Two months ago, Google released first developer preview build of upcoming Android 12 OS. And TCL is one of the first smartphone OEMs to adopt Android 12 and released the developer preview update for their smartphone. However, the first developer preview is limited to TCL 20 Pro 5G smartphone. If you’re using a TCL smartphone and want to if your TCL phone will get Android 12 update or not, then here you can check the complete list of TCL phones which will get Android 12 update.
Android 12 is one of the biggest updates for Android phones, thanks to the overhaul user interface, Material You dynamic theming, widgets, privacy dashboard, and more. Android users are eagerly waiting to get hands on to the upcoming Android 12 OS. And the smartphone OEMs are also started preparing to release Android 12 update for their smartphones. Talking about the TCL, then a couple of TCL phones could get taste of the next-generation Android OS.
TCL Android 12 Eligible Devices
Last year’s TCL 10L and TCL 10 Pro were announced with Android 10 OS. Both phones have recently received Android 11 update. While speaking to XDA Developers, TCL’s spokesman said, both phones will get at least one minimum major OS upgrade as well as the monthly security patch ever two months for two years.
Here’s the TCL spokesman’s statement:
“We can confirm both the TCL 10 Pro and TCL 10L will, at minimum, receive one major OS update as well as SMR updates every two months for 2 years.”
So, if the owners of TCL 10L and TCL 10 Pro are lucky, both the phones may get the Android 12 update. Aside from TCL 10 series, the newer models, aka TCL 20 series phones will get the Android 12 update. As I said earlier, the testing is already going on for the TCL 20 Pro 5G smartphone. Now let’s move on to the list of TCL phones which will get Android 12 update.
- TCL 20 Pro 5G (received)

Thanks for confirming, Anthony.
I will never ever buy another TCL product as long as I live! Horrible cheap phones made by Alcatel. Slow and buggy ,and poor battery life running Android 11.
Completely agree, horrible phones! I have the TCL 20 5G running Android 11, and it’s killed this phone to say the least. TCL customer service have never bothered to any emails for advice etc… NEVER AGAIN!
