That was a very detailed review of the tv. The colour accuracy issues relative to LED dimming is something no other reviewer has talked about about an was very interesting and has made me reconsider my purchasing options as I was thinking of getting the 98inch version of this tv to replace my calibrated JVC projector. I think I will still to the JVC for a while.
TCL C855 is the best value for money considering the features and specifications it offers, the negative points you pointed out are corrected through the settings and color calibration.
This channel is better than all those promo channels with thousands of subs with crap default videos. This is what we need. You guys need more exposure
Its great to see a reviewer being honest about the poor software on the tcl models. Love the image quality on my tcl 85c 805k but the software has multiple bugs (always boots with max brightness regardless of what setting is stored) and noticeable stutter when using the TVs built in apps to play 4k 24hz content inside the fixed 60fps Google TV software container.
Hello there. I already had some little issues here and there early days on mu c755 (805). Nothing major, but after several updates everything working fine now with v135 firmware (already updated manually to a newer v404 one)👍 if you're still having any problems, then try to full reset your TV to a factory settings, I know thats might sound a bit rough, but it really helps in many cases✌️

Very informative!! In Greece the tcl 65" c855 costs 1699 euros whereas QD oled Samsung 65" S90d for 1599 euros and Woled LG C4 65" for 1699 euros. Which one would you choose? Thanks...... sorry you answer this dilemma by the end of your comparison Thanks again!!
@10:24 is that visible and distinct dimming zones that can be seen in the clouds about the setting sun? Looks like that would be rather disappointing and distracting?
i have AVR with hdmi2.1 (4K@120hz) and eARC of this TV is hdmi2.0 only with 4K@60hz.. Thank you TCL thank you... you made a very big cost down and letting down the AVR owners..
A great review indeed. I noticed that the TCL855 brochure available on TCL AU website lists AV1 & HEIF formats as supported. Additionally I tried to visit the website hyperlink mentioned in the description but it asks for login details which is strange.
I have to say this is what i call a review to get real informations for tvs. Im not a fan of any of these tvs from the video but i will look forward to see more especially panasonic mini led and bravia 9, which is just best in my opinion, especially panasonic.
@@ChooseDotTV I really hope you guys will test local dimming on medium vs high, because it seem like medium is similar to high but higher brightness for highlights .
The best review i saw for this TV, One thing I'm wondering is how the SDR brightness is so close to each other at 25%, 50% and 100%, is this thanks to a setting?
Very informative review, great job. I've been interested in the c855 but I'm wondering did you review a 65" or 75"? And what do you feel would be the better option due to the aggressive local dimming algorithm? (would less or more dimming zones/brightness be more accurate going from bright to dark pictures, in your opinion)
During the starfield scene, could you confirm whether the local dimming settings for both the TCL and Samsung models are set to "High"? Additionally, if the local dimming on the TCL is reduced to "Medium," do you observe any improvement in brightness and detail in darker scenes?
I use my c755 (805) on medium local dimming setting, because it way less aggressive with dimming bright areas and lesser tone mapping as well, also it is brighter and looks much more natural overall. V135 firmware
They might in future fill the void that Vincent is leaving behind for TV reviews for the European market. It seems like they're a new channel on RUclips so it'll take time for them to grow their channel.
Thank you very much. Damn it, I just don´t know. TCL C855 with great blacks and contrast or Bravia 7 with slightly worse blacks (but still awesome blacks)? I guess it will come down to which one has better viewing angles and in which one the black cinemascope bars remain completely dark. I believe to remember that one reviewer said that the black bars remain inky black by the TCL C855. Does anyone know which one does a better job by black bars and viewing angles? Sony Bravia 7 or TCL C855? I will get 75 inches.
does the 75 inch use an ADS panel? less contrast would likely bring grayer blacks vs the other sizes w VA panel, comments fr those sizes might not apply to 75" w ADS
Thanks to this I've just found out that there's a USB 3 port at the bottom of this TV. The other two ones are 2.0, so my 4k movies in my portable SSD stuttered so much that it's almost impossible to watch them. I couldn't get myself to understand why a TV that has HDMI 2.1 ports doesn't have any USB 3 ports...
@@ChooseDotTVI'd say it's not so poor as you might think. For example beautiful Sony 65xf900 (x9005f) loses even tcl c755 (805) in terms of viewing angels, which are pretty strong. So it's not so obvious 😉
Seems like 835 model is an outdated now it does not produce anymore, it also had a lot of little drawbacks at its launch, not the best choice. C805(755) as a successor model nowadays which has newer and better processing capabilities and also better colors out of the box. But there is also a newer 765 model, which is better in tonal processing. 855 even better and brighter at a premium cost.
What about the software bugs of the TCL TVs? Has anyone here a TCL C855 or C845? Did you have any problems? What about that automatically forced switch from Dolby Vision to Dolby Vision IQ everytime you rewind the movie a little bit (it suddenly darkens the overall image, which is crap)? Or, did you have any other software problems with a TCL C855? Thank you, I hope you all enjoy the TV you have right now.
They might be good in the beginning, but the important question is, how long will they last? In my place most of these Chinese brands sell at 10-20% of their discounted brand new price after only a year of having it. I think they are good if you keep changing TVs yearly, but if you will keep them for 3-5 years I'd stick with Sony, LG, Panasonic and Samsung.
Sonys don't completely dim when there is information/detail there, that's why the tcl shows as infinite and fails to show a starfield. Tcl and hisense will crush blacks and lose detail due to poor processing.
@alperturan9559 he tried everything to get it to match in real time, changed all the picture options etc but still could not match the TCL, the game he played on it looked quite bad, he tried everything to match the other TV but couldn't. May have been fixed in a patch etc but at the time the TCL for the money was a big win.
It's still TCL. Cheap soldered trash. Had two and two of them broke within 4 months. Always at the power component because of cheap and bad soldering. I now have an LG. Much better.

Both C4 and S90D are superior to C855. I think 65” S90D is the way to go in your case ;)

AV1 actually works. We probably made a mistake in this video. Our website has not been finished yet. I think it’s a matter of few weeks ;)

at 13:02 on the starfield test, is the blooming really that much worse on the U8N or just the camera and similar to the C855? thanks

@ChooseDotTV Thankyou, you definitely helped with my decision you have a new sub from me :)
so, did you try it?
@@devrimboz4302 I waited to long and missed the sale I was looking at, hoping it's same price for black friday
Why is this tv the same price as the Samsung S90D OLED tv ? I guess I’m getting the Samsung oled unless this tv drops 400 in price
During the starfield scene, could you confirm whether the local dimming settings for both the TCL and Samsung models are set to "High"? Additionally, if the local dimming on the TCL is reduced to "Medium," do you observe any improvement in brightness and detail in darker scenes?
It was set to High for TCL. No doubt!

good review
Greetings from Colombia, is a qn90d vs tcl c855 a better option?
Hi! I’d prefer QN95D over C855 but I think C855 is a better choice than QN90D
What is the QN92D?😊
It’s a derivative model from QN90D for polish market. It’s basically a QN90D. No difference.
Does this T.V. Work with Nividia Graphics Cards. Gsync?
Yes, both. No surprise that Sony TVs have extra features for PS5.
Klipsch ❤
So should we buy this tv or not? Everyone says it's great... Now im confused 😢

There are reviews against the Samsung QN95D on RUclips and the C855 looked much better.
TCL has washed out colors.
I saw that video, but i don't think the QN95D was calibrated, thats why you see the big difference

It's still TCL. Cheap soldered trash. Had two and two of them broke within 4 months. Always at the power component because of cheap and bad soldering. I now have an LG. Much better.
We haven’t experienced such failures despite having 3 year experience with two units (C825 and C835).
@wolfura I think it's hit and miss with quality, I had LG with burn in, and it was hell dealing with them. Will never buy an LG product again.
I had a top Sony TV which broke into a several months, so it's not so obvious...
Samsung is just so much better! That dimming on TCL is unacceptable!
But its not avilable in india why?.
