T-Mobile on Tuesday announced its third generation of REVVL phones will arrive on July 19. The REVVLRY and REVVLRY+ run Android 9 Pie and offer consumers mid-range alternatives to the likes of Samsung and LG.
Although they sound similar, and do resemble each other at first blush, there’s quite a bit different between the two devices. This might be expected, though, when you consider the $200 and $350 prices.
Both are sold in black, feature face unlock and fingerprint sensors, and 3,000mAh batteries. Dig deeper and you see it’s more than just slapping on a bigger display.
Not only do you get a larger screen in the REVVLRY+, but you also end up with more memory and storage, faster charging speeds, and better cameras. And, instead of just being water repellent, the larger model is IP54 rated against water and dust.
Other differences sprinkled in include a wider range of supported network bands as well as a more robust processor. As opposed to a wider cutout notch display, the plus-sized variant has a water droplet screen.
Win prizes, including a free phone
To celebrate the arrival of the new phones, T-Mobile will host launch events at each of its six “Signature Stores”. Indeed, there will be interactive booths with chances to win prizes, including the two REVVLRY devices. Visit one of these locations on July 19 for your opportunity to walk away with cool stuff.
