TCL has established a new benchmark with its latest 4K panel, breaking the refresh rate barrier and topping it off at a whopping 1000 Hz. The news comes from Blur Busters, who attended the DisplayWeek 2024 conference in California. Apart from all the innovative tech presented, the one thing that caught their eye was the displays showcased by TCL CSOT. The company decided to break the refresh rate threshold with their newest 4K 1000 Hz panel. Details on the display are subtle since we haven't seen an official press release or statement announcing the technology. Still, TCL revealed it at DisplayWeek, which was exciting to witness. 4K 1000Hz being shown off at #DisplayWeek2024 by TCL CSOT pic.twitter.com/xc2qsYocxX — Blur Busters (@BlurBusters) May 15, 2024 Here are the technologies TCL unveiled, according to the details shared by event holders: At SID Display Week 2024, TCL CSOT is showcasing a range of advanced display technologies under the theme "For Better Life, For Better Future" This year, they are presenting around 40 innovative display technologies aimed at promoting sustainability, health, and connectivity. The TCL CSOT booth is organized into ten technology areas, including HVA, HFS, MLED, MLCD, FMM OLED, and IJP OLED, each highlighting their latest advancements. Attendees can explore products such as the 85" UD w-HVA Pro, the world's first 7.85″ Tandem Trifold Screen, and 14″ 2.8K Inkjet Printing Hybrid OLED Display. Other highlights include the world's Highest CR 4000:1 HFS MNT, the world's Highest Resolution 16″ 8K Laptop Display, and Ln-Oxide 14" MUX 1:3 Display. TCL CSOT will also showcase 7.85″ Under Screen Face Auth Display, the world's first 57″ 6.9mm Thickness MLED MNT, and the world's first 4K Highest Refresh Rate 1000Hz MNT. One of the standout innovations is TCL CSOT's 14″ 2.8K Inkjet Printing Hybrid OLED Display. This display, which represents the first application of IJP OLED technology in the notebook segment, won the AWE Award at AWE2024. The IJP OLED display offers a wider color gamut, lower power consumption, and improved reliability, marking a significant milestone in display technology. Expanding on the 1000 Hz ideology, achieving the refresh rate in displays is theoretically possible, as NVIDIA's Ultra Low Motion Blur 2 (ULMB 2) technology can deliver effective motion clarity of over 1,000, according to the company, so on a software level, it isn't an issue. However, when talking about things from the hardware side, we haven't seen any 1000 Hz display in the markets until now, and it's none other than TCL that is introducing the standard, with a 4K resolution display alongside. However, details are still slim regarding the display, so we'll have to wait and see what TCL has in stores for its consumers. Regardless, it will be interesting to see whether modern GPUs can achieve the 4K 1000 Hz standard at all, especially in modern AAA titles. If you lower the resolutions down to 1080p with the latest GPUs, achieving a consistent 1000 Hz display might be possible, but considering the general adoption, it's still far away. But for eSports gamers, you can get over 1000 FPS, especially in titles such as Counter Strike 2 which delivers over 1300 FPS with the latest high-end hardware.TCL's Newest Display Innovation Aims At Talking Hardcore Gaming To a Whole New Level, Ensuring Utter Clarity With 1000 Hz
