TCL Nxtpaper 11 Plus Review: A Flexible Matte Display for Reading, But Performance Lags

The $369.99 TCL Nxtpaper 11 Plus is an Android tablet aimed at reading and note-taking, highlighted by a special matte e-ink screen with three selectable modes plus an included stylus and stand case. After two months, the review praises how the e-ink mode reduces oversaturated colors and glare, and how the matte finish limits reflections outdoors. The trade-off is performance: the tablet can feel too sluggish for users who expect more than writing and reading. The review says saving $20 for the Lenovo Idea Tab Pro ($349) or choosing the 11th-generation Apple iPad ($349) is a better value, citing both as Editors’ Choice options. Build includes an aluminum back, but it lacks an IP rating.
