TCL 20 SE Unboxing & First Impressions || I Was Curious! By TechTalk

Hi guys welcome back to the channel, so today I'm going to do a quick, unboxing and first impressions of the TCL 20se. Now this was released at the beginning of the year alongside the TCL 20s. I think and pro this is the budget option, so I'm just going to unbox it see what it looks like to be perfectly honest. I bought this phone out of curiosity. Furthermore, I've never used a TCL product before. Obviously we know that they're well known for making TVs and then obviously they branched into phones.

So this is the second generation. Obviously the TCL 10 came out last year, so I'm just going to unbox this now and just have a look and see what it's like. Okay, so I got the ccl20se in aurora green. It's also available in a black color as well. It comes with four gigabytes of ram and 64 gigabytes of internal storage and from what I've seen it's a hefty phone.

You get a 6.82-inch HD display. So that's the aurora green. It actually looks quite nice to be perfectly honest and there we go that ain't bad. So you get your fingerprint sensor on the back quad camera setup, which says a 16 megapixel main sensor, a 5, megapixel, ultra-wide camera and then two 2 megapixel depth and macro cameras as well. On the right hand, side, you've got your power button and your volume rocker and then on.

The left is a dedicated Google Assistant button and your sim tray on the bottom is your USB port, which supports 18 watt fast charging which isn't the fastest, but then again for such a cheap phone. You can't really complain, and then you've got speakers as well and then at the top you've got a headphone jack and a microphone and then in the earpiece. There is actually another speaker. So there's dual speaker support on this phone, so this phone 99 quid is what I paid for, which is just insane money for to be honest, what it looks like which is actually really nice, and then you get a quad camera set up a very large 5000 William battery, I'm just going to switch it on, and then I'll use this as my daily phone for a week, something like that or a few days whatever I decide, and then I'll do a more in-depth review in a week or so or in a couple of weeks. So we just powered on obviously powered by android TCL logo there.

So at the top there's a bit of a nipple notch which houses the selfie camera and then at the bottom, there's a relatively sizable chin on the bottom there. If I just set that aside, just while it's loading up and just have a look at the rest of the box, so you get a screen protector which you have to apply yourself, which isn't too bad a clear case: your paperwork, your power adapter and USB cable. So it's kind of sort of chucked in there. It's not in there in any nice arrangement, but I'm not really that bothered to be perfectly honest. Okay, so it's booted up, I'm just going to put all my information in, and then we'll have a quick squint at the OS and see how it runs.

Okay. So all my info is set up on the TCL 20se been having a little fiddle through the UI for around 20 minutes or so and, to be honest, I'm quite impressed with the phone everything works pretty smooth jumping into the settings. It's got a very sort of stock android, look to it very sort of reminiscent of the Motorola G series phones, my motor g30, except the not vision, section and TCL account and all that sort of stuff. This looks very, very similar. So, of course, you've got your normal Wi-Fi Bluetooth, sim card networks, all that sort of stuff home and knock screen all your settings for that are in there display.

This is where you can sort out your dark mode, auto rotate status bar and notch. You can just flip into that. If you don't like the little nipple notch on the top, of course, you can get rid of that not vision, which I think is just TCL's TV technology that they brought to their phones which, by the looks of it, enhances the sharpness and the contrast and all the colors of everything. That's on your screen to make everything look a bit punchier and a bit nicer. Obviously, you've got your sound and vibration all the normal stuff.

There notifications, buttons and gestures, three fingers, screenshots split screen double tap to wake, and then, if you can go on there, you've got full gesture support or of course you can use the buttons as well, but I like to keep the gestures, because that's what I use on all my phones and I found that it's pretty, pretty straightforward to use so running. The TCL 20se is the low range snapdragon 460 processors. So, of course, performance is going to be very limited. Opening apps, you might notice a little of a delay, but I haven't found it to be that noticeable to be honest bit of a pause on that one and loading up there. There is a little of a pause, but, to be honest, it's not anything that I'm going to be that fussed on it's not going to be a dealbreaker.

This apps' tray is a little different to what other apps trays are it's organized into different sections, so you've got media utilities, google system, TCL own apps, games, weather app in life apparently, and then others, which does make it quite good and quite easy to search for what you want and in terms of the screen, it's a 6.82-inch HD display with a 720p resolution. So of course, visuals are not going to be up to the scratch of a full HD display.263 PPI is what you get on the TCL 20se, so it is very similar to what I've got on the Motorola g30, and I've come to be used to that. To be perfectly honest with you, it's perfectly usable, I've got no issues using it out in the daytime. I did go out into the garden with the sun out, and it is perfectly usable in there on the side of the phone. You've got your power button and your volume rocker on the left.

You've got your dedicated Google Assistant button and your sim tray and then on. The back is your fingerprint sensor and your quad camera set up there, which consists of a 16 megapixel main sensor, a 5 megapixel ultra-wide and then two 2 megapixel macro and depth cameras. So the ultra-wide camera has been downgraded to a 5 megapixel sensor down from the 8 that you normally find on. Other phones we'll see how that performs in terms of the look of the phone. It's actually a really nice aurora green TCL cooler.

It is made of plastic, but it is quite a nice color, and then you've got kind of that two-tone effect there. Furthermore, it is a big phone. Okay! So don't get me wrong. This isn't a small phone. I found that the 10 tea light and the Poco x3 pro were quite big, but this is bigger again.

So if you're someone that's coming from a small phone and that isn't used to having large phones like this in your hand, then this might not be the phone for you, but if you're someone that's had maybe like a Motorola, g9 plus or anything like that or g9 power, something that's quite big, then this shouldn't be too much of an issue. Okay, so that's my first impressions of the tcl20 SE I'll see how it does in a week or so when I use it as my full-time phone go through the cameras and the performance and all that sort of stuff. So far, I'm quite impressed with what I paid. I mean it was 99 quid, so I'm not expecting huge amounts from it but, like I said, see what it's like and thank you for watching. If you do enjoy this video, you know what to do.

You.
