TCL, a Chinese multinational electronics company, has announced several new mobile, tablet, and connected devices at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2023, including three smartphones under the TCL 40 Series for the US market, TCL 40 XE 5G, TCL 40 X 5G, and TCL 40 XL, all of which aim to provide affordable 5G for everyone. TCL has also launched TCL NXTPAPER 11 and TCL TAB 11 globally.
The 40 XE 5G is the company’s most affordable 5G smartphone to date, offering HD+ with a 90 Hz refresh rate, and a MediaTek Dimensity 700 5G processor. It features a 5000mAh battery with Sleep Smart Charging that ensures the phone’s battery health is not affected during charging. The 40 X 5G, on the other hand, features a 50MP triple AI camera and an 8MP selfie camera, a 5000mAh battery, and a MediaTek Dimensity 700 5G processor. TCL’s 40 XL is another 4G smartphone with a 50MP AI Triple Camera and a lag-free Helio G37 octa-core processor, a 6.75-inch HD+ TCL NXTVISION display, and dual-speakers.
The company’s new NXTURBO display enhancing software, which increases GPU performance by 30% while reducing power consumption by up to 17%, powers both TCL 40 XE 5G and TCL 40 X 5G. It also ensures smooth scrolling and an excellent in-game experience. TCL NXTURBO will come to additional TCL smartphones later this year, including TCL 40 SE, which is available in Europe.
TCL NXTPAPER 2.0 is another product that boasts even brighter and more striking displays with the TCL NXTPAPER technology. TCL NXTPAPER 2.0’s automatic light sensor adjusts the colour temperature based on the environment and time, delivering an even more comfortable viewing and reading experience. TCL NXTPAPER 11 features a productivity punch with an 11-inch 2K display that uses AI Visual Boost to make colours bolder and more lifelike. It also includes an 8MP front camera and a 13MP rear camera.
