    Had this phone for almost exactly 3 years, was the only option I had with an aux jack. That jack died in less than 3 months. Otherwise, excellent phone for its price. Shame that every new TCL has less ram than this did, even 3 years later

        Anonymous, 13 Sep 2021please tell me is the call signal strong or not?Late reply, but in my experience, the reception on this phone is not as good as most phones, on Tmobile that is, perhaps because it lacks one of the LTE bands (71). Otherwise I am very satisfied with the phone.

            TCL Android 5g is so frustrating! The manufacturer designed it so you cannot change the number of rings before voicemail picks up. Don't like this.

              I've had the phone for over a year now and I'm very happy with it, it offers a lot more for its price and is not a bit behind more expensive models with similar hardware...these other comments are probably caused by improper handling.

                Battery lost power in the first 6 month's, had to recharge mid-day. Charging port failed at 10 month's. Seemed to consume vast amounts of Data without Downloading, streaming Videos or web surfing. It resides in a desk drawer now replaced by a Samsung.

                  Phone will freeze or crash almost every time it's charging. Sometimes it resets itself, most often it just locks up until a hard reset. EVERY TIME IT'S CHARGING.

                    I have the tcl and I hate it. I can't hear anybody unless I'm on speaker. I bought it 9 days ago and the speaker worked great the first week. I bought it at us cellular did not get the insurance they told me to call the company they guaranteed there phones. They had me do a reset and now they say to do a factory reset I asked to speak to a manager they said they would put it in the notes and it could be up to 72 hours. This is ridiculous

                      I have used this phone about 1 and half year, and is quite good, I never had some issues with it.The rear camera takes quite good picture.

                        Does the 10L have loud internal speakers? my older ZTE from the beginning had very weak speaker and in order to hear callers I had to turn on external speaker

I've used the phone for so long and it was quite alright. Now the phone takes over 6 hours for it to reach 100%. Could someone tell me how you deal with this issue!

                            I have had this phone (TCL 10L) for a little over a year now as my daily driver.
                            It is a very decent phone, especially for under $180.
                            My only gripes about it are:
                            The daytime visibility. You have to crank it all the way up to 100%.
                            And the battery. For regular use, it is very decent, but if you like to play mobile games or stream a lot of videos, you might get frustrated. This is a personal issue of mine, because it is well within the manufacturer's stated on screen battery life that it should have. So I don't feel cheated, just . . . frustrated a bit. Luckily, even though it is stated that it doesn't support fast charging, as long as you use the brick that comes with the phone, it charges up pretty quick.
                            The cameras are very decent, dare I say even very good. Again . . . you want over $500 phone camera quality, go spend over $500. But if you play around with them, you will get very decent pictures, even at night (no night mode).
                            But all in all, I am very happy with my purchase and strongly would consider another TCL phone in my future and would definitely recommend one. No GPS issue for me neither.

GPS has been wonky for months with location wandering around my app's map randomly. I checked all settings, even tried several compass apps to supposedly recalibrate my GPS, but nothing helped. This simple setting change fixed my issues as well. It would never occur to me to turn OFF location high accuracy setting to improve the accuracy of my phone's GPS. ;) But it did.

                                I have also disabled "Google Location Accuracy" and now mapping apps (Waza, Google Maps) work and track as they should. The only thing that I have noticed is that certain apps want this feature on. I always click No and the apps still seem to work as designed. Some apps will ask to turn "Google Location Accuracy" on repeatedly which is annoying. If it is turned on by accident then you will have to go back into settings and turn it back off. I have noticed that the GPS tracking doesn't recover immediately and have tried a number of things. Restarting the phone seems to help most times. When this first happend, I entertained sending the phone in for service/repair as it seemed like a hardware issue. TCL was no help at all as their Tech Support was under the impression that it was an issue that needed to be resolved by sending it in. They wanted me to send my phone in leaving me with oout a phone for weeks, maybe months. They should stick to making TV's as the TCL TV I have works better than my phone. Disable "Google Location Accuracy" until a fix comes out. I personally would not recommend sending the phone in to TCL. Thank you to the user that figued out the fix as I rely on the GPS often.

I believe my GPS accuracy is now fixed after disabling the "Google Location Accuracy." Neither the Amazon help agents nor TCL tech agents were able to help me with that. In fact, they all told me, "Make sure to have google location accuracy turned on." It is very ironic. What is funny is the Tech agent told me that there was an issue with the "SUPL servers" or something with A-GPS. But when I asked about figuring out how to disable the A-GPS and just rely on GPS, they replied with, "You can try returning your phone."
                                        I will wait for a few more days and continue to test the GPS to make sure it remains accurate after disabling Google Location Accuracy. So far it seems to be working.
