In the automotive segment, TCL CSOT is supplying all the display components for the Xiaomi YU7. The in-car setup includes a 16.1-inch central control display developed with Desay SV, and three 11.98-inch curved horizon projection screens developed in partnership with Foryou Corporation. TCL CSOT is the sole supplier of these custom panels, which are designed to provide a panoramic in-car visual experience.

TCL CSOT is also providing displays alongside Tianma for the upcoming Redmi K80 Ultra smartphone. The phone’s display is built using the same M9 luminescent material as the MIX Flip 2 and supports a peak brightness of 3200 nits.

This partnership is not new. TCL CSOT previously supplied displays for the Xiaomi 15 series and says it will continue to deepen its collaboration with Xiaomi. The two companies are expected to focus on advancements in flexible displays, power efficiency, and high-resolution panels in future projects.

Looking ahead, both the Xiaomi 16 Pro and Redmi K90 Pro, expected to launch later in 2025, are rumored to feature TCL CSOT’s next-generation Real RGB OLED displays. These panels aim to deliver more accurate color reproduction and improved light efficiency by moving away from the traditional RGBW subpixel layout.

In related news, TCL has launched its SF560K Series QLED Fire TVs in the UK, featuring HDR10, Dolby Audio, and Freely integration. The company has also introduced a 57-inch 32:9 Dual 4K curved ultrawide monitor, aimed at gamers and multitaskers seeking immersive visuals and expanded productivity.

According to the leak, the K80 Ultra will feature a flat 6.83-inch M9 OLED panel with a resolution of 2772×1280 and a 144Hz refresh rate. It supports 800 nits of typical brightness, 1800 nits in high-brightness mode, and up to 3200 nits at peak. The display will be supplied by TCL CSOT and Tianma, continuing the dual-sourcing approach previously seen in the Redmi K70 Ultra. The touch layer is handled by FocalTech. While panel sourcing from multiple vendors often sparks concerns over display consistency, Xiaomi is expected to apply uniform calibration across units.

TCL CSOT’s presence in Xiaomi’s smartphone lineup is only growing. The Xiaomi 15 and 15 Pro series, released earlier, relied heavily on TCL CSOT for their OLED panels. The collaboration appears to be expanding further this year. Both the Xiaomi 16 Pro and Redmi K90 Pro, expected to launch later in 2025, are rumored to feature TCL CSOT’s next-generation Real RGB OLED displays. These panels are designed to deliver more accurate color reproduction and higher light efficiency by moving away from traditional RGBW layouts.

The K80 Ultra will also bring high-end internals, including the MediaTek Dimensity 9400+ processor, D2 discrete GPU, LPDDR5X RAM, and UFS 4.1 storage. It will be powered by a 7410mAh battery with 100W fast charging and bypass charging support.

In terms of cameras, the device includes a 50MP Light Hunter 800 main sensor with OIS, paired with an 8MP OV08F ultra-wide, and a 20MP OV20B front camera. Other premium features include a metal mid-frame, Dragon Crystal glass, IP68/IP69 protection, dual stereo speakers, and X-axis linear motor. The phone also integrates Xiaomi’s Surge chip suite, T1, T1S, P3, and G1, for better power management.

The K80 Ultra will be available in four color variants: Spruce Green, Ice Blue, Moon Rock White, and Sandstone Gray. It weighs 219 grams and measures 8.18mm in thickness.

Unlike the widely used PenTile OLED arrangement, which uses fewer sub-pixels per pixel, the Real RGB layout assigns separate red, green, and blue sub-pixels to each pixel. This configuration improves sharpness and text clarity, potentially matching or exceeding the visual precision of LCD panels at similar resolutions while retaining OLED benefits such as deep blacks and high contrast.

The new panels are said to support a 2K resolution of 2048×1080. Assuming a 6.7-inch display size, this would translate to a pixel density of around 345 PPI. While the resolution appears lower than that of the Xiaomi 15 Pro, the use of a full RGB layout may result in a cleaner and more detailed image, particularly for text and UI elements.

TCL CSOT has also reportedly improved the luminous efficiency of the blue sub-pixel, which typically has the shortest lifespan in OLED displays. This enhancement could reduce the risk of burn-in and extend the overall life of the panel.

The shift to smartphone displays marks a significant step in TCL’s inkjet OLED roadmap. The company previously focused on larger formats, such as 21.6-inch 4K panels for medical use. The move toward smartphones indicates a broader commercial push, with Xiaomi positioned as one of the first brands to adopt the technology.

If production stays on schedule, Real RGB OLED panels could appear in consumer smartphones before the end of the year.

In related developments, TCL is set to acquire an additional 21.53% stake in CSOT for $1.62 billion. Meanwhile, the company has launched the TCL 60 XE NXTPAPER 5G in the US, featuring an E-Ink-style display and built-in AI tools.

The Xiaomi TV S Mini LED is the brand’s first to use a low-reflection screen. TCL CSOT developed the panel using a multi-layer optical film structure that adjusts the thickness and refractive index of each layer. This design reduces surface reflectivity to just 1.8 percent, allowing the display to maintain deeper blacks and improved color fidelity even under direct lighting.

TCL CSOT’s HVA technology also improves light control and response speed, making it a strong fit for high-performance Mini LED backlighting. The TV delivers up to 1700 nits of peak brightness, which helps preserve detail in bright scenes without overexposure. It also supports a 288Hz refresh rate, ensuring smoother playback during high-speed sports broadcasts or competitive gaming sessions.

Xiaomi has equipped the TV with a full suite of smart features, but the display remains the focal point. The combination of low reflectivity, high brightness, and fast refresh rate positions the TV S Mini LED as a flagship option for users seeking both visual quality and performance.

TCL CSOT has become an increasingly important supplier in Xiaomi’s ecosystem. Beyond the TV segment, Xiaomi has also selected TCL CSOT as the exclusive panel partner for its new 15S Pro smartphone. The device uses a 6.73-inch 2K quad-curved OLED screen built with TCL CSOT’s C9 material and dual-microcavity design, capable of reaching 3200 nits peak brightness. This growing partnership reflects Xiaomi’s shift toward deeper integration with domestic display technology providers.
