TCL 50QM8B 50-inch QLED Mini LED TV, 4K HDR Premium 1300nits, Smart TV Powered by Google TV (Dolby Vision & Atmos, Onkyo 2.0 sound system​, 144Hz Motion Clarity Pro, Hands-Free Voice Control) Black [Energy Class G]

After doing a ton of research, this TV won my money and after getting it set-up, I certainly made the right choice. Looks stunning on my wall with such a clear picture. Sould isn't bad either and I will quite happily use the speakers over my soundbar for general use. The price is a winner and so much cheaper over other brands. I had an OLED LG that was amazing but sadly suffered with screen burn after watching sky news during the pandemic, so kinds put off OLED.

The media could not be loaded. First impression on delivery, the box for TV is half open and a bit crushed, not a good start and a flimsy bit of sellotape across the top of the box.Opening the box to remove the usual suspects remote and stand etc, the stand had one of rubber legs/stub missing, not good.First of all I'm not a TV Calibration expert or reviewer just a TV user, I've owned Sony and Samsung TV's over the years.This time I thought I would have a change and try something different.I took a chance and bought this TCL65C855 based on reviews of the previous model C845.I've been 50 50 about this Tv not seeing any reviews, but after 2 weeks use and seeing some reviews filtering through I'm keeping it.This is what my eyes are showing me.You have to play around with motion and Judder settings and turn off Energy settings, which might be a bit much for some people but to be honest it's worth playing around with.The blacks on this TV are just amazing, phenomenal I don't know how they did it, but my goodness they have made a seriously badass TV.What you get with this TV are all the formats, Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos, DTS this etc etc basically everything.I just watched a YouTube review on Chigz channel, TCLC855 Vs Samsung QN95D the Samsung is £1600 more than the TCL and I could not see £1600 worth of difference between the two.I was going to purchase the Samsung QN95C last year's flagship, but I took a chance and bought this and I am not disappointed.I've just watched some football England vs Ireland game, motion on this TV is excellent minimal to no motion blur on the ball or fast moving objects, if there is go to motion settings.Watched some stuff on Freeview some of it was crap and some upscaling was ok and some was good, the football looked excellent on ITV HDWatched Stanley Kubrick's 2001 A Space Odyssey 4k from my hard drive plugged into the USB3 port, the blacks on this TV are phenomenal for mini led.Ok I've only had it 2 weeks and I don't know the long term reliability or longevity, see what we're like in six months to a year🤔Paid £1300 , You will probably get it in a sale, I don't care the TV is worth every penny, An absolute Steal.But for now TCL and other Chinese TV Manufacturers are going to cause major disruption and headaches to the Establishment Brands for the money you pay and what you get, this TV just can't be beaten, the more I watch this TV the more I love it👌This TV is Excellent ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This tv actually exceeded my expectations regarding local dimming which makes content pop (especially those mastered in hdr) and the motion smoothing option is actually nice despite the hate around it.I personally don't like smart TVs, I'd prefer if it it was just a regular tv and use a fire stick or something else that can be upgradable and not reliant on the processor (which I'll get to) but that's just a general issue with most modern tvs.Ignoring this, it has some strong smart features such as built-in apple airplay to connect to the tv for any screen sharing use cases and all the apps you might want to use. Wifi connection is stable but it's close to the router so that isn't a high barThere are 2 main issues with it though, the processor is very slow which causes a lot of lag especially shortly after turning on the tv. This problem goes away quickly but you sometimes have to turn the tv off and on again which is annoying.The other issue is with the channels, some channels (off the top of my head, dave) will be unnaturally saturated. You can fix this by changing the display mode from hdr to standard, but you can't change it for specific channels so it's annoying to deal with.Overall, movies and even tv shows look really good (for reference I have a qd oled monitor to compare it to), while not quite oled levels of black, it gets very bright with no fear of burn in.

Very pleased with This TV. I was a bit cautious as normally buy a Sony but the reviews and the savings swayed me. Great picture good connections on the back and easy to set up and the savings is a big bonus, check prices from various sellers as it's definitely worth the time. Best to have a sound bar or similar as TV speakers like most aren't up to a great standard, but don't let this small issue put you off..
