The MWC framework brings a profound renewal to the TCL mobile catalog: a new generation of phones, which aspires to establish itself in the most accessible mid-range, embodies the star in the TCL 30 and TCL 30+. Balanced functionality, an attractive design and the screen improvements that the brand offers in its best devices.
The TCL brand has decided to extend its popularity beyond televisions, betting on sharing the limelight with Alcatel, one of its ranges. The TCL 10 opened the door to mid-range mobiles; a range that has seen the models grow in the TCL 20. And with the new generation the brand further diversifies the range: the two new models crown the catalog with sufficiency.

AMOLED screen as the most distinctive detail
Both models are TCL’s most accessible range, hence the features contained. Even so, the exterior appearance remains very attractive; also some of the features included in the phone, such as the screen.
The AMOLED panel with TCL NXTVISION technology powers both models: they have a 6.7-inch FHD+ display with 60Hz refresh rate. This slab is cut in the upper part by a “notch” in the shape of a drop of water for the front camera of 8 megapixels in the case of the TCL 30 and 13 megapixels in the TCL30+.
Both models are virtually identical except for the front camera and storage: powered by a MediaTek Helio G37 and with 4GB of RAMthe TCL 30 offers 64 GB of storage and the TCL 30+ expands this capacity to 128 GB. Both offer expansion up to 256 GB via a micro SD card.
The new TCL mobiles offer a triple rear camera in a rectangular module where the main sensor stands out: 50 megapixels with an aperture of f/1.85. From there, the TCL 30 and TCL 30+ incorporate filler cameras: a macro and a depth, both 2 megapixels.
The autonomy is intended to be quite loose if we stick to the content of material expenditure and the capacity of the battery: 5,010 mAh in both models. 10W charging (too slow), both are updated to Android 12 with the TCL UI interface, offer a headphone jack, don’t give up the always welcome NFC and have a fingerprint reader on the side telephone right.
