Editorial report

TCL 50 XL NxtPaper technical sheet

The TCL 50 XL NxtPaper suits anyone looking for a large display with NxtPaper technology and an ultrawide camera. Its main trade-off is peak brightness: 550 nits is lower than on most phones launched around the same time. The 6.78-inch display has 1080 × 2460 px resolution and a 120 Hz refresh rate; those specifications are typical for phones of its time.

Overall performance is typical, but this configuration has 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage, less than most phones launched around the same time. Storage is expandable. The 50 MP main camera uses a 1/2.76-inch sensor, smaller than that of most phones of its time; the camera setup is typical overall and also includes a 5 MP ultrawide and a 2 MP macro camera. Video recording reaches 1080p at 30 fps.

The 5,010 mAh battery has typical capacity, while 18 W charging is slower than on most phones launched around the same time. Connectivity is typical overall and includes 5G, NFC, Bluetooth 5.3, dual Nano-SIM and a 3.5 mm audio jack. Android 14 and stereo speakers round out the features. With a NeoScore of 5.2 and a typical overall standing, this phone makes sense for people who prioritize NxtPaper, a 120 Hz display and camera versatility, and are willing to accept lower brightness, less memory and slower charging.
