Smartphones with attractive specs are rare in the sub-PHP 5K range. On paper, we think that the TCL 30 SE is one of them. We are not sure if this is new in the Philippines, but we recently spotted its listing at Memoxpress Online. This device was first announced globally last MWC 2022.
Priced at just PHP 4,990, the device is
boasting a large 6.52-inch HD+ 1600 x 720 resolution screen with a 20:9 aspect
ratio and a notch housing an 8MP selfie camera, 12nm Helio G25 chip, 4GB RAM,
128GB expandable storage, and a 5,000mAh battery capacity with USB-C 15W
charging. Not only that, but this device is also equipped with a 50MP main
camera (paired with a 2MP depth and macro shooter) + an LED flash.
It also has WiFi, 4G LTE, Bluetooth 5.0,
GPS, and dual SIM slots. The device run with Android 12 OS out of the box.
