When you looking to buy a TCL and comparing it to other TV's please keep this in mind. I have the first gen of the 6series TCL when they introduced QLED. They have updated the firmware every year and it looks better than the day I bought it. Truly a great company.

They never stopped offering stands... but usually reserve them for the higher end models. LG, Samsung... Pretty much all of them. TCL also don't have them in the low end ones. This is TCL's cheapest model with a stand.

@@stuckintheinbetween For those that that hate TV legs Universal Pedestal stands can be had. Just because a manufacturer is offering a pedestal stand on some sizes and some models doesn't mean it's across the board on every size TV. The 55" model does still include feet style leg stands. I bought a Universal Pedestal stand that is still better than the flat metal stand that Hisense includes that also has no swivel rotation. Plus universal stands can be adjusted by height. Manufacture stands in general it comes in one height level and is 100% stationary.

@@AR-ki7hg Because some TVs have flicker if you set the backlight lower than max, so I usually just leave it at 100. It is a bright TV, but I use my QM7 primarily as a PC monitor for gaming, and I just lower the gamma with my GPU driver's individual game profiles to tone down the brightness on a game-by-game basis if I find it's too bright for the specific game I'm playing. With some games I want the extra brightness, in others I don't. It's much more convenient to create gamma/brightness profiles with the GPU driver software for individual games rather than constantly adjusting the backlight when playing different games.

I just recently purchased a 55" TCL QM751 which is VERY similar (visually indistinguishable, but with a lower refresh rate) to one of the models in the Korean report on a lack of QDs in TCL tvs. Do we know if the three in the report were the only models tested, or did others pass? I hope someone will test the color spectrum of models sold in the US to determine if they have suitable levels of QDs. I'm liking the TV so far, although managing the picture settings between sources and picture modes is awkward and frustrating.

Ask Copilot for a review, this should be available on your PC or phone, it uses ChatGPT AI and will give you some good intel, it does get thing wrong, but, if you ask it, it remembers what you previously said, so you can engage like you were having a normal conversation. In this case I asked it for a review, but it got the U8N wrong on having HMDI 2.1 for gaming. But it gives you a good starting point to start your own research.

12:07 there is an error at this point in the video, you say that the HiSense has better contrast, did you mean better dynamic contrast? Because the native contrast rating of the TCL (8261:1) is higher than Hsense(4771:1), and the barchart measures average (80% dynamic 20% native) which gives TCL (68%) an edge vs Hisense (58%).

I think when you do your final recommendations about this TV vs another, you should also specify that the color accuracy point should be graded on a curve based on personal preference. Sure the U7N has better color accuracy out of the box, but if the QM7 is brighter and has more vibrant colors, that is more pleasing to some eyes. I personally prefer punchier colors over accuracy.

Right now the price difference at 75" is $300 more for the QM8. The QM8 gets a little brighter but I think the QM7 is plenty bright in most situations! It's clear they have the same media engine because all the ratings of both TVs starting at Low-Quality Content Smoothing to the end of the review are IDENTICAL, it's just the screen's glossy finish/reflectivity and terrible out-of-box calibration that hurts the QM7 A LOT, and the latter is FIXABLE. Sound is actually worse on the QM8 ... I think at this price differential, the QM8 isn't offering an extra $300 of value - 80,000:1 contrast vs. 160,000:1 contrast is probably difficult to distinguish without a computer, 2000 nits content (to utilize the QM8) is rare, and only in the brightest spot in the entire house could the QM8 be considered for purchase ...

That's where I'm at right now. Choosing between the 65" Q7 and the QM7 at Best Buy. Q7 is $699 on sale and QM7 is $1099 not on sale right now so the Q7 is the obvious choice, but then I found out that last month the Q7 was 599 and the QM7 was 699 so I'm wondering if I should wait for them to go back on sale for those prices again.

Great video! Love rtings! My friend has this model but is having trouble with some of the settings. On a single input, when content from Apple TV changes from SDR to HDR, the settings will carry over. Example - let’s say he has movie mode selected and has brightness at 42 in SDR. When content switches to HDR, and the TCL is in HDR10 movie picture mode, the brightness stays at 42 because it brought over settings from SDR. Which seems too low in HDR. TCL seemed to confirm this is how it’s meant to perform as well. Is this something you guys noticed or dealt with when calibrating your model? Do you know if the Hisense U7N allows for dedicated settings whether in SDR or HDR on the same input? Thanks!
@kevincody8391
@kevincody8391 2 ай бұрын
in initial setup there is an option to apply this setting to all other modes (gaming, sports, movie, SDR, HDR). Suspect your friend chose that option vs time consuming adjusting individually all the other settings. Filmmaker mode has zero settings, Dolby Vision Bright or dark.

Oddly enough, I helped him test again and saw it behaving as desired where settings were changing fully per different source material all on one input using hdmi 1. However, when I tested this theory in hdmi 2 or 3 it started to resort to the sharing of settings issue. I’ll take a look for this toggle to apply to single or multiple modes. Thank you

I still don't get the handling of reflections rating. For instance when I went to the store I thought Bravia 9 was the worst because every light caused a streak across the entire screen which was extremely distracting compared to others. The one shown here seem better to me than the perfect mirror reflection of something like a C4 oled.

For Me, HiSense is automatically disqualified because of the poor quality & longevity of their products, which is never considered by rtings.com, but is widely known - just ask chatgpt or read the recent article in consumer reports, Hisense is LAST in TV quality, it's not even close ...

TCL QM7 vs c765 The TCL QM7 and TCL C765 are both excellent TVs, but they cater to slightly different needs. Here's a comparison to help you decide: TCL QM7: Display Technology: QLED with Mini-LED backlight Resolution: 4K (3840 x 2160) Refresh Rate: 120Hz HDMI Ports: 2 HDMI 2.1 ports, 2 HDMI 2.0 ports HDR Support: Dolby Vision, HDR10, HDR10+, Hybrid Log-Gamma (HLG) Additional Features: Game Master 2.0, FreeSync Premium Pro, Variable Refresh Rate (VRR), Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM) TCL C765 (MQLED85): Display Technology: QLED with Full-Array Dimming Resolution: 4K (3840 x 2160) Refresh Rate: 60Hz (some models may offer 120Hz) HDMI Ports: 3 HDMI 2.0 ports, 1 HDMI 1.4 port HDR Support: HDR10, HLG Additional Features: THX Certified, Wide Color Gamut, Dolby Atmos Key Differences: Refresh Rate: The QM7 offers a higher refresh rate (120Hz vs. 60Hz for the C765), making it better for gaming3. HDMI Ports: The QM7 has HDMI 2.1 ports, which support higher resolutions and faster refresh rates, while the C765 has HDMI 2.0 ports. HDR Support: Both support HDR10 and HLG, but the QM7 also supports Dolby Vision and HDR10+3. Additional Features: The QM7 includes gaming-specific features like VRR and ALLM, which are not available on the C765. Overall, if you're looking for a TV primarily for gaming, the TCL QM7 would be the better choice due to its higher refresh rate and gaming features. However, if you're looking for a more budget-friendly option with good picture quality, the TCL C765 is still a solid choice.

I bought the Hisense U8N 55" that has all based on your high scores for everything. What I used most was the DSE and reflection handling. The DSE is far better than the Vizio 2020 M7 50". It was all over the screen and mainly the right half would have a darker tint, it had a tan spot in the corner,& it vertical lines. On the U8N it has one long strip on the right side. There is other minor DSE. You can really see it with light blue and light grey skys. I do watch Plane spotting videos and this where DSE shows the panels true DSE colors. I sent an email about the U8N having feet over a pedestal. I'm buying a pedestal stand on Amazon. Thanks for the music in this Video I needed this video for a sound check and had to reset my Vizio subwoofer to the sound bar and recheck the sound levels. Thanks for the calibration page I also used it for one of my settings but 2 changes. Warm 2 over Warm 1, using contrast at 50 for all picture settings and using the 1860 color gamut over 2.2.

C805 has nothing to do with this TV. If there is analogue, it would be the C765. On that note, it would be really great if you could do reviews for the EU models too. Plenty of people from Europe are looking at your reviews and it is really confusing. I do realize, it would be complicated, but still I'd love to see that. But again, for all my fellow europeans C805 is NOT QM751G. The closest imo is the C765.
