TCL Reaffirms its Leadership in Mini LED TVs in 2022

HONG KONG, Aug. 8, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Driven by its culture of creativity and innovation, the past four decades have witnessed TCL's rapid growth to become one of the dominant players in the global TV industry with vertical integration capabilities and a diversified product portfolio including award-winning TV and audio home appliances.

The Future of LCD Display: Mini LED Technology

Delivering high contrast, high brightness, an ultra-thin profile and many local dimming zones, Mini LED technology provides the 2022 TCL TV series with exceptional picture and colour quality. Effortlessly handling fast-moving images – Mini LED TVs are perfect for sporting action and iconic movies - offering a perfect visual fluidity, without any flickering or shaking.

TCL is proud of its achievements in Mini LED technology since 2018, and the company has received a host of endorsements from media and professional associations. In 2022, TCL launches its latest generation of Mini LED technology, with even more new major benefits for users:

• 16-Bit Ultra-precise Light Control to offer richer colours and more details
• Round Halo Mini LED to eliminate a blooming halo of white objects on pure black backgrounds
• TCL Mini LED Backlight Direct Drive to ensure fast moving objects are clearer and sharper on the screen
• Mini LED uniform quality to have a single colour uniform image
• TCL Mini LED backlight demura with a uniform light control (no spotlight, no gray patch, no dirty screen effect)

Leveraging its first-mover advantage in the Mini LED space, TCL achieved significant growth in sales volume for its mid-to-high-end smart screens in 2021. Sales volumes for TCL QLED and Mini LED smart screens increased by 53.8% and 50.5% year-on-year, respectively.

The Forefront of Mini LED technology: OD Zero Mini LED

The OD Zero Mini LED features the smallest LED chip and doubles the number of local dimming zones. By minimizing the LED chip, it enables TCL to maximize the backlighting precision to deliver ultimate contrast and brightness. By removing the standard Optical Distance, TCL is also able to build the slimmest direct-lit TVs ever. In 2022, TCL's 8K OD Zero Mini LED TV – the X9 (X925 PRO) - has been named as CES® 2022 Innovation Awards Honorees, winning the prestigious "Best of Innovation" award.
