TCL has added 60R 5G to its 60 Series Lineup, offering a super-cheap smartphone aimed at bringing 5G access to a wider range of users.
Available in the UK for £ 70 through Vodafone, the device balances key features with affordable prices and is designed for those looking for everyday reliability without spending much.
The phone has a 6.7 -inch HD+ display with a 120Hz update speed. Double speakers give balanced sound, and TCL says visual tuning improves color and clarity. While the resolution is not the highest, the quick update speed should help the experience feel more fluid.
Battery in decent size
It runs on a 5G-enabled octa-core processor with 4GB of RAM and an additional 8 GB of RAM extension, allowing stable performance on ordinary tasks and light multitasking.
128 GB of internal stock can be expanded up to 2 TB via a microSD card, making it easier to store photos, videos and apps in one place.
One of the highlights of the device is the 5200mAh battery, which is large enough to handle extended daily use. Power -saving features are built -in to help stretch use time.
60R 5G can also be used as a portable 5G hotspot that offers fast mobile internet sharing with other devices.
The phone’s IP52 assessment means it is resistant to splashes and dusts so that it can handle exposure to light water – useful for outdoor use or if you are caught in light rain. This water washing resistance adds a layer of convenient, especially when the device is used as a hotspot in different environments.
The setup of the rear camera includes a 50mp main lens together with macro and depth sensors for casual photography.
Although not designed to compete with advanced models, the TCL 60R 5G provides enough power and tools to meet the needs of users who want 5G, durability and basic performance at a super low cost.
