UPDATE: TCL has just unveiled its highly anticipated X11L flagship TV at CES 2026, marking a significant shift in the television landscape. Unlike previous models, UK buyers will have the opportunity to purchase this innovative TV, which features a stunning design and remarkable performance.
The X11L is set to retail in the US for prices ranging from $7,000 for the 75-inch screen to a staggering $10,000 for the 98-inch model. This launch is particularly noteworthy as TCL sticks with Quantum Dot technology rather than following the industry’s trend toward RGB Mini LED displays. TCL asserts that its QLED technology remains superior, especially with the introduction of their new Super QLED innovation.
At just 2 centimeters deep, the X11L boasts a sleek, monolithic design that is significantly slimmer than its RGB Mini LED counterparts. The premium build quality is complemented by a stylish dark metallic finish and a remarkably slim bezel, making it a standout option for wall mounting or elegant display.
The X11L is equipped with groundbreaking hardware, including the ability to achieve an astonishing peak brightness of 10,000 nits and a whopping 20,736 dimming zones—the highest ever seen in a consumer TV. TCL claims that this technology allows for a wider color gamut, enhanced brightness, and immunity to color crosstalk issues commonly found in RGB Mini LED displays.
TCL’s new Pro AiPQ processor ensures even standard content can leverage the TV’s capabilities, while support for Google TV, Dolby Vision IQ, and HDR10+ provides a comprehensive entertainment experience. Additionally, the integrated Bang & Olufsen soundbar enhances audio quality, delivering a rich, immersive sound that complements the stunning visuals.
During a hands-on session with the X11L, early impressions revealed exceptional contrast performance, showcasing the TV’s ability to display inky blacks alongside vibrant highlights. This level of brightness is unmatched, even by high-end displays like the Hisense 116UX, which maxes out at 8,500 nits.
The integration of advanced sound technology, including left, center, and right channels, along with additional speakers for deeper bass, creates an auditory experience that is both detailed and powerful. Users seeking an extra bass boost can opt for TCL’s new Z100-SW wireless subwoofer, enhancing the cinematic experience.
As the world eagerly anticipates more details on pricing for UK consumers, the X11L is positioned to redefine expectations for high-end televisions in 2026. The innovative use of Super QLED technology suggests a competitive edge over rival brands, and TCL’s commitment to quality is more apparent than ever.
Stay tuned for further updates as the launch of the X11L unfolds, and prepare to experience television like never before.
