TCL PlayCube portable projector launched with Google TV, 66Wh battery & cube-inspired design

TCL PlayCube

TCL has launched the PlayCube, a portable projector shaped like a cube and inspired by the Rubik’s Cube. The projector was showcased earlier this year at CES. The compact device measures 5.9 x 3.8 x 3.8 inches, weighs 1.3kg, and is designed for easy use at home or outdoors.

TCL PlayCube Specifications

The PlayCube uses a TI 0.33-inch DMD chip that TCL says delivers 103 percent more pixels than smaller 0.23-inch chips. It supports native 1080p resolution with 4K playback and covers 124 percent of the REC.709 color gamut. The projector reaches 750 ISO lumens of brightness, making it suitable for different lighting conditions.

TCL includes its ImmersiColor technology for improved contrast and depth. It integrates an Osram three-color LED light source that simulates natural sunlight for softer visuals. The device supports projection sizes ranging from 30 to 150 inches and comes with automatic focus, keystone correction, and obstacle avoidance for easier setup and clearer viewing.

The cube design allows 90-degree rotation for angle adjustments without a stand or mount. It comes with a 66Wh battery that powers up to three hours of playback. TCL claims that a 30-minute charge provides an extra hour of use, making it convenient for quick viewing sessions.

The PlayCube runs Google TV, so users do not need an external dongle. It comes with official Netflix certification, pre-installed apps, and Google Cast support for streaming from phones or tablets. Google Assistant enables hands-free voice control, and the projector can also control connected smart home devices.

The PlayCube has a 5W speaker with Dolby Digital Plus and EQ modes tuned for movies, music, and sports. TCL uses a copper heat pipe system to improve thermal performance, which it claims is 50 percent more efficient than rivals. The projector operates at 26dB or lower, keeping fan noise to a minimum.

TCL-5G-Mobile-WiFi-P50

TCL is done waiting for the future of connectivity; it just launched it. At CES 2026, the company unveiled the 5G Mobile WiFi P50 and WiFi Router BE36, two devices designed to cover the entire spectrum of modern connectivity needs, from your backyard to your basement office.

The TCL 5G Mobile WiFi P50 is more than a pocketable hotspot. It’s the first 5G mmWave mobile router that also supports both fast charging and wireless charging. It packs a 5000mAh battery for up to 12 hours of portable use, doubles as a power bank, and features a 2.4-inch touchscreen for live network stats. On the connectivity side, it delivers up to 3.97Gbps via full-spectrum 5G (mmWave + Sub-6), and tri-band Wi-Fi 7 speeds topping 5.8Gbps for up to 64 devices. There’s even a Gigabit Ethernet port for times when wireless just won’t cut it.

While the P50 is built for mobility, the TCL WiFi Router BE36 is focused on home performance. It offers 3.6Gbps Wi-Fi 7 across dual bands, supports up to 512 device connections, and leverages 3T3R (2ss) antenna tech to boost range. It’s EasyMesh R6 compatible too, meaning you can deploy multiple units to blanket large homes in a seamless, zero dead-zone network.

Security hasn’t been left behind either. The BE36 includes firewall-level protection with malware filters, brute-force attack detection, and smart-home security baked in. There’s even a built-in VPN suite and a dedicated gaming acceleration mode. Rounding it off is a 2.5GE port for serious wired performance.

TCL’s RayNeo has introduced the RayNeo Air 4 Pro AR glasses at CES 2026. The device is the world’s first AR glasses to support HDR10, aiming to deliver a cinema-like viewing experience in a lightweight wearable form.

They connect to USB-C display output devices, including smartphones, tablets, laptops, and gaming consoles such as the Nintendo Switch 2.

The Air 4 Pro is powered by the custom Vision 4000 chip. The processor enables real-time video enhancements, including upscaling SDR content to HDR and converting 2D video into 3D. The glasses support HDR10 for richer contrast and more vibrant color reproduction.

For audio, RayNeo collaborated with Bang & Olufsen to design a four-speaker system. The glasses use directional sound tubes to provide immersive audio while minimizing sound leakage. The sound system has been fine-tuned by B&O’s audio engineering team.

The design focuses on comfort and portability. Adjustable nose pads and a balanced frame allow for extended use. The lightweight build makes it suitable for travel and on-the-go entertainment.

RayNeo plans to launch the Air 4 Pro globally on January 25 for $299. The price undercuts many other AR glasses in the market, making it one of the most affordable options in its class.
