TCL C8K specifications and prices in Europe
1 June 2025, 10:14:01
The TCL C8K Precise Dimming QD-Mini LED TVs have also been launched in Europe. This series is identical to the TCL QM8K series for the U.S. All four models are based on TCL CSOT's CrystGlow WHVA Panel with ZeroBorder. This new panel technology is paired with the picture accuracy of its Halo Control System, stunning HDR impact from up to 35% more dimming zones and up to 65% higher peak brightness than previous series, and Audio by Bang & Olufsen for exceptional sound quality.
- TCL 98C8K - specifications; EUR 3499
- TCL 85C8K - specifications; EUR 2499
- TCL 75C8K - specifications; EUR 2299
- TCL 65C8K - specifications; EUR 1599
The Halo Control System yields three key benefits including enhanced color accuracy, enhanced gray scale accuracy, as well as virtually no blooming, for more natural, stunning picture quality. The new system's Super High Energy LED Chip combines high brightness with increased light efficiency while a Super Condensed Micro Lens uses a narrower light path for more precise light control. Additionally, the new TCL Micro OD reduces optical distance between the backlight and diffuser plate, helping avoid light overlap for virtually no blooming or halo effect, to produce clear, sharp edges between bright whites and dark blacks.
TCL's enhanced QD-Mini LED backlight technology works in conjunction with a high contrast WHVA Panel to block out more of the light when the LCD closes for a better dark state, providing up to five times better native contrast. Furthermore, enhanced QLED technology combines a new Color Optimization Algorithm with more vibrant Quantum Crystals for significantly improved color accuracy.
Critical to achieve premium picture quality, processing also gets an upgrade in the TCL C8K with Zero-Delay Transient Response for virtually no lag between the input signal and backlight response, preventing after-image blur and maximizing specular highlights. The Halo Control System also adds a Bi-Directional 23-bit Backlight Controller, allowing the finest granular control of over 65,000 levels of brightness for each LED so gray scale accuracy is elevated. In addition, the system includes a Dynamic Light Algorithm (DLA) that intelligently optimizes the incoming video to render SDR signals at near HDR level, for consistently pristine picture quality regardless of the content metadata.
TCL has also added Audio by Bang & Olufsen, to match its more accurate picture with exceptional sound quality. Cosmetically, the C8K is enhanced with a thinner, flatter cabinet design for truly flush wall mounting, and an elegant pedestal stand for those that want to place it on their home theater furniture.
