It is eligible, but it will never get it, nor is it getting security updates. Last Security update was April 1, 2022.

About headphones, if you use Poweramp you can set Wired a bit louder via HiRes to 384khz (No DVC) This option in the player sets the Dac to run a few dB higher (noticeably). Shame the onboard amp is indeed so mediocre as the sound is decent. And regular OpenSL bugs in apps, and there is no built in EQ to the OS. I have Android 12, T810H and havent had issues with crashes since i reset but i do wish TCL gave more customization and more patches. version v4.0.5EDW

Is there any updates on when will the stable Android 12 be available to the 20 Pro 5G? It's been over a year now since they announced the preview program.
Just wondering about it coz TCL is way behind now unlike other OEMs. Android 13 is available in a short time now.

Hi, i own this phone since 25th (got it for 275 GBP on a open box deal). T810H, not T810, and its UK, imported from TCL Europe to TCL France then.. i got it Ebay. For anyone asking how it is, i can answer some points honestly. Ive had a nice experience with the phone so far, nice AMOLED 1080p, 6GB RAM handles things still well, i dont game just consume a lot of media and browsing. Some things to note
-Came with Android 12 and was awaiting one security update in October 2022, installed it, and a Play security update.
- Came with transparent etui, but no screen protector, and most i tried get touch issues, so i settled for a aftermarket case.
- My 4G from 2019 Three PAYG SIM works fine with 5G. I use Wifi more tho, its not 6 but it downloads things pretty fast on a fibre, even onto a MicroSD 256gb Samsung EVO.
- Headphone jack is pleasant to listen to even if it could be louder but is enough. I use Sennheiser Momentum 1.0 18ohm and OneOdio A70 32ohm to test this. Fun sound, 32-bit 192khz support (yes, not just 24bit). Dont use OpenSL regular output, use AT or Hi-Res. Otherwise, screen lock causes music to pause (its not the processor its a bug, the device has no hardware equalizer app either but any software EQ works perfectly).
- Notifications all appear quickly after going to Smart Manager and disabling automatically manage and toggling the 'ALL' (allow) flag for apps, then notifications. Do NOT disable it, or remove it, you cant remove via ADB, if you disable, the built in UI skin over Android gets super buggy.
- If you get system corruption due to the attempts above, you will have to factory reset with /system mounted in Recovery Mode, (not regular Settings) like, volume up and power, to get back normal operation.
- No BL unlock code from TCL, so forget custom ROM for now, it should last a few years more though if you apply the security patches consciously and some scanning e.g. ESET.
- Checked nearly everything ADB PM listing and nothing that was known malware from old TCL days, no ability to remove system apps though, just disable and therefore bugs. MAYBE there is some telemetry like any Android.
- Its Widevine L1 certified even on 12 and i use Barclays temporarily just fine even NFC payments. DRM video in HD to my eye. Youtube can play 1080p60 just fine too.
- Music doesnt really pause on its own even in battery saver mode, but again, the app must be set not to use OpenSL (buggy) and make sure the app itself keeps the phone awake during lock in case you do, should solve it. General Android 11+ problem sadly w/permissions and powersavings.
Hope this helps, i dont mean to shill for the phone just tried to outline the details and share my mostly positive experience, with some things others did not mention, i personally like the phone but when i saw it on photo i thought it'd be bigger heh.

I brought this Phone in April 2022, by far the most frustrating phone I ever used. Terrible battery which lasted just 5 hours of normal usage and 2 hours of extreme usage! Bad cameras as well but the only great thing was there were some cool features in its operating system which were helpful.
Also no upgrade of OS Android from 10 to 11
