CES 2022: TCL promises smoother MiniLED TVs for gaming –

The CES Las Vegas Annual Grand Mass begins at TCL with a declaration of intent. The Chinese giant, pioneer of MiniLED, has reiterated its commitment to these LCD televisions equipped with tiny LEDs and promised a more efficient 2022 harvest, especially in video games thanks to a panel refresh rate increased to 144 Hz.

Miniaturizing LEDs is a good thing, but they still need to be finely and precisely controlled. That is why some TCL 2022 televisions will have a backlight divided into more than 1000 dimming zones, to improve the contrast and especially for less blooming. This is an annoying halo of light that surrounds bright elements displayed on a black background on LCD screens (especially Full LED backlit televisions).

Beyond the higher refresh rate, TCL focused during its conference on different functions for video games, such as support for the Google Stadia cloud gaming service. The brand also mentioned a new video game download portal called Game Center, as well as a menu and a specific configuration bar for video games like the one we already find in Samsung or LG.

The other novelty that caught our attention is the arrival of a mode that allows dividing the screen into two parts to be able to play a game while another member of the family watches a football game, for example, a function already present in a handful of Samsung televisions. .

Finally, the televisions will once again be powered by Google TV and will include a health platform and an application to control connected objects in the home. As usual, TCL will present details of its range later this year.
