As Honglitronics described, TCL’s X12 8K Mini LED TV “Starlight” is the first smart TV that adopts the OD ZERO Mini LED backlighting technology. The TV features 96,000 LED chips, 1,920 physical local dimming zones, 3,000 nits of peak brightness at maximum, and an ultra-high one-million-to-one contrast ratio.
Reportedly, Honglitronics signed a partnership with TCL to co-develop Mini LED backlights in 2018. Since then, the company has also partnered with other top Chinese companies (i.e., Konka, CSOT, Tianma, BOE, HKC, and ThundeRobot) to develop a series of Mini LED displays and backlight products.
