What is PlayCube?
TCL PlayCube is a compact, cube-style smart projector you can tilt up to 90° for the perfect angle—no stand required. It’s bright for its size (up to 750 ISO lumens), shows crisp native 1080p (accepts 4K input), and throws a 30"–150" image almost anywhere. A 66Wh built-in battery powers up to 3 hours of cordless viewing (about 1 extra hour from a 30-minute charge). It runs Google TV with hands-free Google Assistant, built-in casting, and Netflix certification for easy streaming. Noise is rated around 26 dB for whisper-quiet movie nights.
