For a tablet costing €249 (around $270/£220), the TCL NXTPAPER 11 does its bit to look pretty premium. Its casing is made from lightweight aluminum, available in a choice of Dark Grey and Digital Lavender (more like silver). It has a slim, flat-edged design, a bit like we’ve seen from Apple in recent iPad iterations.
It’s not quite as thin as an iPad though, measuring 6.9mm thick in comparison with the iPad Pro 11 at 5.9mm. Whether you’ll be able to notice this in use – particularly when they weigh about the same (with TCL’s 462g to the iPad Pro 11’s 466g) – we’ll have to wait and see. We’d say the iPad still takes it on a premium feel though, but then the price tag is much higher.
Display
11in 2K display (2000 x 1000)
NXPAPER 2.0 technology
Up to 500 nits
The TCL NXTPAPER 11 has an 11in 2K (2000 x 1000) LCD with a 213-pixel density. That might be on the low side compared with something like the OnePlus Pad or Samsung’s range of tablets, but this doesn’t feel like a tablet you’d be looking at if video watching and gaming were your prime focus.
Hardware, software, and features
MediaTek Helio P60T octa-core processor
128GB storage, 4GB RAM
Android 13
8000mAh battery
8MP camera main camera, 8MP wide-angle selfie camera
The NXTPAPER 11 uses the MediaTek Helio P60T octa-core processor, alongside 4GB RAM and 128GB of storage. We didn’t get long enough with the tablet to get a true idea of how that all works together, but in our time with it, everything ran smoothly and loaded quickly.
Verdict
The TCL NXTPAPER 11 is a budget tablet that’s doing its bit to stand out in what can be a marketplace of lookalikes and same-old same-old. You do lose out on a better chipset that you’ll see at higher price points, and nice-to-haves like wireless charging, but it’s an attractive-looking tablet with a pretty intriguing USP.
The NXTPAPER 2.0 technology does look lovely, and feels good too, with stylus compatibility that extends its functionality. It may not be the very best for watching videos, from an out-and-out performance perspective, but if you’re looking for a device that can double up as a tablet for work and an eye-friendly reading device, the TCL NXTPAPER 11 could well be worth a look.
