Tecno Phantom X2 Vs Nothing Phone 1: Display
The Tecno Phantom X2 5G features a 6.8-inch Full HD+ curved AMOLED display with a 20:9 aspect ratio, a 120Hz refresh rate and a 360Hz touch sampling rate. The screen is protected by a layer of Gorilla Glass Victus.
The Nothing Phone 1 has a slightly smaller 6.55-inch 10-bit OLED panel with Full HD+ resolution. The 1080p display has a 120Hz refresh rate and also gets HDR10+ support.
It’s interesting to see how similar the two smartphone displays are, despite the significant difference in pricing and market positioning.
Tecno Phantom X2 Vs Nothing Phone 1: Performance
The Tecno Phantom X2 5G is powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 9000 SoC which is paired with 8GB of LPDDR5 RAM and 256GB of UFS 3.1 storage.
The Nothing Phone 1 is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G+ chipset, built on the 6nm manufacturing process. Even the Nothing smartphone has a single 8GB + 128GB variant.
It’s strange to see Nothing’s first smartphone packing a mid-range chipset. However, the Snapdragon 778G+ has been adopted by Xiaomi for the Poco X5 Pro 5G, suggesting that other mid-range Android smartphones could have the same SoC.

Tecno Phantom X2 Vs Nothing Phone 1: Which One To Buy?
There is no doubt that Tecno has offered a capable and powerful Android smartphone in the form of the Tecno Phantom X2. Its older sibling, the Tecno Phantom X2, has even better specs.
Nothing Phone 1 beats most Android smartphones in terms of looks and aesthetics because of the “Glyph” interface. It packs mid-range hardware, except for the AMOLED display.
Tecno Phantom X2 may beat the Nothing Phone 1 in terms of specifications, but the Nothing smartphone offers better value for money with a visual flair.
