The TCL 40 SE phone is undoubtedly a great choice if you are looking for a decent entry-level phone with some necessary features to tweak with the software and to enjoy the usual social media consumption. These things are possible with this phone, and you won’t be disappointed if you set the bar low from the start. The phone got presentable camera quality with good display support. Furthermore, playing causal games won’t be a huge hassle for the phone, while battery life is overall remarkable. But still, the company cut corners to make this phone more cost-efficient for many users. Even after this, it’s worth recommending a deal if you don’t have any problem with slow performance. If you are looking for a decent alternative, you should consider Oppo A56s in the meanwhile.
