At CES 2026, TCL CSOT rolled out a sweeping lineup of next‑generation display technologies under the banner "A Boundless Future for Displays." The showcase zeroed in on sharper image quality, eye comfort, energy efficiency, eco‑friendly materials, and an assertive use of AI — all tied together by the APEX philosophy that puts user comfort and sustainability at the center.
Among the headliners was a 98‑inch HVA Ultra Infinity View TV panel with independent RGB backlight control, more than 18,000 local‑dimming zones, and over 96% coverage of the BT.2020 color space. TCL CSOT also showcased the world's first automotive OLED screen with a sliding, multi‑curvilinear design: a 28‑inch display that extends from a 16‑inch format and is rated for more than 100,000 cycles.
The company put particular emphasis on eye protection. New additions included the world’s first OLED smartphone display with Natural Light certification, as well as a monitor using full‑spectrum backlighting that emulates natural daylight. According to TCL CSOT, these solutions noticeably ease eye strain during long work sessions or extended viewing.
On the sustainability front, TCL CSOT introduced the first PFAS‑free laptop display — avoiding the so‑called "forever chemicals." The company also presented a tablet OLED panel with zonal adaptive refresh from 1 to 120 Hz, designed to save up to 25% energy without sacrificing smooth motion.
For XR devices, the company demonstrated record pixel‑density screens, including a Real RGB G‑OLED at 1,512 PPI and a compact Micro LED display exceeding 5,000 PPI. Taken together, the CES 2026 announcements underscore a push toward AI integration, eco‑conscious design, and a human‑centered approach spanning TVs, cars, mobile devices, and XR platforms — a cohesive direction rather than a grab bag of novelties.
