That&#8217;s where the TCL NXTPAPER 70 Pro comes in. If you haven&#8217;t heard, the 70 Pro is one of the coolest budget phones released in the last few years, packing the latest eye-friendly display technology into a device that retails for just $199. <\/p>\n<p>You can&#8217;t buy unlocked phones through retailers like Amazon or Best Buy yet, but if you add a line with an eligible data plan, <a rel=\"sponsored noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/tmobile.pxf.io\/c\/221109\/2929158\/34576?subId1=ac-us-5303829983756759916&amp;sharedId=ac-us&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.metrobyt-mobile.com%2Fcell-phone%2Ftcl-nxtpaper-70-pro\" data-url=\"https:\/\/www.metrobyt-mobile.com\/cell-phone\/tcl-nxtpaper-70-pro\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-hl-processed=\"hawklinks\" data-google-interstitial=\"false\" data-placeholder-url=\"https:\/\/tmobile.pxf.io\/c\/221109\/2929158\/34576?subId1=hawk-custom-tracking&amp;sharedId=hawk-prefix&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.metrobyt-mobile.com%2Fcell-phone%2Ftcl-nxtpaper-70-pro\" data-merchant-name=\"Metro by T-Mobile\" data-merchant-id=\"578225\" data-merchant-network=\"ImpactRad\" data-merchant-url=\"metrobyt-mobile.com\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"inline-link\"><strong>Metro by T-Mobile will give you the NXTPAPER 70 Pro for free<\/strong><\/a>.

The display is obviously the phone&#8217;s primary selling point, but there&#8217;s more to the NXTPAPER 70 Pro than just a fancy screen. <\/p>\n<p>Priced at just under $200, this cheap Android phone comes with Android 16 and an efficient MediaTek Dimensity 7300 processor straight out of the box, plus you get IP68 water-and-dust resistance, 8GB of RAM, and a long-lasting 5,200mAh battery. <\/p>\n<p>The problem, as I mentioned above, is that you have to join Metro by T-Mobile and add an eligible data plan to get the free phone. These unlimited plans start at $50 per month with autopay, but you&#8217;ll get unlimited talk, text and data, a mobile hotspot, and a five-year price guarantee. Most plans from Metro by T-Mobile come with 100GB of Google One storage. <\/p>\n<p>Sure, the TCL NXTPAPER 70 Pro may eventually reach Amazon and Best Buy, but if you want a great deal on an eye-friendly budget phone today, this offer from the T-Mobile-owned carrier is worth a closer look. Your eyes (and your bank account) will thank you later. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In most cases, if you want an advanced Android phone experience, you can pretty much guarantee it will cost a lot of money.
