The full range of new TCL TVs can be seen at CES 2023, with offerings topped by the company’s Q series models. They range in size from 50 inches to a whopping 98 inches and feature features such as quantum dots and mini-LED backlighting, with the top models featuring a record number of full zones of local dimming in a consumer display, according to the company.
The TCL lineup is headed by the QM8 series. These models will be sold with screen sizes from 65 to 98 inches and feature mini-LED Ultra backlighting, which provides twice the peak brightness and five times more local dimming zones than the company’s 2022 mini-LED TVs. TCL says the QM8 series provides up to 2,300 local dimming zones – the most in any 4K or 8K mini-LED TV. The QM8 series are models with a native frequency of 120 Hz and equipped with the smart interface of Google TV and a built-in subwoofer for a more dynamic built-in sound.
The Q7 series includes mid-range TCL TVs with a layer of quantum dots for increased brightness and color. Available in screen sizes from 55 to 75 inches, they feature full LED backlighting with local dimming. Gaming features include a native 120Hz display, VRR and FreeSync Premium Pro, while on the smart TV front is Google TV with voice remote and hands-free voice control.
TCL’s Q6 Series models are the company’s budget line of quantum dots. According to TCL, they provide 66% more brightness than standard non-QLED displays. The Q6 series are native 60Hz models but provide gaming features like VRR and FreeSync Premium Pro. Screen sizes range from 50 inches upwards.
QD-OLED TVs will also be added to TCL’s lineup later in 2023. Details on the new models have been scarce, but we expect them to come in screen sizes of at least 55 and 65 inches – and possibly a new 77-inch size too.
