from the matte-finished glass again and the cameras are aligned diagonally, just like the iPhone 13. The one distinction is that the lenses on the Phantom X2 are merely enormous, which provides it a hanging look. I personally preferred this contemporary design language, however I can see how some is likely to be delay by this quirky design alternative.
