Dolby Atmos FlexConnect to debut in TCL TVs first in 2024


Dolby Laboratories has introduced a new advancement in audio technology called Dolby Atmos FlexConnect. This innovation brings a richer and more immersive sound experience to televisions. The first to implement this technology is TCL, with the upcoming 2024 TV lineup.

Dolby Atmos FlexConnect: Seamless Sound Integration

Dolby Atmos FlexConnect is a feature that seamlessly connects a TV’s sound system with wireless speakers, enhancing the Dolby Atmos audio experience.

It adjusts the sound to fit the room and speaker arrangement, making every spot in the room sound great. To complement this, TCL will launch a series of wireless speakers designed to work with its new TVs, featuring Dolby Atmos FlexConnect.

Flexible Wireless Speaker Placement with Dolby Atmos FlexConnect

Dolby Atmos FlexConnect allows wireless speakers to be positioned freely within a room, removing the need for precise placement. This adaptability extends as new devices are integrated, enabling innovation for TCL and other manufacturers to create tailored device combinations.

This integration seamlessly merges accessory devices with TV speakers, resulting in exceptional audio performance that immerses users in a personalized Dolby Atmos sound experience at home.

Advantages of Dolby Atmos FlexConnect

Elevate Dolby Atmos experience: Enhance the already impressive Dolby Atmos experience by adding wireless accessory speakers to your Dolby Atmos-enabled TV.

Versatile speaker placement: Enjoy audio excellence regardless of where you place the speakers, optimizing room dimensions and furniture arrangement.

Easy setup: A quick and straightforward setup process that doesn’t require extra equipment or cables. Microphones in the TV locate the wireless speakers and calibrate the system automatically.

Intelligent audio balance: The audio spreads smartly from TV speakers to wireless ones, dynamically adjusting based on each speaker’s capabilities and location for the best sound.

Unveiling at IFA 2023 Event

Dolby and TCL are set to present Dolby Atmos FlexConnect, integrated with MediaTek’s Pentonic Smart TV series chipset, at the IFA 2023.

To delve into this partnership, catch TCL’s 2023 Global Flagship Product Launch on August 29th at 05:30 IST on YouTube (@TCLElectronics).

Commenting on launch, John Couling, Senior Vice President, Entertainment, Dolby Laboratories, said:

Instead of consumers adjusting their surroundings for better audio, the audio should adapt to them. Dolby Atmos FlexConnect revolutionizes this concept by offering users the liberty to organize their devices as they wish, while still ensuring a top-notch Dolby Atmos experience.

Speaking at the launch, Frédéric Langin, Chief Commercial Officer, TCL Europe, said:

Our latest collaboration with Dolby marks a substantial advancement in the realm of immersive audio. Our primary focus is to provide exceptional experiences for our customers.

Dolby Atmos FlexConnect empowers users to experience phenomenal immersive sound, irrespective of their audio device arrangement. We eagerly anticipate unveiling this novel, customized sound experience through our forthcoming range of TVs and accessory wireless speakers.
