Yes but this is about the nxtpaper 11 and I was seeing if anyone else with the nxtpaper 11 encountered this drm issue. Didn’t seem complaint when there were 3 pages about Microsoft

The tip of your pen completely fixed by sides and top? Any gap, moving?

I returned the pen and ordered a new one.
I hope I don't have any other problems.

I think there is no edit message button in this forum, or it may be temporary, I don't know. Sorry for the mess. There will be a double message.

Nowhere. I wish I could find one with anti-reflective properties.
Maybe I can order this one. I'm undecided. In a way, this is actually a gamble for me.

I have its original flip case.
And also,
I've requested information about the tablet's screen. I stated that I wanted to know whether chemically strengthened glass was used on the tablet's screen... but I have not received any response yet.

I think that's pointless and will just degrade the matt aspect hugely.

Is anyone aware of any specific owner groups like Facebook/reddit for the NXTPAPER devices other than this form? Is it too of a niche device?

Netflix issue will be an android or Netflix issue. I don't use any streaming subs and any issues I ever had on any Android were certain apps. The eink Android is the worst, because it's non-standard in a different way to Oppo, Sony, Huawei, TCL etc customisations.

Anyone seen these 2 models searching Nxtpaper 11 on TCL Amazon UK?

Notable differences:
1. Different ASIN
2. Different date first available. 1 Jan. 2023 vs 17 April 2024

The "TCL NXTPAPER 11 Wi-Fi Tablet 11 Inch 2K NXTVISION, Android 13, 4GB RAM, 128GB Memory, 8000mAh Battery, Dark Gray" can be found across EU Amazon and is the tablet of this thread.

The "TCL Tab 11 NXTPAPER" currently found only on Amazon UK. It uses the same stock images as Tab 11 (not Nxtpaper display) sold on Amazon.co.jp. This is a cheaper model but defeats the purpose of implementing Nxtpaper technology with only Nxtvision software without Nxtpaper hardware.

Not sure if it's possible to know if there are any differences until someone buys the TCL Tab 11 NXTPAPER.

Not totally true. The screensaver image is different and there's addition of Nxtpaper logo on the TCL Tab 11 NXTPAPER stock images.

Model TB00168
£188.99
Product Dimensions ‏ : ‎ 10 x 5 x 1.27 cm; 462 g [Can't be correct, the advert has 6.9mm thick, which is correct]
ASIN B0C3MG289R
10.9″ screen diagonal.


https://www.amazon.co.uk/TCL-Tab-11-...dp/B0D1YBWMPR/
Model: ???
£158.74
Product Dimensions ‎25.9 x 16.3 x 2.69 cm; 770 g [Thickness & weight can't be right]
ASIN B0D1YBWMPR


We have bought two from this page
https://www.amazon.de/-/en/gp/product/B0C3MG289R/
Mysteriously they no longer deliver to here (Ireland), but it could be something broken on Amazon.
Product Dimensions ‎10 x 5 x 1.27 cm; 462 g [Seems strange?]
Model ‎TB00168
ASIN B0C3MG289R

Measured:
466 g
256 mm = 10.08″
160 mm = 6.3″
7 mm (ex camera bump) = 0.27″

So all three pages have crazy W x H x T, but the 462 g is close to 466 g (Digital kitchen scales).


I suspect both the UK pages are the exact same model at two different prices!


Baffling.

[Quoth]

The mysterious model at £156 is about €190 Euro +/- charges etc. The DE price of named model is €215 + shipping, except it doesn't seem to ship outside Germany now.

I feel you, it's really hard to find a true mat screen protector. 90% of them are gimmicks, a foil which is mat inside but glossy on the surface. You need to find one which is mat on the surface, as a bonus it adds a nice non-slippery touch feel.

Here's my phone vs NXTPAPER 11

There is a slight blurring effect, I think it is pixel related.

By the way;
I bought the product I shared above. It is very protected and packaged in a way that gives a premium feeling. Honestly, I was very excited at that moment. The features of the screen protector are listed on the package. Surprise!

Not listed anti blue light with anti glare matte, or oleophobic coating
Not listed strong light reflection

After contacting Amazon customer service, I opened the premium package.

Surprise! Glare glossy on the surface!

When it comes to screen protectors, you should stick to reputable brands and also original ones. As a result, I learned this. I tried different brands twice... complete disappointment!

The manufacturer's email address was written on a label inside the box. I sent a message to the manufacturer but have not received any response yet. Let's see if there will be an answer or not! No matter what, I will definitely request a refund.

After returning the pen, I ordered a new one and the shipment arrived. Surprise! The tip of the new pen is not fixed, too. It moves up and down and sideways. On the tablet, the pen sometimes processes screen scrolling movements as clicks. I inserted and removed the tip with the extractor tool, but nothing changed.
I contacted the seller about this issue. It was said that information would be provided after contacting the manufacturer.

Have you observed any wear on the pen tip? -It is impossible to find a spare pen tip if needed.-
It would be better if it had a pen protective cap.

Yeah, I was very surprised looking at the TCL screen with zoom, it's indeed very blurred.

I bought the foil on AliExpress and cut it myself to the phone size. However, I've recently learned about this German company offering cut to measure foils.

I haven't tried it yet. There's a couple of good customer pictures in the TV section comments. The foil is definitely mate, but I'm not sure if it's mate on the surface or mate inside with glossy outer finish

[Quoth]

There is no such thing as matt inside and glossy surface, that would be either a filter or diffuser. By definition, matt is a surface property that reduces shine and reflection.
