Hi all. I am about to purchase a TCL C716 55". But would like to ask some questions.
1) Can we download apps like Popcorn Time since it running on Android TV?
2) Is there ghosting when watching football via Astro?
3) Any recommendations on possible apps to watch series and movies beyond the official ones like Netflix and Amazon Prime?

Thanks.

1) Yes
2) No...pic attached
3) Has many, even in Google Play Store

Great...thank you. Going to purchase online today and it looks like best price us RM3099. Will be checking the forums for best p2p apps .

Finally, which of the OS update do you think works best? As to calibration of color...no idea how to even do.

Thanks again for the prompt reply.

Yay another one to the C716 family.

Refer to history, someone mention this C716 netflix app not support ATMOS.

Netflix got many 4K movie?
Worth to subscribe 4k Netflix with this C716?
Many app require to subscribe with payment.

Most of Netflix owned shows are in Dolby Vision and c716 supports it.

Currently on Android TV 9, Netflix on C716 is not produce ATMOS.

TCL mention that when updated to Android TV 11 in future, ATMOS will be enable. You can see new TCL TV C825.

Regarding 4K movies, there are many Netflix movies and series in 4K, HDR and Dolby Vision. Best of all, C716 support Dolby Vision which enhance the video image.

Thanks for the info

I have upgraded to 100Mbps Unifi last 2 weeks. Before this I am using 10Mbps Unifi Lite. So, these problems are not notice.

Here are the problems:
1) When I use my Ethernet Cable on C716, maximum speed is 20Mbps, average 18Mbps when test using speed test app and Netflix network test. I have not notice this when using Unifi Lite.
2) When using Wi-Fi on C716, I am able to achieve 100Mbps when test using speed test app and Netflix network test.

So, is it only my TV get this result or anyone also has this behavior?
Or is it one of bug/limitation in Android TV 9?

I am using this speed test for Android TV (post #99):
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?....rma.netpulsetv

With LAN ,I can get arround 80Mbps (same with WiFi 2.4).
With WiFi 5 can get arround 160-170Mbps.

Have you use Netflix network test?

Settings -> Get Help -> Check Your Network

When I use Analiti speed test, Ethernet can get 60Mbps, Wi-Fi 5G 100Mbps. But only max 20Mbps when test using Netflix network test, or this Internet Speed Test-FiberTest for Android Smart TV

Netflix speed.....82Mbps (under WiFi 5)

oh, it is my tv then.

What is your subscription speed? 500Mbps?

1Gbps.
Check you LAN cable also or reset router.
In TV setting check Proxy, IP setting and Internet connection.
My TV IP is 192.168.0.150 (IPv6 is on).

I have check my 15 meter Cat7 LAN Cable with my PC, no problem to get 100Mbps up, 50Mbps down.

I also has set my IP as your method.

Solved I guess; when I use DHCP instead of Static IP, the results is far better.

Hi i want to check if this tv can support hdr10+ and dolby vision for GAMING? Or it is just upscale during movies and video. Really need to know before buying it for my xbox series x

Hi Guys, I've been following this thread and more or less likely getting the 55' C716. However would like to check with you guys. What is the measurement between the stands for 55' ya? Tried searching around but no luck, only found C715 model with stand measurements.
