What CompareTab says about TCL 50 XL 5G vs Alcatel U5
TCL 50 XL 5G has clear advantages in memory, battery capacity and display refresh rate over U5, with 6 GB of RAM versus 1 GB, 128 GB of storage versus 8 GB, a 5010 mAh battery versus 2050 mAh, and a 120 Hz display instead of 60 Hz. It also adds a higher-resolution rear camera (50 MP versus 5 MP), a higher-resolution front camera (8 MP versus 2 MP), an ultrawide rear camera, and 18W charging. Alcatel U5, however, is around $50.99 cheaper and lighter at 168 g versus 195 g. The main trade-off is 50 XL 5G’s extra RAM, storage, faster charging, battery capacity, and smoother display versus U5’s lower price and lighter build.
