Tecno Phantom X2 Pro Rear Camera
The biggest difference between the two lies in the camera department. The Pro option features the world’s first retractable portrait 65mm 50MP ISOCELL JN1 sensor with a wide f/1.5 aperture. It helps create a natural bokeh and helps separate the subject from the background. The camera doubles as a telephoto lens with 2.5x magnification.

Visually, the Pro variant has a colored ring around its retractable portrait lens.
