Review on TCL Unlocked Android Smartphone Charging Cell Phones & Accessories and Cell Phones by Jeff Leu

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Best mid-range price with flagship quality available now

Really good phone and I've had quite a few this year. Oneplus 8 had problems with the antenna signal in my house. The Moto Edge had known display issues. But this beauty right here does everything I could ask for and more. This phone is not 5G ready and there are no quick notifications on the lock screen. Those are the only two downsides, but since 5G is still in its infancy and this phone always shows a wallpaper, I'm not overly concerned about that. The speed is great, the camera is great, check out my sample for a few different photos. The camera mode even has an option to show what it will look like if you're recording a video, if you've recorded a video in low light or if you've taken a standard picture, it shows each of them on the screen at the same time, so you can see what will happen the best choice. A smart key that can be programmed to do three different things is really awesome. I have to long press to mute my phone, I have to quickly press to bring up Google Assistant, and I have to triple press to bring up search, which works for both phone and web searches at the same time. And you can program the power button to open the camera with a double tap. This way, you'll have plenty of triggers to use with your phone without fully unlocking it. I also love the on-screen edge trigger, which you can program to open 12 different apps that you can use frequently. And you can use it to access the contacts you use frequently and you can customize both to your liking. And the Edge trigger actually works very well, unlike Moto Edge and third-party apps with the OnePlus 8. I haven't noticed any significant battery drain when using the always-on display, and there are some amazing ways to do that for You optimize taste. . The display looks great. You can use Face Unlock as well as an in-display fingerprint sensor. It's really hard for me to find anything I don't like about this phone. The only thing I would really like to add to the software update is that notifications are shown by simply touching them on the screen without having to unlock the phone. And I sent them a request on their Twitter page. If you buy this phone through Revain like I did, I think you will be as satisfied a customer as I am.

Pros
  • Sleek design
Cons
  • Clarity

Good hardware, but with too many forced apps.

Leaves much to be desired. I've purchased entry level phones that didn't have as many issues
