TCL has announced the Note A1 Tablet for international markets, and it's built around a paper-like digital writing and reading experience. The tablet uses TCL's NxtPaper display technology instead of E Ink, so you get full color and higher refresh rates while keeping the matte, anti-glare finish. Let's get into this article, where I will discuss everything about the TCL Note A1 Tablet, including its expected price in Nepal, specifications, and availability.
TCL Note A1 Tablet Overview
Display
Starting off the design, the tablet you are getting measures 260.1 × 196.5 × 5.5mm and weighs 500 grams. On the Note AI you will find a thicker bezel on one side for one-handed use, a circular front button, and a single rear camera. The tablet also includes a fingerprint sensor, wireless display casting, and a magnetic pogo pin connector for a keyboard accessory.
On the display side of things, the Note A1 Tablet has an 11.5-inch anti-glare LCD panel with TCL's NxtPaper display technology. This display supports 16.7 million colors and uses a matte finish that mimics paper. TCL has claimed the NxtPaper tech reduces blue light and eliminates flickering.
Stylus and Writing Features
The tablet comes with stylus support that has dual tips and an integrated eraser. TCL here claims that the Note A1 has “extremely low input latency,” so writing, sketching, and drawing are where it will excel. Similarly, the tablet can also convert handwritten notes into digital text, and there are AI-based features like note summarization, voice transcription, and smart search.
