OPPO A 6x 4G vs TCL 605 4G

Our Verdict: If you are choosing between TCL 605 4G and OPPO A 6x 4G, portability is the main reason to lean one way. The TCL has a higher-resolution 50MP rear camera and a lighter 190g body; the OPPO mainly responds with a larger 6,500 mAh battery. A bigger mAh figure is useful context, but real battery life still depends on software and chipset efficiency. The TCL is the better fit for portability, while the OPPO is the one to consider for battery size.

Over a full contract, the 605 4G works out around £170 all-in, about £91 less than the A5 2020 6x 4G.
