Smartphone prices are skyrocketing, but one wireless carrier is trying to bring them back down and it’s doing so with an epic deal on one of our favorite budget Android phones.
For a limited time, you can get the TCL 50 XL NXTPAPER 5G for free at StraightTalk when you activate a line of service on a Silver Unlimited plan or higher. That’s one of the best cell phone deals I’ve seen at StraightTalk.
The TCL 50 XL NXTPAPER 5G is a big-screen phone designed to be easy on your eyes. It uses TCL’s NXTPAPER 3.0 display, which is designed to blend refresh rate and performance with eye-comfort. That means you get a matte display that doesn’t reflect light and offers a reading experience akin to what you’d find on an e-reader — albeit without e-ink.
On the hardware front, you get a MediaTek Dimensity 6100+ chipset, 6GB of RAM, and 128GB of storage. There’s also a 50MP main camera, 5MP ultrawide, 2MP depth lens, and 32MP front camera. TCL also packs a 5,010 mAH battery and support for up to 2TB microSD cards.
Like Visible and Total Wireless, StraightTalk is part of Verizon’s prepaid brands and a great carrier if you’re looking for value. To get this deal, however, you will need to sign up to StraightTalk’s Silver Unlimited plan or higher.
