Product Details

 

 

Massive-Scale HDR with Micro-Zone Precision

TCL’s QM8K 85" platform combines QLED color science and a high-density QD-Mini LED matrix to deliver pixel-level light shaping across Precise Dimming L2 (≈LD3800). The result is deep, inky blacks and explosive HDR highlights (up to 5000 nits) with dramatically reduced haloing. CrystGlow WHVA optics minimize reflections and preserve viewing uniformity across wide angles while AiPQ Pro intelligently adapts tone, color and motion at the pixel level for consistent, reference-quality images.

Precise Dimming L2

Up to thousands of micro dimming zones and Micro-OD optics combined with All-domain Halo Control reduce blooming and preserve localized contrast.

HDR 5000 Nits

Extraordinary peak luminance for true specular highlights and superior performance in ambient light conditions.

AiPQ Pro & MEMC

Pixel-aware processing, adaptive tone mapping and MEMC frame insertion deliver pristine detail and fluid motion for film and gaming.
