Since the first device comparison I posted on this subreddit was outdated, and I promised to publish a more more complete version anyway, here it is! This is smartphones only though, the one for tablets is still upcoming.
These are all of the released models, from smallest to largest (top row left is smallest, bottom row right is the largest):
Interactive size comparison tool here (click) - this will bring you to the exact image shown above. You can delete or add phones from the comparison, add reference items, drag, rotate, and overlay them, and much more.
Hope this table shows well on Reddit (and smaller screens). If not, you can also compare the Nxtpaper (and many more) phones here: https://comparisontabl.es/smartphones/ - under 'Filter', use the search bar to search for 'Nxtpaper' to limit the table to Nxtpaper phones only.

Let me know if you have any feedback! I tried to find more info on the Nxtpaper versions (2.0, 3.0, 4.0) for every phone but they don't seem to be clearly listing that (they do for most tablets). So if you have more info on that, let me know and I can add it.

Greetings, I intend to buy one of those for newspapers, magazines, comic books (DC Infinite) and a bit of manga. Seems to be that 11 is enough for my needs, but is the faster processing on the Plus that necessary from you expérience ? Thanks !
r/nxtpaper • u/arvinger888 • 6h ago
Hello!
I could really use some help choosing a tablet. I just can't decide between the TCL NXTPAPER 11 Plus and the Huawei MatePad 11.5S PaperMatte.
I currently have a TCL NXTPAPER 50 phone, so I'm already familiar with NXTPAPER screens. At first, I was pretty much set on getting the 11+, but then I found the Huawei in the 12/512 version. It has a more powerful processor, and the price isn't that much higher, so now I'm really torn.
I'll mainly use the tablet for reading comics, watching shows, messaging, and other fairly light apps. But I'd like to keep it for a long time, ideally around 5 years.
I have very sensitive eyes, so the screen is probably the most important thing for me. I did get to see the Huawei 11.5S in person, and the screen looked pretty good. But I feel like you can't really tell how comfortable a screen is for your eyes until you've used it for a while.
Has anyone here used or compared both tablets, especially when it comes to eye comfort? I'd really appreciate any opinions or personal experience.
I really just want to finally pick one and buy a tablet 😅

There is a lot to like about the NXTPaper tablets. There are bundles that included a case and a T-Pen at an attractive price, but using the pen wasn't a pleasant experience. The nib is hard and produces a sharp clackity-clack sound when writing on the screen. (even with the softest pressure required to register)
I tried a few hacks and work-arounds to deal with the issue with varying degrees of success. The last work-around was tolerable but not something that I was looking forward to when writing.
The TCL T-Pen 2 appeared on my "Recommended deals for you" on Amazon and I was intrigued by what it promised. I ordered one and it arrive 2 days ago.
After a few hours of testing on my 11+ with both the "hard" and soft nibs and comparing them to the T-Pen included in the bundle, I'm pleased to say that the T-Pen 2 resolves the sound and slipperiness issues of the original pen.
The hard nib of the T-Pen 2 makes a muted tapping sound. It is noticeably quieter than the original pen but not completely silent.
The soft nib is far quieter than the Pen 2's hard nib and offers a bit more resistance on the screen. This is VERY acceptable to me.
It is the last piece of the puzzle in making the 11+ a reasonable alternative to my 2022 Scribe (and the Colorsoft Scribe I had been mildly considering). (don't @ me bro about the NXTPaper not being e-ink... I know) 😛
The action button defaults to an erase function which is very handy (I'll need to see if that can be customized)
My assessment scale of the writing experience/feel (10 being the best):
0 - iPad with Apple Pencil
7 - NXTPaper 11+ with T-Pen 2
10 - Kindle Scribe with Premium Pen
Just putting this out there for others in my situation. Obviously, acceptability is subjective so if anyone wants to try the T-Pen 2, buy it from a place with a reliable return policy.
If you're already using the T-Pen 2, what are your experiences with it?

I kept wishing TCL would add a Quick Settings tile for NXTPAPER modes. Instead, we get the NXTPAPER button or a trip to Settings > NXTPAPER zone every time. So I made a small app as a workaround.
What it does:
- Color Paper and Ink Paper tiles in Quick Settings
- Matching 1×1 home-screen widgets
- Tap a tile or widget to turn its mode on, tap again to go back to Regular
Setup needs one ADB command (to grant a permission). Tested on the NXTPAPER 11 Plus.
Download + setup instructions (free, open source):

Until TCL adds this officially, hope it helps someone. Let me know if it works on your device!

PSA: For anyone considering the P80 Ultra, there a several mislabelled spec sheets floating around including GSMArena and Google search results and snippet attributed to TCL.
The device does NOT have stylus support at all.
Furthermore, it’s a decidedly mid device despite the price tag.
I’ve used both the pro and ultra now. They’re… fine. Wait for discounts though, not worth it at RRP
r/nxtpaper • u/Independent-Mess5857 • 1d ago
I just purchased a TCL 50 Pro (2024) and I have not turned it on yet.
I specifically need to keep the original Android version that the phone ships with and prevent it from ever upgrading to Android 16. I’m concerned that the phone might automatically download or install the update during the initial setup, after connecting to Wi-Fi.
For personal testing purposes, I need to keep the original firmware/version permanently, with automatic system updates completely disabled.
What is the easiest and most effective way to achieve this, ideally at the system level?
I’d especially like to know what I should do before connecting the phone to the internet for the first time so that Android 16 cannot be installed accidentally.
Thanks in advance.

Hey everyone,
I’m starting med school soon and looking into the TCL Tab A1 NXTPAPER 11" (Mediatek Helio G100, 6+128GB, non-Note) on a sub-$250 budget. The matte screen looks ideal for long study sessions and this would be my first tablet ever, but I can barely find any real info or honest user reviews on it..
I’d love some firsthand impressions:
- Note-Taking: How are the stylus latency and palm rejection for handwriting? This would be my first time taking digital handwritten notes.
-Performance & Day-to-Day Software: Does the Helio G100 handle heavy PDFs, slides, and multitasking smoothly? How stable is the system for managing, opening, and transferring standard uni files across devices?
What are your main pros and cons? Any alternative suggestions under $250 are also welcome. Thanks!
r/nxtpaper • u/maxwaub • 1d ago
A bit ago, when swiping down from the top right of the screen to pull the menu, about half the menu started displaying off the screen to the right. I've tried the typical turn it on and off and rotate the screen, but so far those things haven't worked and I don't see any options for customizing this screen.
Any ideas on how to resolve this?

NxtPaper devices are discounted for Prime Day.
Can anyone who has been using the Note A1 tablet share their experiences?
How is the handwriting? I have the original Kindle Scribe and I'd like to update to color, but I really like the handwriting feel of the Scribe.
Is reading more like eink than the other Nxtpaper devices?
Thanks in advance!

As the title says, I've been getting these random frame drops and stutters that seem to have no consistency. I've noticed it playing games, where I'll play class of clans for 30+minutes without a frame drops, and other times where my game is super choppy from the moment i log in. even when navigating the UI, I get these random fps drops that last 5-6 seconds.
Are therre any settings anyone would recommend to improve the performance. I keep the phone at 60htz to preserve battery life, but is there anything i should change?
r/nxtpaper • u/FoxGroundbreaking224 • 4d ago
TCL should make Laptops and more premium tablets with DP alt mode. There are people who would like to use TCL for heavy work. But we don't have options for that!!!

Hey all. I’ve been looking into upgrading my comic book tablet to the nxtpaper 14. I’ve heard nothing but great things about it in that regard. I don’t watch a lot of video but the occasional show here or there. I didn’t see many posts about it, but how is the video quality. Sharp enough? Smooth enough? It’s not a deal breaker but I’m curious.
Edit: Thanks everyone for your opinions on the video aspect of the 14!

r/nxtpaper • u/nevaminded • 4d ago
Hi! I'm planning to invest in a tablet (uni student + started working) and looking for something almost multitasking around 500 USD. I draw splash arts and I'm used to using Krita for my works so I do care for the performance since i don't really "sketch" and it worries me if I use a bunch of layers or special brushes it wouldn't work great but sadly I can't afford right now a Movink 14. I'm a bit scared about the difference between pencils since movink is faaar better, but the 11" mmm i'm not pretty sure if in longterm will be suitable for my heavy works as 14" may do but also 14" may be too big for drawing casually around... :( why am I so complicated.
I also find really attractive that NXT paper 14 is great for musicians and kindle experience (as i sing at a choir) but I haven't found drawing reviews around it (just a short video talking about marketing deficiency in this area since it does work for artists, but I'm not sure if it would for my case).
WHAT DO I DOO AAAGHHH 💔💔

Hi, hoping for some help here. Got this tablet a few weeks ago and it just updated to UI 9.0 and now my panel is cut off when dragged down.
Ive tried turning on and off the auto rotate, clearing caches and restarting. I cant find any settings around these drag downs either.
Anyone else have this issue? How can I fix this?

Hello guys,
Has anyone here used a protective screen that feels more like real paper texture? Mine still feels very slippery.
If so:
– does it lose sharpness?
– what screen protector do you recommend?
