According to a research report from Changjiang Securities, TCL has rapidly expanded its global market share in recent years, with its global TV shipment market share rising from 10.7% in 2020 to 14.5% in the first three quarters of 2025, firmly positioning it among the top three globally in terms of shipment volume. Through the joint venture, TCL is expected to leverage the Sony and BRAVIA brand portfolios to enter the global premium market, reshaping its brand value and pricing power. At the market level, TCL can utilize Sony's established global premium channels and consumer recognition to enhance its brand image in key markets such as Europe and the United States.
