At the Mobile World Congress 2025, TCL made official several smartphones that will arrive in Europe in March 2025. Sold between 150 euros and 250 euros, these mobiles complete the TCL 60 range that the Chinese firm began to unveil at CES in Las Vegas two months earlier. The goal is to compete with the very popular Galaxy A from Samsung and the Redmi from Xiaomi. Do they have what it takes to do so? Answer.
Every year, TCL takes advantage of the Mobile World Congress to renew its product catalog. In 2025, the 50 series will gradually give way to the 60 series. The Chinese firm had already presented at the last CES in Las Vegas the TCL 60 XE NxtPaper 5G, a phone offered at 200 euros and integrating the famous glare-free screen type "e-ink color". In Barcelona, it completes this series with several models sold between 150 euros and 250 euros. A range that wants to compete with the very recent Galaxy A that Samsung presented a few days ago.

Let's go into detail. The most expensive smartphone is called TCL 60 SE NxtPaper 5G. Sold at 250 euros, this model uses the screen of the TCL 60 XE NxtPaper 5G, while improving the technical platform: processor, RAM, storage, battery, etc. No fuss in this product, except for the NxtPaper technology, as well as the usual hardware button that allows you to switch from a standard display mode to an “e-book” mode.

TCL launches a full range of affordable smartphones
The TCL 60 SE NxtPaper is accompanied by three other models. The TCL 60 SE "standard" which takes the technical sheet of the NxtPaper version while making some adjustments on the processor, connectivity and photography. The TCL 60 R which maximizes its proposition on a few important points (5G, performance, battery), but which also makes big concessions to maintain a very aggressive price. And finally the TCL 605 which keeps the essentials for a very affordable price. These three phones are sold respectively for 199 euros, 179 euros and 149 euros.
