A phone for readers and tired eyes.
60 XE NXTPAPER is a niche done well — a matte, glare-free, paper-like display with a one-press mono e-reader mode, aimed at heavy readers and the eye-strain-averse. The Dimensity 6300 and muted screen are the trade. If you read more than you watch, nothing else at $190 feels like this.
