Google has rolled out new Gemini TV controls, with TCL as the exclusive launch partner, giving TCL TV owners access for the first 60 days before it opens to other Google TV brands. Instead of digging through settings menus, users can ask Gemini to adjust brightness, contrast, volume, and picture modes using voice commands, or describe problems in plain language like “the screen is too dark” or “I can’t hear the dialogue.” The rollout is live now across select 2025 and 2026 TCL Google TV models in the US, including the QM9K, QM7L, RM7L, X11L, QM9L, QM8L, and RM9L. It is unclear whether older TCL models like the QM6K, QM7K, or QM8K will receive the update later. The timing coincides with the FIFA World Cup kicking off this summer, and the company is also launching a dedicated World Cup Hub on Google TV with live match information, schedules, highlights, and YouTube content.
