  • IFA: 8K round up

    BOE the Chinese panel and display maker that has been showing off prototype 98" and 110" 8K displays at mainly Asian tradeshows in the past year, has won an IFA innovation award for its 65" 8K Display.

    BOE's 65 inch 8K display won this year's "UHD Display Technology Gold Award" of "2016 IFA Product Technical Innovation Award", which organized by International Data Group (IDG) and German Industry & Commerce Ltd.

    Since initially launched this May at 2016 SID Display Week, BOE's 65 inch 8K display has aroused great attention. Thinnest worldwide, it applies BOE back-lighting techniques, at just 3.8mm thin. Its exterior design also carries BOE's style with an enjoyable frame-free briefness.

    It is said that BOE's 65 inch 8K display has been sent to related terminal clients for testing, which might make 8K display available to consumers this year.


    TCL is demonstrating its efforts to gain a foothold in the high-end TV segment. Among its high-end TV, the 65” 8K UHD Curved TV is definitely another eye-catcher, featuring a panel produced by subsidiary China Star Optoelectronics Technology (CSOT) which offers eight times the pixel count of full HD resolution and active 3D function. This 8K prototype will seriously blast the eyeballs of visitors because it displays an extra level of razor sharp detail that is way better than a 4K screen.

    Commenting on TCL’s overseas strategy, Tomson Li, Chairman and CEO of TCL Corporation, said, “We have been investing heavily in innovation to create better TV products. We believe innovation will be rewarding. It will bring us to a new horizon and our users a better experience. We welcome all visitors to experience our innovative offerings at IFA.”

    As the LCD TVs have been pursuing larger sizes and higher resolutions, high-end displays play an essential role for TCL to obtain a competitive edge in the LCD TV industry. By actively making strategical vertical integration with upstream display supplier CSOT, TCL has been able to gain a technological advantage and expand its global presence in the high-end LCD display market.

    CSOT currently owns two Gen 8.5 and one Gen 6 LCD production lines, which can produce panels as large as 55". On August 29, just days before IFA 2016, TCL announced that the company, its subsidiary CSOT and the local government will jointly invest RMB 46.5 billion (US$ 6.9 billion) to build a production line for Gen 11 TFT-LCD and AMOLED displays, which will start mass production in July 2019. The production line, when completed, will be able to produce 43", 65", 70" (21:9), 75" LCD displays, ultra-large public displays as well as OLED displays, and enable TCL to enhance its portfolio in terms of large-sized LCD displays and help boost the company’s comprehensive competitiveness in LCD display business.
