Gemini takes control of the television. TCL receives a new feature first.

Calendar 6/12/2026

Changing the brightness of the picture or improving the sound on a television often requires clicking through several levels of settings. Google wants to simplify this by integrating Gemini with Google TV. The new features allow users to issue voice commands describing the problem, and the artificial intelligence automatically selects the appropriate settings. For starters, the solution is exclusively available on TCL televisions.

Just say what hinders your viewing experience

The new capabilities of Gemini allow you to control many TV settings without the need to navigate through the menu. Users can request changes to brightness, contrast, volume, or picture mode using simple voice commands. Interestingly, there is no need to know specific settings. Instead, you can simply say that the screen is too dark or that the dialogues are hard to hear. Gemini will analyse the issue and automatically adjust the appropriate parameters. The assistant can also optimise settings for the content currently being watched or quickly take the user to the right system menu. This small change can significantly speed up everyday TV operation.

TCL with an exclusive time-limited feature

Google has announced that for the first 60 days, the feature will be available exclusively on selected TCL televisions using Google TV. The update is currently being rolled out to models from the 2025 and 2026 ranges available in the American market. The list of compatible devices includes, among others, the QM9K, QM7L, RM7L, X11L, QM9L, QM8L, and RM9L series. It is not yet known whether older TCL models will also gain access to the new Gemini capabilities at a later date. The launch of the feature coincides with preparations for the FIFA World Cup 2026. TCL and Google are also launching a special information centre for the World Cup, where users can find match schedules, results, highlights, and video materials from YouTube.

Google is consistently developing the integration of Gemini with everyday devices. This time, artificial intelligence is reaching televisions, allowing convenient control of image and sound through natural voice commands. For the first two months, this novelty will only be available to owners of selected TCL televisions, but later the feature should also appear with other manufacturers using Google TV.
