TCL are normally a little more prominent in the
headlines than they have been recently. We’re not sure why the company are
quieter than usual, but we do know that they’re still working on some
interesting phones if this new TCL A5 is anything to go by.
The TCL A5 is a very interesting looking device. It
features the current trend of having an 18:9 display, and it pairs that with
the also popular semi-bezeless look. The large top bezel seems to hold dual
front facing cameras, leaving it looking like a Razer Phone with its bottom
chopped off.
While its design may be an odd mishmash of different
devices and trends, the device’s MTK6750T processor means it’s probably a
mid-range device. We don’t really know much else about the device’s specs,
other than that its display is an 18:9 5.7-inch unit.
No launch date has been given for the device, though
we imagine we’ll see an official launch soon enough. The Alcatel A5 is expected
to sport a sub-US$ 300 price tag and should eventually become available for
purchase in both India and Europe.
