What's better about the new throttles? Thinking about the upgrade myself.

[NunchucksHabit]

I have a V3 Phantom, have a little over 3600kms on mine. 10 mins of maintenance weekly & mine feels brand new. Range is surprisingly good, but that could be because I'm getting more creative with using ECO mode. I'm hoping I can upgrade my V3 to the tubeless tires & improved throttle/regen levers & enjoy peace of mind while I save up for the Apollo Pro I've been hoping to get. I've been considering other brands/models, but I continue to find that proper maintenance of my Phantom has kept it working great. I absolutely hate changing tires, having pinched so many tubes - but I'm so in love with the dedicated regen thumb lever, I don't ever want to squeeze brake pads over a disc again - unless it's in emergency.
If the V4x was available in IP55, I'd get it before a Klima - even with some of the old-scene hardware. Plus, I know these things are built in China, but I still like to support a fellow Canadian company when I can. Appreciate your review, I had no idea about the V4x - of all the spam I get from Apollo, the stuff that would make me shove my money at them is kept quiet. The tires with tubes, the weak headlight and the dim LED screen are all features of an outdated design.

I have the V4. had it for a month now. It lives on LUDO mode, in fact I've never taken it off LUDO since unboxing. I have my reasons but it handles like a champ! the only CON I would say about the scooter is the HUD screen, its very weak and breaks super easy. I only had my V4 Phantom for 2 weeks, while riding I had to stop immediately during a normal riding session and I had to brake really hard at the moment, and I usually lean back every time I brake but this time I leaned into it and I bumped the HUD screen with my zipper on my jacket and the screen cracked and doesn't work anymore. Luckily the app is very responsive and works great so I just mount my phone on the Phantom but still...paid $2+k for this guy and the screen broke so easily. Other than that I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT! Handles great in the city and I over take most cars when the light turns green and keep up with city traffic (30-40mph). ALWAYS WEAR A FULL FACE HELMET!

All in all its a 8.9 out of 10 for me. Cons are the screen and LONG charge time but PROs are it's built like a TANK, rides extremely smooth and is extremely responsive. So far my tires are holding up for city road traffic. It's worth the money but get a phone mount because you will break that weak built screen!

Thanks for the video... is that a phone mount on the right side of your bars, if so what make/model is it... thanks!

Just got the v4 and kinda wished I got the Nima Klima instead

[ivantdr]

I just made a order and I’m about to return it back

[lucid_plasma]

I got my v3 in aug last year.. so just confirming what you said… the v8/new throttles will work on the v3? (And do you have a link to them?) i love the phantom!

[davidpeters]

Apollo v4x vs nami klima? What are your thoughts on which to get?

[leyon_-]

I currently own a Segway Ninebot F2 pro but its speed disappoints me so im planning on getting the Apollo Phantom v4x but I cant decide whether to get the Nami Klima instead. However I hate the Nami Klima's wire management. It really gets on my nerves seeing wires dangling around. Can someone please recommend me a good scooter in the range of $2300 which has bluetooth app control, speeds over 50 km/h, and a good amount of range?

I like the minimal lighting as it makes it more stealth kinda like its name implies, Phantom. If my daily route took me through sketchy areas I might not want to draw attention. If I want more light I could always wear headlight.

Don't try the Nails. Tubeless is not a Wonderweapon against Puncture. My Bike has Schwalbe Marathon plus Tires with Tubes but that Tire is allmost indestructible.

[magicalcat]

"You can ride over a whole box of nails for fun" 🤣 - nice review of the Phantom

[bsauve]

what rear view mirrors did you end up going with ? i just ordered my scooter and im looking for some accessories.

[Funkadelick]

Does this have the full 360 lights like the pro does?

[tylershine]

Just picked one up. I’ve contacted Apollo themselves about the restricted top speed of 60kmph. I also tried factory reset a couple times but, still now help 😢. Is there any way to get it to 66 like they

[MP-yqge]

I juat got my V4X and i notice the battery drains super fast when in sport mode. Anyone else find this to be the case??

[OilMoneyLife]

Does anyone know if it is possible to add blinkers on the sides of the handlebars on the Phantom?

[cookmatthew]

So they took away split rims That make changing these tires extremely easy?? You gonna get a pinch plate eventually and it's gonna be a choir to change it.

[nigmaG]

Does the V4X have the split rim design?

[cubah]

The next Phantom is the Phantom 2.0 and it looks like the Pro. I saw it, but with a 60v and top speed at 50mph.
