TCL 2019 75-inch 6-Series vs. Hisense H8F | Which Is The Better Deal?

  • TCL's 6-series TVs go head-to-head with Hisense's H8F in terms of price per size, but which one performs better? In this video, we pit a TCL 75R615 (same as the R617 but without voice remote) against a Hisense 65-inch H8F. The size difference may not seem fair, but it's what we have on hand and we couldn't miss out on making this comparison, which still reveals the performance differences between each TV. Please note that while our side-by-side footage of the TVs is taken from directly on-axis, many of the scenes where both TVs are seen sitting next to each other required that we film just off-center from both TVs, thereby slightly altering the picture quality of both sets. As always, video camera limitations come into play, so pay careful attention to our observations in the narrative. Enjoy!

    Look forward to when you will be able to also compare input lag. On the subject of gaming though, it doesn't have to by shooters. I find the most noticeable difference with input lag is actually felt with pinball games.

  • @IAMjessiebristol
    @IAMjessiebristol 5 лет назад +1

    With regards to the crushing of black detail, that happens if the local dimming is set to anything above Low on the Hisense H8F. For whatever reason Hisense has the local dimming be very aggressive at Medium and High and this causes black detail to be crushed. Also, the TV does not automatically tone map HDR fairly well when using a Video Game Console like an Xbox One X (unlike Roku TV OS which automatically tone maps up to 4,000 nits regardless of whether the device sends any HDR metadata or not). But you can get the Hisense H8F to tone map up to 3,700 nits by dropping Contrast to 42 for video game consoles. The internal apps of the TV appear to not have any issue with tone mapping and of course Dolby Vision has no issues with delivering bright specular highlight detail due to it's proprietary dynamic metadata.
    With the Hisense H8F you will not want to use Game Mode HDR for playing Games in HDR because it will introduce some serious color banding. Not sure what is going on there but Hisense definitely needs to patch that. You will want to use the Theater HDR picture mode (as it gets rid of the color banding present in the Game Mode HDR picture mode) and make sure to turn off any Motion Enhancements. Film Mode will be enabled by default and even though it doesn't do anything with a 60hz signal it will add some noticeable input lag. I would say that between Game Mode HDR and Theater HDR the input lag doubles (maybe). Other reviews pegged the input lag between 15ms - 17ms with Game Mode. Without Game Mode the input lag feels like it's around 30ms (give or take a few ms).

    I've probably watched 20 reviews/comparisons of similar large 4k TV's before buying the TCL. This is by far the most comprehensive and educational. Especially the part about "crushing" the black levels. That Hisense is a no go just for that reason imo. I owe this channel and Rtings a big thank you!

  • @mtollin2002
    @mtollin2002 3 года назад

    Caleb, thanks. Always great reviews. Is the H8E anywhere near H8F- or is it a black friday bait and switch? On that note, you said you would examine the Vizio M-Quantum 70" (MQ6/M706). Is it even an M-Quantum? I just bought and hear it's more comparable to V-series. I am deciding between 70" M-Quantum and Hisense 75" H8E. I am seeing for near the same price. Any suggestions? Im just so worried that these one-off holiday TVs are nothing close to the line they are supposed to represent. Thanks!

    i would have backed down the color setting on the hi-sense just a smidge. also the contrast setting on the hi sense was at least a couple of smidges too much. as you say, it blacked out some of the information in the picture. and it's the information that we really want.

    Dosn't the Hisense actually allow you to mount the feet in two different locations? Near the edges OR furthe in the middle? Therefore making it even better than TCL's reversing option?

  • @josephrothberg2563
    @josephrothberg2563 5 лет назад

    As far as the feet length problem of these TVs, you can buy an universal vesa mount center stand that’s maybe only 15-20 inches to fit on smaller TV stands. You can find these on Amazon and at BB, or similar stores. Just make sure you buy one that supports the size of your TV. Problem solved. Ironically my Sony Z9D comes with a small center stand which I don’t use since it’s wall mounted. I don’t know why TV manufacturers moved away from these center stands to the long, ugly feet on the edges of these new TVs. These center stands usually cost around $35-$50, TV size depending. I bought one to solve this problem on my secondary TV, TCL 55” 615 in my bedroom. With the distance between the legs it would have never fit and the 55” version of the TCL 6 was the smallest size available. No issues, holds the TV well and completely balanced with no wobble if even touched or trying to shake it on purpose. I have complete confidence in these center stands.

    I wonder how the Hisense 65H9F would compare? I know its more expensive but it's newer so I would think prices will drop for BF. I prefer the simplicity of ROKU as well although I like Chromecast built-in too. Thanks for the videos. I really like to see the comparisons. I have both Hisense and TCL televisions and I also like the Vizo. It would be nice to see a comparison of the 3 of the latest of these 65 and 75 inch TV's.

    What about the Hisense H6500F 65inch 4K TV, which only sells about about $400?

    What do you think I should get the samsung q70r 75 inch for 2300$ cad or Sony x900 f 75 inch for 2500$ cad or go for the tcl 617 75 inch for 1550$ cad. I mostly use for video games or sports with some tv shows and movies.

    I have a TCL purely because of how good the picture was, why don't we have Roku in Australia it is just an android tv. Is there a way to change to Roku
