Unboxing the TCL 40 NxtPaper smartphone, rocking an 'ePaper' display which mimics a Kindle screen - making for easy reading and clear outdoor visibility. This hands-on TCL 40 NxtPaper review covers the camera tech, gaming, video streaming and other features. Note that this isn't the 5G model, which serves up entirely different specs!

That screen is a regular TFT-style phone panel, except that it has a multi-layer coating which creates the matte finish and filters blue light. The TCL 40 NxtPaper has many different display modes, to suit different scenarios. I certainly enjoyed reading books and manga, although movies look a little foggy, lacking in sharpness.

Also, the camera tech here on the TCL 40 NxtPaper is basic stuff - as you'd expect at this budget price point. Performance comes courtesy of a simple Mediatek Helio processor, but my gaming test was a success - Call of Duty plays well enough for me to actually win a game!

Battery life is good too, although don't expect the TCL 40 NxtPaper to last weeks like a Kindle. A full day or maybe even a weekend of use between charging is more like it.
