The 2023 TCL TVs are gaming powerhouses with up to 240Hz variable refresh rate (VRR). The lineup features the new Game Accelerator for an enhanced gaming experience. The TCL 2023 TVs reflect a marked design departure from their predecessors with new branding.
TCL has focused on two new lines – the high-end Q-series and the value-focused S-series. This also means that TCL has ditched the branding strategy for the 4-, 5-, and 6-series. There are a total of six models within the TCL Q- and S-series TVs.
The QM8 model has a bezel-less design and delivers more peak brightness than any of TCL’s 2022 models. It will be available in two sizes – 65 inches and 98 inches, and the larger model has up to 2,300 dimming zones. A built-in subwoofer delivers powerful audio for the QM8 which also supports Wi-Fi 6 connectivity. The TCL QM8 also has a height-adjustable stand.
Still, the TCL QM8 shares some core features with the Q7 including a native 120Hz panel. The Game Accelerator can boost the VRR to 240Hz but at half of its vertical resolution. Therefore, full 4K viewing can be achieved only at the native 120Hz rate. The QM7 has AMD FreeSync Pro and IMAX Enhance certifications. Both Q-models have voice controls via integrated far-field microphones and run Google TV OS. The QM7 and QM8 both support Dolby Vision IQ.
The TCL S-series offers smart TV functionality at budget pricing. The smart and versatile S3 has 1080p FHD resolution and HDR compatibility. The TCL S3 will be available in 32-inch and 43-inch options. The S3 can be used as a PC monitor while the S4 offers 4K UHD resolution and supports Dolby Vision HDR. The TCL S4 also features Dolby Atmos audio and MEMC functionality. The S4 has two screen sizes – 43 and 85 inches. At the lower end of the S-series spectrum is the extremely budget S2 with 720p resolution.
The new TCL Q- and S-series 2023 TVs will start shipping anytime soon. They will compete with their predecessors which are still in the market. TCL’s strategy with its new lineup of TVs is to serve a wider base and demography. Pricing details are lacking for the new TVs at this time.
