Although Alcatel now operates independently, the brand retains deep connections to TCL’s longstanding expertise in mobile and display technologies. The V3 Ultra 5G, previewed by Madhav Sheth, Founder of Alcatel India and an executive at HTech, features a triple rear camera housed in a circular module, a centrally positioned punch-hole display, and stylus support. A sketch on the retail box reveals a design reminiscent of the TCL 50 Pro NxtPaper, with similar side button placements that hint at the presence of a NxtPaper-style key.

The device is expected to be developed and marketed by NxtCell, a local Indian company. Production will be managed by Padget Electronics, a subsidiary of Dixon Technologies, further reinforcing the phone’s local manufacturing credentials. The retail packaging displays the phrase “Born in France, now in India,” underscoring the blend of global design heritage with domestic production.

Alcatel India has teased a new display technology said to be easy on the eyes, along with adaptive screen modes like Read, Watch, Scroll, and Create. These features suggest similarities with TCL’s NXTPAPER technology, which is designed to reduce eye strain without compromising visual clarity.

While detailed specifications of the V3 Ultra 5G remain under wraps, the device is expected to spearhead Alcatel’s new product lineup in India. Its launch represents a broader effort to bring advanced display technologies and user-focused features to a wider, value-conscious audience in the country.

In related news, the TCL 50 XL NXTPAPER 5G is now available on Verizon and Total Wireless for just $99, while TCL has also introduced its 2025 Mini LED TVs in South Africa featuring HVA panels, Halo Control technology, and 144Hz refresh rate.
