Advanced Display Portfolio Showcases Pathfinding Innovations

The vision of APEX comes to life at DTC 2025 through a comprehensive portfolio of groundbreaking displays that set new industry standards, showcased in five key user experience advancements:

• The world's highest-res, single-chip, full-color Si-Micro LED Display (0.28") achieves an extremely high resolution of 1280×720 and an exceptional pixel density of 5131PPI, delivering a highly detailed and lifelike visual experience with exceptional brightness and perfect image clarity, virtually eliminating any pixelation. The display's self-emissive nature provides high brightness, high contrast and a wide color gamut in an ultra-compact form factor, enabling a "retina-grade" viewing experience for near-eye applications such as AR glasses and ultra-slim VR devices. With its miniaturized form factor, ultra-high resolution, and low power consumption, this product sets a high-standard benchmark for next-generation lightweight, high-performance displays solutions, marking a significant breakthrough in the micro-display application.
• The world's highest PPI Real RGB G-OLED Display (2.56") delivers 1,512 PPI with a native Real RGB resolution of 2560x2740, producing exceptionally detailed, grain-free image quality. Featuring a 1,000,000:1 high contrast ratio, a 120 Hz refresh rate and an 110% wide color gamut, the display leverages OLED's inherent advantages of microsecond-level response time, setting new standards for OLED XR devices while maintaining low power consumption. Its ultra-high-density circuit design also opens up possibilities for high-end consumer electronics and industrial applications.
• The world's highest image quality MLED Display (163") presents an extraordinary contrast ratio of 37,500:1 through a proprietary ultra-low-reflection encapsulation material. Combining industry-highest 24-bit color depth technology with a 144 Hz high refresh rate, the large-format display achieves impeccably smooth, lag-free performance while minimizing seam gaps and improving installation efficiency.
• The world's first Partitioned Frequency Division OLED Tablet Display (13.2") incorporates TCL CSOT's self-developed partition frequency division technology, enabling the screen to operate two or three partitions simultaneously. This support multiple use scenarios - such as web browsing, text reading, and movie watching – to run on the different areas of the screen at the same time. The display also supports adaptive refresh rates from 1 Hz to 120 Hz, dynamically adjusting to content demands to reduce power consumption by 15 – 25% while maintaining smooth motion, sharp detail, and lifelike visuals. With precisely uniform 1.7 mm bezels on all four sides and a 96% screen-to-body ratio, it delivers an immersive viewing experience and refined design symmetry.
• The world's first Real Stripe RGB OLED MB Display (5.65") achieves a breakthrough resolution of 390 PPI, with a visually equivalent diamond-like pixel arrangement reaching 490 PPI, surpassing current mainstream flagship devices. This technology ensures flawless rendering of fine text and delivers a more refined visual experience. The mobile display underscores TCL CSOT's capability to produce high-end IJP OLED products across small, medium, and large formats, marking the company's evolution from technology leadership to ecosystem leadership.

Dr. Xiaolin Yan, CTO of TCL Technology and TCL CSOT said, "With APEX, TCL CSOT is redefining the standard for premium display quality – showcased by five flagship products unveiled at DTC today. Through the development of a comprehensive technology matrix spanning OLED, LCD and MLED, we are enabling diverse applications across TVs, IT products, commercial displays, automotive interfaces, specialty screens, and emerging scenarios. This integrated approach empowers TCL CSOT to deliver industry-leading solutions that drive innovation across multiple sectors."

• Trumbull CCPP Grand Opening Ceremony held in Trumbull County, Ohio, on June 24, 2026.
• Hanwha Power secures U.S. combined cycle power plant equipment contract with an innovative Variable Frequency Drive Integrally Geared Centrifugal Compressor design.
• 9-year LTSA with subscription-based service model — Houston service center to anchor long-term U.S. aftermarket presence.

SEOUL, South Korea, June 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- On 24th of June 2026, the successful commissioning and opening ceremony for the Trumbull Energy Center Combined Cycle Gas Turbine Power Plant (CCGT) was held in Ohio, USA, marking the successful start-up of the 950MW facility. The ceremony brought together key project partners, including Korea Southern Power Co., Ltd. (KOSPO), Gemma Power Systems, Siemens Energy, Ohio state government officials, the Korean Consul General, and project financing lenders.

Originally developed to address the power gap from the retirement of aging coal-fired plants, the plant is expected to serve as a critical asset within the PJM (Pennsylvania-New Jersey-Maryland Interconnection) grid — the largest wholesale electricity market in the United States.

Building on hundreds of global installations, Hanwha Power successfully commissioned its first Fuel Gas Compressors (FGC) in the U.S by providing three units to the highly efficient CCGT power plant. These units feature Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) technology specifically engineered to ensure uninterrupted operation by automatically adjusting to the extreme seasonal pipeline pressure fluctuations common in the PJM region.

Beyond the equipment supply, Hanwha Power has also secured a 9-year Long-Term Service Agreement (LTSA), covering capital spare parts and maintenance services through three major overhaul cycles. Under the agreement, Hanwha Power's Houston service center will serve as the primary hub for on-site support and component refurbishment, ensuring comprehensive lifecycle management for the units. This long-term partnership is expected to serve as a cornerstone of Hanwha's expansion of its service footprint in the North American market.

Joo Mong Choi, The CEO of Trumbull Asset Management, stated, "The successful commissioning of the Trumbull Energy Center and the deployment of Hanwha Power's advanced compressors represent a significant milestone, showcasing the world-class reliability of Korean power generation technology in the U.S. market. As we contribute to the region's clean energy transition by supplying stable power to the PJM grid, we look forward to further expanding our footprint in the North American power sector through continued, strong partnerships with leading Korean companies."

"Securing both the equipment supply contract and a long-term service agreement for this project reflects the confidence our client has placed in Hanwha Power's technical and operational capabilities," said Prakash Nair, Hanwha Power's Chief Commercial Officer. "This project is a strong foundation for Hanwha Power's long-term presence in the U.S. power generation market — not only in equipment supply, but in service partnerships that last."

Meanwhile, Hanwha Power plans to further strengthen its supply of eco-friendly, high-efficiency power generation solutions and expand its service business across key markets, including North America, leveraging its accumulated technological expertise and operational experience in the global power equipment sector.
