TCL 20L+

TCL’s next two phones act more like siblings than two different phone models. The TCL 20L+ is the choice for users who prioritize photography and style. The 20L+ is also the first phone to work with TÜV Rheinland-certified Circular Polarization Display technology sunglasses so users can see accurate color representation on their screens no matter the situation.

Created for “aspiring photographers on a budget” the TCL 20L+ is equipped with a high-definition 64-megapixel main camera, 8-megapixel wide-angle, 2-megapixel macro, and 2-megapixel depth for its rear cameras. It’s also equipped with  2x lossless zoom, HDR support, face detection, scene detection 2.0, Google lens, and a Pro Mode. Around the front is a 16-megapixel selfie camera with an LCD flash, face beautification, HDR support, and more.

You’ll still be getting TCL’s NXTVISION display optimization with the device’s 6.67-inch FHD+ display. Internally, it’s powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 662 processor supported by 6GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage. It’s also expandable up to 1TB via microSD card.

One of the highlights of the TCL 20L+ is its design. The back panel is described as having “more than a million prismatic crystal pits to create a dazzling, light-reflective surface inspired by the Milky Way.” It’s not only beautifully designed, but it’s also resistant to fingerprints and scratches.

The battery on the TCL 20L+ is slightly larger than the Pro variant at 5,000mAh. Unlike the Pro version though, this device doesn’t support fast charging and can take up to 2.5 hours for a full charge using a 9V charger.

TCL 20L

On the budget spectrum is the last of TCL’s newest offerings, the TCL 20L. Crafted as a budget-friendly option, the TCL 20L still packs a lot of the necessities and, of course, an impressive screen that also boasts of TÜV Rheinland-certified Circular Polarization Display technology.

The 20L differs in its rear cameras which switch out the 64-megapixel main found on the 20L+ with a 48-megapixel one instead. The rest of the camera setup is similar including the 8-megapixel wide-angle, 2-megapixel macro, and 2-megapixel depth sensor.
