Earlier this month, TCL announced its plans to launch six new tablets as well as numerous handsets including the TCL 30 V 5G, TCL 20 Pro 5G, and TCL 20B. The company has now unveiled the entry-level 305 handset in Europe at a high price. Do note that Redmi phones offer mid-range specs for this kind of pricing so TCL’s high price for this phone seems odd.
Here are all the specifications and features of the latest product:
Design & Display
TCL 305 features a 6.52-inch IPS LCD with HD+ resolution, 20:9 aspect ratio, 450 nits of brightness, and 269ppi pixel density.
The TV maker claims that the handset offers an 89.11% screen-to-body ratio and it is available in Space Gray and Atlantic Blue colors.

TCL 305 is powered by the MediaTek Helio A22 and features 2GB of LPDDR4x RAM with 64GB internal storage. The smartphone also features a microSD card slot.
The handset comes pre-installed with Android 11 Go Edition, a low-power version of Android 11 designed for entry-level phones. The handset also supports dual 4G VoLTE, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth, a USB-C port, and a 3.5mm audio jack.
Camera
The teardrop notch display of the TCL 305 includes a 5MP selfie camera. The rear of the device features a 13MP main camera lens, a 2MP macro sensor, and an LED flash.
The device also supports various photography modes including bokeh, panorama, HDR, and 30fps 1080p video capture.
