Why does everyone keep saying it’s only 8 bit? It’s an 8 bit panel with 2frc. Meaning it’s basically a 10 bit panel the the qm8 is the same way. You cannot perceive a difference between a native 10 bit and an 8 bit frc panel.
@user-li6ns2lk3z10 ай бұрын
go check the official specs of each tv. if it says 8bit it is 8bit regardless of what new tech comes with it. who knows if that tech is bogus marketing
@tech4life8849 ай бұрын
@user-li6ns2lk3z , false my friend. The spec sheet on hisense own website specifically says ( 10 bit, 8bit+frc). 8bit+frc is a 10 bit panel.

I was actually out looking for a 65" TV for my Bar/Lounge area of my home. My criteria: Overall solid PQ, mostly in a darker environment, although there are windows in there. Sound Quality was a BIG factor as I do not want to use a soundbar as I am hanging it and want to limit extra mounting and additional peripherals and Best Bang for my Buck. Initially a VERY helpful and knowledgeable salesman at Best Buy (who ironically is from Japan and Sony certified), when I gave him my criteria, showed me the TCL. It was very impressive! In fact, I was prepared to buy it. Unfortunately they had none new in box for sale. Not even for ordering online. A testimony to the popularity of this TV. I need the TV now for a big NEW YEARS EVE party we are hosting at my home. So at the latest, would be 2 days from now. He then said, you know what, we have a really nice Hisense that is super comparable. Although they were not side by side, when I watched content on the U8K, my eyes were just as impressed and I have really good vision without need for glasses. Although we did not test out the sound quality, on paper, the U8K clearly wins in this important area for me. Plus, it was new in the box ready to go. So I bought it for $900 (same price as the QM8). I also read a detailed review on RTINGS that I have trusted for many years. They pointed out that the U8K was better out of the box without calibration. That is VERY appealing to me as well. They also have it edging out the TCL very slightly. Splitting hairs really. I do know a thing or two about TV.s and great PQ as I currently own a Sony BRAVIA XR X95K and a Epson 5050UB in my Home Theater showing on a 135" Silver Screen.

Any word on upscaling and smoothing from low bitrate or low res sources? TCL is supposed to follow up on this. My family uses internet and various apps to watch all of our content including sports, how QM8 handles low bitrate and low res is very important to us and probably to most people who aren't consistently running high bit rate and high res content like from cable tv service.

Nice comparison. No local dimming level control seems like a big miss for the TCL. Another miss with the TCL is that it doesn’t have the new ATSC 3.0 tuner built in like the U8K and most flagship TVs from other brands have. But an 8-bit panel on the U8K is pretty lame as well.

Not going to lie … I love both. I initially bought the 85” QM8 for my guest bedroom and loved it! I just splurged on the 100U8K for my living room and gaming on them both has been incredible. QM8 is def brighter and the backlit remote is def better than the Hisense. Honestly after getting the 100” for $2999 it’s really hard to go back to my 77” LG C1, it looks like an ipad when compared to these 2 beasts.

@@donkey3187dude u dont understand, not at fault, but its an industry secret that they make tv worse so u end up buying Sound bar at Bestbuy as sales package deal. They make more money off sounds bars than tv sometimes. It’s like most generic cars have decent speakers. So we get anything car like $4500 under we expect not much difference in speakers. That once u reach like $5000-6000 get INFINITI QX60 QX70, or Nisan 390Z something like that they come with 12-14 BOSE speakers. Suddently thoes BMW X3 Audi A4 or those Subaru WRX so lame. Or yr friends buy a Dodge ram truck n raving about it, u set in the car all u hear is like their mushy weird crusty sound on their speakers they blasting. Once u hear a PREMIUM tv with PREMIUM speakers U CANT go back. It’s like one of those things ppl buy can ,,only found out how much the Speakers make d ride. They suddently forget what the car looks like outside , or d Horse power. The ‘speakers d ride. Same with Tv. Once u get nice set with nice speakers u cant go back. All u hear just bad sound. Thats what happened to me. I remember going to friend’s guest room they had a decent 4k tv, all i heard was distorted sound even just youtube or cable tv for news etc.

Hello, for a non gamer, 99.9% content streamer, and for the 85" size specific, would you recommend the 85 QM8 with 2300 dimming zones, better brightness, 10 bit panel for better colors, and better motion over the U8K for the purpose of picture quality? Or if the U8K better processor, EOTF, and more calibration points be the better option.

Seems like the QM8 video quality is better on every aspect except EOTF and processing, especially once you go over 65" since Hisense AGAIN decided to NOT add many dimming zones after 65"... (85QM8 2300 dimmming zonez, 85U8K 1296??) But how is the processing compared for low bitrate upscaling? I'm trying to decide between the 85QM8 or the 85 U8K, looking picture quality mainly.

QM8, U8K, X90L If momey isn't the problem, X90L is superior to both. QM8 and U8K are like similar only processing in image is different. QM8 is little brighter as well. If i have to pick one between these 2, I'll pick U8KM over QM850G. Ideally, pick any of the three and get it calibrated or buy calibration settings from Quantum TV or someother. There will be huge difference. I'm also planning to buy. But waiting for better sales. Grest video buddy. :)
