JAKARTA \u2014 Advances in television technology have given consumers a\nrange of options, from Quantum Dot Light Emitting Diode (QLED) to Mini\nLED. With display-technology terms increasingly common in the market,\nunderstanding lighting systems and colour reproduction is important when\nchoosing image quality suited to individual needs.<\/p>\n
One factor affecting a television\u2019s visual quality is its ability to\ncontrol lighting precisely. This helps produce better contrast, preserve\nimage detail and reduce blooming\u2014the glow around bright objects shown\nagainst a dark background.<\/p>\n
TCL Indonesia Chief Executive Evan Tang said developments in display\ntechnology were directed at improving colour reproduction, lighting\ncontrol and image detail. He said the evolution of television technology\nfrom QLED to SQD-Mini LED was part of efforts to enhance the viewing\nexperience.<\/p>\n
\u201cTCL remains committed to delivering television technology\ninnovations that not only prioritise visual quality but also provide an\nincreasingly immersive viewing experience,\u201d Evan said.<\/p>\n
In television technology, QLED uses Quantum Dot to produce a wider\nrange of colours. TCL says its QLED technology can generate more than\none billion colours, with coverage of up to 93 per cent of DCI-P3.<\/p>\n
Mini LED, meanwhile, uses smaller backlights than conventional LED\ntechnology. This allows lighting to be controlled across multiple zones\nbehind the screen, with brightness adjusted to suit the image being\ndisplayed.<\/p>\n
The ability to control these lighting zones is one factor that\ndistinguishes Mini LED television performance. If lighting control is\nnot precise enough, light from bright objects can spread into nearby\ndark areas. This effect, known as blooming or the halo effect, can\nreduce image contrast and definition.<\/p>\n
TCL uses the term True Mini LED to emphasise the importance of\nlighting control, or Precise Dimming. With QD-Mini LED technology, the\ncompany combines Quantum Dot with independently controlled lighting\nzones to optimise contrast and preserve detail in both bright and dark\nscenes.<\/p>\n
The technology has since been developed into SQD-Mini LED. TCL says\nit is based on four aspects: Pure Colors, Stable Colors, Superior Light\nControl and Richer Details. These focus on colour purity and stability,\nlight control and sharper image detail.<\/p>\n
Consumers should nevertheless check the specifications of each\ntelevision model when comparing display technologies. Panel type, the\nnumber and capability of lighting zones, brightness levels and\ncolour-reproduction characteristics can all affect the resulting\nimage.<\/p>\n
To introduce the differences between these technologies, TCL\npartnered with Shopee to hold a product-experience workshop at Trinity\nTower in Jakarta in early October 2026. The event brought together more\nthan 100 content creators and affiliates, including technology\nenthusiasts.<\/p>\n
Through interactive demonstrations, participants were introduced to\ndevelopments in display technology, from QLED and QD-Mini LED to\nSQD-Mini LED. They also observed how lighting control affects contrast\nand helps reduce blooming in scenes with sharp differences in\nbrightness.<\/p>\n
Evan said display-technology development was not only about improving\nvisual quality, but also about the entertainment experience available to\nconsumers.<\/p>\n
\u201cThrough the evolution from QLED and QD-Mini LED to SQD-Mini LED, we\ncontinue to refine colour reproduction, more precise lighting control\nand richer image detail,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Through education about display technology, consumers are expected to\nunderstand that television quality is not determined solely by screen\nsize or resolution. Accurate colour, light control and the ability to\npreserve image detail are also considerations when choosing home\nentertainment equipment.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/understanding-the-differences-in-tv-display-technology-precise-dimming-is-a-key-factor-1793375543", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
