I'm in the same boat as you. After reading some of the comments here and my own research......onkyo sound system I think. C655 seem to be more superior but some claim the QLED is not real QLED I think.

I was considering this model but looking at the price now >2k i'm more incline to go for Sony. At least the pricing doesn't yo-yo and specs are transparent.

So which Sony model u bought bro?

Have not bought yet. Was offer KS55S30 at 2.9k. what's your thought?

Out of my budget range. Because already have mini led qned91 at living hall. Plan to buy for my bedroom.

I think c655 just saw in shopee 1.7k

Based off what their official Shopee said last time, T7B is QLED, C655 is QLED PRO with subwoofer.

Also not sure how many inches you're looking for. But 55 C655 you can get as cheap as 1.6k sometimes.

Where I bought it from (Shopee)

How's the performance c655? I see some of the review n video posted ..... the startup loading seem slow?

Hi,

c655 is quite a good TV considering is price bracket...good wide color volume, good sharpness minor tweaking to get good accuracy and support many formats.
Only thing due to its brightness of arnd 400 nits....you can only use in moderate lit room . If room very bright with a lot of lights or direct sun light, may not be suitable.
Also it upscaling of 1080p or lower quality video to 4k is pretty ok but not as good as Samsung or Sony.
Being a native 60hz panel, motion is ok for most people but not as good those with native 120hz panel.

TCL initial first start from power off to power on is not fast. But you can enable Quick Start mode if leave your TV in standby. It will turn back on almost in an instant

For me, performance is good enough. But that’s only because I use 1 streaming app on it. I’ve disabled every other app and mainly use my Apple TV attached to it.

Startup is slow, but waking up from sleep is fast like other TVs.

Dear sifu, am eyeing for TCL C855 75", gonna grab it either next month or next Jan.

Just curious if anyone purchased C855 as well? I am curious about the ports (especially antenna port as I still watched lots of local tv shows) and the remote control.

Thanks in advance

I am using the 98 inch version in a dedicated ht dark room..To me PQ is better than LG C4 with higher contrast with similar black levels but you need to configure the right setting but I am not using antenna port as it is lightning prone..If you still want to use better use an external decoder box and connect via HDMI which is safer.
However c855 upscaling of non 4k source material while good for most people but is not as good as Sony, Samsung and LG TVs of similar tier.
If your viewing mainly non-4k broadcast sources, I will suggest either a Sony or Samsung which excels in upscaling.
For me it does not matter as I am using a high end video processor to upscale for non-4k source and most of my viewing are 4k sources.

Great to hear feedback from actual user

That's a very good suggestion, I will get a decoder box for that purpose.
While for non-4k content that shouldn't be an issue for me as well.

Thanks for the reply
I am still surveying around as the lowest price I am getting is around RM9k for 75".
Hope able to grab it at around RM7k-8k during coming promo/sales

Hi,

No problem. Please take note c855 is using high contrast VA panel. Unlike IPS panel it does not have very wide viewing angle (similar issues with Sony and Samsung miniLED VA panels which does not have wide angle filter)
Viewing directly in front is no issue for the picture quality.
But if you view at more extreme angle from sides, there will be color and brightness washout
Example main sofa in front of TV is ok but if side sofa to the left or right at 90 degrees of main sofa, picture quality will degrade.

Thank you, this should not be an issue to me.
My old TV was on VA panel too, and my seat settings are front facing directly too.

Anyway, hope to join the troop soon

Hi bro,

Sorry for going off-topic but how has your experience been with the QNED91 model? There is hardly any local reviews
and I have been to 3 LG retailers who did not have a unit on display. I understand the 65 and 86 inch models are for
their retail outlets while the 75 inch model is only under the Puricare plan. The closest reviews I can find are for their
QNED90T model which is the North American version on RTINGS

Cheers!

Hi, mind sharing what video processor you are using for upscaling?

Hi bro, I am currently on v488. is this compatible with my 55c725 and if you recommend to upgrade? Thanks alot

video processor based on madvr

Your TV if you check the hardware info, got info like this "V8-R51MT05-LF1V576.021120" ?

What is on yours?

Yup, that’s how to identify firmware. Why

Software version: V8-R51MT05-LF1V488.XXXXX
