No offense , you are buying from a brand where its best feature is its low price . Can you , should you or do you actually expect it to last a long time ? In fact TVs in the modern days are less durable than ever , due to reduction in manufacturing cost . That is when the brand's warranty factor into your purchase decision. TCL has good reviews from its TV line up in the US , AFAIK none of those models have made it outside of US . This post has been edited by Convael: Nov 19 2020, 06:16 PM |

Flashed manually to V395 firmware (Android security June 5,2020: Kernel 4.14.76+,#174,Oct 30 2020), seems a much better, still testing... Tips (for all TCL TV's): To see bitrate in Netflix with RC802V remote,must press virtual remote control keyboard button....then Info.... 
To enter Service Menu: In the Picture settings/ Advanced/ Brightness menu, select "Contrast" and at this point dial the following numbers: 1950 - general service menu (Design Menu) 9735 or 6428 - subsection Factory Menu 9705 - subsection Service Menu 6405 - subsection Hotel Menu 6425 - Total running time ,there is quick access to reset (Reset All and Reset Shop) Access to the service menu (all adjustments are at your own peril and risk !!)

This TV no FALD and no Edge lit. Local (micro) dimming and direct led. Edit: Just checked....50" from RM2.2K go up to RM2.550 ,  55" slightly down to RM3.150. Note: Do not install any file sharing app (ie..ES File Manager) linked to your LAN...like SMB and Upnp, as original installed Media Player will stop working.

QUOTE(Dubl1n @ Dec 5 2020, 07:31 PM) Have u compared the picture quality of this tcl vs others sony samsung etc brand? With its price range I don't own a TV shop to compare with certain models. This is still a budget TV, so put in this perspective and my 3th TV in the house (my room). For me, I am very happy with my purchase. Plenty of OTA and IMG firmware (easy to flash),plenty of reviews (YouTube...many...) and plenty of support thru various forums. Easy to enter Factory Service Menu. Pic quality from Astro.... Astro UHD (ch.780)   Astro HD (ch.514)  (ch.414)  This post has been edited by stasio: Dec 6 2020, 08:14 PM |

How slow is the UI, espescially when navigating Android TV. I saw the reviews mentioned sluggishness as a con.
I tried Sony x7500h & Panasonic hx655 which is in the same price range and all is within what I consider snappy. I also tried Hisense A7400f which has a much lower price than others and I consider the Android TV experience very sluggish. So if someone can compare against that, it would be great. As a sidenote, looks like sellers are selling the 50in model for 2.5k now...  |

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.

This week, I received professional picture calibration setting for my TV.
These settings should apply to most types of Picture Mode, except for gaming or use as a PC monitor. I have not tried to set yet. Settings made with: - SpectraCal C6 HDR2000 - Calman Pro - VideoForge Pro Anybody interested, PM for copy of it.  This post has been edited by stasio: Dec 16 2020, 12:38 AM |

I only wish they provide better relevant tech specs . it beats me to think how they can copy a product / make it better but cant copy the specs details disclosure and TCL needs bring in better TV models . valid for other china operator s too. Consider TCL ad. ... TCL proudly say they have Dolby Vision on this TV ... hence/and implying superior video . for DV to work best the said TV must be capable in terms of WCG and brightness . but TCL dare not / or conveniently forget ? publish some relevant specs for the User to evaluate . i can only speculate the more informed user will know they are trying to mislead the public. or they have poor figures for now i am not sure why these china co here only bring in their cheap TV models . i can only speculate that maybe if their TV is high price they can not compete with Sony or Sam. or any K reading this knows why This post has been edited by Momo33: Dec 20 2020, 07:59 AM |

Same model(s) is selling all over the world (except N.America), for similar price as here.
I was reading numerous forums all over....Singapore,Australia,Poland,UK,France,Russia,...etc, before I decised to buy. Super happy with picture quolity and sound.Picture I adjust for my eyes, even got professional calibrated sheet. You can continue to speculate, for me all is clear and enjoying my TV. Btw, in Sony threat you posted something about Dolby Vision and HLR. What is HLR? I know HDR10,HDR10+ and HLG, but HLR never hear. Is new HDR system? Forget to mention that C716 also got PQ10 . BT.2020 coverage measured in at 74% XY and 76% UV with DCI-P3 coming in at 95% XY and 98% UV. With calibration and firmware update peak brightness of ~380 nits measured.

Dear sifus, thanks for your recommendation and software updates, I'm now a proud owner of 50" C716 @ RM2199.
I do have an audio issue though. My self-powered bookshelves speakers are connected to the headphone jack directly. The issue is that the in-built speaker switch off automatically. How to keep the in-built speaker running and act as a center speaker? |

I do have an audio issue though. My self-powered bookshelves speakers are connected to the headphone jack directly. The issue is that the in-built speaker switch off automatically. How to keep the in-built speaker running and act as a center speaker? Once you inserted in headphone jack ,internal speaker will be disabled (Off),either headphones or speakers. When I inserted my headphones or stereo earphones., internal speakers is cut. For external sound you should use HDMI (ARC) ,Digital Audio Out (OPTICAL) socket or Bluetooth. For your case ,I think you should look in some kind of headphone splitter or digital analogue converter if can work....something like: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07C6B5TTK?tag=ge...797956090000-20 Btw, congrats for 50C716....

But, TCL is one of the favorite TV brands in the US maybe because it is cheaper and maybe because of its famous Roku TVs. Nevertheless, I just rely on reviews which can be biased. But so far, it has some positive reviews. Need to understand there is also a possible grade quality for the different regions?Nevertheless, not everything is perfect... for example, it has no support for Apple TV/AirPlay2/HomeKit (except for the Roku TVs)... may need to use the Air Screen app available on the Google Play Store to have this support.

Believe or even though I'm the one started this thread I haven't bought the TV haha.
I'm still deciding between this model and x9000h but I'm looking at 65 inches which tcl don't have stock for this model. Compared to x9000h, will c716 PQ be better or Sony wins? |

TCL is HDR certified but this particular TV model is not . To get HDR certification from UHD Alliance , an LCD TV would need full array local dimming system , which is absent in this specific model . It needs to achieve 1000 cd/m2 , in which TV without F.A.L.D can't do . You may refer to the page here the note : To bear the Ultra HD Premium™ logo, brightness and black level performance must range from either a minimum of 0.05–1,000 ‘nits’ or 0.0005 –540 ‘nits’. TCL C716 is listed to have 330 cd/m2 typical brightness in its specification sheet , so at least they are honest . This post has been edited by Convael: Dec 27 2020, 06:54 PM |

I'm using the air mouse remote on my TCL C716 TV. When I'm using it, at around 5 - 10 minutes, suddenly my tv screen will turn off / sleep. Is there anything I'm doing wrong? When I'm using the original tv remote, nothing of such happens.

Is there anything I'm doing wrong? When I'm using the original tv remote, nothing of such happens. First check in Bluetooth section if you need to "pair" mouse with TV.Second, Off your sleep timer (or adjust longer time) in Screensaver. Original remote is probably paired with TV.

The " QLED " term has been abused so many times by Samsung , it isn't even funny now . Initially the QLED was not a new tech , it is as literal as slapping a layer of quantum dots films on top of the LCD pixels [not to be confused with upcoming self-emitting-tech Quantum Dots] . Since we can already achieve WCG in the past few years with Phosphors based LCD , QD's primary purpose is to improve Color Volume , often associates with what most common people called ' Vibrant , Vivid colors " . Indeed , in the last few years we have witnessed improvement but are only limited to these mini light canon Q80 / Q90 Series . Understand the fundamental , Color Volume is closely tied to the Color reproduction and Luminance [ photopic response , from dark to white ] In such cases , TV with no FALD [ typical 300-500 cd/m2 ] gives no advantages whatsoever . It is like giving the artist a palette but not allowing him any brushes or tool to paint . They can slap 10 layers of diamond dots on top it is still not going to look different . We already have many examples , like these Q60R & Q60T , a " QLED " without FALD and has poor color volume just like other LCD . Therefore , don't buy into these stupid marketing terms . They don't make magically make your TV more colorful than ever . TCL is at least more honest and they are certified to cover at least 93% of the DCI , which is pretty good for a TV at this price range . This post has been edited by Convael: Feb 3 2021, 02:53 PM |

You guys are lucky wei.
I just bought the C716 via shopee and man, I'm having a nightmare. First one came with those grey dots towards the bottom half (ignore quality -resized picture) and seller was nice to ship another one. 2nd one, seems like used model. Bottom of tv can see markings that the leg have been screwed on, all the legs and remote controller packets were open and worst of all, the screen cracked. Was so excited initially but now have to go and pack both TVs back to the seller for refund, potong stim. As much as I want to try TCL C716, I think I'll go back to Sony or Samsung. Hope you guys have better luck than me. I don't have much faith in TCL quality or maybe I damn unlucky la.   This post has been edited by alwy11: Feb 4 2021, 01:15 PM |

QUOTE(nill @ Feb 4 2021, 01:23 PM) Share the seller link so we can blacklist I'm undergoing through the refund process now and they seem to be providing good responsive service and their rating pretty good in Shopee.I'll see how it goes but the seller claims they've not open that 2nd unit before and is pointing the fingers towards the supplier, TCL Malaysia as they sold it as it is. So for now, I won't name them gua but I damn phobia from buying this kind of items via Shopee now. Edit: Don't think I will buy anything from this seller anymore. Good in sales but poor in after sales service. Said will arranged pick up on 8 Feb, no one pick up and messaged them. Seller said will check. Followed up with them on 9 Feb, no reply for both messages hours apart. Also, I don't think you can rate a seller or comment once you select a refund process. Only if you confirmed the purchase then you can. This post has been edited by alwy11: Feb 9 2021, 05:10 PM |

I didn't see any complain on shopee on Pahang seller 65C716 TV.
As I know ,seller is OK guy (I bought from him also). To check if TV is used before,can check hours in service menu....In the picture settings menu, choose "Contrast" and at this point type: 6425.....under - Running Time Another thing, what is software version installed in replacement (second) TV? Btw, packing (box) has been untouched,before you open ? Is very unusuall that in both packing have this. Edit: Your both picture is from first TV. Second TV ...no picture.

Btw, packing (box) has been untouched,before you open ? Is very unusuall that in both packing have this. Edit: Your both picture is from first TV. Second TV ...no picture. The first unit confirm new and box was clean - there is no marking at the bottom when I'm attaching the legs, all the packets (2 x legs and the remote/ manual) were intact. Only issue is those 6 dots and one line across. This one the run time is like brand new. The 2nd unit - this is the one I was doubtful and the box was damn dirty. Got markings like as if the legs were attached before, all the packets had small holes enough to take the remote or legs. This unit I didn't bother switching it on cos once I lift the plastic sheet of it, it was cracked already. The problem with the TCL TV box is that there is no certainty the box is not opened before unless those previous customers open it like me, where I use a blade to cut the top part of the box (there is no need for this step at all actually). Once you cut off that plastic strap thing around the box (which you can get it anywhere), you can already slide the Top Half of the box upwards and play with the TV parts already. I honestly don't think the seller would do this la (there's no benefit for him) and maybe the unit he received was already a bad/ used one. Like what I said, if I buy smaller items I would go to him too. But for fragile items like TV etc. then I think I will just go to a shop instead. I initially tried looking for shops that display the TCL716 units but cannot find any. I spent quite long actually convincing the missus to go for TCL cos she's those generic Samsung/ Sony type and needs to see a product in life before buying. Then manatau now, backfire haha. These are the pictures of the 2nd set.      This post has been edited by alwy11: Feb 4 2021, 03:17 PM |

Sad to know your story. I also just purchased a 65" C716 last week from Lazada. I'm glad my unit is in good condition. Look like TCL Malaysia has some issues on QC...they need to improve to gain consumer confidence on their products.

Going back to seller for refund, don't dare to try another one for now. But can see his response speed drop a lot compared to before now that I'm getting a refund. Hopefully all goes smooth with the refund. Then once I get it, I will probably have to go for Sony X8000H but will buy from those physical KL shops that have their own lorry to deliver cos this screen crack also don't know whether cos of GDex. But that bezel on that Sony quite  . Cannot fight with the TCL design and too bad TCL not popular here yet. |

On a good note, my wife might allow me to increase budget to buy the Sony X9000h but a lot of physical shops no stock. Anyway no fate for me but good that others are able to enjoy it! At this price point, nothing beats it for the specs you get. |

Been comparing firmware ver 606 and 620...seems like ver 620 has much brighter screen, more accurate colour temperature with 10 steps control, rename micro dimming to local contrast, audio delay setting...but I have minor audio syncing issue with my Samsung Q80 soundbar...

Service menu (pic taken after 18 days of extremly using)  Edit: Every restart manually/Quick Start OFF or reset by TV setting.... in About/Status ..Up Time will be also reset.

Way to much....it's mean Second TV had been used before at least for 1 week.
This pic you can send to seller also. Btw, do NVM and Shop reset before you turning back TV (resetting all email and passwords). Many suggest after firmware update to do Reset Shop and is no bad, just must type all emails and passwords back, picture/sound settings bring to default and DTV channels must scan again....but most important all application from previous firmware are untouch. Is better then factory reset in which you lost all application (except TCL default app) . This post has been edited by stasio: Feb 7 2021, 07:15 PM |

Hi all Sifu,
Few question to ask, 1. What is your current setting on your C716 TV, I am using Smart HDR most of the time. 2. Can some Sifu here share the website where to read more about the TCL TV Firmware, my out the box is V606 but when I do OTA upgrade, it always says I have the latest firmware already. 3. Did any Sifu here installed Movie HD apk? and how to get it to work on Android TV? 4. How to enable Dolby ATMOS on C716? So far never see it on all the content I watch on Youtube or Netflix. I did try to watch Dolby content on Youtube but the ATMOS LOGO on-screen never pop up.... Thanks in advance. |

V606 is latest official firmware as stated in https://tclnordic.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/arti...tware-downloads 3. To sideload non playstore app, you have to download app call Downloader by AFTVnews or Send file to TV, enable app can install in Setting>Security.  3.1 I use Downloader to search, download and install app. Then I install Aptoide TV to install app that suitable for Android TV, such as Disney+ and XCIPTV Player. 4. If you don't have Dolby ATMOS compatible AV or sound bar, you can't experience the sound. However, app on TV as for now, only Prime Video, Jack Ryan, Episode 1 will deliver Dolby ATMOS. 4.1 If you want to see the ATMOS logo, you can download and play ATMOS file using TV media player. https://we.tl/jxvi4Pgwz9 4.2 I bought local Dolby ATMOS 5.1.2 sound bar made by A&S during 11.11 sale and I bought new Chromecast with Google TV which can play Netflix with Dolby Vision & Dolby ATMOS (selected titles) even I'm using 10Mbps Unifi Lite.

Apps which I didn't use I disabled or deleted by ADB_AppControl, as is easy to use. Need app and adb driver for you PC.

[Review] My quick review of TCL 50" C716 QLED 4k TV Tested on firmware: V389 Overall: Good TV with an exceptional panel for it's price, but comes with few major caveats it being a cheaper model Color: SDR: Out of box SDR color accuracy is poor, SDR color volume also seems to be low, overly saturated by default. This is mostly caused by backlight eco mode, turning it off improves color alot, would recommend keeping it off. Native color profile also helps HDR: HDR color accuracy and color volume is amazing, white point is nearly perfect with excellent dynamic range. HDR / Dolby Vision videos on Youtube and games look really good For some strange reason Netflix is not showing proper HDR; even when Dolby Vision tag is displayed. This is apparent from colors. Apparently Netflix's mastering of HDR content is pretty poor as same videos / clips on youtube HDR / Dolby Vision show significantly better Gradient handling is okayish, can see minimal banding Brightness & Panel Uniformity: Brightness in HDR is mediocre, details don't pop as they should but images still pack a punch due amazing colors Backlight bleed is minimal, slight darkening in edges and some foggy areas in upper left, unnoticeable during content play Motion: Motion handling is not good, there is visible ghosting when navigating fire tv menus but during gaming it's a bit better; nothing spectacular. Slight flicker in some content. VRR is missing, which is expected at this price range; but 120Hz is also missing which is a loss imo Viewing Angles: Viewing angles are poor, sitting at 8 ft away from tv the image starts to wash out even if I move more than 3 ft away from dead center Audio: Audio on built-in speakers is decent but there's ~100ms audio delay on internal speakers which is annoying, same issue happens even if I use optical out System & UI: UI is pretty laggy compared to LG etc., processor being so slow that Kodi is practically unusable at 4k. But, this is a non-issue for me as I use Fire TV mostly. Even with that, TV has restarted multiple times during it's use and YouTube exhibits an annoying bug in HDR whereby TV would intermittently switch in / out of HDR while playing content Performance with Consoles: Xbox looks amazing, HDR games like Forza, Doom, TitanFall look absolutely amazing; lack of brightness is felt but that's a given in this price range. Nintendo Switch looks a bit over saturated in SDR by default, but looks amazing nonetheless. 120Hz is missing so that's a huge loss for gaming, do keep this in mind when considering it with next gen consoles Current Gear, for context: TVs: LG 55" EG9A7V OLED, TCL 55" C716 (this TV), Samsung 32" CF391 Monitor, Fire TV Stick 4K HTPC: HP EliteDesk 705 G2 Desktop Mini PC Audio: Edifier R2000DB, Massdrop x Sennheiser HD 58X, E1DA PowerDAC V2 amp & few IEMs Consoles: Xbox Series S, Nintendo Switch (w/ Pro Controller and 8BitDo SF30 Pro) Lappy: MacBook Pro 15, 2017 Phone(s): Samsung Galaxy S8, iPhone SE 2020 arslow liked this post

Apple TV (Fire TV variant) 5.1 (18) - com.apple.atve.amazon.appletv This app is only for Amazon devices. I have tried all of this app on my Shield TV previously & none of these apps has worked. I believe that Apple might have their own content protection requirement that need to be added at firmware level first. |

Oh lord.
This thread couldn't have popped up in my radar at the most... Timing. So here I am asking the sifys and owners for immediate (ASAP) clarification. I have posted a thread in this forum about me getting a 65" TV here. I have finalised with a heavy heart to go for Samsung 65TU8500 (2+3 years warranty) @ RM 4300. Gonna make purchase in the morning. Now I came across this thread that puts a dent. Can someone let me know if I am making the right decision or not. |

QUOTE(pg84 @ Nov 9 2020, 08:12 PM) Here is my tcl 55 qled, viewing angle is good at 60 deg, vibrant qled colors I have noticed that the top of the TV screen is slightly curve when view from the top of the TV (look like a curved TV from few year back) but I am wondering if this is the design of the TV (to lessen the viewing angle issue) or it is manufacturing defect? In fact, The top center of the TV screen is slightly dented inward when view from the side (very close to the TV). Wonder you can provide screen shot from the top of your TV for me to compare?

I have used measuring tape to check whether there is a gap and found it fact there is a gap at top center. But I don’t really see any picture distortion at top center.tense from side to side bottom.middle and top. So you will see gap or not. Any deformation in picture quality,because this? If your TCL Qled has no such issue, then it might be a manufacturing defect. Not sure this issue will later develop into picture distortion down the road. Appreciate someone else can confirm theirs’ TCL Qled having the same issue. |

New owner of C716 reporting in 😀
My previous tv is a 40" FHD dumb tv, so this is mind blowing exp for me. Just want to ask sifus here.. i tried to play 4k clips from youtube (i searched '4k 60fps') Why sometimes it plays smoothly then it judders? Does it related to my internet? (Using maxis 30MBps fibre). For warranty do i need to post back the warranty card? Coz i bought it from shopee (the seller from Pahang) |

Timing. So here I am asking the sifys and owners for immediate (ASAP) clarification. I have posted a thread in this forum about me getting a 65" TV here. I have finalised with a heavy heart to go for Samsung 65TU8500 (2+3 years warranty) @ RM 4300. Gonna make purchase in the morning. Now I came across this thread that puts a dent. Can someone let me know if I am making the right decision or not. |

Hi sifus, I wanna ask how's the picture quality of P8S or P8M vs c716/716? I know one is QLED and one is not. Other than that, how much of a difference between the two in terms of value?

TCL Service told me the bend/curve on my TV likely due to mishandling by owner... Trying to poiint finger at me... They also said if I complained when first got the TV, they can exchange one for me. But I never mishandling it. I just put the TV on a bed and installed the TV legs. Then, move the TV to the table top (which just next to the bed) with the help of my wife. I wonder just doing that can cause the TV to bend that way? However, after much explaining over WhatsApp, they agreed to send technician to my house next week to check. |

ok after reading 80% of the discussion here, I am still skeptical. C716 65" is RM4199 like everyone mentioned, I heard many online reviewers say that HDR, HDR10+ and Dolby Vision have little to no effect at such low peak brightness and you have to nit pick to actually see the differences between HDR and DV content so i'm going to disregard those "features". That being said, would all of you still go for C716 or a Sony/LG/Samsung?(Mainly for the brand name reliability) More specifically, LG 70" UN7300 at RM3999 (300-350 nits+- brightness, IPS panel with Magic Remote) Sony 65" X8000H at RM3800 (400-530 nits+- brightness, IPS panel with overall better picture quality than LG) Samsung 65" TU8000/TU8500 at RM 3800(300 nits+- brightness, VA panel so better contrast ratio than both above) Based on Rtings.com all 3 brand models above lose to the TCL series 5 but we can't definitively say C715/6 has the same picture quality as series 5. So with HDR/10+ and Dolby Vision being disregarded (at least to me) would you guys still go for the TCL C715/6?

That being said, would all of you still go for C716 or a Sony/LG/Samsung?(Mainly for the brand name reliability) I bought my TV because of the price of QLED TV. At the time I bought C716 50in, RM2199. The cheapest QLED TV at the time. Furthermore, it's an Android TV.More specifically, LG 70" UN7300 at RM3999 (300-350 nits+- brightness, IPS panel with Magic Remote) Sony 65" X8000H at RM3800 (400-530 nits+- brightness, IPS panel with overall better picture quality than LG) Samsung 65" TU8000/TU8500 at RM 3800(300 nits+- brightness, VA panel so better contrast ratio than both above) Based on Rtings.com all 3 brand models above lose to the TCL series 5 but we can't definitively say C715/6 has the same picture quality as series 5. So with HDR/10+ and Dolby Vision being disregarded (at least to me) would you guys still go for the TCL C715/6? I don't like Tizen and LG software as it restricted app installation. So, if I have the money: I choose Sony 65" X8000H at RM3800 from your list because of the Android TV and brand. LG and Samsung I am not interested because of their software.

Peak brightness is a "thing" nowadays which every reviewer talks about...to achieve better HDR image. But the ability for a TV to produce the brightest specular highlights at a very short period is going to cost you more money...a lot more money.
For general purpose viewing TV...just get a reasonable priced TV with a good contrast and able to produce wider colour gamut...which I opt for TCL Qled TV. Unless you always watch 4k UHD movies with 1000 to 4000 nits peak brightness graded movies (which only a handful of movies have such property), then you can get a better TV like Sony A90J.

The IQ of C716 is amazing and the interface is very user friendly... Frankly speaking, at this price point, C716 is the best your money could buy.

The main reason for me not choosing Sony X8000H is they are using IPS panel for the model...

OLED basically top rated in term of reliability (paying top dollar also) regardless of which brand (top end Samsung QLED models included). Simple logic: more money you paid, more QC/QA will be done by the brand. Main reason I bought TCL QLED 55” is the pricing: RM2,933 + 10% Shopee coins. TCL Service took back the TV to fix due to slightly bend/curve screen... Hmm... should have bought the Sony instead. After using Android TV for while, there is no going back to LG... LG/Samsung are just too restrictive like using iPhone. Now that I had jailbroken and saw no reason to be back to jail again...

QUOTE(@r3|4^2 @ Mar 11 2021, 09:22 AM) Sorry boss late reply.. thank go0dness mine is just nice no kinks.. After spending a couple of days at the factory, the technician there managed to straighten my TV. I think only a TV factory can really done that as I was skeptical they can straighten it. In fact, they really assemble TV there.
This morning they bought my TV back to my house and voila... It is straight and the screen no more dented inward at top center. I asked what happened and the technician said likely due to mishandling during shipping as there were two straight markings at the box (one marking near top center). Note: The box was not broken and the foams inside were intact. Conclusion: there might be some risk when the TV is not send by their own lorry. The technician told me his factory provide after sales warranty services to few brands (he mentioned these brands:TCL, Hisense and Skyworth). I asked the technician what TV brand tends to have less problems in general. He said TCL, LG and Panasonic (surprise no Sony and Samsung). I am just glad my TV is now fixed and will be careful when buying online from seller who use courier service. Attached thumbnail(s)

QUOTE(kokomon @ Mar 31 2021, 11:06 PM) I think my 65 inch is also slightly curve on the top. Just received it today. There is a gap when I run a thread from both ends of the tv. If you use the thread to measure at the bottom across, I believe there is gap as well. I think it’s fine as long as the screen not dented inward.Your TV screen (polarizer film) dented inward at top? My TV screen was dented inward at top center before it was fixed. You can also check for any marking on the box like this? TCL technician told me that it is a frameless design and can easily bend if mishandled. This post has been edited by Packer: Apr 2 2021, 05:50 PM Attached thumbnail(s)

Hi guys,
I am a newbie here that already purchased same tv as you guys Last time i have used philips 7374 and sell it to my relatives. One thing i happy about this tv is because of the memc/motion flow features. i purchase first tcl716 without knowing this features not available (buy first regret later) but it's okay still can adapt to it.Just wanted to know, when i play unifitv apps, the display seem not sharp and look to SD quality. Is it because of the performance of cpu/gpu/ram of the tv causing that behaviour? I did install hbo go and try to run justice league (the source mention it hd) but the display seem not sharp/optimize. In case this behaviour cause by the hardward limitation, is it using external box (nvidia shield tv) will make it improve? Im using unifi 100mbps connect using wifi5ghz (zte) and the router just beside tv ( no interference between tv and router) Appreciate your input. |

Not much difference, V625 is for sure better then your V606, so try first.Choose good HDR10 video clip and adjust your picture setting, also can follow rtings for S535 as smaelz83 noted.

Hi all.
Done reading from 1st post till the end. I'm evaluating 65" Hisense U800QF & TCL C716. On surface i know both using Qled, about same price bracket. I cannot find direct comparison between these 2 model. VIDAA 4 on Hisense Android TV on TCL, local dimming on Hisense. From my interpretation, U800QF should be the better specs between 2. Would like to hear what u guys think, especially from bro STASIO. I might leanr something from anyone opinion, from different angle.

In youtube alot of comparison between Hisense and TCL tv due to the pricing and specifications offered. Typically Hisense seem like providing higher spec in paper but come to actual use you have to consider Hisense color is too vivid and also brighter. I find it somewhat make human lips 💋 colour look funny (atleast on my old 49K300UW). Since you are asking here TCL thread, I would ask you to consider Android TV from TCL has better support and upgrade then Hisense and the rest of branding. Importantly is It is matter of your taste, I would prefer Android TV. My Hisense dont have any update with VIDAA and the OS do have very limited app or functionality. Lastly QLED and LED, that not really a big advantage to many. In technical it has more smaller LED (not the controller) that give you better contrast between true black and bright area. In which QLED should give you lesser bright shadows. In most case you even wont notice. Just my 2 cents here. It is okay to disagree with it. For others who read this, just to share with you if are considering P715 & C716. I owned a C716 for few months now, and recently I have replaced my another Hisense TV with P715. I cant really can observe any different between P715 and C716 on my usage with Netflix, youtube, IQIYI and WETV. P715 locate in bedroom and C716 in living room. My conclusion QLED is not really a must have specification. |

Depending on your use case...if you always watch 4k HDR content...go for Hisense.
But Sony X9000h or X9500H will be a better choice if I have to make a decision within the RM 5K bracket and these choices are only limited to LED LCD TVs... As for my case, I had set my budget not exceeding RM 4k for a 65" TV...so I bought C716.. This post has been edited by kfthoo: Apr 10 2021, 09:14 PM |

Also will get 3 years extended warranty as nowadays TV will start breaking in 2-3 years (my LG TV started having panel issue after 2 years and fixing it cost 1K++). My rule of dump is any TV purchase above 5K should have warranty extended to 5 years (with 3 years extended warranty). Note: You should not assumed your new TV will always last 5 years as I did.

Guys, I know this is TCL QLED thread, what do you guys think about their normal UHD TV lineups, any good? Looking for something that's decent to replace my parent's TV (some chapalang FHD tv).
Currently looking at 55' TCL UHD, non QLED. QLED would be a waste for my parents I guess, they wont really care about that small difference the real black/red etc. Budget is variable, and I think the OS isnt that important since Ill be hooking up an AppleTV anyway.

Last year also TCL said that C71 will get Android TV 10 in December 2020. However, it's not coming to our TV. So, I hope this time TCL really delivered Android TV 11 that they said for TV model 2020. |

i read in the past from china forumer that those who cant afford a sony tv would buy tcl and xiaomi, does this statement still hold water today?
i ask because c716 is at least 2k cheaper versus a samsung and sony. since i am perfectly fine with a xiaomi phone, i guess perhaps tv is moving to the same trend? |

"having too many updates".....this is not posted on TCL webpage, we have luck (or privilage) to have access on TCL servers. Is individual matter , waiting for update firmware by air once or twice a year (also too much?) or download firmware on TCL web page a few times a year ,if you know where.

QUOTE(stasio @ May 8 2021, 10:37 AM) "Huge concern with this model/brand"........ about what ? Chill la... Can't compare with mobile as most tv has a set of common apps being used mostly "It's good to have regular updates ".....TCL have regular update,same as other brands, 3-4 times a year on their web page. "having too many updates".....this is not posted on TCL webpage, we have luck (or privilage) to have access on TCL servers. Is individual matter , waiting for update firmware by air once or twice a year (also too much?) or download firmware on TCL web page a few times a year ,if you know where. Seemse also ,every PC (or phone) motherboard manufacturer raise (your) huge concern by releasing BIOS's (update) to often. In any event my old LED 55" Toshiba Pro Theatre L5400 still doesn't show signs of dying and it hasn't got an OTA update for the longest time 😂😂😂 But it never connected to WiFi at all as I'm using atv box 😝😝😝 Cant find a valid reason to replace unless I donated somewhere really in need.. 🤔 |

Hi all, I'm a bit confused with the naming convention for TCL, is our TCL 65C716 equivalent to the US's TCL 6 series?
I'm looking to get a 65' TV and is currently leaning towards the TCL 65C716 This post has been edited by eltaria: May 12 2021, 03:21 PM |
