TCL 60 XE NXTPAPER 5G Specifications

At the heart of the phone is TCL’s NXTPAPER 3.0 display technology, a solution engineered to reduce harmful blue light, minimize glare, and closely mimic the appearance of real paper, all while retaining full color and sharpness. New to this device is the NXTPAPER Key, a physical button that instantly switches the display into Max Ink Mode. It transforms the 6.8-inch FHD+ 120Hz screen into an e-reader-like canvas, complete with muted notifications and a grayscale UI aimed at extended reading or focused work sessions.

TCL says the 60 XE’s adaptive screen can intelligently adjust brightness and color temperature to match your environment, whether you’re reading under harsh sunlight or winding down in bed with night mode on. It also ships with an Eye Care Assistant that gently nudges you to take breaks, while Night Light Mode kicks in during low-light conditions to protect your eyes.

Under the hood, the phone packs 8GB of RAM (plus 8GB virtual RAM) and 256GB of storage, ensuring plenty of headroom for multitasking and offline reading. The 5010mAh battery provides up to two days of regular use or up to a week in reading mode, according to TCL. You also get a 50MP AI-powered triple camera system and a 32MP selfie shooter that’s more than capable for everyday shots.

TCL is also leaning into AI-driven productivity, equipping the device with tools like Text Assistant for translation and summarization, Writing Assistant for message drafts and emails, and Voice Memo, which records and transcribes spoken conversations in real-time, a feature aimed squarely at students, professionals, and content creators.

Now available across carriers including Bell, Rogers, Virgin Plus, and more, the TCL 60 XE NXTPAPER 5G brings the brand’s uniquely eye-friendly screen tech to a wider North American audience. U.S. availability is slated for later this year.
