TCL NXTPAPER 70 Pro Debuts With Paper‑Like Screen and €339 February Launch

A U.S. release remains unconfirmed despite TCL’s plan for a broad rollout starting next month.

Overview

  • Hands-on reports confirm a 6.9-inch NXTPAPER 4.0 matte IPS LCD with FHD+ resolution, 120Hz refresh, full sRGB coverage, and TCL’s claims of up to 900 nits peak brightness.
  • The physical NXTPAPER Key switches between Color Paper, Ink Paper, and Max Ink modes, with TCL touting up to seven days of reading or 26 days of standby in the most frugal setting.
  • The phone runs Android 16 with TCL’s UI, includes AI features with Google Gemini support, and works with an optional T-Pen for handwriting input and off-screen memos.
  • Core specs include a MediaTek Dimensity 7300, 8GB RAM, up to 256GB or 512GB storage, a 5,200mAh battery with 33W charging, a 50MP rear camera, and a 32MP selfie camera.
  • TCL sets European pricing at €339 for the 256GB model with global availability slated for late February, and early impressions note the display can look washed out next to OLEDs.
