Eye-friendly NXTPAPER or an OLED screen? TCL’s new US-bound phones don’t force you to choose

TCL has unveiled the P80 series of smartphones for the US market, featuring NXTPAPER OLED displays in the TCL 80 Pro and Ultra models. The Ultra model also boasts a 50MP 3x camera. Priced starting at around $404, users who opt for models with the NXTPAPER display will need to spend a minimum of $496. TCL has been producing phones with this glare-free technology for some time, offering a superior viewing experience compared to typical Android smartphones.

The P80 Ultra and Pro share common features, including a 6.83-inch OLED NXTPAPER display. This display offers a resolution of 1.5K, a refresh rate of 120Hz, and a peak brightness of 3,200 nits. TCL claims that these are the first phones to feature NXTPAPER paired with an OLED screen as opposed to an LCD panel. The NXTPAPER technology is designed to reduce glare and reflections, providing a more comfortable viewing experience.

A unique feature of the NXTPAPER display is the NXTPAPER button, which activates a Max Ink Mode. In this mode, the screen transforms into a monochrome display, similar to an E-Ink panel. According to TCL, users can enjoy up to seven days of reading in this mode, providing an extended, comfortable experience.
