TCL 40 SE is the beautiful device that already officially announces at January 2023, this device adopting modern design with added multiple great features that can be use all their user directly.
The TCL 40 SE weight is 190gram and the body dimension of TCL 40 SE is 167.91 x 76.5 x 8.45 mm which is this the ideal physical body number dimension for modern devices today and the for the last introduction before we can do to the deeper things is the device also available on the Gray, Purple color user options.
But, the color options availability itself may be different on the specific market country, some the device color option will only available for limited number such as because the specific event time, after the event ended the color option may be not available for the buyer.
The TCL 40 SE using Plastic combination body material, that is very common build material typically found on the entry-level up to middle level devices on the market, plastic material body is not really bad on this modern era, but still this material body it's not solid on hand, look cheap and it may easily to scratch. So, the plastic body material should not be use for flagship devices on higher price range, if you found this material on the latest flagship device it should be minus thing for the user.
Display screen configuration is very important factor for the user experience, in this TCL 40 SE the setup of display screen are ideal which is bring 720 x 1600 pixels on the screen resolution combined with 6.75" screen size.

Yes, they are a good combination, this CPU and GPU setup can be use for handling multiple purpose on this device, such as for run some games, opening some apps, also have good performance when processing and rendering 3D image on the specific level that they can do at the maximal limit.
Besides CPU and GPU hardware, memory hardware is also very important sector for getting best experience for user when use that device for any multiple purpose, the memory sector itself are combination from the RAM capacity, internal memory storage and support for external expansion memory, then does TCL 40 SE is good enough on term of memory performance?
When we see the memory combination specification we can see the TCL 40 SE have 4GB / 6GB amount of RAM, then also have 128GB / 256GB internal memory storage capacity and the user can get more storage in this device, because TCL 40 SE does support external memory expansion with using MicroSDXC type.
Thus, is TCL 40 SE have a good memory performance? from the spec said TCL 40 SE it's good for use to any purpose in the modern use, but it's also depending from the user perspective need.
Just like other modern smart devices that exist today, TCL 40 SE also have camera feature for bringing best experience to their user, on the main / rear camera feature we can found Triple Setup camera configuration feature that exist on there.

The mobile network technology that using on TCL 40 SE are 2G / 3G / 4G, user can freely choose the mode of mobile network on this device, because they can switch easily every times when the user needed.
Actually, the best device for the modern use it should have multiple connectivity features on it, on the basic perspective the TCL 40 SE are already have complete connectivity features.
The wireless connectivity on TCL 40 SE that are already supporting by the Wi-Fi technology with the complete spec Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n and also supported by Bluetooth version 5.1, A2DP. The other great things that available on TCL 40 SE is fully support for NFC technology.
TCL 40 SE also supported by using wired connectivity that use USB Type-C Port technology. So, this feature can be very useful to their user for connecting TCL 40 SE to the other device such as Desktop Computer or other.
Because TCL 40 SE designed for the modern user, that mean TCL 40 SE should be operated by the smart Operating System, and the good thing is the TCL 40 SE already use smart OS that known as Android 13. The vendor of this device also make some customization from the basic Android 13 firmware then known as TCL UI 5.0 ROM, the goal of this thing will increasing more best experience for the user, because the more feature will be added on the TCL UI 5.0 ROM, that may can't be found on the basic OS.
Now, how about the security technology on TCL 40 SE? The TCL 40 SE have a powerful security protection because this device using default security system from the software OS then combined with the Fingerprint (at the side) security hardware technology, then it will give more secure from the stranger access.
