Editorial report
TCL 406S 3 GB / 64 GB / Global technical sheet
The TCL 406S is suited to anyone looking for a basic Android phone for everyday essentials; its main trade-off is modest memory and performance. This configuration has 3 GB of RAM and 64 GB of storage, with expandable storage. The MediaTek Helio G25 processor uses eight Cortex-A53 cores clocked at up to 2 GHz.
Its 6.6-inch IPS LCD display has a resolution of 720 × 1612 px and a density of 267 ppi, lower than that of most phones launched around the same time. The aspect ratio is 20:9. The 13 MP camera resolution is lower than that of most phones of its time, and its f/2.2 aperture is among the weakest. The phone also has a 2 MP depth camera and a 5 MP front camera. Slow-motion recording is not available.
The 5000 mAh battery capacity is typical for phones of its time, while 10 W charging is slower than on most. Android 13, NFC, USB Type-C, a 3.5 mm audio jack, and dual SIM round out the features. Overall, the TCL 406S ranks worse than most phones launched around the same time, with a NeoScore of 4.1. It is a straightforward option for basic Android use and practical connections, provided its limits in memory, display, cameras, and charging fit the intended use.
