TCL launches the only QLED Android TV in the world with unrivalled JBL sound

X2 Xess series available in 65- and 55-inch models

Berlin - August 31, 2017

TCL, the world’s third largest TV manufacturer, today announced the launch of its new XESS Series flagship product: the X2 is the only QLED Android TV in the world with unrivalled JBL sound.

The XESS Series X2 is an exceptional TV from every angle, whether thanks to its 360° design or the visual experience it provides. With virtually no frame, its stripped-down design reveals a very high quality picture. Thanks to Quantum Dot technology, TCL QLED enables the X2 to display richer colors in stunning detail, with contrast optimized with Ultra Micro Dimming. The result is a cinema-quality picture with stunning colors and subtle variations from full light to complete darkness, thanks to the reactions of its 10-bit screen. The X2 XESS Series benefits from HDR Pro technology, which produces dazzling pictures and delivers 103% DCI-P3 color volume with precise light and dark shade reproduction. Lastly, the JBL 3-way, front-firing speaker system provides high-quality sound immersion, while the voice control promises a new and exciting experience. Thanks to voice command, the X2 provides access to the full richness of the Android TV 6.0 (and soon 7.0) platform's content just by using smartphones, and makes it possible to enjoy Netflix and YouTube in 4K HDR quality.

Xess series X2: an innovative range featuring TCL QLED TV

Thanks to Quantum Dot technology, the X2 can display rich colors and produce images bursting with detail. With sound designed by JBL -- one of the leading specialists in the field – as well as an elegant design and the full richness of Android TV, the X2 creates a truly immersive visual experience.

A cinema-quality picture, thanks to revolutionary Quantum Dot display technology.

Quantum Dots (QD) are inorganic nano crystals, with unique optoelectronic properties. When they are hit by a blue light source, they emit very stable, pure and precise primary colors – green and red (depending on the size of QDs). Thanks to the QDs’ uniqueness, the TV can reproduce all of the colors that cinema cameras can capture. They make it possible to deliver 103% of DCI-P3 color volume – a level of color reproduction and a level of detail and depth which are unrivalled by any LED or OLED TV.

In addition, supported by 800 nits (HDR800) of maximum brightness, the HDR Pro provides pictures with stunning details and reproduces light and dark shades precisely to let viewers take full advantage of all HDR content.

A studio sound experience with the JBL system

The JBL system provides an experience close to being in the cinema, making the X2 XESS Series a home cinema in itself. Sound reproduction is flawless and dialogue is delivered perfectly, regardless of the source of music or films. The X2 provides sound quality comparable to a hifi-system. TCL uses DTS Premium Sound, an advanced audio post-processing technology.

Entertainment and smart experience with the latest Android version

Powered by the Android M System, the X2 XESS Series offers consumers a smart experience through a wide range of content and features. The Android TV 6.0 smart system takes full charge of Google Play Store, Chromecast and Voice search, and provides consumers with all the richness of a connected life. Google Play Store provides content, apps and super games so consumers can watch films, listen to music or to play Android games on a big screen. With useful features such as voice search and Chromecast, Android TV makes the TV smarter and easier to use.

Android TV 7.0 will soon be released. TCL’s Android TVs are compatible and prepared for the upgrade, which will provide several improvements in task management, multi-user accounts and UI refinements.

Smart as well as elegant with a frame-free design

With bezel-less display technology, the X2 XESS Series blends in naturally with all environments. The screen’s edges won't get in the way of a film. With a design philosophy aiming to achieve a balance between Nordic simplicity and Oriental refinement, the X2 combines advanced technology and functionality with elegance and noble materials. The TV’s 7.9mm thickness and “super slim” edgeless display also make it stand out. An elegant and sleek stand and smart cube are also featured, complementing a model which offers consumers numerous practical features.

Thanks to an “ultra Slim Design” the X2 XESS Series combines function with modernity in a supreme demonstration of elegance: high-precision finish, high-quality polish, noble materials and a 360° design to hide all cables. *Suggested retail prices, product features and specifications vary in different markets
