TCL 10 5G
Price: £399 (inc VAT) from fave.co/2YDiAmG
You might not have heard of TCL before, but you’ve probably come across their products before. The Chinese tech behemoth doesn’t sell much under its own name in the UK – TVs, mostly – but it manufactures plenty more, including Alcatel phones and, until recently, the last few Blackberry mobiles.
This year TCL has decided to put its name out there, starting with the launch of three phones in the West. The TCL 10 5G sits roughly in the middle of this set, offering some solid specs – including 5G support, if the name didn’t give it away – at a competitive price, with a subdued, professional (boring?) aesthetic that nods to the company’s recent history with Blackberry.
DESIGN
It’s probably fair to say that whatever you think about the TCL 10 5G, it’s not going to turn any heads. This is a phone built from the ground-up to look functional rather than flashy, and it’s likely to appeal most for use in a professional setting.
