TCL unveils today the TCL 10 series that consists of the TCL 10 5G, TCL 10 Pro, and TCL 10L. Instead of going after the flagship segment, the company is positioning the products as an affordable offering.

TCL is like HMD Global, it goes slow, but has some formidable products. The company was also authorized to make BlackBerry-branded phones. However, lately, we’ve seen them focus on their original brand name that’s quite famous in the television segment.

Starting with the TCL 10 5G, it has a 6.5-inch Full HD+ display with a punch-hole cut-out. Powering the phone is a Snapdragon 765G processor with 6GB RAM and 128GB internal storage. For authentication, a physical fingerprint scanner has been included on the back.

On the rear is a quad-camera setup consisting of a 64MP primary camera, an 8MP wide-angle lens, along with unspecified 5MP and 2MP lenses. On the front is a 16-megapixel selfie shooter located in a punch-hole cut-out.

Backing these internals is a 4500mAh battery that supports Quick Charge 3.0. The phone ships with Android 10 out-of-the-box. It’ll be available in Chrome Blue and Mercury Grey color options.

The TCL 10 Pro, on the other hand, has a 6.5-inch OLED display with Full HD+ resolution but a tiny water-drop notch. Powering the phone is a Snapdragon 675 processor with 6GB RAM and 128GB internal storage. Unlike the 5G option, this one sports an in-display fingerprint scanner.

It has the same camera setup as the TCL 10 5G on the rear, but a 24-megapixel selfie camera. It also gets the same battery setup that can deliver 4500mAh of power along with Quick Charge 3.0 support.

Lastly, the TCL 10L has the same display as the TCL 10 5G, but is powered by a Snapdragon 665 processor. It comes with 6GB RAM and 64GB or 128GB internal storage configuration. It has a 4000mAh battery, but there’s no mention of fast charging.

On the rear is a quad-camera setup consisting of a 48-megapixel primary camera, an 8-megapixel wide-angle lens, a 2-megapixel macro lens, and a 2-megapixel depth sensor. It’ll be available in Arctic White and Mariana Blue color options.

Pricing and availability

The TCL 10 Pro will retail for US$ 449.99 while the TCL 10L will sell for US$ 249.99. Both will be sold online at Amazon, Best Buy and Walmart.

Each device will come in one color option at launch: The 10 Pro will come in Ember Gray and 10L will come in Mariana Blue. Both phones will be coming to Canada later this summer. More details to come closer to Canada’s launch.

Pricing and availability for the TCL 10 5G have yet to be released.

The iPhone 18 might sell out for an unexpected reason

The ongoing shortage might play a part in the phone selling out earlier than expected.

An iPhone selling out is not news. Because of how popular the phones are, it’s within the realm of probability that Apple runs out of stock at some point. According to a new report, this year won’t be any different… but it’s for an entirely different reason.

First reported by analyst Tim Culpan, Apple is reportedly struggling to meet its demand for semiconductors for the iPhone 18 and the foldable iPhone. The ongoing memory shortage is cutting off Apple’s ability to deliver the required supply of smartphones in a timely fashion. The report even claims that TSMC, which helps produce the iPhone, is sitting on a shipment of processors, worth US$ 1 billion, that don’t have memory chips.

Now, Apple is still confident that it can weather the launch. However, if the shortage persists, the iPhone 18 generation will likely sell out much more quickly than expected.

It’s an interesting time for Apple to experience such a shortage. It’s been heavily rumored that the company will launch its very first foldable phone next month, creating a new market for the brand. Apple definitely wants this attempt to succeed after the tepid response to its last new product, the Vision Pro.
