TCL is unveiling a single TV at CES 2026, the X11L, a super-sized LCD screen which incorporates a Super Quantum Dot layer designed to provide even better color and eye-scorching brightness.
While a number of companies at this year’s conference, including LG and Samsung, are touting MicroRGB backlights for improving colors, TCL says its method allows for better contrast due to its unique backlighting system.
The 4K TV says the SQ-LED screen combines three new “TCL Deep Color System” technologies to achieve 100% of the BT.2020 color space, including Super Quantum Dot Crystals (Super QLED), a TCL UltraColor Filter, and TCL Advanced Color Purity Algorithm.
The company says its TV is capable of achieving a brightness up to 10,000 nits which, if accurate, would make it one of the brightest TVs ever made. The TV uses a MiniLED backlight with the company’s Halo Control system which is designed to reduce backlight haloing artifacts on high contrast images.
The screen features a WHVA 2.0 Ultra Panel with an anti-reflective edge-to-edge ZeroBorder which minimizes the visible bezel. In addition, the TV supports Dolby Vision IQ, HDR10+, HDR10 and HLG includes an audio system by Bang and Olufsen and support for Dolby Atmos.
I had a brief hands-on with the X11L, and saw it in Standard mode against a number of other MicroLED televisions, and the TCL looked vivid and had the high-contrast performance I’d seen with the QM8 and QM9. Yet, when I set the TV to the usual Filmmaker Mode the colors were much-less saturated, and so I can’t (yet) speak to the TV’s accuracy or ability to hit any particular color standard.
The X11L will be available in 75-inch 85 inch and 98 inch sizes this month.
