Finally i made my decision to buy this TV after become silent reader in this forum. Purchased from LZD during 9/9 sale, 55" for rm2800.

My first impression was WOW. For the price I paid, definitely this TV can wow anyone.

I made comparison with my Sony TV X9000H 65" and its performance is very very close!

Yup I was so surprised how the differences were so minimal. For Netflix, Youtube, Prime Videos & Apple TV - I give 9.5/10. But for ASTRO, the upscaling is mediocre, so I just can give 7/10. Watching live football 4K on Astro is better on X9000H - maybe because of the motion engine in Sony is much much powerful.

Overall, the TCL is awesome TV with the price and spec it deliver. My wish is TCL can provide firmware update that can improve on motion handling.

I have locally update to V650 using USB method that you've shared. Previously the stock firmware was V634 - this one the UI very sluggish and annoying.

If upgrade firmware V653, is the motion handling better? Thanks

Thanks for tips on clear cache. Yes i do it quite frequent while switching apps. I guess it help to clear up the RAM of the TV.

I decided to not connect this TV to Astro due to its mediocre upscaling ability. In this case the Sony X9000H has better advantage on upscaling HD channel to a better almost-4K quality feed (im not exaggerating, X9000H is definitely a different class for normal FALD non-OLED TV)

Anyone experience connect this TV to Apple TV 4K Box? Does it has better motion handling when watching Netflix/Youtube from Apple TV Box? Thanks in advance.

Question to all, I tried to watch movies from USB Pendrive on the TV. But it always say my pendrive is corrupt. When i try insert the pendrive to other TV, it works fine.

Can anyone advice on this? Thanks.

Thanks for your help. It works.

Its definitely way way better than Mi TV P1. Thats all i can say. For philips I dont know.

If you have budget for Sony X90J, it is no brainer to choose Sony instead of TCL.

Many will dislike my comment but in no universe TCL can beat Sony’s Bravia XR Picture processing.

For your case, you only consider TCL as your 2nd TV at home for cheaper alternative.

I have both Sony 65” X9000H and TCL 55” C716. I only use my TCL for my casual viewing while WFH.

If you have budget for OLED or Full Array Local Dimming LEDs, then just go for it. Of course I’m biased to Sony X90J due to my current experience on X90H.

I dont have experience on OLED tv so I cant be sure on any of its issue.

The only thing I can advise is 55” is small. Just go for 65” or bigger if your budget permits.

A bit funny we’re talking about TVs thats not related to this channel though.
