TCL 30 XE 5G
TCL 30 XE 5G is one of the cheapest entry-level 5G smartphones that you can get from the brand, thanks to its new processor. It is a nice upgrade over the regular 30 series smartphones but features a lot of the same design themes and aesthetic elements. You get a solid plastic body that is wrapped around a tough plastic frame to reduce weight while maintaining fall protection. The side panels are also covered in a rubber-like material to make them more insulated against damage. The front panel and the rear cover are both flat, with a slim camera array located on the top left. There is also a physical fingerprint button on the rear, above the centre of the panel.

Bottom Line
TCL 30 XE 5G is a cheap and stylish entry-level smartphone that features a nice display, a reliable processor, and a relatively large battery to charge it all. Unfortunately, the charging speeds are a bit low and the cameras are barely usable.Pros
