DESIGN:
TCL’s 10L is more like a traditional smartphone which is powered by android 10 and will be upgradable to android 11 once available. The smartphone has a screen size of 6.53 inch full HD LCD with 91% screen to body ratio. It has a punch hole type design in its screen for its 16-megapixel selfie camera. Power and volume buttons are placed at the right side of the phone and the phone also has a customizable button on its left side which can perform tasks such as to open app or activate google assistant. The phone has a plastic back with a flashy finish.
The device has a single speaker which is located at the bottom side of the phone beside USB-C port. While most of the phone makers are removing our favorite 3.5mm headphone jack this phone is powered with a jack port. The fingerprint scanner is available at the backside of the phone. The phone is not IP rated or has a wireless charging feature which is acceptable because of the price range the phone is available.
CAMERA:
Though the phone is available at the price range of 250$ but then also it has an AI quad-camera system place horizontally with LED flash on both sides. The phone has one main camera, a super-wide, macro camera, and a depth sensor camera. The main camera is powered with a 48-megapixel sensor which automatically shoots photos in 12-megapixel form. The super-wide camera is powered with an 8-megapixel sensor. The TCL’s 10L has a macro camera and a depth sensor camera both powered with a 2-megapixel sensor. The TCL’s AI quad-camera is capable of clicking some amazing shots with vibrant colors making it a camera mafia in this price range.

The phone has a battery of about 4000mAh. In the battery drain test which includes streaming HD videos over a WIFI with full brightness, the phone lasted for about 10 hours and 48 minutes.

The phone has provided us with some great experience which was even better than other mid-range smartphones.
SOFTWARE:
The TCL”s 10L is powered with android10 and has a company own UI skin. While most of us would have preferred Android stock.
