Editorial report

TCL 30 XE 5G technical sheet

The TCL 30 XE 5G suits buyers looking for 5G connectivity and a 90 Hz display; its main trade-off is the camera. Its 269 ppi pixel density is lower than that of most phones of its time, while the 90 Hz refresh rate is typical. The IPS LCD display measures 6.52″ and has a resolution of 720 × 1600 px.

The MediaTek Dimensity 700 comes with 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of storage. Both amounts are lower than those of most phones of its time. Storage is expandable, which gives buyers the option to add room for more content. The phone runs Android 11 and includes Google services.

The 13 MP camera has a 1/3″ sensor and an f/2.2 aperture. Its resolution and sensor size are lower than those of most phones launched around the same time, and it has no optical image stabilization. Connectivity includes 5G, Wi-Fi 5, Bluetooth 5.1 and a 3.5 mm audio jack. The 4,500 mAh battery supports 18 W charging; both figures are typical. The TCL 30 XE 5G earns a NeoScore of 4.3 and sits below most phones launched around the same time. It makes sense for buyers who prioritize 5G and expandable storage and can accept a modest camera and low display pixel density.
