TCL 501 Unlocked Android Mobile Phone | 6" Display, 32GB Storage, 2GB RAM, 5MP Camera, 3000mAh Battery | Blue

I've been on the look out for a cheap phone to use a remote control.Not only is this Android 14 (note it is the Go edition, which has some limitations) but it's at the price point of other Chinese cheap phones that don't work, where this one actually does!It is a bit sluggish and your not going to playing many games at a high FPS but for a remote control for Tuya, Roku etc... It's the perfect device at under £50!Screen is bright and viewing angels are great. Love the idea of a removable battery so it's replaceable if it degrades.Cheap cheerful and functional phone, oh and as a bonus it supports 5G!

Waste of time & money doesn’t work at all apps won’t download but it’s decent for a child as a dummy phone

Bargain phone does what you need it too.

great phone just one down side it keeps freezing when i am recieving incoming calls

It is a good basic phone, easy to use and set up, the camera is not as good as dearer phones but ideal for normal use.Overall the phone is ideal and serves all my requirements.

I really like mobile phone but it is battery isn't charging that will. It is Very difficult to find TCL 501 battery. I need new battery that wouldn't ever go to died on me.

brought this as a work phone 5 months ago because i'm sick of breaking expencive phones on the job. its held up well until now its a very tough and durable phone. the battery life is pretty terrible and its slow but it does everything you need from a phonestarted having an issue a few days ago. it displays a message saying has a verity curruption error and now the phone constantly restarts every time you use it for more then 5 mins making it nearly unusable.For people looking to buy a tcl 501 it is worth getting if you need a temporary budget phone but thats about all it is a cheap temp

Do not buy this phone- it's absolute rubbish! Can't run more than one app at a time without freezing and crashing. The UX crashes constantly, the battery life is horrible and it's constantly stops charging at random. Even at £50 this feels like a scam, you'd be better off with a 2010 Huawei than this piece of crap.
