TCL 20 R 5G

“Strong battery life, decent performance, 5G and a nice display certainly make the inexpensive TCL 20R 5G a strong contender in the budget market but it has drawbacks to consider.”

“The TCL 20 R 5G is “just enough phone.” No, it’s not particularly interesting or novel, but it gets the fundamentals right. It’s a 5G phone for people who don’t want to sign up for a punishing 24-month contract or splash out on a more expensive mid-range handset.”

“TCL's new low-cost 5G handset balances its feature set well, with decent performance and surprisingly good battery life. You'll need some patience to deal with its camera, but beyond that it's a great value phone.”

“I really liked the form factor, and the screen is just a joy to look at, at times I thought it looked better than my £1200 S21 Ultra ( and lets be honest that’s where we spend most of our day). It does it have some faults, yes of course but these are mainly in the camera department, but I have a very early version of the device and I can see that these short comings can be addressed in further updates, it won’t be the phone for the absolute top end spec hunters. It is not intended to be for that market.”
