Mobile phone brand Tecno has launched its Phantom A android smartphone onto the Kenyan market

Phantom A, which is a dual-SIM smartphone, has a five-inch high-definition touchscreen and runs on Android 4.1 Jelly Bean with dual core processor.

Arif Chowdhury, vice president of the Tecno Group said the Phantom A will retail at KES20,000 (US$231) at all Tecno-authorised retailers across Kenya.

“Our capability to offer highly-advanced devices has promoted brand uptake in new African markets. Kenya is not only a market with only low-end phones, but also willing to explore high-end services and innovations,” said Chowdhury.

According to Tecno, the device’s dual core processor offers users a fast processing speed and the ability to use multiple applications at the same time.

The 9.1mm-thick Phantom A also features an eight-megapixel rear camera with flash and front camera.

Chowdhury added, “We want to satisfy the rapidly growing smartphone market in Kenya without compromising on quality.”
