CORONA, Calif. – Today TCL, one of the world's best-selling consumer electronics brands and a leading display technology innovator, announced pricing and availability of the first TCL TV lines with Google TV across its premium and high-performance 5- and 6-Series.

TCL's newest series featuring Google TV enhances its portfolio of award-winning televisions, providing smart software options that allow consumers to enjoy more of the content they want. TCL TVs featuring Google TV will continue TCL's winning formula of high-performance display technologies like QLED wide color and mini-LED backlighting in an accessible package for mainstream TV shoppers, paired with innovative smart platforms like the personalized experience of Google TV.

TCL televisions with Google TV deliver a content-first interface that is built around the consumer and what they love to watch. Designed to help users easily browse and discover new favorites with recommendations based on previous watch history, saved content and what's trending, Google TV brings effortless entertainment by aggregating movies and shows across all services – in one place – on TCL's premium 5-Series and powerful 6-Series models. Featuring the intuitive Google TV smart platform and hands-free voice control for the first time, the 5- and 6-Series TCL TVs can now benefit from Google Assistant to search through 700,000+ movies as well as TV shows, answer questions, manage smart home devices, and more.

Critically acclaimed as TV lines that deliver premium technology, sleek design, and accessible home theater performance, the 5- and 6-Series continue to deliver unmatched contrast technology, deep color saturation with QLED quantum dot nanocrystals and powerful clarity with Dolby Vision HDR.

With the addition of Google TV, TCL's latest offerings will also come with notable features like the For You tab where users will find new content based on their interests, across their streaming services; the Watchlist to fine tune recommendations by clicking on content and saving to watch later, even from a browser or phone; and the Live TV integrated channel guide where recommendations for streaming content are visible alongside live program listings. In addition, quickly finding TV shows and movies by title, genre, and even actors, is made possible by pressing the dedicated Google Assistant button on the remote and saying the command; or simply make Google TV the hub of any smart home by easily controlling your connected devices. Integrated directly into every TCL 5- and 6-Series with Google TV is also a high-performance far-field mic array so "OK Google" is easily understood no matter where someone is in the room.
