The TCL 60 XE NXTPAPER 5G is a budget Android phone from TCL that stands out for one big reason: its paper-like display. It is built around TCL’s NXTPAPER screen tech, which cuts glare and is designed to reduce eye strain, and there’s now a deal on it at Amazon.
This phone has a 6.8-inch FHD+ display with a 120Hz refresh rate, 5G support, 128GB of storage, and a roughly 5,010mAh battery. One of its most useful features is the dedicated NXTPAPER key, which lets you quickly switch to reading-focused display modes. That gives the TCL 60 XE NXTPAPER 5G a different feel from most budget phones, especially for people who spend a lot of time reading articles, books, or long messages on their screen.
That display is really the main draw here. Recent coverage has pointed to the screen comfort, anti-reflective finish, and the unusual “phone plus e-reader” style experience as the big reasons this device stands out at this price. It is aimed at everyday phone use while placing extra emphasis on a screen that is easier on your eyes during longer sessions.
As for the deal, Amazon has dropped the TCL 60 XE NXTPAPER 5G to $199.99, down from its $249.99 recommended retail price. That is a $50 discount, or 20% off the RRP. For anyone who likes the idea of an affordable 5G phone with a display built for reading, this is a good time to pick one up.
