Our take on the TCL 98” Class X11L Series QLED SQD-Mini LED TV Smart Google TV with Gemini (New 2026)

The TCL X11L is a 98-inch 4K Google TV using SQD-Mini LED backlighting with up to 20,000 dimming zones and a claimed 10,000-nit peak, aimed at buyers who want a wall-sized, bright, high-contrast picture for movies and sports. It pairs a 144Hz native panel with Motion Rate 480, HDR10+, HDR10 and HLG support, and a Bang & Olufsen-tuned speaker system with built-in subwoofers and a center channel. Against other 98-inch Mini LED sets, its zone count and brightness claims are the headline, while its size, weight and power draw make it a room-defining purchase rather than a casual upgrade. It suits dedicated home theater rooms and bright living rooms; buyers wanting a simpler, lighter big-screen option may find it more TV than they need.

About the TCL 98” Class X11L Series QLED SQD-Mini LED TV Smart Google TV with Gemini (New 2026)

The TCL X11L Series delivers the ultimate performance for cinematic viewing, fast-action movies, and live sports. Experience an unprecedented visual spectacle with TCL’s Deep Color System, which utilizes Super Quantum Crystals (Super QLED), an UltraColor Filter, and an Advanced Color Purity Algorithm to produce more vivid colors and deeply nuanced shades with exceptional accuracy and realism. Blooming is virtually eliminated by the proprietary TCL Halo Control System, an advanced architecture featuring up to 20,000 Precise Dimming Zones and an astonishing 10,000 nits peak brightness, guaranteeing pure black levels and a brilliant, "Halo-Free" image in virtually any room lighting environment. This stunning clarity is optimized scene-by-scene by the advanced TSR AI Processor, which uses machine learning to deliver an unrivaled cinematic experience, complemented by a 144Hz native panel refresh rate and Motion Rate 480 for best-in-class motion clarity. Visually, the TV blends seamlessly into any living room, featuring the WHVA 2.0 Ultra Panel with ZeroBorder™ for wide viewing angles and an UltraThin Depth of less than 0.8”. Finally, to match the premium picture, the X11L features Expandable Home Theater with Audio by Bang & Olufsen, an integrated spatial sound system complete with built-in subwoofers, surround channels, and a center channel, providing a truly immersive Dolby Atmos experience.

Questions and answers

Is the TCL X11L good for bright rooms?
Yes. Its Mini LED backlight is rated up to 10,000 nits peak, so it holds up in daylight far better than OLED sets of the same size. The anti-blooming dimming helps keep blacks dark even with the backlight pushed hard.
How does it compare with TCL's older XL series?
The X11L moves to SQD-Mini LED with far more dimming zones, higher brightness and a 144Hz panel, plus Bang & Olufsen audio. It is a bigger step up in picture and sound than a typical year-over-year refresh.
Does it support 144Hz gaming?
The panel is 144Hz native with Motion Rate 480, so it can take high-frame-rate console and PC input. Check that your HDMI source and cable support the mode you want.
What is in the box?
You get the TV, its stand feet, a remote and the power cable. A wall mount is not included, and at this size a heavy-duty mount rated for the set's weight is required.
Do I need a soundbar?
Probably not for everyday viewing. The built-in system has subwoofers, surround channels and a center channel for Dolby Atmos, though a separate surround setup will still beat it for serious movie nights.
Is a 98-inch TV too big for a normal living room?
It depends on seating distance and wall space. At 98 inches it works best with roughly 10 feet or more of viewing distance and a wall wide enough to fit it; measure before buying.
