TCL 10 Pro and 10L get their first discounts and software updates

If you're stuck wondering which exact phone to buy, how about a mid-ranger from a company that's not really known for using its brand on smartphones?

Jokes aside, the TCL 10 Pro and 10L are solid mid-rangers, which launched back in May, after an April announcement. Now, a bit over a month after their initial availability, they're getting their first software updates. Not just that, but they've gotten cheaper too.

TCL 10 Pro

Let's address the updates first. The TCL 10 Pro's new version is v2.0.4D.H.D, while the 10L's is v2.0.3C.H.9. Both contain the May 2020 security patches (better late than never?), "enhanced system stability", improved camera performance, and not having the TCL watermark turned on by default in the Camera app. Additionally, the 10 Pro gets improved touch panel performance and user expereince.

Now on to the new prices. You can grab a TCL 10 Pro from Amazon for $381.65 (see Source 1 linked below), and the 10L for $211.65 (Source 2). Over at Best Buy, the prices are even lower: $379.99 (Source 3) and $209.99 (Source 4), respectively.

If you activate your TCL 10 Pro or 10L upon purchase, Best Buy is being even more generous - the 10 Pro can be had for $329.99, the 10L for $159.99. If you activate the 10L on Sprint and you're a new customer or add a line, the price goes down to $109.99. Similarly, the 10 Pro activated immediately on Sprint for a new customer or if you add a line will cost you just $279.99. The promo ends on June 28, so act fast if you're interested.
