TCL C8K QD-Mini LED TV series launches in Europe with premium display and audio features

TCL has launched its new C8K QD-Mini LED TV series in Europe. This lineup is identical to the TCL QM8K series released in the US last month. The European version, also known as the C81K in some markets, had already been previewed in April. It is now available in countries including Spain, France, and Italy.
TCL C8K QD-Mini LED TV Specifications
The C8K series uses TCL CSOT’s CrystGlow WHVA Panel with an almost bezel-free ZeroBorder design. TCL claims the panel offers 40 percent wider color viewing angles compared to previous models and significantly reduces glare with its anti-reflective surface. The combination of ultra-thin bezels, improved panel construction, and aerospace-grade aluminum alloy gives the C8K a premium, modern appearance.
Each TV in the series features TCL’s Halo Control System. The system enhances color accuracy and gray scale performance while reducing blooming and halo effects. The new Super High Energy LED chip and Super Condensed Micro Lens allow for better light control. The series also integrates TCL’s Micro OD technology, which minimizes the optical distance between the backlight and diffuser plate to improve image clarity.
The C8K supports up to 3,840 local dimming zones and achieves a peak brightness of up to 5,000 nits on the 98-inch model. The panel delivers a native contrast ratio of 7,000:1 and covers 97 percent of the DCI-P3 color space using advanced Quantum Dot technology.
The series also includes TCL’s Zero-Delay Transient Response technology, which minimizes lag between the input signal and backlight response. This ensures clearer motion and more accurate rendering of fast-moving content. Gamers will benefit from a 144Hz native refresh rate and Game Accelerator 288Hz support, along with AMD FreeSync Premium Pro certification.
The C8K features Audio by Bang & Olufsen, with up-firing Dolby Atmos drivers for immersive audio performance. The TVs also support Dolby Vision IQ, HDR10+, and IMAX Enhanced certification. TCL has added a new backlit remote and hands-free voice control.
The C8K runs on Google TV and supports popular services like Apple TV and Disney+. It also includes Apple AirPlay and Google Chromecast for wireless content sharing, along with Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth support.
TCL has not yet confirmed availability for other European markets such as the UK.
Pricing for the TCL C8K series in Europe is as follows:
- 65-inch model: €1,499
- 75-inch model: €1,899
- 85-inch model: €2,499
- 98-inch model: €3,499

TCL Makes US Commercial Display Push, Backed by CSOT Manufacturing

TCL officially entered the commercial display market at InfoComm 2025 with the launch of its TCL Professional sub-brand, following its debut of new commercial display innovations at ISE 2025. The new product line targets B2B applications and includes a range of displays designed for continuous use in business environments such as signage, wayfinding, and digital information systems.
The initial lineup includes the TMN, TBN, and TEN series. The TMN series supports 24 by 7 operation, offers 500 nits brightness, and covers 93 percent of the DCI P3 color gamut. It is available in sizes ranging from 32 inches to 115 inches. The TBN series also supports 24 x 7 usage and shares the same 9.9 millimeter bezel and 1.2 inch slim profile as the TMN model,s but delivers 400 nits brightness. Display sizes for the TBN line range from 43 to 75 inches. The TEN series supports 18 by 7 operation with 350 nits brightness and features a three-sided bezel-free design in sizes from 43 to 75 inches.
TCL equips the TMN and TBN displays with Android 13, while the TEN series runs on Android 9. All models are designed to fit commercial use cases that require consistent performance and visual clarity.
The company’s commercial display initiative is backed by CSOT, a TCL group company and one of the largest panel manufacturers globally. This integration allows TCL to maintain control over its hardware components and manufacturing processes, which may benefit performance and supply chain reliability.
TCL’s displays will be used in the upcoming Olympic Games as part of its role as an official sponsor. The displays will support visual communications within Olympic Villages through applications such as digital signage and navigation systems.
At InfoComm, TCL is also highlighting its growing focus on software compatibility. While the displays remain software agnostic, TCL is demonstrating integration with Videri, a company that offers cloud-based content and device management tools. The Videri Embedded system allows content delivery and monitoring directly from within the display, helping businesses deploy digital signage with fewer technical barriers.
TCL has introduced a five-year warranty for the TMN and TBN models. The warranty reflects the company’s approach to meeting the reliability expectations of commercial customers. Visitors can view the full lineup and demonstrations at booth number 1642 during InfoComm 2025.

TCL’s AI Super Drum T7R Pro Wants to Rethink How Clean Your Clothes Can Get

Washing machines have long freed us from hand scrubbing, but they still falter when it comes to tough stains. TCL’s AI Super Drum T7R Pro wants to change that. The company claims it achieves a 1.31 clean ratio, driven by a fully AI-powered wash system. During China’s 618 shopping festival, it surged to the top of bestseller lists on JD.com and Tmall, sparking real consumer interest.
At this year’s AWE 2025, TCL showed off the T7R Pro as proof that Chinese appliance tech has reached global heights. The company, with 30 years of expertise and over 1,600 patents, has already won awards like the iF Design and IFA Innovation Gold. Now it is pushing toward smarter, cleaner washing.
The hardware is a big part of the story. The 540mm drum, larger than industry norms, lets clothes tumble with more force, helping dislodge deep grime. Six 6D lifters with bionic ridges guide garments in an S-curve, targeting hard-to-clean zones like collars and cuffs. Even delicate fabrics benefit, thanks to a wave-patterned drum wall that cushions clothes. Silk and stuffed toys come out pristine.
But the real shift is AI. TCL’s Fuxi AI model reads fabric and stain types using eight sensors. Toss in a mixed load of cotton and wool? The machine automatically adjusts wash settings and temperatures. It also doses detergent with near-perfect precision, guided by optical sensors, keeping waste and residue to a minimum.
Drying gets an upgrade too. Instead of blasting clothes with high heat, the T7R Pro uses a low 55°C cycle to keep garments soft. For delicates, TCL offers the compact Minion Mini Washer, with high-temp and UV cycles perfect for underwear and stubborn stains.
The T7R Pro blends brute cleaning power with AI finesse. It feels less like a washing machine and more like a connected home device that knows how to treat your clothes and your time.

TCL has launched the C6K QD-MiniLED TV in European markets following its debut in India in May. The model appears under different names depending on the region, including C61K and C69K.
TCL C6K QD-MiniLED TV Specifications
The C6K supports multiple HDR formats, including Dolby Vision IQ, HDR10+, and HLG. The high peak brightness level allows viewers to see clear images even in bright rooms. TCL includes a High Vertical Alignment (HVA) panel with a native contrast ratio between 6000:1 and 7000:1, depending on the model. The panel also offers a wide viewing angle and power-efficient performance.

Features like Game Master Mode, Gamebar, and Superwide GameView add additional customization and responsiveness for gamers.
TCL uses its in-house AiPQ Pro Processor to enhance picture quality in real time. The chip performs pixel-level image adjustments and adapts brightness and contrast based on ambient lighting. The AI Contrast feature improves detail visibility in both dark and bright scenes by adjusting the image according to the viewing environment.
The C6K comes with an integrated 2.1-channel Onkyo speaker system. TCL includes independent subwoofers on the back of the TV to deliver deeper bass. The audio system supports Dolby Atmos and DTS Virtual:X, which aim to provide immersive, multi-directional sound without requiring external speakers.
The TV runs on Google TV and supports Google Assistant voice commands. It includes HDMI 2.1 and HDMI 2.0 ports, USB 3.0, Ethernet LAN, and Wi-Fi 6. TCL has also received TÜV Rheinland certification for low blue light emissions, which may help reduce eye strain during extended viewing sessions.
