TCL 20 Pro 5G, TCL 20S, TCL 20SE - Hands-On TCL 20 Series Series Tour, TCL NXTWEAR G

Salah everybody and welcome back to the channel in today's video we're going to check out the brand new TCL 20 series, I'm talking about the TCL 20 pro the TCL 20s and the TCL 20se between these three devices, we're going to get a slightly different experience between obviously budget mid-range and, of course, the best that we can get with the pro series from TCL. Now throughout the video I'm going to be sharing with you guys how to be able to pick up a free pair of earbuds with your order. This is TK. Let's go ahead and check out the TCL 20 series like and subscribe and make sure you hit that bell icon so that you're always notified to whenever we have new videos on the channel. So here are the three devices we have the 20 pro the 20s and the 20se. All three of these devices are going to give us a slightly different experience.

We have the budget, the mid-range and, of course, the professional or, I would say, probably the flagship version of TCL devices for this year. So this is going to be the best that we can, and this is going to be more of a mid-ranger and again for budget conscious, but still want to be able to get a large display. The 20se is definitely going to be able to hit that spot. I have the marine blue. We have the Milky Way black here with the 20s and then, of course, the SE is the new black, which essentially is an uh, a nighttime black.

So this one is more of a mirror finish: uh, this one's more of a gradient, a little more uh, sparkly kind of finish, and, of course the 20 pro has that very nice kind of like a smoky side and, of course, very nice lines, uh right there. Now they do come in other colors. This is not the only colors that we have um and I will say this much that the 20 pro from last year. So this is the 10 pro from last year, and this is the new 20 pro I definitely have always been the ones that always look like the most premium out of the bunch. Of course, we still have the curve display, which is something we'll get a chance to talk about a little more now.

TCL did include a couple extra goodies for me and I do want to say thank you very much. They included this nice little multi-tool. That's very nice for outdoor camping, a nice really cool flashlight with a nice magnification, which is really, really nice, of course, a face mask which is definitely very cool, very nice and, of course, very soft. Last but not least, which is really, really nice. Is it one of their water bottles? That includes a piece well that can technically a small speaker that you can charge at the top.

So when you're walking around you're going outdoors, obviously, as you can see the flashlight the multi-tool, they want us to do things outdoors, even with the backpack, as you saw, it looks really nice. So this one definitely very, very cool and of course, a Bluetooth speaker at the top will always be nice when you're walking around. So you can actually start jamming to some music now they're all going to include a free, clear case. That's included in the box and each one will have different experiences. This one is meant specifically for the SE, as though that's the one with the fingerprint scanner on the back the SDS, I think, features the fingerprint scanner with the power button and, of course, the pro features, the fingerprint scanner directly within the display, but again free cases, 18 watt chargers, USB type, a USB type c cables, and they also did include an additional case for me for the 20 pro, which is definitely a very nice one, and this one is drop, tested and, of course, made specifically uh with the dual layer configuration here very nice and this one's made by accessorize uh.

That's the protect one so for connectivity, 4g, LTE, 4g LTE for, of course, 4g LTE, plus 5g. Here on the 20 pro. That's some one of the main features that we get here. We have a different configuration on each one of these devices and surprisingly, actually, if you think about it, the SC, although considered to be the more budget friendly, it's definitely packing in a very large display. We'll get a chance to check that out.

Real quick but again uh the main difference is again fingerprint scanner on the back fingerprint scanner, that's built into the power button and then here the fingerprint scanner is built in directly into the display. So if we try to power it on, we put the fingerprint scanner, we can unlock our device and get into it, and that was one of the pictures I was taking in the backyard there. Now when it comes down to the display sizes, we're looking at a 6.6 inch display fully AMOLED curved edge, display, 60 hertz up to 700 nits, and here on the 20s. We have a 6.67 inch so for the most part, roughly a same dimension display the only difference between the two is that this is a flat display, and this is a curved display. Now, when we move over to the 20se, which is essentially again a more budget friendly.

This one has a 6.8-inch, HD plus. So this is a 720p 1080p resolution all running at 60 frames per second and, of course, uh. This is going to be obviously 100 DC, ip3 and, of course, pixel works i6 processor, which gives us the ability of enjoying some of that content keep in mind. TCL is known for their displays, so they are not going to disappoint you, regardless of which version of the tcl20 series you decide to pick up, but definitely one of the first things you'll notice is from the 10 pro. The display definitely did get a little bigger.

The fingerprint scanner is still in the display, but you definitely appreciate the dimension and the improvements that they've done. We still have that smart key, that's present. On the left side on the top, we have the ability of using the headphone jack, as well as the IR blaster, which is definitely something that is unique, so you're able to control your TVs again. They are known for their TVs on the bottom. We have USB microphone, bottom firing, speaker and, of course, the sim tray that also supports a SD card.

So not only do you get 256 gigs of internal storage with the 20 pro, you definitely have the ability of expanding that storage with a SD card again something that we've carried over from last year. The biggest aesthetic change, though, is that we went from an entirely smoky gradient. Look on the back with the 10 pro. Now we have more of a solid green color. Yes, fingerprint magnet but definitely looks super, super nice and the camera sensors now are aligned more along the line, as opposed to being sideways, so definitely a better configuration for whenever you're taking images.

So now that all the sensors are actually set at the same level, you no longer have to kind of adjust a little between the sensors if you're, switching between the standard focal length or the ultra-wide. As far as the processing power and ram and storage availability we're looking at the 750 g hero with the 20 pro, this can also be featuring six gigs of ram 256 gigs of internal storage, again uh expandable, with the micro SD card. When we look over on the 20s we're looking at the snapdragon 60 series, the 665, with four gigs of ram 128 gigs of internal storage, with micro SD support, which is definitely very nice again flat, display curved edges on the display here flat display and then a flat display on the 20se. Now this one's going to be running the snapdragon 400 series at the 460. , this one's going to have a four gigabyte, uh internal ram and, of course, 128 of storage, again all supporting micro SD cards.

Now, when we start looking at the UI elements, of course, we have android 11 under the hood. We have the Google Assistant or the feed on the left side on the right side, you're able to download, install applications, you're able to customize it with either gestures or button navigation. Dark mode is also present. Here and again, as I mentioned to you guys, we do have 5g here. This is the tcl20 pro I am running it currently on T-Mobile, so I'll go ahead and turn off this one, and then we'll slip it up and, as you can see right, there we're picking up 5g here in the US now currently only available on T-Mobile, and I was able to also get a T-Mobile Wi-Fi calling here using the TCL 20 pro.

So it definitely looks really nice, and it works very nicely under the configuration we have all the options that we've seen before customization, adding emergency contact information, Wi-Fi Bluetooth connectivity. We do have NFC, obviously USB power charging USB audio. Of course, android auto home screen configuration display configuration again with dark mode that it is also supporting now. NTP vision is something that obviously we always want to be able to turn on. It enhances the video, especially with the TCL displays now.

The other thing I didn't get a chance to mention to you guys is that we have an AMOLED display on the 20 pro, but we have IPS LCD on both the s and the SC. So that's something to keep in mind when you're. Looking at the different configurations, although all of them are running at 60 frames per second, the display here under the NTP vision, which is present on all three needs to turn on image, enhancement and video and game enhancement, which enables us to have a very nice, very rich colors on the TCL displays, and I'll definitely do a real quick demo. For you guys, we have reading mode eye comfort and, of course, sunlight display. That was also kind of the ability of boosting the uh for the brightness up to the 700 nits notification, buttons and gestures.

As I mentioned advanced features you can go in there, we do have access still to the edge bar. That's one of the new features that they brought in, and this one seems to be present on all three versions of their devices. Fingerprint quick launch enables us to launch activities by holding and press and holding the fingerprint sensor after unlocking the device game mode gives us some additional features. Keeping in mind that this was running the 750 g, the g is for gaming, so definitely some focus there for gaming experience, one-handed mode screen, recording and, of course, multi-user for multiple users on the same device. Last but not least, smart manager, we have obviously auto start memory, notifications, security and biometrics location, privacy, apps and, of course, we have access to private app private space within the entire UI.

So we do have access to private uh private space applications directly with the Neo UI element, storage, again, 256 on this model, 128 and 128 on the other ones, all supporting SD cards. Of course, you can log in with your Google play account or google account and customize. You know digital well-being and everything else on that as well, and I could see here, everything is pretty much the exact same, the only main difference between the three devices when it comes down to the capacity um. All three of them are supporting wire charging at up to 18 watts. Although the tcl20 pro supports wireless charging for up to 15 watts as well, is the fact that the battery on the 20 pro is a 4 500 milliampere battery and the other two are 5 000, milliampere, and I'll.

Explain to you one thing to keep in mind the device itself. The 20 pro is definitely the sleekest, definitely very design forward, uh approach when it comes down to their smartphone, so to do that they had to kind of fit the capacity of the battery to fit the size of the device. You'll notice again, the pro is by far looking at least it looks like it'd, be the smallest of the three, even though it's the same display size on both of these guys same resolution. But again we definitely get some of the best technologies with the 20 pro. I'm pretty sure you guys want to know exactly how the cameras work.

The camera UI is very much similar across all three different devices. You have additional modes that you're able to bring up there, there's an auto mode for front facing and back facing sensors. The video mode will change depending on the device that you're on 4k 30 frames per second is going to be the primary function here. So let's go ahead and switch over here.4K 30 frames per second with a 16 by 9 aspect ratio with the 48 megapixel sensor. Now the good thing about it is, if I switch over to the front-facing camera, we're not compromising that experience, we're still able to shoot 4k 30 frames per second, so you're, benefiting from a consistent experience on the front-facing sensor, as well as the primary main sensor in the back.

So that's the main benefit here and of course, we have video stabilization using electronic image stabilization. We have portrait imaging, obviously super night mode and pro I'll have obviously some more time to spend with those. Initially, I would say my pictures that I was able to take in the backyard we've been going through a massive heatwave within the last couple of days here in southern California. So I will probably say is what you're seeing right now is some samples from the backyard. I took some images, of course, some portrait images there and, of course, an image of our one, tiny little bird house that we have backyard there.

Images look really nice very crisp, and I will spend obviously more time to be able to do a full uh, full readout, at least or full experience, uh, sorry and, of course, I'll definitely be working on a full experience with the camera, as I publish the review, hopefully within the next week or so, but that kind of gives us a quick glimpse into what we get here with the 20 pro again. The primary shooter here is a 48. The secondary is a 16 megapixel, that's going to be the ultra-wide. So although the configuration may seem like it's changing, the experience is definitely focused here for the best experience you can get now, switching it over to the 20s. The 20s gives us a slightly different experience.

We have a 64 megapixel primary shooter in the back and that's going to be the experience you're getting there again, similar camera modes that we get with the 20 pro auto video portrait super night and then, of course, pro the biggest thing on the video here is. If we go into the settings configuration again, 4k 30 frames per second available on the primary shooter on the back, and if we switch over to the front, let's go ahead and switch cameras, and I'll go ahead and turn it over 4k 30 is also supported here, so definitely a very similar experience to what we get with the 20 pro and what you're. Looking at some pictures here, as well as the video I took in my backyard again, some nice really hot summer days here in southern California, so definitely just representative of what you're able to do and definitely will focus heavily on the camera experience in our full review. That's coming up very soon. Now the 20se features a slightly different experience again.

The primary shooter is a 48 megapixel sensor and I feel like that's going to be the primary best sensor that you're able to get there on the front. We have a 13, megapixel sensor, again, expandable storage, massive display, that's one thing: uh, the shin, the chin and the forehead are definitely a little bigger, but keep in mind. This is the budget-friendly version of all three of these devices. So when it comes down to the camera, experience we'll go down into the camera. Some of the additional options that we have here under more are a little more tailored to it.

We have an auto mode, video portrait, AI color and pro you notice. The super night mode is not available here. The camera experience or at least under video, the best experience we're going to be able to get is 1080p30 and 1080p30 on the front and the back. So that's what you're, essentially looking at right now is some images that I took in the backyard, and I tried to be more consistent to take the same images with all three devices so that you guys can see some of those experiences' portrait photography as well as 1080p video from the main sensor on the back now. The last thing I want to share with you guys real quick before we come into our conclusion of this hands-on is obviously the speakers or the sound experience.

Now all of them are playing the exact same song here. We just need to make sure that it's sitting at the 52 seconds, it's exactly right where the drop is, so we're going to start off and again all of them are running at 100 uh volume level, so we'll go ahead and start off with the 20 pro I'll go ahead and play Alex crindojumbo from NCS release definitely sounds pretty good, and it can get pretty loud now I will mention that this one only has a one firing. Speaker that's going to be mono on the bottom. We don't have a stereo experience, jumping over to the 20s again same song about the same spot. Volume level is at 100: let's go ahead and start now.

The experience here is slightly different, definitely not as loud as the 20 pro. But although we do have a more of a scary experience, there is a little of sound coming in from the top earpiece, but the sound definitely sounds a lot louder and more brassier on the 20 pro, but again, definitely a very nice experience for the price point that we're looking at last but not least, the 20se. This is going to be the budget. Guy of all three of these devices again same position same song: let's go ahead and start of course, the volume level all the way to 100. Before we finish our quick hands-on, I do want to mention that every single one of them also features a programmable key.

Now the smart key is configurable directly within the application that we have in here. So under the settings, just look for the word: smart key, uh single press right now we have it. We can turn it on. You can have it customized to either launch the Google Assistant, so we'll go ahead and do that once so. As far as the configuration you can customize, obviously the experience based on what you want so right now I have single press opens up the camera very simple.

Although keep in mind you do have the ability of double pressing here, the power button that gives you the same function, double pressing. It will open up the assistant. For me, that's also very nice, and again you can re-customize it now pressing and holding it will open a third-party application. This is called the app manager, and this is something that that's built in here to most TCL devices that enables it to basically kill background processes and so on. So if you like to use it, you can definitely have it there.

You can customize it, and again it's present on all three of the TCL 20 series devices, so TCL is providing as a device for each experience. They want to offer us if you're looking for a budget friendly device, the brand new tcl20 SE, will give you that experience large display, large battery decent cameras and, of course, uh just intended to last you for an extended amount of time, with a great experience, definitely focused on the display. So when we go over to the 20s, the battery stays again 5 000 milliampere, we got bumped up a little on the internal storage as well as the ram and, of course, the experience kind of follows there. With the 64 megapixel sensor that we have the primary shooter there, the 20sc has a 48. This one has a 64.

Now when it comes down to the best of the best that they have to offer for 2021. The 20 pro obviously is a jump, a massive jump forward from what we got last year with the 10 pro first I'll say it's a bigger display, uh. We have obviously a 5g connectivity with the 750g processor that we get directly here, as well as the fact that we have obviously the aesthetics. The device looks a little more refined. The look on the back, the cameras are aligned in the right format, at least in my opinion, whenever you're taking pictures, you always want to make sure that all of your cameras are at the same level, so that, if you switch from the wide angle lens to the primary shooter, all the cameras have the same positioning.

So you don't have to readjust to get the same frame. That's primarily the best experience that I can say now, I'm still going to be working on providing you a review on each one of these guys. Today's video was primarily focusing on everything that was announced at CES, and we finally have it here in the US now. The last thing I did want to mention to you guys- which, unfortunately I don't have my hands on it yet last week, TCL did make the announcement about the NTP, where g now, those are the glasses that I got a chance to check out back at CES a couple of years ago, where they enable us to connect to the 20 pro and that's going to be the initial support that we get right now and gives us the ability of using basically almost like a large display format in a class, obviously configuration that goes with you everywhere. So you're able to basically have a massive display connected to your smartphone anywhere.

You are now that's going to be coming up later on. Hopefully I'll have some time to spend with that. So I'll share with you guys my experience, I'm very excited to see what TCL is doing here and obviously giving us the best experiences again from the professional, the flagship version of their smartphones, all the way down to the budget friendly. Now, if you stayed with me all the way to this point I will share with you. Guys, obviously, is that there is a couple of coupons that will be available for you guys in the description below for the tcl20 pro and the tcl20s uh use the coupon as you're checking out uh during with Amazon, and you'll, be able to get a free pair of buds.

Now they're going to be slightly different buds, depending on the smartphone that you're picking up but again make sure you use the right coupon for the right device, and you're definitely going to be enjoying that, and that feature is going to be available only this week throughout this week. I think on Amazon so hope you guys get a chance to pick it up and check it out and hope you guys enjoy the headphones. But again, at the end of the day, I'm really excited to see what TCL has to offer us all the way from the 189 starting TCL, SC and all the way getting us to the 499, with the 20 pro keeping in mind that the 10 pro is now 299 on Amazon. So if you want to pick up last year's flagship from TCL, it's 300 bucks. It's literally about the same price as the 20s yeah, the 20s, that we have right now, you're still able to get some of the best experiences from TCL even from last year.

At that price point like and subscribe as usual. Thank you very much for the support, and I'll see you in the next one.
