Those who understand the underlying values of V60 treat them as gold mine. I have two of them, because I know there will be no alternatives available anytime soon.

In my eyes V60 is the absolute pinnacle of what LG was able to achieve in a smartphone before it left the smartphone business. As of today it stills have enough performance to muster any task you throw at it. Battery life is phenomenal. Great camera quality. But most of all the one that stands out is the presence of inbuilt LG Quad DAC and headphone jack. The analogue audio quality that emanates from its headphone jack is something which maybe todays TWS nerds will be unable to comprehend. Something which is unattainable in today's crappy use-and-throw TWS. Period.

Going back to my recent Tecno Phantom X2 Pro purchase, it came without a headphone jack as is the norm of todays flagships. I did not have much expectations from it USB-C port audio. I was not even sure the type of audio available from its USB-C port - digital or analog.

If a digital output is available then no DAC/audio chip present inside the phone. I will be needing a wired USB earphone with built in DAC. Or an active USB to 3.5mm audio dongle with inbuilt DAC that can be plugged to any of my wired earphones.

If analogue audio output available through USB port, then DAC/audio chip present inside the phone. I can just use my simple Oneplus USB to 3.5mm passive audio dongle (no DAC) to connect to X2 Pro and hen use with my wired earphones.

The phone came with a rich set of accessories, which included a USB wired earphone. Not sure what type audio available from X2 Pro's USB-C port, I plugged in the earphones and the sound was just ok. It is just a cheap earphone.

Switching to my Oneplus USB to 3.5mm passive audio dongle with a good quality earphones immediately confirmed X2 Pro has an inbuilt DAC/audio chip. And that too a good one as this audio chip is Mediatek's flagship offering which came with their flagship Mediatek Dimensity 9000 SoC.

I was pleasantly surprised with the lush and very enjoyable audio quality of Phantom X2 Pro. It has this slightly pronounced bass as is the requirement of current music trend. The phone when connected to good quality wired earphones is capable of some degree of instrument separation, but the bass is slightly ever more pronounced.

I know this type of sound signature as my Redmi K50i came with Mediatek Dimensity 8100 SoC and headphone jack and had HiRes certification while sounding exactly the same. We may call it the Mediatek sound signature. But I am content with X2 Pro audio prowess as it decently surprised me with it authoritative bass, high power output to drive high impedance earphones easily. Overall sound signature is just fine for casual music listening.

However for critical music listening, it still needs to walk a mile before it reaches the lofty audio quality levels of LG V60.

    Anjan, 22 Mar 2025How is the camera quality of x2 pro??The best that you get for the price of INR 23K in India. That is what I paid for it a month back in Amazon.

It's bigger brother X2 Pro as of today yet to receive Android 14 update. Frankly I don't understand Tecno's philosophy regarding software updates. They must be using less brain and more of their Ella AI to take decisions.

                        Anonymous, 18 Dec 2024How is the battery?Great for me

                        Charges up quickly from 10 to 50 etc

                        An hour for 100 I think not sure

                        The more demanding you use the more battery will drain faster
                        I use 5g hot spot 40mb
                        It drains pretty fast but also worth it lol

                          Don't ask questions
                          If you love orange buy it

                          But beware

                          I'm getting burned by using 5g hot spot lol
                          Especially when at real download 40mb per second speed in phone speed 80 mb

                          And when in gaming same heats up especially when playing demanding games sometimes even not demanding games and also in camera app heats up lol

                          But those I can live with
                          Can you?

                          Make sure the disadvantages don't affect you
                          Make sure the advantages you need are worth it for the price etc

                          I recommend you to buy this ASAP
                          Because Yolo

                          And also because I love this phone more than myself
