    Does this support any kind of adaptive sync? The specs says it has a gaming low latency mode and hdmi 2.1 but it doesn't outright say so.

    • mattkirkey on 23/10/2023 - 20:07

      Not 100% sure, here's what I found from the site. Does have FreeSync so likely has it some sort of adaptive sync.

      "Dual Line Gate presents a 120Hz refresh rate and supports Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) up to 120Hz*, offering players smoother and more immersive gameplay."
      *up to 2K

      "The AMD FreeSync technology promises a seamless gameplay experience, putting an end to choppy visuals and broken frames. It is regarded as the next breakthrough in PC and console gaming."

      "Unlock your gaming potential with Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM). Enjoy a smooth and responsive gaming experience with minimised input lag, giving you the edge in fast-paced action and immersive RPGs. Discover the ultimate gaming experience with TCL's low input lag and quick response times."

      Ive had a chance to use what looked very big and newish TLC TVs and I have nothing bad to say about the pictures quality, Its OK for me for the price. I've never had a super expensive premium TVs so luckily I dont have a comparison.

      But the remotes have been HORRIBLE! And you really have to find the exact place to point it at.
      Is it just my misfortune or is this standard for TLC?

      • TravHall on 23/10/2023 - 22:22

        The remote that came with the 85P745 is awesome, no issues like you've mentioned and the other remotes for our 75P8M and 65P8MR are fine, so perhaps unlucky.. not sure

      • CY on 23/10/2023 - 23:06
        +2

        @ripprind I got a 75" TCL (2nd hand for $500) and I kinda have the same issue. Originally I thought it was the batteries in the remote .. but i've found the sweet spot to point it at (which is basically infront of the TV).

        Lucky I don't use it much otherwise it would drive me insane.

        The lag on the operating system on the other hand .. OMG .. literally have to turn the TV 5 minutes before you want to use it before it loads up and gets to where you want it to be LOL.

        • ripprind on 24/10/2023 - 21:00

          yeah, I suspected that the battery compartment was built in a way that made it difficult to have a solid contact on the + end.
          On these TVs the IR receiver seem to be in the corner. The TV was in no way obstructed, but pointing more than 10 degrees off the sweetspot made it unresponsive
          also buttons had to be pressed very hard. And menu was slow ( but I've seen worse :))

          +1

          I've been researching as I'm looking for one. C3, S90C are both good values and have their pros and cons. Sony A95K/L will cost more, but marginally better because of processing.

          • Mi2 on 23/10/2023 - 22:58

            @KaitoKid1412: Personally I wouldn't consider S90C as it's a mess in terms of software and hardware.
            Been using KS8000 since 2016.
            Last time I checked it had better colours and brightness than LG CX from 2020 based on a YouTube overview. Even G3 can barely match it in terms of brightness.
            I think an OLED with higher brightness would be the perfect option for me.
            Might go with G3 if the price drops low enough.

    Recently purchased the 85P745 and it's awesome.

    For this price, the same model 65" is a ripper.
    Just note a couple of things before you buy it.

    If you plan to use the TV OS for apps, then don't buy it.
    You will likely get upset with what many complain at this model spec about a laggy user experience.

    So if you're going to use a Fire TV or another system, ie HTPC, Foxtel etc etc, you won't be disappointed.

    I've already signed up for the $100 cashback and it's been approved, no issues at all.

    If I didn't already have older TCL models 65 and 75 - both using a Fire TV and Foxtel, I would buy this without a second thought.

    • mattkirkey on 23/10/2023 - 20:49

      The 85P745 has really a laggy OS ?

      • TravHall on 23/10/2023 - 20:59

        Hardly use it and definitely don't load any apps on the TV OS, I use a Fire TV for all apps, perfect combination.

        For basic TV use, power on, settings and selecting Inputs I've had no issues, fast power on is awesome too.

        • mattkirkey on 23/10/2023 - 21:00
          +1

          Fair enough. I've got the Fire Stick 4K Max so that should work a treat if the OS is crap.

    • Jared17 on 23/10/2023 - 21:04

      Hi

      I dun use foxtel or fire TV. How about casting Netflix or youtube from a smart phone or iPad on this TV? Any issues?

      • TravHall on 23/10/2023 - 22:12
        +4

        Seriously, I wouldn't touch these TVs without another OS in use.

        Let's weigh it up… Purchase a $50 Fire TV while on special, run all your apps through it or Foxtel and you will have scored an absolute bargain, never look back and it's happy days.

        Ignore it and try to use the TVs OS, you're in for an unhappy experience and will complain how crap the TV is.

        Its that simple and super cost effective, because a Fire TV even on a top of the line model is a step above for TV app or Kodi use, it's a pretty awesome system and fast.

    • mortyestmorty on 23/10/2023 - 22:01

          In this case I would approach the retailer to help generate a replacement invoice with your name.

          I tend to believe retailer has obligation to help you. If the retailer advertises TCL cashback deal on their website then they have the obligation to ensure that your cashback is not rejected because of the retailer's action.

          Otherwise you can tell them you're only left with option to seek help from ASIC:-)

              JB HiFi isn't part of the promotion, but they're offering their own $100 gift card to price match.

              Also, for most of these promotions, you need a Tax Invoice from the retailer with your name on it, not just the card details/transaction statement. If you get a Tax Invoice from wherever you bought it from, and they're a "Participating Retailer", you should get your cashback.

    Bum..back to $879. Energy usage on this aint too bad. But I think the Roku one would be a better GUI, and even a little more efficient.

    Is $879 still a good price?
