Consumer electronics brand and leading technology company TCL has unveiled its latest television release within its 6-Series TCL Roku TV line. What makes this release so special is that the company has partnered with world-class audio and video certification and technology company, THX.
TCL and THX have announced that the 6-Series TCL Roku TV will feature the all-new THX Certified Game Mode, which was created to allow “games to be enjoyed the way they were intended by the creators with rich, vibrant colors and dramatic contrast in crisp 4K HDR resolution.”
Being THX-certified is a pretty big deal, as products need specific requirements to meet the standards that the world-renown company is known for. As such, the 6-Series TCL Roku TV will come with the following features to elevate the gamer’s gameplay experience.
Color - THX Certified Game Mode ensures high-quality and vibrant colors
Speed - THX Certified Game Mode requires a refresh rate of 120 Hz or higher, allowing for smoother motion without blur
Latency - While TCL TVs already feature low latency, THX Certified Game Mode ensures that lag is reduced even further by turning off any unnecessary video processing
Rise Time - THX Certified Game Mode enhances dark-to-light rise time transitions during fast-paced gameplay (though you’re horror games will likely not be any less scary)
Clarity - Judder and smear reduction improve the video’s crispness, while black frame insertion or backlight scanning keep moving objects looking as clear as day
Smart - Possibly the most important quality of life feature, “THX Certified Game Mode will automatically switch to THX Game Mode with compatible consoles and PCs.”
“TCL is proud to be the first to launch televisions with a dedicated THX Certified Game Mode setting, as we’re always working toward elevating the home entertainment experience through new technology and innovations. By teaming up with pioneers like THX, who have a history in producing premium cinema-quality audio and visuals, we can ensure that our customers enjoy more by not only getting the best possible performance when watching the latest blockbusters but also now with the THX Certified Game Mode when playing their favorite video games,” stated Senior Vice President of TCL, Chris Larson, in a press release. “Revolutionizing big-screen gaming with THX as a partner allows TCL to continue raising the bar with new products that take your game to the next level, and we’re excited to bring this powerful TV series to market this summer.”
It’s hard to imagine that the new 6-Series TCL Roku TV will be anything short of spectacular. THX-certified products go through more than 400 rigorous tests to ensure the product is fit to don the THX-certified badge of honor. THX’s recent partnership with Razer resulted in an amazing pair of headphones, so the 6-Series TCL Roku TV will undoubtedly be a solid option for gamers looking to get the most out of their PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X - when those consoles release - or high-end PC.
