Incredible phone for 170 dollars with the black Friday savings, I picked up the White version, I like that better than that blue option. The phone matte screen is great, movies, videos and everything looks great on the matte display, this display looks even better than my more expensive OLED boring displays, the TCL 60 XE is really fast with the 120fps and decent CPU, 8gigs of dram and 128gigs of space is awesome. The Display is not quad-hd, but it looks great, colors look awesome on the matte IPS screen. The CPU is budget but it works great with this phone, everything is fast, I ran thru app after app, I was playing videos, movies and it did not stutter, flawlessly moved from one app to the next and it opens movies and videos immediately with no delay, that is incredible for a sub-200-dollar phone. I highly recommend picking this up during the Black Friday special pricing, get the White version, trust me, it's a nice matte white color. I highly recommend the NAKEDCELLPHONE CLEAR CASE with the Screen Protector all in one, just do a search on amazon for it, its clear and protects front and back.Pros:1. Great Value for 170 dollars2. I love this Matte Screen3. Colors and Movies and Videos look great on this phone4. 120fps, incredibly fast and goes thru apps and videos with no delays5. Love the White color optionCons:1. Not a fan of the Blue version2. Its not the TCL 60 Ultra3. Not alot of case options yet
After a full week of tuning the phone, it's finally ready!It's a good phone, felt solid, natural to easily held with one hand.Transfered my data from my old samsung phone, but missed a lot of data. (unlike a Samsung to Samsung phone transfer last time)What I like:2TB SD card support.The price.The kindle like screen.What I don't like:no wireless charging.mind numbing wired charging speed.hard to fine a good case.So because it's so slow on charging, I dig up my old magenetic charging cable just for this phone.If I want to transfer files, just FTP it on using a APP.So far so good, only had it for less than 24hrs, everything I needed worked fine.Very budget friendly phone. Still need some tuning over the interface, but over all very good.
Great value and I love the matte screen. Good battery life.At first I was disappointed withe the charging speed, but that was easily fixed with a USB-C to USB-C cable and 30 watt charging block. Everything is easy to use and the screen wasn't bad in sunlight when I increased the brightness of the screen.I find it to perform better than similarly priced Motorollas or Samsung.If you want a matte screen or read a lot on your phone, this is the phone for you.I only play chess and the occasional casual game. It works great for that.Definitely the best bang for your buck out of the mid tier phones out there today.
I really enjoy this phone works very well. I love the next paper screens where you can change between the three different kinds has good battery. Life takes decent pictures and video for the cost of this cell phone. You really cannot go wrong for what you get.
It's an interesting phone in terms of you having the ability the use it as a regular color phone (non-reflective screen), a black and white phone for less strain on the eyes, or a full-on e-ink type device for better battery life. But good luck getting phone service if you want to use the e-sim on it! The phone says it has e-sim capability and a place in settings to add one. But I tried one service - they have no record of this phone and will not allow it to be attempted. Another service? Says the IMEI number on this is "locked". Another? "No e-sim capability for this device". So it might be a nice phone if I could put service on it!Decent battery, interesting display, good price, but if you can't put phone service on it, it's basically just a small wifi only tablet. On some other "not ready for prime time" observations, though: Even when the adaptive brightness is turned OFF, the display in color mode will go dim and bright, up and down, on it's own. Even when you manually adjust it and leave it, with again, the adaptive option off, it still does this. The screen looks fine otherwise when viewing straight-on, but when viewed at even the slightest angles, it dims quickly. The phone also warms up quickly when doing even basic things for a short period of time - it doesn't get "hot", but gets noticeably warm quick.I'll update this if things change, but between the varied small glitches on this phone and the inability to use e-sim with any of the several services I TRIED to sign up for, I cannot recommend this at this time.
I upgraded to this from their older model TCL 20 SE 64GB RAM + 128GB ROM purchased back in 2021.So far I only see pros with the smart phone after owning it for over 1 week. Display is very clear and I can go from one app to another very fast and rarely any lag. Camera and video quality is very good. The phone is great value for anyone that dislike paying a lot of money for unlocked phones from major manufacturers.I currently use Google Fi 5G and it works great with the phone. I used the E-SIM to setup with Google Fi services.
