Excellent range . Good brakes. Quick to accelerate. Solid folding system. Stem is thin and easy to grasp when you need to carry it. Great turn signals. Bright headlight and taillight. App has improved.Setup has a few more steps than is typical. Heavy at 77 pounds. Handlebars don't fold down. Display is tough to read in the sun.I test. Many of them just don't have a range that satisfies my needs.
The Phantom V3 is rated to support up to 300 pounds and had no trouble climbing even the steepest slopes on my way up the George Washington Bridge's bike path. The compromise to get this kind of range lies in the weight of the scooter itself. Alas, this thing is a whopping 77 pounds. Seventy-seven. I can carry it, yes, but it's not easy. I really wish Apollo would make handlebars that fold down, because they constantly hit the wall in my narrow stairwell or get stuck in the rails—not helpful when you're carrying something so heavy. Thankfully, the stem is narrow so my hand can actually grasp it comfortably, and the additional handle at the end of the deck is a nice touch.
You might need a hand pulling this escooter out of the big box it arrives in. Setup also required a few steps more than normal; mounting the handlebars is more of an involved process, with more screws and parts than its peers. Weirdly, none of the wires around the handlebars were plugged into each other, and this step wasn't listed in the instructions. For a few minutes, I sat confused wondering why the Phantom wasn't turning on.
