  • Requires Google TV and MediaTek Pentonic 700 chip

TCL is rolling out an upgrade to older TVs that adds Dolby Vision Filmmaker Mode and wireless subwoofer support. It also fixes an irritating sound bug in the Disney+ app and delivers the usual performance improvements and bug fixes too.

As FlatpanelsHD reports, the upgrade is coming to 2023, 2024 and 2025 TCL Google TVs powered by MediaTek's Pentonic 700 chip and it's already began rolling out.

The firmware version number is v643 and it's an over-the-air update.

TCL is pretty good at keeping its existing TVs up to date; earlier this year it provided a firmware update that boosted the Android version from 12 to 14 and added support for HDMI 2.1 Quick Media Switching.
