GoSolo Read / what it means6 takeaways

display

120Hz, 550-nit IPS LCDScrolling is smooth, but at 720p on a 6.67-inch screen you will notice pixellation up close, and 550 nits is dim in direct sunlight compared to modern OLED.

performance

MediaTek Dimensity 6300, 8-coreThis chip handles everyday tasks and lighter games (Candy Crush, Call of Duty Mobile on lower settings), but will struggle with demanding 3D titles or heavy multitasking.

battery

5200mAh, about 1 day mixed useA 5200mAh battery with a 720p screen will give you roughly 9 to 11 hours of screen time; you will need to charge every evening if you use it moderately throughout the day.

connectivity

5G ready, 7 LTE bandsThe phone supports both 5G (where available) and LTE across multiple frequency bands, so it should work in most regions, but speeds depend on your carrier's network.

durability

IP54, 8.16mm thickIP54 means splash resistance (survives brief water spray), not full waterproofing; a thin 8.16mm body feels light but offers little protection if dropped.

storage

256GB internal, microSD expansion256GB is enough for most users; you can add up to 2TB via microSD card if you store large photo or video libraries.

GoSolo Verdict

The TCL 60 5G is a light, affordable phone with 5G and a clean software experience, but the 720p screen on a 6.7-inch display reveals visible pixels, and the Dimensity 6300 is adequate for everyday use, not games. For under €170, it hits the basics without pretending to be more than it is.

Strengths · 4

5G support and broad LTE band coverage for future-proofing across regions
Lightweight at 190g and thin at 8.2mm, genuinely pocketable
256GB storage with dedicated microSD slot and Android 15 keep it clutter-free for years
50MP main camera with f/1.8 and phase-detect autofocus handles daily shots well in good light

Trade-offs · 3

720p resolution on a 6.7-inch screen looks blocky up close; scrolling text or small UI elements are noticeably jagged
18W charging speed is glacially slow by 2025 standards; rivals at this price offer 33W or faster
Dimensity 6300 is entry-tier for this year; demanding games and heavy apps will lag
