TCL aims to strike a balance with its unique NXTPAPER technology. It’s not an E Ink display the likes of which you see on eReaders, nor is it the same as standard OLED or LCD panels we’ve come to know on mobile devices. While the underlying screen is an LCD, TCL’s take on it is one of the more unique attempts to change up what a display can be.
Its matte finish is specifically designed to mimic paper, and while initially designed to help reduce eye strain from exposure to blue light, its distinctive look makes for an interesting alternative. With the NXTPAPER 11 Plus tablet standing out as TCL’s signature device under its NXTPAPER lineup in 2025, the concept behind this tech is showing signs of maturity.
