If you’ve been hunting for a budget-friendly smartphone that doesn’t punish your eyes after hours of screen time, TCL’s latest deal might be the most underrated one this Black Friday. The TCL 60 XE NXTPAPER 5G is now just $169.99 on Amazon, down from $249.99, a 32 percent discount running through December 1.

The 60 XE NXTPAPER 5G is the world’s first smartphone to feature TCL’s NXTPAPER display technology — the same paper-like, low-glare screen that’s won praise on the company’s tablets. By filtering up to 61 percent of blue light and cutting reflections to near zero, the display offers a smooth, matte-finish look that’s comfortable even during marathon messaging, gaming, or streaming sessions. The 6.8-inch FHD+ panel also supports a 120 Hz refresh rate, giving it the responsiveness and clarity usually reserved for pricier models.

Under the hood, the phone runs on the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 processor paired with 8 GB of RAM (+8 GB virtual) and 128 GB of storage, expandable up to 2 TB via microSD. It’s a surprisingly capable setup for multitasking, video playback, and casual gaming. TCL also equipped it with a 50 MP triple-camera system featuring motion focus and AI scene optimization, plus a 32 MP front camera for selfies that don’t need retouching.

The phone’s 5010 mAh battery supports 18 W fast charging and even offers 5W reverse charging, letting it double as a mini power bank when your earbuds or accessories run low. Add to that dual DTS-enhanced speakers, dual SIM + eSIM support, and NFC for contactless payments, and you’ve got one of the most complete sub-$200 phones on the market.

TCL’s Black Friday deal on the 60 XE NXTPAPER 5G is available now through Cyber Monday, but inventory is already moving fast. If you’re ready for a screen that’s actually easy on the eyes, this is the time to grab one. Buy now on Amazon.
