Hey everyone! Important notes: This TV is currently over-brightening content and TCL is not only aware, but working on a fix. If you look at the Calman charts, the color temp in greyscale is fine, and the colors hit their coordinate targets fine, but the issues are in the luminance, where they are brighter than the target. Thanks to a tip from Classy, I was able to confirm the TV does not do this in Game mode. Furthermore, turning off local dimming corrects all luminance errors. I have the fix for the luminance shift bug I showed in hand, and will be reporting the fixes once completed. The good news in all of this is that the hardware is fully capable of accuracy, the new AIPQ processor used here just needs to be updated to target accuracy if that’s what TCL wants. That the Tv simply overbrightens beyond spec is not the worst thing in the world, as it just comes off more vivid, but without white balance or colors looking off. Still, for $20K, it needs to have one accurate mode outside of Game mode, and that’s what I hope to see.

@MJasonUK30 5 күн бұрын

My 98" QM8 calibration is what Classy is referencing here! Classy is an AMAZING calibrator! The EOTF was wonky everywhere except Game mode and there are some other crazy bugs currently but WOW does she get bright (5500 nits for the 98") and black levels are amazing! I'm running a 2.6 gamma and 48 black level to eliminate wash out which creates some crush but I like the almost-OLED blacks in that trade-off! Thanks Caleb and Classy!

Im an electrical enginieer and can help you with the heat question: It's totally easy for any TV, or any electrical device for that matter. Near ANY electrical power you put into it from your wall outlet ends up as heat in your room (minus the light energy that goes out the windows, but that's not much). So you can just buy a cheap energy-messuring socket and take that value (W for the power (energy-stream) or kWh for the total amount of engery for the entire movie (if you reset that value to 0 before staring it).

On the topic of how much heat it puts out, the objective metric would be to talk about how much power this TV consumes while watching content, and compare that to the power of a smaller TV. Power consumed is mostly converted to heat, and some is converted to light and sound.

@@troudefion7069 There actually is a pretty big difference in manufacturing cost. Making sure a 115 inch panel fits the same standard as a 98 inch one is costly and will likely result in far more panels being thrown away due to not meeting the standard. It'll be another year or 2 before the process is streamline enough to make a TV that size affordable. Just look at OLED. The 80+ inch ones used to be almost impossible to make. And just recently they've started to become very slightly affordable, but the 80+ inch versions of OLEDs are still like $2000-$3000 more expensive than the 77 inch versions of that same TV.

Absolutely. Any of the really large TV sizes would benefit from “descaling” mode that could display content in its native resolution in the center of the screen. For 1080 content for example, this 115 inch TV could display it in a 57.5 inch window that would make compression artifacts much less visible at shorter viewing distances.

Had an LG G1 until it got burn in after only 3 years. Never again OLED. Apple TV+ really shows the C855's capabilities in Dolby Vision IQ. I use Bose 700 Atmos headphones when viewing (speakers cannot even come close to these headphones at a peak 110 dB with excellent Atmos), all taken together = viewing heaven. Considered the X955 85" which is like the one you are reviewing but it was just too big for my space and the extra cash not worth it to me. But if you have the cash go for the larger version.

"Cinematic motion looks great without the aid of motion smoothing." Doubt, unless there's some kind of strobing or the pixel response time is slow. Motion issues on modern TVs are chronically glossed over by reviewers. Size makes stutter more perceptible, "stutter" meaning the appearance that an object in motion on the screen is jumping back and forth instead of moving smoothly, because as your eyes track the object they naturally get ahead of it while the previous frame is still being displayed. If an object moves 1" per frame on a 55" inch screen, it's moving 2"+ on this screen, so the stutter must be very noticeable unless there's a lot of motion blur due to slow pixel response time or you're sitting far away.

Size does matter. All "traditional" seating distances from tiny 65" TV's is dated. 100"+ is the new king. Also it definitely demands higher quality media (4k bluray, 4k streaming with high bitrate). Will be excited to replace my 4k laser projector with one of these once the price comes down!

I sit 8.5ft from a 120" acoustically transparent screen and use a JVC NZ7. Immersion and picture are great but quality still doesn't compare to a good flat panel. Would love to have a screen like this. There are 2 major issues I see. One is logistics - many home theaters are in the basement as is mine. No way it would fit down the stairs. The other is audio. The ideal audio setup for a dedicated home theater especially with multiple rows is identical LCR speakers behind an acoustically transparent screen which obviously is not possible with a flat screen. So these issues need to worked out before moving away from projectors.

Question: how do you balance your media cabinet against thin, wall mounted TVs like the LG G series? I am going to wall mount a G3 77", but I feel like I am losing the value of the TV's thin, picture frame profile by putting a 15" or deeper media cabinet underneath. Wouldn't a TV centered on the deep media be more esthetically pleasing than a TV behind a deep cabinet? My 7.2.2 setup will have 2 subwoofers, 2 tower speakers and a center channel on the TV wall, with need for a media cabinet/shelf to hold a receiver, xbox, blu-ray player, the center channel. How can have the benefits of the flush TV, and avoid having a media cabinet sticking 15-20" out in front of it?

Hi Caleb When you do the follow up how about going a bit more in detail about the different picture modes, best setup and tips about applying settings to all inputs. It drives me crazy that doing a change in Dolby Vision sometimes makes changes to other modes as well. But love the TV

@Natak222 4 күн бұрын

Hey I’d love to know how this stacks up against something like the Apple Vision Pro with its theoretical same size screen. Is the AVP STILL more immersive? Also with Apple’s display being OLED and this being Micro-LED, I think this’d even be a super interesting comparison

What would have been really helpful if he compared this with Sony X90L 98" TV or even TCL 98" TV and gave us his honest opinion which TV he was more drawn into most of the time when watching same content from same distance.

What are the scaling options when you have bad content? I mean if you would just scale it down eg 50%, you might have a lot of black bars but quality wise you would be at 55” screen. Can the tv do this? What about a media player or some hdmi device?

Caleb cou you PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do a comparison of this TV to something like an Epson or JVC, or Sony projector?! I think at a point like this it has finally become an apples to apples comparison time. How much better is this than a $5K projector when it comes to brightness, contrast, picture clarity, black levels etc.

With 20,000 dimming zones that is approximately one dimming zone per dollar spent! What a steal! 😊

Well- I remember the first year or so plasma’s came out. A 50” Pioneer was going $12,000. This is no different. Price will fall like a rock, but it will not fall enough for most people.

100" max is enough for me , as no dedicated room. Early adopters will suffer as quality will go up fast , and price will drop. It will always have an overhead cost due to boxing , moving , storage etc. The Box size up from a 98" was quite substantial , add in weight . I think the 100" range might get really good soon. Sony might might bring B9 to that size. Extra large 3D printed RGB will come in a number of years , as can be printed to any width , but will not have the NITs vs even WOLED or QD-OLED - may get to 600 HDR after a few years - but that would be fine at 180" , given cinema is less than 200. Least this tech works , remember seeing those rear projection TVs or whatever they were called . They just looked junk from the first time I saw them. My first Panasonic Plasma a 42" 720p ( my bro still uses it ) , was more expensive than the final Panasonic plasma I got in last year of manufacture ( still have it , and SDR movies still look great ). I can enjoy a movie on anything, not too small or too low quality . So happy to buy an excellent 83" or 85" and move seating a bit closer for certain content . Have a big house and 8 kids then this TV makes more sense to me at least

There was a Panasonic or pioneer 110 inch plasma for sale for 4 grand local to me. It came in a crate on wheels and retailed for over 50k at one point lol.

Tcl has some very thin bezel 75"+ tvs which you can videowall 4 units with the top 2 fitted upside down. If you can tolerate a very slight central cross, youd save around $17,000😅

@generalbystander1631 4 күн бұрын

Caleb, the size of this screen puts it squarely in projector territory. I’d love to see a comparison between this TCL and a high-end Sony or similar projector. Projector fans talk about its cinematic quality. What do you think?

@ClaytonMacleod 3 күн бұрын

8 feet away is optimal for a 120” TV at 4K, so any more than that for this 115” model will be fine. The caveat being it must be 4k content that you’re watching. You may or may not be annoyed at seeing pixels for 1080p content, as 8 feet is the optimal distance for just a 60” TV at 1080p.

Question. I have denon AVR-S730H, capable of 7.2 or 5.2.2 surround sound, which is the best setup? I would think 5.2.2 for the atmos content on streaming and 4k discs, but I also have a lot of blu-rays that have 5.1 or 7.1 and obviously no atmos. Bonus question: if I have all the surround and ceiling speakers in place, is there a way to quickly switch between the 5.2.2 and 7.2 without needing to rebalance the sound of the system?

@Sas-wk9lj 2 күн бұрын

Yes, with modern AVRs you can have 4-5 different channel configurations/ setup saved and you can easily switch between them any time by getting into the AVR's settings.
