How long this discount will las my friend??? And thanks for the info. Planning to get the 75” 🙏🏼

Great review. But I do have one concern. Is this tv a good choice to use as a monitor for my older HP desktop? I would be connecting the computer to the HDMI eARC port. If you could respond to my question, I would greatly appreciate it.

Nice Josh, thanks! This is a top contender for me. Question: is the eARC HDMI 2.1 and everything you would hope for?

on a 75" TCL QM8 what is the maximum height of a soundbar that will fit under it? I was thinking about a Samsung HW-Q990C ... I don't have any stores around my that will carry TV or soundbar I have to order it all by mail... this info will stop me from making a wrong selection.... thank you

Thanks for the in dept. review Josh, this tv has to be the Oled alternative everyone has been looking for it 's even popping colors through this video I can only imagine how good it looks in person I'm sold.

Hold on if you have a soundbar the tv speakers still work? It’ll all work together?

regarding brightness could it be some intelligent setting turned on by default ?

It’s November 2023, I just got mine for 899.99, 65 inch. Will received it on the Tuesday the 21st. My Sony tv broke a few weeks ago and will be getting g a TCL for the first time for budget reason

How are the viewing angles on this tv? I know it uses a VA panel so they viewing angles won't be great

I wonder how the brightness compares to the Vizio P Series Quantum X 🤔?

Can you please test the Motion Clarity of this QM8 at 120 with the feature that introduces back light manipulation to improve the motion for Gaming. Just simply open the UFO test and change the speed to 480 pixels per second, the Alien Eyes should look perfectly sharp based on TCL advertising 480 like motion clarity. This would make the QM8 at 60fps a true Plasma successor and at 120fps it would be half as good as a CRT with 1ms of persistence. 480Hz means 2ms of persistence, and this QM8 could potentially have 2 pixels of motion blur when moving at 1000 pixels per second.

@byrgenwerth2097

Жыл бұрын

So the tcl 6 series I have apparently has a feature called natural motion 480. Basically, I used 120 hz and combined the backlight control option to increase motion clarity. In the UFO test, the eyes looked perfectly clear to me at 480 pixels. Im also not sure this feature is the same as bfi because I didn't see any flicker unlike on the c2 I had.

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.

What's your opinion of upscaling from normal broadcasts or older movies? Compare this to Sony, Samsung and so forth. Thank You

@Josh_Quinonez

For the most part I'd say it does upscaling pretty well. Some movies or shows can tend to seem oversharpened depending what it is. But overall not bad.

Yo josh I know how this QM8 must be because my TCLR635 from a few years ago is still one of my favorite TVS. I believe it is their first Miniled TVS.

For Dolby Vision there will not be an update that allows you to change brightness. That’s the whole point of Dolby Vision. Brightness is scored scene by scene in Dolby vision. (It’s already set if you will.) In the metadata.

The reasons why I wouldn't get the TV although it is nice with black level and blooming etc. Is because you cannot change settings in DV and you cannot choose local dimming in gaming. They just decide for you. No thanks. I Decide what I want in brightness and LD and DV settings etc. Really dumb choice by TCL. Maybe if they change that next year I could consider it.
