TCL 40 NXTPAPER MIDNIGHT BLUE 256GB

Bought this as a replacement for my daughter after she damaged her phone screen.I was nervous due to not really knowing the brand and feared her friends might react to the lesser known brand, especially if the device under-performed.I was pleasantly surprised with it's look and functionality. Very easy to set up. We followed the setup guide, which also guided us through swapping over her data from her iPhone. This was most important to her as she feared losing her photos and videos. All copied over without a hitch.Functionally very similar to other, better known branded Android devices. The camera, 50MP is impressive, with options to reduce this resolution to beat suit your needs.The phone's screen was a surprise to me. Matt finish but offers crisp vibrant images as well as clear videos. There are a few setting options to reduce its vibrant looks but I'd be surprised if many will choose that option.Battery lasts over a day without charge which I think is good considering the amount of social media and videos watched on it.I'd not hesitate to buy this phone again and I would consider this brand on the future. It certainly can mix it with the better known brands.

This comes with a matte screen rather than a gloss one which is kinder on the eyes.The price is amazing.Great sound, my husband's previous phone had appalling sound quality he couldn't hear the phone calls, this has no such issue.The phone was on a list of four recommended by my Techie son, who helps older people of an immediate neighbour find TV's, Phones, Laptops and helps set them up. This was an excellent choice, I really do not understand why people buy i Phones, when you can pay this price, get a great camera, great sound, screen that is kind on the eyes and a battery that doesn't fail in a year or two.More than happy to recommend this, if it made the cut on my son's list for my husband if you want a great quality phone at an amazing price then go for this. Android phone but without the hefty price!

My second TCL. Seems a good brand, reasonable prices. Non-glossy, optionally e-reader-like screen is novel and not problematic unless you like glossiness. Phone functions well in all respects; screen occasionally freezes but this might be a connectivity issue. I think I can recommend, unless you value 5G connectivity. Cases readily available on Amazon, pity a cheap silicon one was not bundled. Supplied with a fast charger and cable, much more effective than my collection of older chargers.

My Samsung S21 nearly 4 years old and battery is dire now costing £100 to replace. Been looking at TCL and this was on offer for £130. I am really pleased with it and such a nice phone does everything £600 phone does. Let's see how battery lasts. Very impressed. 2 months in I am very impressed with the phone battery life is good. I cannot fault it. Not missing 5G, not even sure if I ever benefited from it. Very happy

The screen looks great indoors, no annoying reflections. Once the light is very bright (outdoor in the sun) the entire screen becomes low intensity glare, making it unreadable.The ink mode gimmick is not that useful, the screen behaves the same, but the operative system changes the colors to make it look more like the color palette of an eink reader: less saturated colors, more white backgrounds.The phone itself is a bit lacking in performance.

Great phone brilliant camera and Graphics and fast for a budget phone. Amazing value for money but that comes at a cost. Battery drains fairly quickly and also have a couple dead pixels on the screen which are easily visible and hard to ignore if looking at a dark picture/video/website.

The phone is very flimsy and is not durable enough it has so many things wrong with it that if I could get my money back I would. The screen is ok but temperamental sometimes and the Bluetooth disconnects most of the time. The only good thing is the battery lasts a whole day

Good quality and value for money
