In a market that is completely dominated by Apple, it’s important for tablet manufacturers to offer a real point of difference with their products.

It’s not enough to just slab a brand badge on a slab of glass, install the latest version of Android and hope to ship millions of devices.

This forced innovation can lead to some fascinating products. The TCL NXTPAPER 10s is one of these products. It has a unique screen that’s designed to look more like paper than a TV, plus a dedicated PC mode with the bundled keyboard attachment.
