Another 75" TCL TV deal. Again, seems like a crazy big discount - last time posted on Ozbargain was back in January for ~$1500 more.

Edit: looks like it has HDMI 2.1 as well, though "Clear Motion Rate" of 200, which might be a little problematic - help me out TV gurus! Detailed specification pdf here:
https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=&ved=2ahUKEwid…

I'm actually looking for a 75" TV - this or the other deal I posted?

        • coxymla on 11/06/2021 - 10:18

          We are, stuck on ancient codecs for the most part which means lower res and lower quality.

          Part of the problem is the number of channels these days, when digital TV first came out the quality was astounding. (better than it is now, although it was also probably the first time you got to see HD content.)

          What's the 65" like? I don't really care about the smart tv features - I have a NVIDIA Shield that I'll be using. Would you buy it again? Pro/Con features?

          • Hybroid on 10/06/2021 - 22:47

            @goldiep: I got it as a free warranty replacement from a previous model that died and really happy with it. PS5 quality is great, snappy UI, hasn’t missed a beat. HDMI-CEC enabled for both PS5 and AV Receiver. Netflix and Prime are main 2 smart apps I use and no issues at all.

            Definitely doesn’t compare to an OLED in terms of dark blacks and colours etc but struggling to justify the cost for one when this looks and works so well.

            Only real con is the awkward blade style stand so make sure it fits your furniture.

            I would absolutely buy one (or the even better x9000 model) again.

    • fuzor on 10/06/2021 - 21:43

        • fuzor on 11/06/2021 - 09:02

          I looked into that. It seems to need display stream compression to do it in 10K and not natively. Kinda like how HDMI 1.4 supports 4K but no one would really say or use that.

    • jimbarry41 on 11/06/2021 - 08:01

      It says 50hz in the specs…

  • Kelvin H. on 10/06/2021 - 20:02

    The viewing angles on this unit seems significantly narrower compared to the X10 - 178°/178° on the X10 vs 80°/70° on the X915.
    If true, would not be ideal for off-axis viewing.

    • Kyrie on 10/06/2021 - 20:20

      Is that because the X10 is a mini led, improves the viewing angle

    • serpserpserp on 10/06/2021 - 20:25

    • ChadHominem on 11/06/2021 - 07:41

      Viewing angle would be similarly narrow because they’re both VA panels

      • Kelvin H. on 11/06/2021 - 10:10

        Not according to TCL. Some TVs employ an additional layer to improve viewing angles. Might be the case for the X10.

        • ChadHominem on 11/06/2021 - 14:15

          It’s not the case. They have similar viewing angles

  • Kendrite13 on 10/06/2021 - 20:21

    Been on the lookout for something like this. Thanks for posting it.

    Can anyone advise why I would consider the other deal OP posted: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/629507#comment-10578131 as opposed to this one? This one seems better (8k vs 4k, HDMI 2.1 vs no HDMI 2.1, bonus soundbar).

    Am hoping to upgrade from a 12 year old plasma finally.

    • goldiep on 10/06/2021 - 20:25

      Haha same here! Advice would be great! I'm not really a gamer but HDMI 2.1 is welcomed.

      • Hybroid on 10/06/2021 - 20:38
        +4

        No real point having HDMI 2.1 on this since it caps at 60 Hz not 120. There's no real compatible native 8K content yet, even PS5 doesn't have it enabled yet.

        If you have an RTX3080 or 3090 hooked up to play 8K res games then maybe, else, utterly pointless.

        Mini LED should have much better quality visuals than this but you don't get 8K-ready. It's a trade-off.

        • scud70 on 10/06/2021 - 20:44

          Not a 3080… Only really a 3090 and even that's pointless

        • Kendrite13 on 10/06/2021 - 20:57

          Thanks for this. It'll mainly be used for Netflix, YouTube, FTA streams and downloaded movies watched via a Google TV. Kids don't use the Xbox much anymore and I will not hook my PC up to it. We already have a sound bar but I guess a new one would be nice.

          Based on this would you lean towards the TCL 75X10 75" 4K Ultra HD Mini LED QLED Android TV over this one because of the better visuals and lack of 8k content?

          Really appreciate your help.

            @Kendrite13: I wouldn’t personally go for a TCL, too many complaints about low quality, laggy menus and poor support. You get what you pay for, it’s only 2 grand.

            However, if had to choose between them, definitely the 4K Mini LED with your use case, with expectation of using it for 5 years then upgrading to 8K unit at that point if it becomes ubiquitous.

              Really? Because from what I've seen they get pretty good reviews - in their market segment.
              I got a 65" TCL for $630 and it's the best $630 TV I've ever seen. Is it as good as an LG OLED? Of course not. But nor do I expect it be because it's $3000 cheaper.

      Friend has the 65inch version of this TV. While 8K content is so so nice and crisp but there is not many of these videos around. The UI and some apps are very laggy (I assume due to 8K resolution and weak CPU). Soundbar is decent.
      When watching 8K content the bottom of the TV gets very warm. 4K content looks not better or worse than my 4K TV.
      I don't know X10 but in theory mini LED should be a better tech, as you get many dimming zones you get much brighter (panel is less dense due to only 4K pixels rather than 8K) and better viewing angle. If I was to buy I'd prefer Mini led over 8k. given it actually delivers on those promises.

          We returned the LG CX 65 inch last year and went back to our old 60 inch Sammy purely because we found 65 inch too small for the money paid. Couldn't afford the 77 inch. Ever since we realised that even though the OLED produced incredible picture, it's the size that really makes for that real upgrade feel.

    Proof that 8k is marketing BS on panels of this size.. It always pulls in enough people at the start though to make the hype worthwhile.
