  • Today, T-Mobile launched the T-Mobile Revvl 2 and Revvl 2 Plus.
  • Both phones are budget devices but feature some pretty solid specs considering how much they cost.
  • The T-Mobile Revvl 2 and Revvl 2 Plus will be available starting November 16, 2018.

In the summer of 2017, T-Mobile launched the T-Mobile Revvl — a decent Android smartphone with an extremely affordable price. Today, the Uncarrier is finally releasing the follow-up to the original Revvl with the T-Mobile Revvl 2 and T-Mobile Revvl 2 Plus.

As one would expect, both phones exclusively work on the T-Mobile network and are optimized for T-Mobile service, which of course includes band 12 support.

Editor's Pick

To be clear, neither the Revvl 2 or Revvl 2 Plus will stack up against something like a Samsung Galaxy S9 or even a OnePlus 6T. However, T-Mobile is offering the devices for the low prices of $168 and $252 respectively, which is nothing to sneeze at. To sweeten the deal, T-Mobile will give you a Revvl 2 for free if you add a new line to your existing T-Mobile account (you can also add a line and get the Revvl 2 Plus for $84).

Both devices run Android 8.1 Oreo out of the box and feature rear fingerprint scanners, microSD expansion slots, and a full two-year warranty. Check out the unboxing video below to get a good look at the magenta-infused devices, and check out the specs table underneath to see what each device is packing.

The T-Mobile Revvl 2 and T-Mobile Revvl 2 Plus will be available at all T-Mobile stores and at T-Mobile.com starting November 16, 2018.
