The TCL 406 costs US$ 120, US$ 10 less than the 408. Where does the saving come from? The camera – the new model has a 13MP sensor, down from 50MP. It still runs full Android and it even comes with the newer 13 version out of the box. Other than that, the two phones are quite similar. They have 6.6” HD+ displays, stereo speakers and 5,000mAh batteries.
Note that TCL also has the 405 and 403
phones, but those are Android Go Edition devices, so we can’t compare them
directly to the other two. That said, the 405 hardware is pretty similar to the
406, the main limiting factor here is the RAM capacity. The TCL 406 will become
available in Europe immediately and will expand to other regions soon.
