TCL just unveiled its latest tablet — the Note A1 NXTPAPER. The e-note tablet delivers a distraction-free workspace powered by AI so you can focus more on taking notes and less on organizing them.
Launching on Kickstarter first, the TCL Note A1 NXTPAPER is a tablet resembling the likes of ReMarkable’s Paper Pro or the Kindle Scribe. It won’t be the device for streaming or gaming, as it aims to keep you focused on note-taking or reading.
The TCL Note AI NXTPAPER comes with an 11.5-inch NXTPAPER Pure display, which delivers flicker-free visuals and paper-like clarity that’s gentler on the eyes. TCL claims that the e-note tablet doesn’t ghost (leaving remnants of erased pen marks or text on a previous page). It features color displays with a 16.7 million color range.

Where the tablet goes above and beyond is with its AI productivity tools. Wish your handwriting were neater? It’ll “beautify” it. Plus, it can convert handwriting to text, do real-time transcription and translation with its included eight microphones.
The TCL Note AI NXTPAPER launches in late February of 2026, retailing for $549. Early access will be available through Kickstarter.
