TCL 40 NxtPaper 5G

The TCL 40 NxtPaper 5G brings something a little different to the mid-2020s smartphone scene. Released in September 2023, this device is just a year old but already feels like it’s found its niche, thanks to TCL’s unique NxtPaper display technology. While it won’t challenge the flashiest flagships, it’s a clever option for those craving a more eye-friendly experience without giving up 5G connectivity.

The TCL 40 NxtPaper 5G is great for book lovers, students, and anyone who spends long hours reading, scrolling, or streaming but wants less eye strain than your average phone. Its NxtPaper screen offers a matte, paper-like effect that’s easier on the eyes—finally, a digital escape from glare and reflection. Compared to typical LCD displays in this price segment, TCL’s approach will stand out for e-book fans and note-takers, though you won’t get the richer colours of OLED panels you’ll find on pricier models.
