TCL P80 series finally marries eye-friendly NXTPAPER tech with an AMOLED panel
TCL P80 Pro and P80 Ultra also serve triple rear cameras, a large battery with 45W fast charging, and a bright eye-friendly screen at a rather modest price tag.
TCL unveils the TCL P80 series smartphones, marking the first time the eye-friendly NXTPAPER technology has been integrated into an AMOLED panel. The three models - vanilla TCL P80, mid-tier TCL P80 Pro, and camera-focused TCL P80 Ultra - share similar core specifications, with the Pro and Ultra models featuring the upgraded OLED NXTPAPER display.
This display reduces glare and blue light exposure while offering vibrant colors and high contrast typical of OLED panels. Both the P80 Pro and Ultra are powered by MediaTek’s Dimensity 7400 Elite processor and come with up to 512GB of storage and a 5,800mAh battery supporting 45W fast charging. The standout feature of the TCL P80 Ultra is its optically stabilized 50-megapixel telephoto camera with folded-lens periscope optics and 3x optical zoom.
The build quality is robust, boasting IP68 dust and water resistance, and MIL-STD-810H drop protection. The phones also retain the physical NXTPAPER Key for switching between paper-like display mode and Max Ink Mode. However, the RAM capacity is capped at 8GB for both models. The TCL P80 Ultra is priced at €549 ($640), while the P80 Pro is available for €429 ($500).
The exact launch date in the US remains undisclosed. Meanwhile, Belkin showcased two new UltraCharge Pro power banks at IFA 2026, featuring a semi-solid-state BoostSolid Cell battery design with longer lifespan, slimmer profiles, and enhanced safety compared to traditional liquid-cell power banks.
