TCL has added to its 40 series lineup, debuting the TCL 40 XL, TCL 40 XE 5G, and TCL 40 X 5G at Mobile World Congress 2023.


Back in January, TCL made a slash at CES 2023, debuting its 40 series smartphones, along with new tablets, and even its first AR eyewear device. A month later, at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, the company is adding to its 40 series handsets with the debut of the TCL 40 XL, TCL 40 XE 5G, and TCL 40 X 5G. While both offer a lot of features, the significant part about these handsets is that they aren’t going to break the bank.


The TCL 40 XL will be priced at $149, while the TCL 40 XE 5G will come in at $169, and the TCL 40 X 5G will be priced at $199. Of course, these are prices before any type of carrier incentives, which could bring the phones prices down even further. Unfortunately, TCL was unable to share details about what kind of wireless carrier partners it would have, but we’ll be sure to add that information when it becomes available.

As far as internals, the TCL 40 XL will feature a MediaTek G37 octa-core processor that will be paired with 4GB RAM and 128GB of internal storage. If that amound of storage doesn’t sound like enough, the device will also have a microSD slot, making it easy to increase your storage, with support for up to 512GB. The handset will also have a large 6.75-inch HD+ display, immersive speakers and large battery coming in at 5,000mAh. When it comes to the rear camera, you’re getting a triple camera set, with the main shooter being a 50MP unit that paired with a 2MP telephoto and 2MP depth sensor.

When it comes to the TCL 40 XE 5G, it will have a relatively large 6.56-inch HD+ display with a 90Hz refresh rate and 180Hz touch sampling. The handset will be running a MediaTek Dimensity 700 processor, with 4GB RAM and 64GB of internal storage. Again, this smartphone will also have the ability to expand its storage using a microSD card. The rear camera will pack a triple camera array, making use of a main 13MP shooter. Furthermore, the handset will also have a 5,000mAh battery and a side mounted fingerprint reader.

As far as the TCL 40 X 5G, you’re getting pretty much the same internals as the TCL 40 XE 5G but a better camera, with a 50MP camera. While they might not be the most impressive handsets in the world, for under $200, the these devices deliver quite a bit of bang for buck. As to when they’ll arrive at store shelves, the TCL 40 XL will be made available in May, while the other two handsets will arrive in June. Of course, TCL has not shared the complete details when it comes to partner agreements, but you can bet we’ll give you an update when these make a proper retail launch.
