TCL has unveiled two new midrange **Nxtpaper phones**, the **TCL 50 Pro Nxtpaper 5G** and **TCL 50 Nxtpaper 5G**, featuring a unique **“Max Ink Mode.”** This mode is designed to provide a monochrome, e-ink-like display, making it ideal for reading. The **Nxtpaper key** is a two-stage slider that engages this mode, silences notifications, and extends battery life, reportedly allowing up to seven days of reading.
Both phones sport a **6.8-inch 1080p display** with up to **120Hz refresh rate**, a **108MP main camera**, and a **5,010mAh battery**. The **Pro model** includes a 32MP selfie camera, 512GB storage, and optional accessories like a flip case and stylus, priced at **€299**. The non-Pro version has an 8MP selfie camera, 256GB storage, and costs **€229**.
These models will first launch in Europe and Latin America, with hopes for a US release.
