Overview
- TCL’s NXTPAPER 70 Pro is now on sale in the U.S. through T-Mobile and Metro by T-Mobile for $199.99, with an unlocked option reported at $299.99.
- The phone’s 6.9-inch NXTPAPER display uses a matte finish and paper-like viewing modes that aim to cut glare and ease eye strain.
- TCL says the screen reduces blue light at the hardware level to 3.41% with DC dimming to remove flicker, and reports cite TÜV and SGS certifications backing the claims.
- Core specs include a MediaTek Dimensity 7300 chip, a 120Hz IPS LCD, a 5,200 mAh battery with 33W charging, and TCL’s claim of up to seven days of reading in Max Ink mode.
- The value pitch comes with tradeoffs noted by reviewers, including no telephoto camera, older USB 2.0 speeds, a T-Mobile-only U.S. launch, and concerns about TCL’s Android update track record.
