TCL is challenging the dominance of RGB LED technology at CES with its X11L SQD-Mini LED TV, which features blue LEDs for backlighting and reformulated quantum dots, along with an UltraColor Filter, to achieve 100% of the BT.2020, DCI-P3, and Adobe RGB color gamuts without color crosstalk. The X11L boasts up to 10,000 nits of peak brightness and 20,000 dimming zones, making it one of the brightest displays available. It supports future technologies like Dolby Vision 2 and offers features such as four HDMI 2.1 ports, Xbox Game Pass app compatibility, and built-in Bang & Olufsen speakers. Available for preorder, the X11L comes in 85- and 98-inch models, with a 75-inch version expected later, and while initially expensive, TCL's pricing history suggests potential price drops. This matters as it highlights TCL's innovative approach to improving TV display technology, offering consumers enhanced color accuracy and future-proof features.
LG is entering the art TV market with its new Gallery TV, a competitor to Samsung's The Frame. The Gallery TV will feature the Gallery+ service, offering a wide array of display visuals, including art, cinematic images, and gaming scenes, with a subscription required for full access. Unlike OLED TVs, the mini-LED Gallery TV is designed to reduce glare and minimize reflections, enhancing its art-like viewing experience. Available in 55 and 65 inches, the TV comes with a default white frame and an optional wood-colored frame, although pricing details have not yet been disclosed. This matters as it expands consumer options in the growing art TV segment, providing more choices for those seeking a blend of technology and aesthetics.
