Ryan Curling, Marketing Manager, TCL South Africa, says, It is simultaneously thrilling and humbling to retain its global number two position as the second best-selling LCD TV brand in the world, but to be named the number one bestseller in the Android market. Absolutely incredible! ! Locally, the South African market is becoming more aware of the greatness our brand brings to consumers and the unique value we offer.

Today, more than ever, TCL wants to push the limits of what is possible with technology and play a vital role in their lives by inspiring customers and helping them enjoy new lifestyle experiences at home.
Over the years, TCL’s core competitiveness has grown and achieved solid results in a challenging market. The company has been a leader in the Mini LED industry since 2018 and will continue to grow with significant technology improvements on its brand-new TCL Mini LED model to provide users around the world with a better viewing experience. Apart from being a beloved TV brand, TCL has successfully strengthened its multi-category range to create a fully connected home for the consumers using best-in-class technology. In 2022, TCL will accelerate its home appliances strategy in Europe and provide a growing line-up of home lifestyle products to meet consumers’ new expectations for healthier living and an easier life at home.
This is a great start to the second quarter of the year and we look forward to sharing more exciting new developments soon, says Ryan.
