TCL is set to release yet another phone apparently. Leaker Evan Blass has shared images of a device called the TCL 205 and by the looks of it, it's an entry-level smartphone.
The phone's display features a waterdrop notch for the front camera and it has a pretty sizeable chin. In terms of size, the bottom bezel sits between the TCL 20B and TCL 201 which were revealed in Brazil in October.
The leaked images also reveal that the TCL 205 has a dual-camera system on the back. The rear plate is seemingly made of plastic and has an iridescent finish. It looks like it will at least be available in the colors black and blue.

Nothing has been said about the specifications of the phone, but if it's a variant of the TCL 20B, we can expect it to have 64GB of expandable storage, a 4,000mAh battery with 18W charging, and a 50MP main camera with AI smarts like Smart HDR and Face Beauty modes. We can also expect it to feature a 6.52-inches display and rear-mounted fingerprint reader.
The TCL 205 also appears to resemble the Alcatel 1L Pro, which is also a budget device with a smaller battery and an inferior camera setup.
For now, all we can do is speculate.
