TCL is expanding its premium TV lineup with its first RGB-Mini LED models, the RM9L series, available for pre-order starting at $8,000. The company is also rolling out additional SQD-Mini LED options across multiple price points.

TCL introduced the RM9L RGB-Mini LED TV following its flagship X11L SQD-Mini LED launch at CES 2026. The new RGB model marks the company's entry into RGB-Mini LED technology, a step up from its existing SQD-Mini LED panels. The TCL QM8L SQD-Mini LED TV is now available in all sizes, while the QM7L SQD-Mini LED models are open for pre-order. Both series use TCL's "Super Quantum Dot" technology, an advancement in the company's Mini LED display approach. The expansion reflects TCL's strategy to populate the premium TV segment with multiple Mini LED variants at different price points. SQD-Mini LED represents the company's latest iteration of the technology, building on its previous Mini LED implementations. Availability and exact pricing for the QM7L and RM9L models beyond the $8,000 entry point have not been fully detailed.
