Verizon is sure pulling out all the stops to make its 5G experience significantly more accessible to the masses all of a sudden, following up that big T-Mobile-rivaling network expansion that just so happened to coincide with Apple’s highly anticipated iPhone 12 launch with the official announcement of the carrier’s most affordable 5G-capable handset yet.
All that being said, it’s impossible to deny the apparent quality/price ratio of the $400 TCL 10 5G UW, which pairs a respectable Snapdragon 765 processor with 6 gigs of memory while accommodating 128 gigs of data internally and supporting microSD expansion. Powered by a large 4,500mAh battery equipped with 18W charging capabilities, the very modern-looking handset adopts a trendy hole punch design with razor-thin bezels, as well as a premium combination of glass and metal build materials.
Around the back, the TCL 10 5G UW comes with a triple camera system composed of a 48MP primary snapper, 8MP ultra-wide-angle lens, and 5MP macro sensor, as well as a square-shaped fingerprint scanning module, while the 6.5-inch display sports a decent resolution of 2340 x 1080 pixels and a 16MP selfie cam drilled in its top left corner.
