What is TCL OD Zero Display Technology?

TCL engineers have reduced “the optical distance (OD) between the Mini-LED backlight layer and the LCD display layer (diffuser plate) to as little as 0 mm. Thus, the name. To achieve this close construction, TCL has used micro-meter mini-LED active-matrix backlighting (not to be confused with micro-LED). The size of the mini LEDs has been shrunk and more of them are packed on the backlight layer. The local dimming zones, thus created, allows the brightness to be adjusted in real-time and also uniformly. The diffuser plate can be brought closer without worrying about any dark spots too.

What else? The TCL 6-series (model no. R648) also sports native 8K support, the proprietary AIPQ upscaling engine that will spruce up the lower resolution 4K content experience, and Roku operating system.
