I wanted something small enough to fit in a pocket. This does just that. The screen quality's good. The sound quality's good - could maybe stand to go a little louder, but it's functional. I like that the case forms an edge around the screen, so I can actually hold the thing without accidentally activating something. The battery life is good.
My only complaint is that I wish the camera quality was a little better, but I knew that going in.
Overall this phone is serving me very well, and an excellent value for the price.

It was received without a charger..phone seems not bad, review is overshadowed by sender error.
Edited from original review:This was received missing the charging cord and the “block” (if was to be included), being only the phone and paperwork loosely falling out of the box, not packed properly with a protective sheet over phone screen, instead having slight smudges upon, realizing I was sent a refurbished or renewed model, not a NEW one. 😟My first thought was having to return, but was anxious to see if the phone worked, to see if the battery was installed, choosing it due to a specific phone service compatibility, being limited in phones available to use with them. Trying to locate a compatible charging cord for at home, I did, but was displayed that it was “slow charging” and to “use the proper charger”. 🫤 I felt anxious to see it work, there not being many compatible phones for Tello service with a T-Mobile connection. As soon as installing my Sim card given by Tello, it displayed T-Mobile on the screen, so I then I went thru settings and made test calls / texts, and was working.ANYWAY…after trying the phone, there are some features that I am liking, so I suppose it is okay, but I am unhappy to have not had the charger included (and as others have stated, it NOT being a “type C” as described in the product information, but rather a Micro USB), not provided, AND feel I should be refunded something since apparently it being refurbished, which I had contacted the seller and Amazon, regarding.*To add from product description: “Product will come with a SIM removal tool, a charger and a charging cable”. As mentioned, the charging cable was missing, AND the other items. I had to order a separate charging cable, getting only a small amount credited by Amazon, and NOT from the seller who made NO effort to correct the error. (It figures that this would occur with a phone I would want, since it works with chosen service).* The seller had said it “was up to Amazon”, though the seller was the one making the error. I was told I would need to send back to get another phone sent, in order to be refunded. The thing is, I did not want to fiddle with the Sim sent by Tello, in case it could get damaged, then would need THAT replaced, also. After speaking to Amazon, was told that I could get a slight refund. So, I unknowingly paid $108.41 for a refurb. phone sent by the seller, yet those being listed at $48.00. This is the first time I have had an issue like this and not too happy. 😒So, the phone itself seems okay, I like that navigating is quick, the phone being smaller and more lightweight, the features being straightforward, and the overall look is fine. I was initially overshadowed by the product-receiving issue, and was unsure about the phone. After getting a proper charging cord, I saw that it charges more quickly, seems to last a bit for my needs. The phone seems fine, I am just angry at the seller - LincolnWood or something, for the mishap.

The phone and its battery were seperately placed in the package box when it was delivered. It was quite easy to assemble the battery into the phone. You can even do that without the quick start guide. The package is also pretty which does not look like just a $100 phone.
The cellphone's processing and operations run really smoothly and quickly. You can open multiple apps one time and it will not affect its speed. I downloaded several newly released games such as Diablo Immortal and Genshin Impact, and all of them operated smoothly. The only concern is that the smartphone does not come with an additional RAM disk and it only has 32GB storage. So if you would like to download a lot of games or large apps, I would recommend you to buy another disk and insert it into the phone. A30 does provide a place to insert another memory disk.
In addition, it supports multiple Google apps which had been pre-installed on the phone. You don't need to spend a lot of time to find the apps and install them. The battery is also very long-lasting. I used it to play Genshin Impact for several hours with all best graphic setting, it still had much power left.
Overall, it's worthy with only $100 to get this impressive phone. If you have a budget plan for your smartphone, I would strongly recommend this TCL A30.

I got this smartphone to replace my old iPhone 6s since I wanted to try an Android Smartphone this time. I found several brand new phones from TCL news and eventually chose the A30 one.Reviewed in the United States on June 4, 2022

The phone feels plastic-y and flimsy. The entire time she used it, it was a little glitchy and didn't always connect to the cellular network very well (to be fair, though, she only had 500MB 4g data each month, that then dropped to 2g for the remainder of the month). Her sister's hand-me-down 2016 iPhone has faster connections. The glitchiness was mostly annoying, so we managed it. The battery life was good. Until it wasn't.
A few days ago, the phone stopped charging - it was giving a "low battery temperature" warning and wouldn't charge. If plugged in while turned off, the phone would say "Error! Please plug out charger!" Clearly, they are missing some quality control if their grammar is not correct.
It was easy to get a hold of tech support at TCL, after doing a factory reset, the issue persisted. They offered to warranty it because it was within a year of purchase, but wanted me to pay $20 for the shipping. That is 25% of what I paid for it.
I learned my lesson: TCL = Bad. Stick with Samsung.

Stopped working after 10 months. Bad warranty. Never buying TCL again.

I bought this for my daughter who was 13 at the time. It is definitely a cheaply made phone. We have always purchased Samsung Galaxy phones until this one. We purchased because it was a smaller smartphone and my daughter liked that.Reviewed in the United States on October 5, 2023

Buen precio por la RAM y tamaño. Pero se reinicia de repente. Aún no se por qué.
