At CES 2026, TCL added the NxtPaper 70 Pro to its lineup of smartphones. The gadget adds a special NxtPaper key for fast screen mode switching, building on TCL’s paper-like display technology. Additionally, the phone introduces the newest NxtPaper 4.0 display technology.
This means that with a single button click, you can have both a fast and snappy standard smartphone screen and a paper-like reading experience.

Users may effortlessly choose between Color Paper, Ink Paper, and Max Ink display modes thanks to the device’s built-in NxtPaper key.
AI-powered handwriting input, off-screen notes, and AI-generated notebook covers are all made possible by the phone’s support for the T-Pen stylus. Nebula Gold and Stellar Blue are the two colors offered for the TCL NxtPaper 70 Pro.
