NXTPAPER 70 Pro at a glance
8/10GetLow rating
Our take, in a number
Provisional · Specification-based
The matte 120Hz NXTPAPER display and reading modes give this phone a clear purpose, supported on paper by an OIS main camera and IP68 protection. Its large 6.9-inch, 208g body is the main practical compromise. This is a specification-based assessment; GetLow has not tested the display experience, camera quality or battery endurance.
Why this rating?
GetLow editorial assessment, . We weigh the published features, practical compromises, intended buyer and value proposition described in this guide. This is a qualitative judgement, not a calculated benchmark or customer average.
9–10: exceptional on paper; 8–8.5: a strong shortlist choice; 7–7.5: good for the right buyer; 5–6.5: substantial compromises; 1–4.5: difficult to recommend.
We have not hands-on tested this phone. Real-world speed, photo quality and battery endurance are not proven by this score. Basic and accessibility phones are judged for their intended use, not as flagship substitutes. For refurbished phones, the score describes the model, not the condition or battery of an individual unit. A score is not a rating of every contract: compare the current total cost separately.
Start with the size, camera and storage you need. The lowest monthly price alone does not tell you whether this is the right phone.
What to weigh up
Check the exact storage, colour and condition on the retailer page. Refurbished grades, battery policies and warranties vary.
Worth the upgrade?
Compare it with the phone you already own. Pay for a useful improvement, not just a newer model name.

Is the NXTPAPER 70 Pro worth buying?
On published specifications, the TCL NXTPAPER 70 Pro is an unusual but coherent large-screen phone: the matte reading modes are its defining feature, while the Dimensity 7300, 8GB physical RAM, 50MP OIS main camera, IP68 rating and 33W charging make the supporting hardware credible. Its 6.9-inch, 208g body and optional-accessory caveats are the main practical checks.
Best bits
Large FHD+ 120Hz NXTPAPER 4.0 display with dedicated reading modes
Dimensity 7300 with 8GB of physical RAM and 5G connectivity
50MP main camera with optical image stabilisation
5,200mAh battery, 33W charging and IP68 protection
Watch-outs
The 6.9-inch, 208g body will be too large for some buyers
16GB of the marketed 24GB memory figure is storage-backed expansion
T-Pen Magic and the stand case may require separate purchase
Front-camera specification is withheld because available retailer fields conflict

TCL NXTPAPER 70 Pro in 2026
This is a desk-based assessment of TCL UK's specifications and the exact archived UK retailer listing. GetLow has not handled, display-tested, camera-tested, benchmarked or battery-tested the phone; TCL's eye-care, latency and endurance figures remain manufacturer claims.

Build your own phone comparison
Select any three phones and compare them side by side
The TCL NXTPAPER 70 Pro is selected first. Change any selector to compare it with two other current phones from TCL, or with the wider market when fewer than three TCL models are available.
Every price card keeps monthly cost, upfront payment, total cost, data, contract length and condition attached to the same live listing. The specification table then shows the hardware differences that may justify paying more.
NXTPAPER display
The matte screen is the reason to shortlist it
The 6.9-inch FHD+ panel can refresh at up to 120Hz. Its dedicated key switches among Full Colour, Ink Paper, Colour Paper and Max Ink modes, letting the phone prioritise normal colour, paper-like reading or extended low-distraction use.
TCL cites zero flicker, blue-light filtering down to 3.41% and up to seven days of reading in Max Ink mode. Those are manufacturer and certification-based claims, not GetLow measurements. The meaningful buying question is whether the matte finish and reading modes justify carrying such a large handset.
Useful mid-range hardware, with RAM expansion kept in context
TCL pairs the MediaTek Dimensity 7300 with 8GB of physical RAM. Up to 16GB of storage can be assigned as RAM expansion, producing the advertised 24GB combined figure; that virtual allocation is not equivalent to 24GB of physical memory.
The official page advertises TCL AI Text Master, Google-powered photo editing, Gemini and Circle to Search. Availability, language support and resource limits apply, including a stated allowance for some AI reading functions, so these should not be treated as unlimited offline capabilities.
TCL specifies a 50MP main camera with 1.0-micrometre pixels and optical image stabilisation. OIS can help reduce handshake during longer exposures and video, but its presence does not by itself prove low-light quality, autofocus performance or colour accuracy.
We have not independently confirmed the front-camera specification; check the retailer's exact model before buying.
Strong capacity, but this is a genuinely large phone
The 5,200mAh battery supports 33W charging. TCL's Max Ink figures reach up to seven days of immersive reading and 26 days of standby under its test conditions; those numbers describe a specialised mode and should not be read as normal mixed-use endurance.
The exact archived UK retailer listing records a 169.4 x 80.1 x 8.0 mm body weighing 208g. Buyers who prefer one-handed use should treat those dimensions as seriously as the display benefits. IP68 offers stronger ingress protection than the K70 4G, but normal wear and warranty terms still matter.
Every current offer is listed as new. A low price is only good value when the condition, storage, warranty, returns terms and battery policy suit what you expect to receive.
Use total contract cost after any stated code as the first comparison, then check data and storage on the same basis. Availability can change as retailers update stock.
Confirm whether the selected listing is new or refurbished.
Check the exact storage and colour before leaving GetLow.
Read the warranty, returns and refurbished battery terms.
Compare the total contract cost rather than monthly price alone.
Who it suits
Is the TCL NXTPAPER 70 Pro right for you?
Buy the NXTPAPER 70 Pro if
You read extensively on a phone, prefer a matte anti-glare screen, want a very large FHD+ display and still expect capable mid-range hardware, OIS, IP68 and substantial storage.
Choose another phone if
You want a compact or light handset, prefer a conventional glossy display, need included stylus accessories or want camera and endurance conclusions backed by independent hands-on testing.

Which storage should you buy?

What is special about the NXTPAPER 70 Pro display?
It uses TCL's matte NXTPAPER 4.0 system with anti-glare treatment, circularly polarised light, hardware-level blue-light filtering and four modes selected with a dedicated key.
Does the NXTPAPER 70 Pro have 24GB of RAM?
It has 8GB of physical RAM and supports up to 16GB of storage-backed RAM expansion. The 24GB number is the combined marketing figure.
Is the T-Pen Magic included?
Do not assume so. TCL states that the T-Pen Magic and stand case may be sold separately, so check the exact retailer bundle.
What front camera does it have?
We have not independently confirmed the front-camera specification; check the retailer's exact model before buying.
How long does Max Ink mode last?
TCL claims up to seven days of immersive reading and 26 days standby under its own conditions. Those are specialised-mode claims, not GetLow mixed-use battery results.
The verdict
The NXTPAPER 70 Pro earns consideration when its display modes solve a real reading or glare problem for you. Its supporting specification is sound on paper, but the 6.9-inch, 208g format and potentially separate stylus accessories should be checked against the live total contract cost and exact retailer bundle.
