Deutsche Telekom’s T Phone models are designed to provide everyone with affordable access to digital services without compromising on 5G. Already the very first T Phone versions were designed to drive digital inclusion across Europe. Everyone should have the opportunity to connect with everything that is important to them at top speed. The T Phone 2 series follows this path.

The heart of the new T Phone models is the Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 processor − a breakthrough feature in this price segment. A 6.6-inch FHD+ 120 Hz display (T Phone 2) or the 6.8-inch FHD+ AMOLED 120 Hz display (T Phone 2 Pro) ensure comfortable usage – smooth and steady thanks to 6 GB or 8 GB RAM.

A 50 MP triple camera and 8 MP front camera (T Phone 2) and the 50 MP quad camera and 16 MP front camera (T Phone 2 Pro) deliver precise photos. The camera of the T Phone 2 Pro includes optical image stabilization.

The new T Phones demonstrate that eco-design and a convincing price-performance ratio are not mutually exclusive: They received excellent results in the Eco Rating. With a score of 88/100 for T Phone 2 and 84/100 for T Phone 2 Pro, both devices find themselves well ahead in the ranking.

High Eco Rating and #GreenMagenta reflect the significant reduction in CO2 emissions through intelligent resource management. The devices are characterized by above-average recyclability and are packaged in sustainable, plastic-free materials with minimized size.

Sustainable usage on customers’ side is facilitated by the fact that the new T Phones receive monthly Telekom software and security updates as well as Google System Updates for three years. In the fourth and fifth year, software updates will be available on a quarterly basis. Both models will receive two operating system upgrades.

The T Phone 2 costs 199 € and the T Phone 2 Pro 299 €. T-Mobile US simultaneously launched these new devices under the REVVL brand in the US market.
