Price:
I know this is one thing you are very much interested in. Unfortunately, as seen in both specs sheets above, no price has been officially stated yet for the Tecno Phantom 6 and the 6 Plus. This however, will be communicated as soon as I have them.
Update (October 7th, 2016):
The Tecno Phantom 6 is currently being sold for N90,550 while the Tecno Phantom 6 Plus is currently being pre-ordered with a price tag of N128,000. Although the price of the Phantom 6 has been confirmed as the phone is currently on sale, the phantom 6 Plus isn’t currently available on any online store – hence, no official price yet. A confirmed price will be shared as soon as the device goes on sale.
