In this video, we compare the TCL QM8L and the Hisense UR9 — two of the most advanced Mini-LED TVs pushing brightness, color, and gaming performance in 2026.
The TCL QM8L uses SQD Mini-LED technology, combining Mini-LED backlighting with quantum dot color for extremely bright HDR, wide color volume, strong local dimming, and high-end gaming features. TCL rates the QM8L up to 6,000 nits peak brightness, with the 75-inch model featuring 2,584 local dimming zones. It also includes TCL’s 26-bit backlight controller, Game Accelerator 288, HDMI 2.1, VRR, ALLM, FreeSync Premium Pro, and low-latency gaming features.
The Hisense UR9 takes a different approach with RGB Mini-LED technology. Instead of using a traditional blue Mini-LED backlight with color conversion, the UR9 uses separate red, green, and blue Mini-LED light sources. This helps deliver extremely wide color, with the UR9 measuring around 93% of the BT.2020 color space. Hisense rates the UR9 up to 5,000 nits peak brightness, and the 65-inch model includes 1,056 local dimming zones. It also features the Hi-View AI Engine RGB processor, native 180Hz refresh rate, FreeSync Premium Pro, HDMI 2.1, USB-C DisplayPort, and advanced gaming support.
Both TVs are built for big HDR impact, bright-room viewing, next-gen gaming, and high color performance. The TCL QM8L brings higher advertised brightness, more dimming zones on the 75-inch model, Game Accelerator 288, and very strong contrast control. The Hisense UR9 brings RGB Mini-LED, wider color volume, native 180Hz gaming, and a more experimental next-generation backlight system.
If you want the strongest local dimming and gaming speed, the TCL QM8L has a big advantage. If you want the most advanced color technology and RGB Mini-LED innovation, the Hisense UR9 is one of the most interesting TVs on the market.
