So this is the next salvo here.

And this was an announcement from TCL.

They're saying, okay, we don't have per pixel lighting control, but everyone else is putting colored backlights behind their pixels.

That's bad.

And let me tell you why it's bad.

And we don't have to do that.

We're going to stick with a single color backlight.

Like we always had broken up into little regions, but now our quantum dots about our quantum dots are the things that take like the blue backlight and changed into a red, green, and blue.

Um,

Their quantum dots do that conversion better, allowing more of the color through, which is how I think this is the first I've ever seen of a quantum dot LCD TV.

They can do 100 percent of 2020 BT 2020.

Like historically, I think the only TVs that have come close to that are the QD OLEDs because they don't have the white subpixel.

And now maybe the tandem OLEDs from LG that don't have the white subpixel diluting your colors.

they're trying to go for you know color volume can we cover this entire volume of this color space and the color spaces are always shown as like a 3d thing because you've got rg and b in the three different dimensions so it's like this 3d shape filled with color and bt 220 is very big and inside that is p3 and way inside that is srgb or now rec uh rec 707 or whatever the t the plain standard ftb one anyway so

They're saying, we got these super quantum dots.

They're better than your quantum dots.

We don't have the weird colored backlight thing.

We don't have to do the processing to figure out what the hell color to make our RGB backlights.

We don't have the color bleed through.

We still do have the blooming thing because, you know, we don't have perfect lighting control, but whatever.
