Overview
- TCL introduced the P80 trio that includes the P80 Ultra, P80 Pro, and a vanilla P80, with the Ultra and Pro the first phones to use an AMOLED‑based NxtPaper display.
- The P80 Ultra features a 6.83‑inch 1.5K 120Hz NxtPaper AMOLED panel rated at up to 3,200 nits and 100% DCI‑P3 color coverage for bright, color‑accurate viewing.
- All P80 models use a MediaTek Dimensity 7400 Elite platform, 8GB of RAM, large batteries (the Ultra/Pro use 5,800mAh), and 45W wired charging to balance performance and long runtime.
- NxtPaper hardware combines a physical slider that activates Max Ink mode, a homogenizing film and circular polarization to reduce eye strain and glare, and AI reading features that turn e‑books into audio or podcast‑style playback.
- TCL is positioning the series as a value play in Europe with the P80 Ultra starting at €550 and tiered differences by camera (Ultra adds a 3x periscope), base storage, and OS upgrade guarantees (Ultra: four OS updates; Pro/P80: three; all: seven years of security patches).
