Editorial report

TCL 50 XE NxtPaper technical sheet

The TCL 50 XE NxtPaper suits buyers looking for a lightweight 5G phone, provided they can accept less RAM and storage than most phones of its time offer. At 185 g, it weighs less than most phones launched around the same time, making low weight its clearest advantage.

Its 6.56-inch IPS LCD uses NxtPaper technology and has a 90 Hz refresh rate. Both the 269 ppi pixel density and 90 Hz refresh rate are lower than those of most phones of its time. The MediaTek Dimensity 6100+ comes with 4 GB of RAM; overall, the hardware and performance stand worse than most phones from the same period. Its 128 GB of storage is also less than most offer, though the storage is expandable.

The 50 MP rear main camera is joined by a 5 MP ultrawide camera, and the cameras are typical for its time. The 5,010 mAh battery has typical capacity, but 18 W charging is slower than on most phones of its time. Connectivity includes 5G, NFC, dual SIM and a 3.5 mm audio jack, with connectivity overall typical for the period. With a NeoScore of 5.0, the TCL 50 XE NxtPaper is best suited to buyers who prioritize a lighter phone and 5G while accepting modest memory and slower charging.
