"Like other recent Nxtpaper phones, the key selling point is a dedicated button that activates Max Ink Mode, which switches the matte display to a monochromatic mode that looks a lot like E Ink and is easier on the eyes for reading. The appeal to parents will be an extra way to manage screentime: not just a binary on / off, but an in-between option that's better for kids' eyes and not particularly well-suited to playing Fortnite. It extends the device's battery life, too."
"One immediate downside is that this is a pretty big phone. With a 6.7-inch screen and the included case, this will be a bulky, heavy device that might be a little tricky for smaller hands. The phone includes a variety of parental controls powered by Google's Family Link, along with a "Digital Detox" mode to encourage healthy phone use. TCL has also created a range of cutesy characters called the AI Genius Squad, which look like they've been lifted from a slightly subpar Pixar movie."
TCL introduced the Nxtpaper 5G Junior, a kids-focused phone for Europe priced at £159/€249 with a protective case and no current US plans. The handset features a dedicated Max Ink Mode button that converts the matte display to a monochrome, E Ink-like mode for easier reading, reduced eye strain, and longer battery life. Google Family Link parental controls and a "Digital Detox" mode offer flexible screentime management, alongside AI Genius Squad characters. The phone has a 6.7-inch display, is bulky for small hands, 256GB storage, and dual rear cameras. TCL also launched the larger Nxtpaper 60 Ultra with Nxtpaper 4.0, a 7.2-inch display, triple rear cameras including a 50MP telephoto lens, optional stylus support, and European pricing from €449.
