OEX Phoxx 1 V2 Dimensions (Real Use – UK Wild Camping Test)

If you’re looking for the exact dimensions of the OEX Phoxx 1 V2 tent – and how they actually feel in real use – here’s a quick breakdown.
Quick Answer
The inner dimensions are:
253cm (L) x 84cm (W) x 70cm (H)
On paper it’s compact – but in real use, the length is one of its strongest points.
Outer dimensions (for reference):
260cm (L) x 164cm (W) x 75cm (H)
Real Use (Over 6ft)
I’m over 6ft and fit inside without any issues.
That’s not always the case with small tents. A lot of them look fine on paper, but feel tight once you’re inside.
The extra length here makes a noticeable difference.
Compared to others I looked at:
- shorter tents feel restrictive quickly
- this one gives just enough room to stretch out properly

What the Dimensions Actually Mean

Good for taller users. No brushing the ends with your head or feet.

Length
Length (253cm):
Good for taller users. No brushing the ends with your head or feet.
Width
Width (84cm):
Enough for one person and basic gear – but not spacious.

Height
Height (70cm):
Low. You’re not sitting up. This is a lie-down shelter.

In the Field
The compact size helps more than it hinders.
It fits:
- woodland gaps
- uneven ground
- narrow spots
That’s where it works best.

Final Thought
The dimensions won’t suit everyone – but if you’re used to smaller setups, they make sense.
For me, the length is the standout. The rest is just part of keeping things simple.
