Deal | TCL Nxtpaper tablets and phones designed to reduce eye strain and headaches on sale
TCL has discounted its line of Nxtpaper tablets and phones for Amazon Prime users in time for the Black Friday shopping season. The Nxtpaper display technology provides relief for digital device users who suffer from eye strain, headaches, and other illnesses common with flickering light sources.
Eye health
Some people are sensitive to flickering light sources, such as fluorescent bulbs, common LED light bulbs, and many laptops, tablets, and phones that use pulsing LED or OLED lighting technology (pulse width modulation or PWM) to control their brightness. The flickering causes eye strain as the pupils unconsciously contract and widen with changes in brightness, which can then lead to worsening headaches and other illnesses, as many readers of the LEDStrain Forum have reported.
Glare from glossy screens from the sun and external light souces, as well as excessive blue light, can also contribute to these problems and even prevent restful sleep at night due to circadian sleep cycle disruption.
Nxtpaper technology helps counter these ill effects according to TCL with matte, paper-like screens that generate low blue light, have low glare and low light reflection, and come with flicker-free backlights. In a review of the older TCL 50 Pro using this display technology, Notebookcheck found that "unlike many other smartphones, reflections in bright environments are not a problem" and that the display had no measurable PWM.
