serious question bro, hows the C716 after owning it awhile now?
hows the black contrast when watching dark scene movies? hows the android UI performance response time? hows the response time after let's say click netflix then the movies starts to play?
seems hardly can get a real details spec of this tv. spec shows brightness around 330 nits
dilemma of choosing samsung/sony/tcl

Seems you didn't read my previous posts.
I have been one step from buying Hisense 50A7400F,
but give up seeing bleeding in they screens from many users.
Most real detailed spec you can found:
https://www.displayspecifications.com/en/model/be9e1ef9

Of course Sony and Samsung is better, but didn't match my criteria for allocated budget (~RM2K ,up to 50").
Samsung 50TU8500 no Android, no Dolby Vision (330 nits same)
Sony 49X75H no Dolby Vision/HDR10+ (340 nits)
Sony 49X80H IPS panel, no HDR10+,over budget (500 nits)

I don't want to repeat same thing again, but as you ask about black contrast,bellows are same pic I made today
(in a dark room).

Black screen test


White screen test


Calibration test


Dimming test


HDR10 YouTube




After 18 days of testing.....(and watching) TV has 10 day+++ running time...

As stated earlier...version with older firmware V2xx and early V3xx, yes a bit.
I got TV with V356 and no sluggish.
Tried many version V378,V379,V395 and end up with V606 (experimental).
Many versions are on the net ,just download and try.Have 2 basic ,one is IMG and other is OTA.
IMG version flash everything (good if you brick TV !) and OTA which keep your apps and setting.
Can flash up and down.
UI is fast and have no problem.This month TCL supose to upgrade to Android 10.

This is my UI screen..

Good.

Which size you have ?

alright thx for the feedback

55", buy as gift its too cheap.

It's arround RM3K+ ,I think.

Today price possible to get it within RM1.5 - 2.0 k

55" ?
This must be crazy deal !
Any connection for this price ?

I get 55 inch. But till now the thing havent send out. Frustrated

Where you bought ?

From lazada. Got few seller only.. I believe not only me alone waiting for the tv.

Bro.how do u update?download this files then just plug in USB?

Download OTA zip file (1.3GB) and copy untouch zip file on empty USB (FAT32).
Insert USB on TV (any port), msg will pop up...do nothing or cancel.
Go to Setting>Device Preference>About>System Update>Local Update and follow instruction.
File will be verified first then you can install.
No any apps or setting will be lost during this update.
