TCL’s QM9K Is the First Google TV With Gemini and Presence Sensing, U.S. Sales Begin This Month

The set pairs flagship QD‑Mini LED performance with Gemini voice control plus mmWave presence sensing to highlight convenience versus control.

Overview

  • The QM9K lineup spans 65, 75, 85 and 98 inches with 4K QD‑Mini LED panels at up to 144Hz, peak brightness up to 6,500 nits and 6,000 local‑dimming zones.
  • Gemini enables always‑ready “Hey Google” queries for content and general questions, with TCL saying conversations aren’t logged and memory resets after 10 minutes.
  • A built‑in mmWave sensor detects nearby people to wake the screen to a screensaver, with user‑tunable detection radius and delay settings.
  • Each model supports Dolby Vision IQ, HDR10+/HLG and includes Bang & Olufsen‑tuned audio plus four HDMI ports with eARC.
  • TCL says U.S. sales start later this month at Best Buy with pricing to be announced, and Gizmodo reports the cheaper QM8K will get Gemini in a later update.
