    TCL wouldn't be so bad if they seeded regular updates but they don't it's a shame as they are a big company.

              Can't see why these complaints. Have you seen the release price for the most expensive one (169$)? These are super budget phones that aren't aimed at tech enthusiasts for sure. If you need no more than a phone that does Whatsapp, this is it. The SE variant seems good enough for decent media consumption with the large screen and stereo speakers.

                here is quotation form TCL NxtPaper 10s review
                "the panel is TUV certified for low blue-light emissions. TCL actually applied a rather heavy-handed matte coating to the display, which they claim reduces blue light emissions by over 50% compared to regular glossy screen devices"

                  What in the world is 403? It's literally a 2014 budget phone

                    This is 2023 already and people at TCL still tolerates 480p display on a phone? While I'm not a resolution maniac, and I do think even 720p is still usable and tolerable on sub-$200 phones, there should be no tolerance for sub-HD screen going onwards.

                          In each lower right hand corner of each picture it says " Inspire Greatness "...

                          Wonder what that relates to as it definitely doesn't relate to this e-waste.

                            Phones aside, what makes that tablet so incredibly overpriced?

                              TCL NxtPaper 12 Pro is overpriced. Nobody knows the TCL brand other than their TVs... C'mon TCL, do better.

                                Not gomna lie that 403 design better because you know, no notch or punch hole 🤷🏻‍♂️

                                  what a waste of natural resources.

                                      Low ends should not even have online events, just announce on own website and tell media about it.
