TCL QM9K QD-Mini LED TV launched with Gemini AI

TCL has launched the QM9K QD-Mini LED TV series as its new flagship lineup. It features brightness upgrades, advanced dimming precision, and integrated AI. The series builds on last year’s QM8K and comes as the first Google TV range to include Google Gemini.
TCL QM9K Specifications
The QM9K comes in sizes ranging from 65 to 98 inches. It equips TCL’s Halo Control System, which manages up to 6,000 local dimming zones and delivers peak HDR brightness of 6,500 nits. TCL claims this results in 30% higher brightness and 57% more dimming zones compared to the QM8K. It sports a CrystGlow WHVA panel with a ZeroBorder design that provides wider viewing angles, vivid colors, and reduced blooming in high-contrast scenes.
The smart features receive a major upgrade. It comes with Google Gemini running natively, enabling conversational voice queries, contextual search, and follow-up questions. It equips an mmWave presence sensor that can wake the TV, adjust modes, or show screensavers when someone enters the room. It also features far-field microphones and a backlit voice remote for both hands-free and push-to-talk commands.

The QM9K also focuses on gaming performance. It features a native 144Hz refresh rate and Game Accelerator 288, which supports up to 288Hz variable refresh rates in certain scenarios. It comes with AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, Auto Low Latency Mode, and TCL’s Game Bar for real-time adjustments. It also supports Motion Rate 480 with MEMC technology, which is included to improve clarity in fast-moving content.
The audio system comes tuned by Bang & Olufsen and features Dolby Atmos along with Flex Connect support for flexible speaker setups. Connectivity includes four HDMI 2.1 ports with eARC, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.4, Chromecast, and Apple AirPlay 2. It also works with Alexa, Google Assistant, and Apple HomeKit.
Pricing and Availability
The TCL QM9K series will be available later this month at Best Buy and regional retailers in sizes from 65 to 98 inches.

TCL launches Nxtpaper 5G Junior, a kid-focused phone with eye protection & parental controls

TCL has announced the Nxtpaper 5G Junior, a smartphone built for children with an emphasis on eye protection and screen time management. The device made its debut at IFA 2025 in Berlin and will go on sale in Europe this December for £159. Each unit will include a protective case. TCL has not confirmed availability for other markets.
The Nxtpaper 5G Junior is part of TCL’s Nxtpaper lineup, which uses a paper-like display to reduce strain on the eyes. The phone features a dedicated button for “Max Ink Mode,” which switches the screen into a monochrome, E Ink-style view. This mode reduces eye fatigue during reading sessions, limits gaming because of its restricted visuals, and helps extend battery life.
TCL has equipped the phone with a complete set of parental controls supported by Google Family Link. These allow parents to filter content, monitor screen time, and control app access. The device also includes a “digital detox” mode that promotes healthier breaks from screen use.
To make the experience more appealing to children, TCL has introduced a collection of cartoon characters known as the “AI Genius Squad,” which are integrated into the phone’s features.
The device comes with a 6.7-inch screen, which may feel large for children’s hands, especially with the bundled case attached. It offers 256GB of storage, a dual rear camera setup, and standard 5G connectivity. While the generous storage and camera system make it a capable device, the size could be less comfortable for younger users.
TCL is positioning the Nxtpaper 5G Junior as part of its wider push to address the impact of prolonged screen exposure. The company’s Nxtpaper technology focuses on creating displays that are easier on the eyes, and this model extends that mission to children.
Alongside this phone, TCL has also launched the Nxtpaper 60 Ultra at IFA 2025 with a 7.2″ eye-care display, AI tools & Dimensity 7400.

On the hardware side, the NXTPAPER 60 Ultra runs on MediaTek’s Dimensity 7400 chipset paired with up to 24GB of RAM (12GB plus 12GB expansion) and up to 512GB of internal storage. It packs a 5,200mAh battery with 33W fast charging and 10W reverse charging. The design is slim at 7.57mm and weighs 227g, while IP68 water and dust resistance adds durability.
The rear camera setup includes a 50MP main sensor with OIS, a 50MP 3x periscope telephoto lens, and an 8MP ultra-wide camera. On the front, a 32MP sensor handles selfies and video calls.
