TCL has officially unveiled the RM9L, its first RGB-Mini LED TV, signaling a serious push into the next phase of premium display technology.

Announced in New York, the RM9L positions itself as TCL’s most advanced Mini LED offering yet. It leans heavily into color performance, using dedicated red, green, and blue LEDs instead of traditional white backlighting. The result: more precise color reproduction and support for up to 100% BT2020 color space, a benchmark often associated with high-end cinematic displays.

At the core of the RM9L is TCL’s CSOT UltraColor Filter paired with a new 30-bit by 3 backlight controller system. Together, they form a 120-bit color system designed to deliver finer control across each RGB channel. TCL says this enables better shadow detail, improved uniform brightness, and more consistent color across massive screen sizes.

The TV also packs a CSOT WHVA 2.0 Ultra panel, enhanced halo control for local dimming, and over 3,800 dimming zones. Peak brightness can reach up to 6,000 nits, putting it among the brightest TVs announced so far. Powering everything is the TSR AI Pro processor, which handles scene-by-scene optimization across color, contrast, clarity, and motion.

Built for big-screen immersion

The RM9L is clearly designed for larger-than-life viewing. It supports a native 144Hz refresh rate, with Game Accelerator 288 VRR and four HDMI 2.1 ports for gaming setups. TCL is also leaning into audio, with built-in sound tuned by Bang & Olufsen and support for Dolby Atmos FlexConnect for expandable home theater setups.

On the smart side, the TV runs on Google TV with Gemini integration, adding AI-powered assistance and content discovery.

An upcoming OTA update will bring support for Dolby Vision 2 Max, which introduces features like Content Intelligence, a new Imagine Engine, and Authentic Motion. TCL says this update will improve HDR brightness while preserving the creator’s original intent through bi-directional tone mapping.

Subheading: Pricing and availability

The TCL RM9L series is now available for pre-order in ultra-large sizes:

• 85-inch – $7,999.99
• 98-inch – $9,999.99
• 115-inch – $29,999.99

With the RM9L, TCL is making a clear bet: bigger screens demand better color. And with RGB-Mini LED, it’s aiming to lead that shift.

Sony is expanding its home entertainment push with a new range of BRAVIA Theatre audio products and the BRAVIA 3 II TV. The lineup aims to make a full cinema-style experience more accessible. That’s true whether you’re starting with a soundbar or building a complete surround setup.

Soundbars designed to fill the room

Leading the audio lineup is the BRAVIA Theatre Bar 7, a compact yet powerful soundbar built with nine speaker units. It includes up-firing and side speakers. These work alongside Sony’s 360 Spatial Sound Mapping to create a wider, more immersive sound field from a single unit. Room calibration further optimizes audio based on your space. There are also optional subwoofers and rear speakers unlock deeper bass and fuller surround.

For a more accessible option, the BRAVIA Theatre Bar 5 offers a 3.1-channel setup with a wireless subwoofer. It focuses on delivering clear dialogue and strong bass, using S-Force PRO Front Surround and Vertical Surround Engine to simulate a three-dimensional listening experience.

Both soundbars support Dolby Atmos and DTS:X, integrate with compatible BRAVIA TVs for unified control, and can be managed via the BRAVIA Connect app.

Expanding the surround experience

Sony is also introducing a set of optional speakers designed to complete the home cinema setup. The BRAVIA Theatre Sub 9 and Sub 8 deliver deep, room-filling bass, with the Sub 9 featuring dual opposing drivers to reduce distortion. Notably, the lineup now supports dual subwoofer configurations for the first time.

Meanwhile, the BRAVIA Theatre Rear 9 adds height and depth to rear channels through its up-firing speaker. This helps create a more convincing surround environment when paired with compatible soundbars.

A bigger screen to match

Alongside the audio products, Sony is rolling out the BRAVIA 3 II, a mid-tier TV available in sizes up to 100 inches. Powered by the XR Processor and XR Triluminos Pro, it aims to deliver natural colors, strong contrast, and refined detail.

The TV supports Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos, and DTS:X, and is also positioned as a capable gaming display. It comes with 4K at 120Hz and four HDMI 2.1 ports. Sony is also introducing a new Inclusive Remote with improved button layout and a Remote Finder feature for easier accessibility.

In Singapore, the BRAVIA Theatre Bar 7 will be available starting May 2026. Suggested retail price is SGD 1,299. Meanwhile, the BRAVIA Theatre Bar 5 follows in June 2026 at SGD 599.
