Purchase this phone!
TCL 20 SE is an amazing phone for the price. The display is very crisp even at low display brightness it’s bright. Cameras are great. Speakers are loud. They have dual speakers one is on the bottom right the other one is on the top where the headphone jack is. I was confused when sound was not coming from the left speaker. I called TCL and the agent who was very knowledgeable advised me the left speaker is actually to speak from. I’ve had Samsung Galaxy, Xiaomi, Nokia, I even have my wifes iphone 11. This phone has no bloatware a few apps that the phone comes with that you can disable. It’s stock Android. It has plenty of storage. You do not need an SD card. If you don’t want to spend alot of money buy this phone. The display is close to 7 inches. The battery life is amazing. Finger print is very fast. Face unlock is very quick and responsive . If you don’t want to spend $1000 on a phone purchase this phone. You will not regret this phone.

Recommendation 100%, great smartphone at a great price.
The media could not be loaded.
Bought this phone for my grandpa; he has been using it for several weeks now and is very happy with it. It works very smooth, fast, the audio is clear and loud with the dual speakers, which is very important to my grandpa. Also, it’s well built, smartly designed, and the battery powers it for several days on a single charge. The screen is big and beautiful! Personally, I really like the color of the phone, the phone looks very elegant with deep dark aurora green. I dont usually see this type of color in other smartphone series. The other thing to mention is the camera; I didn’t put a high expectation for this price range, but this phone can take surprisingly impressive and detailed photos.

Very nice for the price
I got this phone partially because AT&T, and partially because a friend gave me good feedback after he purchased one for his father. I like the phone, however, Android needs to work some things out with their autocorrect algorithm, and TCL needs to relocate the Google Assistant button or at the very least allow the user to disable the button, or reassign the function of the button to something else. I find that the button is in the perfect position to always be pressed when I grab the phone out of my pocket, or when I lay it on its side. It’s annoying, but I guess it’s something I can live with. Overall, I’d buy this phone again. It plays all my games smoothly. It plays music through a web browser while I look at emails and texts without any kind of hesitation or break in the music. The camera is not too bad for a phone, but it can’t hold a candle to my DSLR. Having said that, there are enough features on the camera to give the user some very nice artistic flexibility. If you need a good working phone that also has a pretty good batter life, don’t pass this one up.

The best efficient budget phone.
Omg it’s only been a week and I love this phone. It’s the best budget phone I have ever bought. I use it for daily tasks such as texting, calling, checking my Facebook, web searches, YouTube videos, taking pictures here and there and listening to music. The battery life is amazing, the camera is great, the speakers are really good, and I haven’t experienced any lagging or slow response time in between applications like the other reviewers mentioned. If you’re looking for a phone with plenty of storage and a long battery life and doing all the basics on a budget. This is it.

So Far, So Good (Edited, it sucks)
ETA: DO NOT buy this phone, please, for the love of God. It’s awful. Drops connection ALLLLLL the time, even on home WiFi? Literally just won’t connect back for like 5 minutes. If you go through a dead spot when traveling you have to restart EVERY TIME to get back service, and sometimes even that won’t work. Today is the SECOND time that for no reason at all the phone shuts off and will not power back on. The last time it took overnight, then turned on fine. We’ll see if it ever turns back on after this. JUNK, get a Samsung. Barely had 2 years and the problems have been around mostly the whole time. 😡Just received yesterday, but so far everything seems to work great. Granted I really don’t use my phone for anything other than call/text and a little social media, this is definitely an upgrade for me. For the last 6 years I’ve been using a Galaxy S7. Honestly, probably still would if they didn’t drop 3G, lol. But this is definitely a nice, affordable upgrade. Also love the TCL brand in general.

NOT COMPATIBLE ON VERIZON or any CDMA Network
First thing, this phone, the TCL 20SE, does NOT work with Verizon or any CDMA cellular network carrier. This is straight from TCL’s product page on their TCL.com website.Now that that is out of the way, this phone is amazing. It came new in the box and included all OEM documentation, a fast charger, a USB-USBC cable and even included a clear/transparent silicon case (cover). As far as the features, exactly what I was looking for:Earphone/mic plug jack for corded accessory connectivity.Expandable SD card for enhanced data storage.Front and rear facing cameras for multi-angle videos and pictures.UHD touch screen display and ultra wide angle format.Amazing resolution and incredible picture quality.Blazing fast processor for unbelievable data, internet and streaming connectivity speeds.Now for the draw back, and there really is only one:Amazon, this is totally on you and the seller for not filtering this product effectively. I searched specifically for Verizon network unlocked phones and this came up twice as a featured ad and three more times unsponsored on the first page of results. This phone is NOT compatible with the Verizon network, yet you placed it in the results anyway. Thanks to you, my son who picked this phone out because it had everything he wanted for a Christmas gift, now has pick something else and settle for that! I had to research on my own to determine why I couldn’t get it fully activated on our Verizon service, only to discover it’s not compatible and will never work. I sent the seller an email and they have updated the description to reflect the exclusion of Verizon network (CDMA) functionality. After updating their Amazon ad, your filters are STILL including it in the results. Not impressed.

Loved it, until I didn’t
I loved this phone, but realized that as budget friendly as it was, it wasn’t the right phone for international travel (not e-sim compatible). And now a little more than 2 years in, I’m having issues with the touch screen not responding from time to time, which is very frustrating. Because I’m afraid of it happening when I need to answer it place a call or in an airport (which could leave me scrabbling at the TSA line or boarding gate) I guess it’s time to replace it.

Phone memory
I love this phone for the price, but in the last two months it has refused to save any photo or saved document and shuts off randomly. It gives me a file corrupt error. This happens when saved to internal or external storage. A factory reset does not work. I expected this phone to have at least lasted a year not nine months. Of course not it’s out of warranty.

Nice phone but…
Phone worked great at the start and looked like a new phone. I waited a few months before posting my review in order to see how the phone would hold up. I’m now a few months into using this phone and I am having issue with it. No matter what I try, I can not get the phone to make a sound when I have an incoming text. The biggest issue that started about a month ago is not having any internet service when I leave my house. I have taken the phone to my carrier, T-Mobile and they confirmed that the problem wasn’t on their end.

STAY AWAY FROM THIS PHONE
Worked for only a few months. It may get a phone call and ring, but the screen won’t turn on and you can not answer.A couple of times has come back to life by pressing the power button and either volume button, to do a reset; but, then it shuts off for good again.I wrote to the vendor who replied in a couple of days and told me send the phone back to them to a location outside of my state. I chose to lose my money before dealing with a company who would sell such a piece of garbage.I saw a video of someone opening this phone. The procedure is as complicated as “open heart surgery”… You even need to use heat to unglue parts held together by adhesives… I would not put my local repairman through the trouble of working on this phone. It would be punishment for him with a great chance of failure and trouble with me. The phone would end without a seal anyways. When it was new it failed…What will happen when it is a tampered with device?There is chance the problem is not the hardware, but a software problem…I chose not to find out.I bought the latest and best iPhone for my wife and she gave me her old, used iPhone. I will be so much better than fighting this new crap.

Hi-Res Clear Display.
Fast boot-up. Not a bunch of trash programs pre-installed. Visually pleasing. Buttons positioned well. I would give it a 5 except that I found one of my apps was not compatible. (Starlink) it is probably due to the lack of a compatable accelerometer.

Great phone, bad coverage.
I seriously like this phone, but it doesn’t use all the bands for most of the carriers in the U.S. So far it’s my home/wifi phone and works great, I play games all day without having to charge it. The touch screen is a little finicky when it comes to acknowledging that you pressed where you did. But once you get used to it, it’s no big deal. Fingerprint reader works almost perfectly, and face recognition about the same. All in all, a great phone at it’s low price.

Worked great for 5 months!
Two months ago it started charging slow so I purchased a new power cord didn’t help. After I figured no cord would work because inside phone the cords don’t connect. Looking to buy new phone in next couple of weeks don’t think it will be another TCL!

Decent for basics, basic apps dnt show
Its a beautiful phone. Calls, texts, speaker is wonderful. Down side… Mose badic google apps are loaded on the phone but the apps do not show up. To get to messages, I have to go through contacts. Tried uninstall and reinstall and the issue never resolved itself. This is the case with most of the preloaded google applications. Phone also would not cast/mirror. The app never would oick up the available devices. I tried 5 different tvs. Contacted customer service and they disconnected the call without even talking to me. I definitely would not recommend. Switching back to Samsung. Buyer beware!Update:Customer service did try to help. Was able to set the messages app on the right tab that slides out. It apps still done show under apps but are able to be added to this tab, except photos. But it is a good phone outside of the app issues. If they do a software update to show all apps (including background/software apps) on the device it could get 4 stars. They lose a star for one of the customer service reps that took all my info and never called back, as well as for the software glitch that still has not been resooved. Everything else is perfect on this phone.

Battery life, screen responsiveness is great
After finding out the Google Pixel 3/3xl are potentially bringing themselves, I prefer this phone. I had low hopes for it, being a budget phone.So far the battery life is amazing, 10-12 hours consistent use, 2 days standby! The screen is only 720p, but videos still look crisp. The camera is pretty decent, better than most of the budget phones I have had.Downsides, it’s pretty large for ppl with smaller hands, with a 6.8 inch screen. Large in the pocket, a bit bulky, especially with a case.Giving a 5 star due to battery life, responsive screen and overall great deal for a sub-200$ phone.

Does not support 2.7 or 4k viewing
Was looking for a phone I could use as a GPS on my dirt bike and be able to download and edit go pro videos while out riding. This phone will not play anything over 1080p. The video is just choppy and does not play. I ended up returning and buying the TCL 10L which with coupon was only 20 bucks more and has more RAM and plays up 4k videos just fine. Also it’s kind of comically long. And only 4g of RAM makes it pretty slow at times.

May be hidden files in the phone.
I hardly write negative reviews, but the problems with this phone pushed me to do so. It was wonderful the first few days, and yes it does have great battery life (though let’s be real here, all phones do) but then it started being super slow. I couldn’t figure it out at first, and customer service was super slow, so that was no help. I resorted to just returning it on the basis of a defect. But during the back up process in which I plugged the phone into my desktop to import pictures, I was shocked to find how difficult it was to actually get there. I had to go through several steps to get access to my files, fine and dandy so far, but then my desktop asked if I wanted to import everything. Thinking that “everything” only meant the stuff I knew about, I accepted. I was greeted with about a 15 minute upload of a huge folder. Once I started reviewing the files, it became clear a likely reason why this phone was crappy to me. I am now the proud owner of about 700+ random strangers’ pictures. And I am not just talking about one or two people, probably potential previous owners (which is also an issue to me as I clicked the option to purchase a new product), but there were at least 6-7 people, one couple even has what seems to be engagement photos on here, and one lady had intimate photos. I’m glad I had issues and can still return this.

I’m begging you please don’t buy this!
I was highly upset with this phone . I was back and forth on whether I should get this phone or should I spend the money and get the TCL 20 pro 5G and to be honest with you I should have just went straight with the 20 pro the 20 SE is a terrible phone. I used it for 3 weeks and already calls were not being picked up I couldn’t hear who was on the other line but they could hear me I would have to restart the phone just to get that working it would constantly disconnect my Bluetooth headphones when I was at work and I mean constantly to the point where I didn’t want to listen to music at work anymore the one thing I really didn’t like is that the music player didn’t allow you to make playlists but it seems to be a thing for all TCL phones the battery life was terrible. The service and the Wi-Fi on the phone is not good at all. Sometimes I would power the phone off and then it would turn on by itself just save yourself the headache the time and the money and just get the TCL 20 pro 5G you won’t be disappointed on that one but this one you definitely will……

update review 1.5 year ownership
I have owned this phone for a year and a half without hardware issues for the first year. However, about 2 months ago the phone began having issues with charging. No matter what type of USB C cable I use the device does not get a good enough connection to charge fully. This is mighty unfortunate bc after the phone’s latest updates almost all apps work (except for google wallet, its not supported at this time). So keep this in mind. Hopefully, TCL can find a way to prevent this on other models bc if the phone is still functioning in decent condition, the charger port should stand up to normal use as well.

Awesome battery life and it charges up pretty quick
One thing I like about it is that isn’t all bloated up with a bunch of crap from some company well this is a an unlocked phone built that way so it doesn’t have a bunch of so bloatware but you know Google’s a little intrusive so I try to block them out of everything but it’s it’s pretty streamlined not a whole bunch of crap loaded on there that’s great. The one thing that bothers me is the lack of protective cases and covers for this phone it’s awful there’s nothing that can prevent you from from cracking your screen when you drop this I guarantee you I can’t find a decent case for this at all that bothers me

Perfect!!
For the price this phone is awesome. It’s my second TCL, and it’s been flawless. I don’t have to worry about it, I’m not making payments on it, I didn’t get robbed like Samsung and iPhone owners. No screen protector and a thin, simple case that came with it. Since TCL started selling phones like this for smart people I’ve noticed a dramatic drop in phone prices. Samsung is starting to be reasonable now, and so aren’t a lot of other brands. I paid $189 for this phone, and it’s been invaluable to me. THANKS TCL!! You changed the game.

Calidad de camara
El equipo realmente es bueno pero a los que son amantes de la fotografía deja mucho que desear la cámara , tiene varios modos panoramico , macro etc pero pierden calidad en algunos de esos modos.Lo bueno vida util de la bateria, muy rapido , y se ve muy premium el celular a pesar de la gama de este.

Not capable of AT&T voLTE as stated, or so it seemed
Needed to get an AT&T phone for their new network. The description said this one was ready, it is seemed that it was not one first set up attempt. Looked like a very good phone for the price. No setting for designating volte service in the settings. Could not make calls. Got approved to send it back. Reset the phone to factory. Again checked AT&T site and this phone is listed. Tried a 2nd time to set it up. This time it did connect to the cell network, it works. Very easy setup. Glad I gave it a 2nd try.

Bought a used one from Amazon. Not a clean phone
After opening the box on this used phone it was obvious that it had not even been wiped clean. Lots of dust particles especially in ear piece area and speakers. Fingerprints and smudges. I like the phone model it has some good gadgets built in like compass and it’s picture quality noted as one of the top ten best quality pictures by it. But the phone has at least one major issue it got very hot within ten minutes of use while just setting it up. Battery from 100% went down to 92% in 10 minutes . The phone screen and backside of it both sides became very hot. I will check and see if this keeps happening and if so then I must return it as defective. I believe this must have been the reason it was returned by the first buyer. Attached few pics of it as I unboxed it. I did not see in any reviews anyone complaining that the phone gets very 🔥 hot. So I will find out in few hours of use.

Battery does not last 3 days
So far the phone seems okay I try to use it in downtown area and the call was not going through very clear. I didn’t have that issue with my other phone. It’s nice and bright has a ton of that it has extra space to hold one extra app where you’re called buttons are. I don’t do much on my phone except for Google I don’t play games and my battery does run out by the end of the day. The fingerprint recognition is great so much better than my other phone.

Nice phone but the one I received has complications
This is a very nice phone, besides that the problem I have with it is it’ll restart on its own, if am in a middle of a conversation or watching a movie or sometimes doing nothing at all, it turns off.The camera quality is great, it has amazing features. If it wasn’t for the default, I would’ve rated this a 5 star.

This is the first time I’ve tried buying an unlocked phone on Amazon and I’m impressed. So much more space than I’ve ever had on any phone before. The camera is amazing, the operating system is smooth. I’ve also never owned a TCL, but I’m a fan! I’ll be buying more from them in the future. Worth every penny.

I had to return it because MetroPCS didn’t approve this brand or model any more here in Texas, but I was satisfied for a few days of use

SOOOO Disappointed!
I got this phone as a Christmas gift for my husband. He is a novice and trying to learn how to use his smart phone. Just as he was getting used to texting, his phone failed. It was the middle of March, about the time US phone companies were switching to 4G and 5G towers. Our company (Consumer Cellular) warned us it was going to happen and that he needed a new phone. Anyhow, since mid March he has not been able to send or receive anything (GIFs or pics) other than text, which he was really beginning to enjoy. Further, it stopped enabling him to make or receive calls. I took it to Target twice and they worked hard to get it working correctly, including updating twice to be sure everything was current. Yesterday I took it to a phone repair store who told me to contact CC, which I had already done. They said they hadn’t heard that happening with any other phones. I’m usually pretty good with electronics, but this thing sucks big time!!! I plan to contact CC and see if they have any solutions. Otherwise it is totally useless to us!!! What a waste.

I thought it would be better
I bought the phone as a gift to be taken and used in Jamaica, I put the Jamaican sim card in and it connected right away which was a huge relief. I love it just for that.The phone itself looks amazing, it looks expensive and high tech and it’s BIG which is great.The display and camera quality are awful… The phone looks great but the quality is cheap.

Good phone
I like this phone. It does keep restarting it’s self. Which is anoying. And it’s hard to find a good case for it.

Good specs at good price
The display is excellent and super clear and the battery life at 5000mA/h will last me all day. The super high resolution of the camera picks out the smallest details. And the 128MB memory with the option to add more is so convenient. And it works great with t-mobile service.

Shuts down often
It’s a really nice size phone with great features but while using messages or searching online it shuts down often and returns to the home screen. It also does it when I use my apps. ☹️ I have only had it for a few days

Amazing phone in some aspects, total letdown in others
Let’s get the negatives out of the way…and there are a few.For some reason, the Amazon Shopping app isn’t available on this phone, like the Google Play store specifically says the current version isn’t available on this phone. Super weird since I JUST bought my husband the black one (same phone) and it’s fine for him.Next, I’m not getting notifications. My Gmail and weather app are the only notifications that are popping up consistently and in a timely manner. Several apps don’t show up until I click on the app itself. I’ve tried to adjust settings to no avail.I hate the Google Calendar widget for this phone. It’s weird and scrunched and it forces the whole calendar to open if you need to do anything beyond looking at it.The positives: battery is truly awesome, the display is great, the cameras seem to do a good job, the face and fingerprint scan work very well, everything (except the Amazon app) transferred over very easily, there’s plenty of storage space even after it’s all set up. Definitely a lot of positives, the negatives are just…a lot to swallow.

Could Be Better But It’s Ok
I’ve had this phone for a few months now and as some of the reviews I read on here and through YouTube the battery Life is not the best. Also it’s downloading speed is not that great either. The camera quality is ok nothing to brag home to Mom about but it gets the job done. Overall I’ll say if you’re looking for a decent device for just enough quality to get the job done to get you from point A to B without paying hundreds or thousands of dollars this would be the ideal device.

Great phone for the price!
This phone was a pleasant surprise. I purchased the phone to use a work phone. I have not used an android device for years, and when I did it was the Samsung Note series. This phone blew my expectations away for a phone in this price range. I recommend for anyone who is purchasing it for a child’s first phone, budget phone or work phone.

This is a good phone!
Turns out this is a very good ! The display is really nice. Response is very quick. Cameras are good and fun to play with. I have used plenty of cheap Android phones, this one is super good. The text is very pleasant. The screen size is good for watching TV and movies. The audio is way better than most phones.I am actually an IPhone user but am impressed with this TCL unit. Big battery! Memory! Low price. Pretty good phone.

Great phone for the price
Bought this phone for my mother as an early Mother’s Day gift. She absolutely loves it. Easy to set up. Lots of storage and a long battery life. The font is bigger so she can see it easier. There’s also less bloatware than other phones. I got her this phone because I loved my TCL 10 Pro phone that I bought more than a year ago. For the price this phone is awesome.

Does what I need
Bought this particular brand and model because I wanted high res audio codecs. This phone sounds great with my Jabra elite buds and my Soundcore q 35’s.Additional things that I enjoy is the 128 gig storage as what we’re once overflowing my previous phone now are a mere 20% of storage on this TCL.When you throw in the plastic case ensuring a degree of protection .. what’s there not to like.

Excellent phone for price.
Overall this is great phone, the battery life is long, great pucture quailty. Tcl make great pucture quailty televisions also. Try the product for yourselves. And they also send a case with the phone, a clear case. I have Metropcs services . and the phone works great with it. High end quality phone with affordable prices. Stop wasting money to buy other phones only to get the same services.

I really wanted to like it
I tried really hard to like this phone. It shouldn’t have been a challenge because the battery life and screen are fantastic. Not just for the price either. The camera and speaker are pretty decent. The fingerprint reader never misses. But two things keep it from being even tolerable to use.The first is memory management. The phone has 4gb of RAM yet consistently tells me there is between 2-1.5GB free. But RAM is meant to be used. What happens is that the phone seems to remove apps from memory completely, and so many, MANY of my applications never receive notifications unless I open the app. Once I exit it (not even close it, just switch to another app or go to the home screen) I won’t get any notifications. Some apps have no issues with this, some will not notify me unless it’s the most recently app I used.The other, and worse, issue is with the digitizer (touch sensor). The phone always recognizes my touch, but swiping is so incredibly sensitive that moving my fingers even a few pixels will fling the screen around. This is incredibly apparent when I’m reading and scrolling text up as I read, changing sliders in apps (for example distance) or using the brightness slider. The slightest slide instead of touch, again literally a few pixels, registers as if I slid my thumb across the entire screen. This is infuriating when I’m trying to use Google maps to look around, or when I blind myself in the middle of the night trying to turn the brightness up by 5% but instead get solar blasted with full brightness.As much as I want to like this phone, I just can’t because it’s constantly trying to annoy me.

Great phone deal for the price.
My original unlocked 3G phone stopped working on the AT&T network due to the network upgrade.So I found this TCL 20 SE phone which is a very nice deal until I can save up for my dream phone.The video comes through very clear when watching quality video programming and productions on apps like Youtube TV, Netflix, Prime, etc. I have been using the phone for 3 nights relentlessly and only needed to charge it 2 times. The charger that comes with the phone has a short cable, but it does not charge very fast, but it’s not a slow charge either. I tested it next to the iphone SE 2020 which charged 2 to 3 times faster than the TCL. I am happy the phone is compatible with AT&T into the 2022 upgrade too. I don’t mind the length of the phone, but not sure why it is so long I have not found the benefit besides more scroll space for email content. The color of the phone and decals is very nice! Perfect phone if you are looking to replace a phone on any budget. Also not one rugged or hard shell case available for the phone.

I’m keeping it. But pockets and size. Need to wear my fat pants
I do not put my glasses or anything crunchable in my jeans back pocket. It is to long for some of my jeans’ front pockets, and feels like its gunna fall when in the pocket on most of my shirts (you know, like a little girl you’re holding who suddenly decides to stop hiding her face in your neck and bends backwards to see what is behind her). Saul good, man. No drops.The only problem I’ve had with it is accidentally launching google assistant (ga). That locks it up for maybe five seconds. Uninstalling ga is the best thing I’ve done this week.Battery life is awesome. Comparable to the second week of a power outage here back when few people knew of car cigarette plug phone chargers and most people’s fones were dead and not cluttering up the airwaves.In my usage, which is standby, calls, texts battery level seems to drop by about ten percent per day. Note that I have a very close tower, about one block away, with families living a probably hundred feet apart. Your locale may vary in how much power your fone needs to pump out to be heard by the tower. Huh, interesting: i am seeing two of five bars.The one I got came with a practical clearish rubberish case, a walwart that I haven’t plugged in, and a usb2 to usbc cable. I have only had it for a couple of weeks, haven’t been bored enough to write down times and battery percents but pretty sure it does charge /fast./

Inconsistent notifications
Update:TCL responded and I appreciate that. However I had already attempted to contact them prior, and was not able to get through by phone. I did get assistance via email for another issue they solved by email. I did get through by phone later on, and unfortunately the advice given did not solve the problem. I do not get notifications from three very important apps, and for that reason I have to return the phone. I can deal with quirks, but one of the basic functions of a smart phone is to get notifications. I like the price, and think that paying 1k or 800 for a cellphone is not feasible for me. I appreciate the effort of TCL, but this phone does not work for the notification issue.I will initiate a return, unfortunately.Battery life: 5 starsDisplay: 5 stars for a budget deviceFunctionality: 3 stars it shuts down in the middle of app usage and it does not work well with run if the mill functions like printing from the phone.Notification: 3 very spotty and inconsistent. This is the biggest problem and why I will be returning it. If I can’t consistently get notifications, then it’s kind of pointless of having a phone. I wish LG was still in this market. But since they are not, I guess I’ll have to get a samsung.

Not bad, but actual display is not 6.82 inches.
The face recognition wasn’t bad. Fingerprint reader was relatively slow and frustrating, but did function. Battery life was excellent, which was one of the high points of the phone.My biggest issue with this phone, and was the sole reason I returned it was: the screen size (display) was not 6.82 inches. The screen might’ve been 6.82 inches. However, the display did not fill the screen. So, that was a waste of the full screen size. The reason I bought the phone in the first place was for the screen size. I assumed it was the full 6.82 inches. I actually wanted a larger screen than that, but couldn’t find one. I wanted a full 7 inches or better.Now, you may not think that .18 inches make a difference, but believe me, you will notice the difference. And then when it’s even smaller than the 6.82 inches advertised, and you actually hoped for 7 inches or more, that small amount is very noticeable.

buyer beware !!!!!!!
i purchased TLC phone twice,,the first phone was great ,,except for the charging port, or batterywhich became defective after almost a year sent it to the manufacturers repair department and received a phone that was either fixed or brand new, i could not tell,,i had to pay 20$ to ship it to Buffalo N.Y ,or to have it reshipped to me,,cant remember. In the meantime i purchased this upgraded one during the fixing period ,because i really liked the phone and its features this version which is a really an excellent /upgraded model ,except the charging port is defective again, it was purchased in February of this year 2022 so in 5 months the charging port is again defective,,i love android phones ,,never had this problem with a Samsung that i owned previously .or a Hauweii i owned prior to buying my 1ST TLC phone. THE MANUFACTURER HAS TO LOOK INTO THIS,MAYBE THEY NEED TO DESIGN ANOTHER TYPE OF CHARGING PORT. or battery devise,CAN’T FIGURE WHAT IS GOING ON..I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED THIS IS HAPPENING,,AGAIN.. its Feburary of 2023.and my warranty was not accepted.even though they got the phone on the day the warranty expired, it was remiss of me not to send it in earlier,only because i had so much trouble getting the email back for the ticket # eventually had to use my daughters email to get all that done.they are not going to repair the phone, imagine using a phone over 200$ and using it for 6 months only and it breaks down.Now i have to go purchase another phone,pay 60 $ to have the phone repaired,and had to pay 20 $ to have it reshipped back to me after repair,,the first phone which they have repaired which has broken down after 6 months of use,,,i should have just gotten me a descent 1 phone for 500$ so in less than 3 years i have spent almost 700$ on phones. PLEASE DO NOT BUY,,,,

Great budget unlocked Android phone
Device definitely surprised me. I was expecting a substandard device from a company that is known for their Flat Screen TV’s… I suppose it made sense for the screen to look as good as it did, because they’ve been doing the “screen” thing for more than a few years now.My only gripe is that the face recognition sometimes takes a while to recognize and unlock the screen for me…But this probably has more to do with the fact that I basically look like Mr. Po Po from Dragon Ball Z at night.Fingerprint reader also takes a few tries to “sense” flesh making contact…but for the most part, it works as advertised.Battery life is great for an Android; mind you I’m single and don’t have any friends where I live, but I’ve left this freakin thing on stanby for like 4 days straight without charge( cellular, wireless, and bluetooth radios on) and it only was reduced 15% from 100%

Funciona para Banda LTE 2 y 4 (GSM 850 y 1900)
Habia comprado otro celular de la misma marca y tuve muy buena experiencia utilizandolo asi que decidi adquirir este modelo de mas alta gama. Las prestaciones son muy buenas y cumple con todas las expectativas y mas aun teniendo en cuenta el valor del equipo, comparado con otras marcas que ofrecen similares prestaciones a un precio mas elevado.Por las caracteristicas tecnicas del equipo como procesador, memoria RAM, almacenamiento interno, camara trasera y frontal, reconocimiento facial, lector de huellas (a pesar de tener en la parte trasera) y performance (sin muchas apps instaladas) les doy muy buena puntuacion ya que esta a la altura de otras marcas de similares caracteristicas.La razon por la que le di 3 estrellas es porque siendo un equipo de mayores prestaciones y precios esperaba que viniera con el Glass protector de pantalla que incluyo un telefono de menor gama y ademas porque solo una semana despues que adquiri el producto, la misma disminuyo el precio por aproximadamente USD 30 (informado por el mismo Amazon) y no tienen un mecanismo de proteccion de precios como si lo ofrecen otros vendedores cuando compras un articulo que en menos de un mes disminuyen los precios.

The phone is very good.
This phone is very good so far. I like the design, features, camera and the fact that you get a case included. the reason I purchased the phone was for the storage and it’s great. I got it at a great price seeing as though it’s considerably higher now. The only reason I gave four stars is because the sound can be a little ticky at times but that may be something I am doing. I have only had it for a short time but I will update after more extensive usage.Update: If you are using a random phone charger the phone will go black and you won’t be able to turn it on. You have to change back to the tcl connector, plug it in and it will work fine. It has only happened twice to me and I still use random chargers because the TCL charger runs hot. I switch to the TCL charger when needed.

Best phone so far
I just got this phone yesterday but so far I seriously like it. I’m really picky about what phones I choose and I was skeptical of this one since I was buying it without seeing it or being able to talk to someone about it. I must admit I am pleasantly surprised. Activating the phone was super easy. I have metro by T-Mobile and I was worried I wouldn’t be able to use it. It works great with my network. Navigating my way through the phone was a refreshing breeze.UPDATE: I may have written a review too soon. I am not receiving a lot of my calls. I made sure DO NOT DISTURB was off but for some reason it’s telling people I am unavailable. No one is blocked and my Carrier says everything looks good so it may be the phone itself. After I update my review, I will be contacting the company and talk to someone… Hopefully.
