TCL NXTPAPER 70 Pro offers paper-like 120Hz display for readers and casual gamers

TCL's NXTPAPER 70 Pro provides a more affordable and slightly more conventional alternative to the company's oversized 60 Ultra. The phone uses a 6.9-inch NXTPAPER 4.0 display with a 120Hz refresh rate and dedicated viewing modes intended to reduce glare and make long reading sessions more comfortable. A physical NXTPAPER key lets users switch quickly between display modes without digging through software menus.

MediaTek's Dimensity 7300 handles processing, paired with 8GB of RAM and a 5,200mAh battery supporting 33W charging. The 50MP main camera includes optical stabilisation, while expandable storage makes the phone useful for users carrying large media or ebook collections. Performance is sufficient for casual and mainstream games, though players looking for sustained flagship frame rates will find faster processors elsewhere. The NXTPAPER 70 Pro is more interesting as an example of smartphone differentiation.

Instead of competing primarily on AI functions or camera resolution, TCL is making the screen experience itself the central selling point. That approach may appeal to users who spend hours reading websites, comics or books on their phones. A 120Hz refresh rate also means the display-focused design does not require sacrificing smooth everyday navigation.
