I just bought a the 2024 TCL QM8. I came from a 2020 Samsung 8k. The black levels are OLED quality and the brights are second to none. What an amazing tv for the money. I hope TCL forces everyone to compete in price and quality.

[PatWalsh-ly]

You praised the U8k in three separate videos and then said in another video that you didn’t like it. Inconsistencies like this need to be explained if you want people to value your opinion and judgement.

[bartus]

You're reviews are going to benefit tremendously from the use of the HX3110. I always thought that always using certain OLED tv's as a benchmark is somewhat questionable, giving that they consistently crush a lot of shadow details, greatly rely on tone mapping, have limited HDR impact, and can't handle high APL scenes. It's great that you'll now have an actual proper reference display that you can use for many years to come.

Will you make a video about the HX3110? I think a lot of your viewers will be interested both in the measurements and your personal impressions.

By the way these type of comparisons are great, I hope you'll keep doing them.

You're stating that the QM8 is "a little brighter" than the S95D and G4, Give me a break, their brightness levels are not even comparable! Particularly when you consider brightness stability across all windows. I'll never understand why reviewers like yourself, virtually any reviewers for that matter, never talk about brightness stability and ABL. It is the complete Achilles heel of OLED tech. The difference between HDR on a mini LED or high quality QLED and OLED is so vast that it might as well be a different format altogether. I was a staunch OLED supporter until I saw HDR on a high end QLED. I could not believe how big of a difference it was, I felt like I was seeing HDR for the first time. I'll never go back.

The U8N in a 55” has a completely diff panel than its larger sizes. I wouldn’t recommend it judging it on the same scale as its 65” counter part.

I really loved the last year's QM8. Blacks were great, as someone who uses Subtitles all the time, having no blooming around subtitles is vital. I didn't notice any crushing like in previous years. Fantastic sound and nice full screen brightness. I would have kept the TV but the Dolby Vision was broken. Not only was it super dark but it had a weird hazy sheen to it. If they fixed DV for the 2024 model then I would be happy. I bought it for $2, 999. Hopefully it'll be good. I'm just kind of tired of OLEDs after having them for 10 years and I don't particularly like QD Oleds they are ok, but it's hard to get rid of the weird Yellow glow.

[Davidcharrod]

Got my U8N 65 being delivered in a few days. I've watched videos on both and the Hisense just seems to perform on OLED level with shadows and it controls it's brightness like a champ. Also can't beat the the audio system so I don't have to always use my sound bar.

All right. My TCL from 2020 has broken down, but thanks to 5 year Geek Squad protection plan I was fortunate to get a brand new replacement TV from Best Buy. I was on the verge of choosing the new excellent Hisense U8N, but watched your video and switched the order to 75 inch TCL QM8 (2024). Thankfully they are now equal in price at BestBuy, so pricewise either one was in my Best Buy plan allowance range. I hope your review would not let me down. Now the wait begins. You shared with us the quality of these TVs in bright rooms. How about dark rooms - are they still good or are they too bright for after dinner movie? What would be the best settings for the dark environment?

I just bought the TCL qm8 2024 after my TCL 825 died after 4yrs of use..The Techs came out and tried to fix it but the display kept shorting out the motherboard..so they recommended I get a new TV instead..so after watching this video..I went with the qm8 851g!Thanks Fomo!

[ehenningsen]

TCL isnt playing around, the QM8 is gorgeous

[aaronbyers]

thanks for your thorough reviews! very helpful!

[ryanbaker]

FOMO: pans the camera to reveal a grouping of 6 TVs plus a 7th, the A95L. Me: realizes that's worth more than both of my cars, combined, lol.

[MitchHowes]

Hi and thanks for all the help. What is your take on why TCL is not releasing the X955 QD Mini LED in the North American Markets? Do you think it will make it here eventually? Do you have access to one of these gorgeous beasts for reviewing?

[mrrjimm]

Hi Fomo- What tv would you recommend for daytime sdr content? Thanks

[ianswenson]

I just bought the 85" 2023 qm8 for $1500. I don't necessarily NEED a new TV but I'm trying to finish off my home theater with a high end set. My question is should I send it back and wait for sales on a 2024? Are the improvements that big that I should be patient? Or am I fine now with this purchase and should I just wait until there's a huge jump in tech? I love this new TV era but it's like PC building. Every year there's a big jump in performance so it's not hard to get buyers remorse in the tech world.

[TheMailerDaemonLives]

How is the motion on the new QM8 is it at all improved by the newer processor?

[mati_wod]

Great video, FOMO! Were you able to test out upscaling/processing for the 2024 QM8? Wondering if it's any better than 2023, which I know had some issues with low bitrate content.

[Travith]

Thanks I just bought the 23 qm8. Guess I should have waited

[nickyls]

I bought the 75” tcl QM7 and am struggling a bit with glare as there is a window behind me when watching the tv. The U8N is currently the same price. Is it a lot brighter and is it worth the hassle of doing the exchange?

[quazar_galaxy]

U8N the best TV in this year! Perfect colours and cheap price! I bought u8n for 1200$ and very like it!
