Our old TCL TV is still running great after 7 years. I trust the brand so much that I want my next TV to be a TCL. Planning to upgrade to a 65in 4k.

This is an unfair comparison. There is significant background light from the blinds partially open over the TCL which not only detracts from the TCL black levels but you can see white reflection on it. The colours will also be off due to the camera processing to compensate for the light over that side. In real life, the TCL black levels and contrast looks almost like OLED with next to no bloom.

I have the TCL, and it is good for the most part, but its gradient banding processing is abysmal. TCL produce their own panels, hence why it's cheap, but you pay for it with poor customer service.

Back in May of 2023 i bought a Samsung QN90B for $1300 (Neo QLED)
Recently December 2024 i bought a TCL QM7-Series for $475
Both 55"
However TCL really have upgraded. I could not believe how amazing the picture was and all the features it brings. Its opened up my eyes and mind that I dont need a samsung tv to get a great tv. Even my wife when she first saw the TCL QM7 picture quality couldnt believe it. Straight out the box no tuning she said "looks like a samsung thats really good picture"
Mini leds i trust and in the future i will be getting more TCL mini led tvs and looking at these cheaper options cause yeah i no longer want to pay over $1000 when some of these cheaper alternatives are just as good if not better.

Wow, pretty crazy how fast tv tech changes. I bought a LG in 2021 and I would have never thought to buy TCL and during the time didn’t compare to Samsung. I remember Vizio was coming up close but not quite to LG/samsung.

[tracer]

TCL color temp looks too warm, but still not sure the Samsung worth twice as much, for this close in performance I’ll get the tcl

[colinberry]

Samsung are very good, but TCL, and Hisense, are moving up the charts, to catch up with samsung and LG and dare I say Sony, at a much more wallet friendly price.
I have the TCL C855, and I looked at the Samsung in the store, and found that if you feed the TCL, a good quality signal to begin with, then, the value in money terms is outstanding

[Izztana]

I’ve got the 75” TCL C855……and I must say…it is absolutely mind blowing Tv….considering the price I paid for it here in Singapore for only $3099.

[paulquinn]

Great review. Thanks mate.Paul from the uk 🇬🇧

[rinaldo]

Thank you for the game section, that's is very importent for me!!!

[Yusril-qe]

During. content review about Television on social media your content is very interesting to descriptions and detail to easy understand

[escanorsama]

1- May we know if you suggest the next TCL T8B over the C class versions?
2- I hope if you put comparisons between Hisense and TCL like U7N vs C755 please

[carlthompson]

i have a TCL 65C855 and the picture quality is stunning and the blacks are nearly equal to my old LG C9 OLED but the sound quality isn't good so i use a sound bar

[zgvip]

WTF。。The quality of the TCL is great in comparison and even more surprising when you know the price. While I knew brands like TCL were improving quickly, I didn't expect the display to be as good as it is now when compared to Samsung, especially in pure black, which is a little better than the blue-leaning Samsung。

[ftlgaming]

Great review..thank you..can you compare tcl c755 vs tcl c855 please..
Is it worth it to upgrade from c755 to c855

[BrunoBraga]

Great Video
Please if possible compare the TCL 855k Vs Hisense U7N

TCL 85c 805k user here - after approx 3 months of using this similar TV, I've had multiple issues with the software. Mainly problems displaying 24hz content with the built in apps (a problem I never experienced with a Samsung TV) and a number of other software bugs like always booting into 100% brightness regardless of the stored setting. My 805k had extremely poor out of the box colour that needed significant alteration inthe settings to look right.

That said. The price is so much lower than an equivalent Samsung panel and the audio support is better than any of the main brand TVs I've used (Sony, Samsung, lg) - it plays almost every audio format i feed it through the optical out to my home cinema (aac, DTS, Dolby etc). This coupled with the Dolby vision and hdr10+ support make it a very good panel for watching movies on.

I just bought the Tc l75C89B (75C855) for 1490 euros, i'll receive it in 3 days. Hope i will like it ;-).

[Adrianek]
