    If I just relied on other youtube videos for C855k i would have bought it immediately. But this is the first unbiased review that I have seen. I'm having doubts now on mini LED. If only OLEDs don't have burn in issue, then it would have been an easy choice.

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.

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✌️

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)

    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?

      Seems like 835 model is an outdated now it does not produce anymore, it also had a lot of little drawbacks at its launch, not the best choice.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.
