TCL 40 NXTPaper Review - A sight for sore eyes

[@dudagladuos]

Definitely a great review. The best one for this phone that I've seen. I was wondering why is this phone so cheap and you were able to give very good insights about. Greetings from Brazil

[@massimo200x]

It Is cheap because Is young, It Is good but has problems. For instance: you are using gmaps in horizzontal mode and you lose the effectiveness of the buttons. Simply they do not work. Its a serious gap.

​@@massimo200x my Samsung A23 5G does the same so it is not a tcl problem

[@massimo200x]

I bought it but is poor in nit, 450 nit are too low. Screen In sun is poorly visible.

Great phone for the price and also a Great review! I will be picking one up very soon!

[@ika5666]

Is it as good under direct sun light as e-ink displays? (PS- got the answer at 7th minute, thank you).

[@davoodgh6339]

How is the build quality of this phone? Does it have a sense of quality and charm when you hold it?

[@BenchHouse]

Well, it won't resemble a high end phone, even though the build quality is very good.

[@labbertubes]

what I want to know is how the screen performs in "reader mode", in full sunlight. What I would like is a transreflective screen that works in momochrome in any lighting conditions - is this it?

[@BenchHouse]

Unfortunately no, it does not do what transflective screens do, and especially is not a good alternative in direct sunlight

[@abdullahfaisal6971]

This phone display is visible in the direct sunight?
(On daily purpose use)
How is the performance?
(Specially in multi task)

[@massimo200x]

Great Excellent Review

[@staffan144]

It is not e-ink but something else, right?

[@BenchHouse]

Yes, it's not an e-ink, but more of an augmented IPS panel with some extra layers.

[@giovannalavieri2021]

Where can i buy this case? I couldn't find it anywhere, not even in Amazon

[@BenchHouse]

We received it with the phone, in it's own retail package, so it should be available. Might vary on the market and local distributors.

[@Hild1]

Does it work with Samsung's S-Pen? (There are no T- Pens available in my country).

[@BenchHouse]

It should work with any capacitive compatible pen, minus the extra features.

[@Hild1]

@@BenchHouse Sure, but the T-Pen is an active stylus, so S-Pen would have been an alternative if it works. But it's not compatible, I've triey it out.

Good review ! 👍

[@fonzitheman]

This phone or TCL50 SE?

[@n0nchalant39]

Very similar specs minus the ram and the screen type. TCL 40 NXTPAPER is pretty much a TCL 50 SE with matte display.
Since I have the 40 NXTPAPER, I'd say buy this one or look for any other options (not 50 SE) because I think the screen is the only good feature of this phone.

[@raymondsmith5088]

AWESOME PHONE ALL PHONES SHOULD BE MADE LIKE THIS IRL FRFR IT IS RIDICULOUS THAT THEY AREN'T ESPECIALLY WHAT THIS COMES WITH AND ACTUALLY DOES FOR THE AMAZING AMD SURPRISING PRICE POINT

[@SimpleEnglishLearn]

I've bought it. No big difference... Eyes are still tired

[@piotrd.9848]

Thanks a lot. So it works like old gameboy color screen rather than eink screen. So I won't buy it. It will strain my eyes too... Useless

[@SimpleEnglishLearn]

@@piotrd.9848 yeah I agree and I think the best phones for eyes are old Vivo. Till 2020.
