Editorial report
TCL 40 NxtPaper 5G technical sheet
The TCL 40 NxtPaper 5G suits buyers looking for an Android phone with 5G, expandable storage and dual SIM. Its display is a key compromise: 90 Hz, 267 ppi and 500 nits are all below what most phones launched around the same time offer. The screen measures 6.6″ diagonally, with a resolution of 720 × 1612 px.
A MediaTek Dimensity 6020 works with 6 GB of RAM and 256 GB of UFS 2.2 storage. Performance is typical for phones of its time, while its RAM capacity is lower than most. The 50 MP camera has a typical resolution, but its 1/2.76″ sensor is smaller than those in most phones of its time. There is also a 2 MP macro camera, and video recording reaches 1080p at 30 fps. The 5000 mAh battery has typical capacity; its 15 W fast charging is slower than most, and the battery overall is weaker than most phones launched around the same time.
Connectivity is typical and includes 5G, NFC, dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.1 and a 3.5 mm audio jack. Android 13 completes the package. With a NeoScore of 5.0, this TCL is a fit for buyers who prioritize 5G, dual SIM and expandable storage, and can accept a display and charging setup that trail most phones of its time.
