TCL has unveiled the Thunderbird 100MAX 2024 TV. The giant-screen smart TV comes with a 540-zone backlight system and a no-ads setup. The no-ads arrangement means that the new TV’s factory setting omits ads. The TCL Thunderbird 100MAX 2024 has a 100-inch display and joins a growing list of giant-screen TVs released recently.

The TCL Thunderbird 100MAX is focused on cost effectiveness although in comparison, it is more expensive than the Xiaomi Redmi MAX 100 2025 model recently released. It however comes with significant improvement in its configuration compared with the Redmi model. The TV’s 100-inch screen is capable of 4K resolution and 144Hz refresh rate.
