TCL CSOT showcases printed OLED, Micro LED, MLED, and tri-fold displays at DTC2025
TCL CSOT showcased a sweeping lineup of advanced display technologies at its DTC2025 conference, highlighting major progress in printed OLED, Micro LED, and MLED development. The company unveiled the world’s first 5.65-inch Real Stripe RGB OLED smartphone panel manufactured using inkjet printing. It achieves 390 PPI with a visual sharpness equivalent to 490 PPI, signaling a new chapter for small-size OLED production.
The printed OLED breakthrough is part of a broader shift toward sustainable manufacturing.

Construction is already underway for the t8 G8.6 line, the world’s first mass-production facility dedicated to printed OLED, with plans to support displays for monitors, tablets, and laptops.
TCL showcased several additional OLED innovations, including a 2.56-inch Real RGB OLED panel with 1,512 PPI for XR devices and a 13.2-inch tablet OLED with partitioned frequency control that lets different screen zones run at independent refresh rates.
The company also displayed a 6.9-inch OLED panel with natural-light certification and a 6.73-inch folding OLED with ultra-narrow bezels and a 95.96 percent screen-to-body ratio. In notebooks, TCL introduced a 16-inch inkjet-printed OLED gaming panel with 2.5K resolution, a 240Hz refresh rate, and adaptive sync for better energy efficiency.
On the Micro LED front, TCL CSOT revealed a 0.28-inch full-color silicon-based Micro LED panel with 1280×720 resolution and an industry-leading 5131 PPI. The ultra-compact display is geared toward AR and lightweight XR devices, combining high contrast, vivid colors, and low power consumption.
For large-format displays, TCL debuted a 163-inch MLED panel with a contrast ratio of 37,500:1, pixel-level hybrid PWM+PAM driving, and 24-bit color depth. It supports a 144Hz refresh rate and uses ultra-low-reflection materials for clearer visuals. TCL also introduced a 57-inch 8K MLED gaming panel with a 1,000Hz refresh rate, powered by the industry’s fastest 6G2P point-to-point driver IC and its proprietary CSPI 5.1 transmission protocol.
TCL CSOT also unveiled the world’s first tri-fold 28-inch portable OLED display. This foldable panel compresses into a compact 16-inch form factor and expands to 28 inches with a seamless folding mechanism and integrated stand, targeting mobile productivity and immersive entertainment.
These announcements reflect TCL CSOT’s strategy to lead across all major display categories while integrating AI-driven technologies and sustainable manufacturing to reshape the future of visual hardware.

What’s So Special About TCL T7 4K QLED Smart TV?
TCL has recently launched the TCL T7 4K QLED Smart TV series as its latest mid-range television lineup. The series includes 4K UHD resolution, QLED panels, high refresh rates, and Google TV integration. TCL positions the T7 as a premium entertainment and gaming TV that targets mainstream buyers without pushing the price too high.
Premium Looks Meet Sensible Design
TCL uses a bezel-less design across all T7 models. The TVs feature a minimalist look that suits wall mounting or table placement. TCL includes adjustable-width feet to allow more flexibility for setups with soundbars or compact entertainment units. This small design choice improves usability, especially in tighter spaces. Despite falling in the mid-range category, the T7 models look refined and clean.
QLED Visuals With 144Hz Sweetness
All four models in the T7 lineup support 4K resolution at 3840 × 2160. The 55-inch variant uses a 120Hz panel, while the 65, 75, and 85-inch versions move up to a native 144Hz refresh rate. This high refresh rate improves fast-motion clarity in games and sports content.
TCL adds support for variable refresh rate (VRR), Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM), and Game Accelerator. The 85-inch model can reach up to 288 VRR, which helps reduce input lag during gameplay. These features make the T7 Series suitable for console and PC gamers who want smoother motion and lower latency.
All the HDR Formats You Could Ask For
TCL supports a wide range of HDR formats on the T7 Series. Each model handles Dolby Vision, HDR10+, HDR10, HLG, and Open HDR. This broad compatibility allows content from most major streaming platforms to play in the intended HDR format.
The AiPQ Pro processor powers TCL’s picture enhancement. It adjusts image settings in real time to boost contrast, color accuracy, and detail sharpness. The QLED panel supports 1.07 billion display colors and uses a high-brightness LED backlight to improve image clarity in bright environments.
Smarter, Louder Smart TV
The T7 Series runs on Google TV. This platform gives access to thousands of apps and services, including Netflix, YouTube, and Disney+. Built-in Chromecast and Apple AirPlay 2 support allow wireless casting from Android and iOS devices.
TCL adds far-field microphones to all T7 models. This allows voice control without using the remote. The TVs also support Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa, and Apple HomeKit for smart home control. TCL includes a backlit voice remote and ships the unit with AAA batteries.
The 55-inch, 65-inch, and 75-inch models include a 2.0-channel speaker system, ranging from 20W to 30W. The 85-inch model features a 2.1 Onkyo speaker system with a built-in subwoofer and a total output of 40W. All models support Dolby Atmos and Dolby Digital+ formats to enhance spatial audio.
Ports, Power, and Peace of Mind
TCL includes four HDMI ports on each T7 TV, with one port supporting eARC. The TVs also come with USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 ports, Ethernet input, optical digital audio out, and RF input for antenna or cable. Wireless connectivity uses Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac).
Other included features are sleep timer, multilingual on-screen display, closed captions, JPEG/MP3 playback from USB, and accessibility options. Power consumption remains under 0.5W in standby mode. The TVs do not carry Energy Star certification. Each model supports VESA wall mounting.
Value Without Compromise
TCL prices the 55-inch T7 at $599.99. The 65-inch model costs $699.99, the 75-inch version is listed at $899.99, and the 85-inch model comes in at $1,399.99. These prices make the T7 Series competitive in the mid-range segment. TCL has not announced a specific release date, but availability is expected by the end of the year.
The T7 Series checks many boxes for buyers who want a high-performance smart TV without entering the premium OLED or Mini LED space. With QLED visuals, 144Hz gaming support, advanced HDR compatibility, and solid audio options, the T7 Series stands out as a complete and well-rounded offering in its price class.

TCL tops Double 11 TV sales, strengthens premium leadership with SQD-Mini LED technology
TCL led TV sales across the entire Double 11 shopping cycle in China, securing the top position and demonstrating strong brand momentum. The company achieved significant growth during the sales period, backed by its vertically integrated manufacturing and continuous investment in display technologies.
TCL’s performance highlights its ability to address diverse market demands through a complete supply chain that spans panels, modules, and finished units. This end-to-end control allows the company to fine-tune picture quality, performance, and reliability, ensuring consistent product standards and faster deployment of new technologies to consumers.
According to market research firm Omdia, TCL ranked among the top two global TV brands by shipment volume from Q1 to Q3 2025. It maintained its lead among Chinese brands, further strengthening its presence in the global premium TV segment.
The key driver of TCL’s success this year is its new SQD-Mini LED technology. Unlike conventional RGB-Mini LED systems that use three chips to create white light, SQD-Mini LED relies on a single chip. This approach improves light efficiency and allows three times more local dimming zones without increasing LED count. The result is significantly higher contrast and peak brightness, which enhances image detail and clarity.
The TCL X11L is the first flagship model to feature SQD-Mini LED technology. It showcases improved contrast, better transparency, and more precise light control, setting a new benchmark in high-end TV performance.
TCL’s leading position throughout the Double 11 period underscores the company’s strong technological foundation and growing consumer trust. The brand continues to drive innovation in home entertainment, reinforcing its role as a key player in the global display industry.
In related news, TCL has introduced its new T7 QLED TVs with 4K resolution, a 144Hz refresh rate, and Google TV, starting at $599.99.
