Should I buy it?

TCL NXTPAPER 70 Pro
CONSIDER
  • Current model — 8 months on the market
Great choice if these matter:
  • Value for Money
  • Daily Use
Watch out for:
  • One-Handed Use
  • Display is IPS LCD, not AMOLED — despite TCL showcasing a future NXTPAPER-on-AMOLED technology at MWC 2026, the shipping phone itself uses LCD, with correspondingly lower contrast and color depth.

Official Statement

What does TCL say about the product?

A summary of TCL's official product description.

Official TCL press release (Mitch Peterson, GM of TCL Mobile North America)

TCL positions the NXTPAPER 70 Pro as a smarter, more comfortable way to watch, read and create, without the flagship price tag.

TCL launched the NXTPAPER 70 Pro globally on February 2, 2026 following its January 2026 CES announcement, built around its NXTPAPER 4.0 paper-like display coating aimed at reducing eye strain, positioned for power users who spend hours on their phones daily.

Review
“This remains a great buy for serious on-the-go bookworms wanting an easy-to-read display at all times.”

Expert Reviews highlights the anti-glare NXTPAPER display as the phone's defining strength for heavy readers, without assigning a numeric score, while treating the mid-range chipset and LCD panel as reasonable trade-offs for the price.

Caution
Editorial Analysis

Strengths and points to consider

The Kacbu editors' assessment of the specifications the maker publishes. We do not test devices ourselves, so nothing here is a measured result. Anything taken from an independent review is shown with its publication and date in the Press section.

Strengths based on the specs
NXTPAPER 4.0 coating genuinely reduces glare and eye strain during long reading sessions, a real differentiator from standard glossy displays.
6.9-inch display is among the largest in this entire comparison, good for reading and media consumption.
IP68 rating is unusually complete durability for a budget-tier phone.
5200mAh battery comfortably covers a full day of typical use.
Things to consider
Display is IPS LCD, not AMOLED — despite TCL showcasing a future NXTPAPER-on-AMOLED technology at MWC 2026, the shipping phone itself uses LCD, with correspondingly lower contrast and color depth.
Dimensity 7300 is an entry-to-mid-range chipset, fine for browsing and reading but not for demanding games.
33W charging is slow next to most other phones in this comparison.
No formal scored review from GSMArena was found — only a hands-on preview and user opinions; the closest formal editorial review located carries no numeric score either.
Plastic build feels noticeably less premium than the glass-and-metal phones elsewhere in this comparison.

FAQ

The most common questions about this product

What the numbers on the spec sheet actually mean in day-to-day use.

Is the NXTPAPER display actually AMOLED?
No — despite TCL demonstrating a future NXTPAPER-on-AMOLED prototype at MWC 2026, the NXTPAPER 70 Pro that actually ships uses an IPS LCD panel with the special anti-glare coating on top. TCL says it reduces glare and eye strain, but it won't match AMOLED contrast or color depth.
Is this a good phone for gaming?
Not really its strength — the Dimensity 7300 handles light-to-moderate games fine, but it's an entry-to-mid-range chipset that will struggle with demanding titles compared to the flagship chipsets in most other phones in this comparison. This phone is built around reading and everyday use, not gaming performance.
Why does the price vary so much between sources?
TCL sells this phone through multiple channels — unlocked retail, carrier-exclusive deals (like a US T-Mobile/Metro variant), and different regional pricing — so the exact price you see depends heavily on where and how you buy it. Compare the specific offer you're looking at rather than assuming one number applies everywhere.
