At the core of SQD-Mini LED is TCL’s Deep Color System, which helps reduce color bleed between bright and dark areas, so colors remain natural in high-contrast scenes. This is reinforced with a 100% BT.2020 All Scenes Wide Color Gamut, accurately reproducing true color saturation during scenes that contain visuals like sunlight on metal or neon signs in a dark room. Contrastingly, a TV with a 90% BT.2020 may struggle in these scenarios, resulting in less impactful visuals.  

Compared with previous generations, SQD-Mini LED delivers measurable improvements that translate directly into what viewers see: 

• Up to a 33% improvement in color gamut performance, resulting in richer and more lifelike colors23 
• Up to a 69% improvement in color dot accuracy, helping subtle tones and fine details appear cleaner and more precise4 

During movies and series that feature night scenes, bright neon lights, or fast motion like a car chase, picture quality can sometimes decrease, producing washed-out colors, visible halos or losing detail. SQD-Mini LED technology is designed to address this by managing how light and color work together across the screen. SQD-Mini LED refines how light is filtered at the color level, without any color crosstalk and maintaining stable color accuracy even in complex, colorful scenes. 

In everyday viewing, halo effects are most noticeable in the moments that matter most: bright subtitles on a dark screen, city lights at night, or a spotlight cutting through a shadowy scene. These visual distractions can pull attention away from the content itself. 

SQD-Mini LED addresses this through TCL’s All-Domain Halo Control System, which effectively minimizes the halo effect seen around bright objects on dark backgrounds.  The result is a picture that feels more natural and immersive, especially in real-world living environments where lighting conditions change throughout the day. 

TCL’s flagship X11L SQD-Mini LED TV Series brings together unmatched display performance, immersive sound and a refined design approach. With an ultra-thin depth of 2cm, the X11L is engineered to integrate naturally into modern interiors while delivering ultimate large-screen impact. 

Designed for demanding content such as fast-moving sports, action films, or visually rich series, bright highlights and dark scenes remain balanced, so detail stays clear without distraction. 

This experience is backed by advanced display performance, including up to 20,736 precise dimming zones, up to 10,000 nits peak brightness, and support for 100% BT.2020 All Scenes Wide Color Gamut, helping deliver cinema-grade color and contrast at home. Motion remains smooth during fast-paced scenes thanks to a native 144Hz refresh rate, while HDR10+ and Dolby Vision further enhance contrast for a more lifelike viewing experience. The X11L features audio by Bang & Olufsen, delivering clear, room-filling audio without the need for extra equipment. 

TCL is working closely with Google to bring Gemini capabilities to supported markets in the future. It's in Google TV's roadmap to launch in additional locales and languages in 2026. 

Beyond the flagship model, TCL’s SQD-Mini LED platform will extend across additional TVs within the 2026 lineup, applying the same core principles of refined color filtration, advanced halo control, and intelligent image processing to a broader range of screen sizes and viewing preferences. 

The C8L brings the SQD-Mini LED experience into the premium family segment, delivering large-screen immersion, refined minimalist design, and cinema-level sound.  

With up to 6000 nits peak brightness and up to 4032 local dimming zones, it preserves contrast and detail across both bright and dark scenes. Support for up to 100% BT.2020 All Scenes Wide Color Gamut means scenes remain vibrant and clear. The WHVA 2.0 Ultra Panel offers superior, high-contrast wide-angle viewing for enhanced color accuracy even when you’re watching it from the side of the room.  

144Hz native refresh rate keeps motion smooth, while Bang & Olufsen audio and Dolby Atmos add depth and clarity without needing additional sound equipment. It is designed for households seeking a balanced home theater experience that combines visual impact with everyday versatility. 

The C7L broadens the SQD-Mini LED portfolio, applying the same principles of refined light control and color accuracy within a streamlined performance configuration. Streaming, gaming and live TV benefit from up to HDR 3000 nits peak brightness and up to 2176 dimming zones, delivering clear contrast and strong highlights in everyday viewing. 144Hz native refresh rate, 288 VRR Game Accelerator, and HDMI 2.1 support responsive gameplay without lag during important moments, while Dolby Atmos enhances sound for a more engaging all‑round experience. 

Featuring a 288 VRR Game Accelerator, the C7L is perfect for gamers looking for ultra-fast, smooth motion that doesn’t lag during important moments. The HVA 2.0 Pro Panel reduces screen reflection even in bright rooms and gives wider viewing angles of up to 178 degrees so you can enjoy content from multiple points in the room.
