TL;DR TCL has announced the P80 series of smartphones.
The TCL 80 Pro and Ultra both have NXTPAPER OLED screens, while the Ultra also has a 50MP 3x camera.
The phones start at ~$404, but you’ll need to spend at least ~$496 if you want a model with NXTPAPER.
TCL has been producing NXTPAPER phones for a while now, offering a glare-free display compared to typical Android smartphones. Now, the company has announced the TCL P80 series at IFA 2026.
The P80 Ultra and P80 Pro have plenty of features in common. For one, there’s the 6.83-inch OLED NXTPAPER display (1.5K, 120Hz, 3,200 nits peak brightness). TCL says these are the first phones to feature NXTPAPER paired with an OLED screen instead of an LCD panel. The NXTPAPER tech reduces glare and reflections for a more pleasant viewing experience. There’s also a NXTPAPER button that activates a Max Ink Mode. This mode turns your screen into a monochrome display, akin to an E-Ink panel. In fact, TCL claims up to seven days of reading in this mode.
Other notable shared features include a MediaTek Dimensity 7400 Elite processor, 8GB of RAM, 256GB or 512GB of storage, a 5,800mAh battery, and 45W wired charging.
