The display's construction involves 288 individual blocks, assembled in a 24 by 12 configuration. These blocks are magnetically connected, making the assembly process relatively straightforward, though some technical expertise is required to ensure the panels fit seamlessly. This microLED panel represents TCL's most advanced product of the year and is currently available in the Chinese market, with plans to expand globally soon.
Regarding the price, the display costs approximately 800,000 Chinese Yuan, translating to around $100,000. Although this is a high-end product with a significant price tag, it reflects the cutting-edge technology and premium features offered by the panel. When asked about future price reductions, Jason mentioned that as production scales up and demand increases, the cost might decrease, but no specific timeline was provided.
Manufactured in China, the microLED panels are the result of collaboration between TCL and their suppliers. The display features a pixel pitch of 0.93 millimeters, making the individual pixels nearly invisible even when viewed up close. This fine pixel pitch ensures a smooth and continuous image without any visible separation between the blocks.
The ideal viewing distance for this display is between 3 to 5 meters, allowing viewers to fully appreciate the high brightness and detailed resolution. When questioned about the possibility of an 8K version of this large display, Jason indicated that while the technology is available, the cost and complexity of achieving such a fine dot pitch on a large scale remain challenging. Ensuring a high yield without dead pixels is crucial, as any imperfections can significantly affect the viewing experience.
The panel comprises over 24 million LED chips, contributing to its exceptional visual performance. With a lifespan exceeding 10,000 hours, the display is designed to provide long-lasting quality. Although it is unclear how many units have been sold so far, there is interest and some installations may already be in place in China.
In summary, TCL's 163-inch 4K microLED display is a remarkable achievement in display technology, offering stunning brightness, contrast, and resolution. Its modular design makes it easier to install despite its massive size, and the potential for future price reductions could make it more accessible over time. As TCL continues to innovate and expand its market, this microLED panel stands as a testament to their commitment to advancing display technology.
