About the TCL 60

The TCL 60 is an entry-level 5G phone built around endurance and screen size rather than speed. TCL has given it a 6.7-inch 120Hz panel, so scrolling and menus feel smoother than the price suggests, though the HD+ resolution means text and images are noticeably softer than on phones with a full HD screen. The MediaTek Dimensity 6300 handles messaging, streaming and social apps without fuss but is not built for demanding games. What makes it easy to live with is the practical stuff: a 5,200mAh battery that regularly stretches past a day, a generous 256GB of storage with microSD expansion on top, stereo speakers and a 3.5mm headphone jack that most phones have dropped. Protection is only IP54, so it copes with rain and splashes but should not be submerged. This is a phone for someone who wants dependable 5G, plenty of space for photos and music, and a battery that does not need watching, rather than the sharpest screen or the fastest chip.

Frequently asked questions

Is the TCL 60 worth buying?
It is worth considering if you want 5G, a big battery and lots of storage from a budget phone. The HD+ resolution on a 6.7-inch screen is the main compromise, and the Dimensity 6300 is not suited to heavy gaming, but for calls, messaging, streaming and social apps it does the job.
Does the TCL 60 have a headphone jack?
Yes. The TCL 60 keeps the 3.5mm headphone jack, so wired headphones work without an adapter. It also has stereo speakers rather than the single bottom-firing speaker common at this level.
Does the TCL 60 support 5G?
Yes, the TCL 60 is a 5G phone, using the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 chipset for 5G connectivity on all UK networks. It also supports dual SIM.
Can you expand the storage on the TCL 60?
Yes. It comes with 256GB of built-in storage and adds a microSD card slot, which is unusual at this price and useful if you store a lot of photos, videos or offline music.
Is the TCL 60 waterproof?
No. It carries an IP54 rating, which means it resists dust ingress and light water splashes such as rain, but it is not designed to be submerged. Treat it as splash-resistant rather than waterproof.
Should I get the TCL 60 or the TCL 60R 5G?
The two are closely related, sharing the same 6.7-inch 120Hz screen, Dimensity 6300 chipset, 5,200mAh battery and IP54 build. The TCL 60 gives you more memory at 6GB RAM and 256GB storage, plus faster 18W charging. The 60R sits below it with 4GB RAM, 128GB storage and 10W charging.

Based on main-sensor size (1-inch / 1/1.3" beats 1/2.0"), telephoto reach (periscope > 5x > 3x optical), image processing tier (Apple Pro, Pixel Pro, Galaxy Ultra, Honor Magic Pro, Xiaomi Ultra), pro video features (ProRes, Apple Log, Dolby Vision), camera-partnership branding (Leica, Hasselblad, Zeiss) and OIS. Older flagships are de-rated since image processing pipelines have advanced significantly each generation. Megapixel count is deliberately downweighted — it correlates poorly with real-world camera quality.

Based on battery capacity (mAh) adjusted for platform efficiency calibrated against NotebookCheck, Tom's Guide, GSMArena and CNET reviewer tests. Apple A-series gets +45% (iOS process freezing + LTPO 1Hz + tuned panels make iPhone Pro Max outlast many 6500+ mAh Android phones in measured tests). Top Snapdragon / Dimensity flagships get +15%, budget chipsets are penalised −15% to −25% to reflect less efficient displays and looser background limits. Charging speed is excluded — see the separate Fast charging tag for that.
