T-Mobile has just unveiled the newest members in its
Revvl family of own-brand Android smartphones, the Revvlry and Revvlry+. Both
handsets will go on sale on July 19.
The Revvlry has a wide notch and a huge chin as you
can see, and it comes with a 5.7-inch 720x1520 touchscreen with 19:9 aspect
ratio, a 13 MP rear camera with LED flash, an 8 MP selfie shooter, the
Snapdragon 632 chipset, 3GB of RAM, 32GB of expandable storage, a 3.5mm
headphone jack, a fingerprint scanner on the rear, and a 3,000 mAh battery. It
runs Android 9 Pie and is "water repellent".
This one can be yours for free at launch if you add
a new line of service with the magenta carrier. Note that this is free after 24
monthly bill credits. The usual price for the Revvlry is US$ 0 down and 24 monthly
installments of US$ 8.34, or US$ 200 full retail. If you upgrade through Jump! On
Demand you can get it for US$ 0 down and US$ 9 per month for 18 months.
The T-Mobile Revvlry+ has a sleeker water drop notch
and a slightly smaller chin, as well as a dual rear camera system: 16 MP with
OIS + 5 MP (the secondary one is probably just a depth sensor given the
resolution). On the front you get a 12 MP snapper for selfies. The screen is a 6.24" 1080x2270 19:9 panel, and
the phone is powered by the Snapdragon 636 SoC, aided by 4GB of RAM and 64GB of
expandable storage. It's got IP54 certification for water and dust resistance,
which means it's dust protected (though not dust tight), and can withstand
splashes of water.
This model also has a fingerprint sensor on the back
like the Revvlry, and it also runs Android 9 Pie and comes with a 3,000 mAh
battery - though this one boasts 27W TurboPower fast charging, which strongly
hints that the manufacturer of this phone is in fact Motorola. A headphone jack
is in too.
The Revvlry+ can be yours for US$ 14 down and 24
monthly installments of US$ 14, or US$ 350 full retail. Through Jump! On Demand it's US$ 0 down and $16 per month for 18 months. Both handsets have a magenta
power button because of course they do.
