Four models target streaming, study, and work

The lineup includes the TCL TAB A1, TCL TAB A1 NXTPAPER, TCL TAB A1 Plus, and TCL TAB A1 Plus NXTPAPER. TCL built the range around two choices: screen size and display type, letting buyers pick the combination that fits their routine.

11-inch models favor portability, Plus versions add screen space

The 11-inch TAB A1 models measure 6.2mm thick, with 2.1K resolution and a refresh rate up to 90Hz, aimed at users who carry a tablet between home, school, and work. The 12.2-inch TAB A1 Plus models step up to 2.4K resolution, a 3:2 aspect ratio, and a refresh rate up to 120Hz, giving more room for movies, browsing, document work, and split-screen multitasking.

Berlin – September 09, 2026 -- DUVA, a brand created by Fitnexa, unveiled DUVA ONE at IFA Berlin 2026, a sleep earbud system that adjusts audio and noise cancellation while a person is still asleep rather than just reporting data the next morning.

The earbuds respond to snoring partners and street noise mid-sleep

DUVA ONE pairs low-profile earbuds with a charging case that senses noise, light, temperature, and humidity in the bedroom. If a partner starts snoring or traffic gets louder, the system can boost active noise cancellation (ANC) or layer in sound masking automatically. A user might fall asleep to a podcast over Bluetooth, then have the system switch to locally stored sleep audio once they doze off, conserving battery in the process.
