    The 98" version of the S5 apparently has TCLs AIPQ Gen 3 processing engine normally found on the QM8 and Q7 , which maximizes the image . Bonus .

    Can’t understand why the all the 📺 doesn’t include a stencil. It would make installing much easier. Tape the 98” stencil to the wall and then drill out the holes and so on. And it’s easier to se where the tv will sit on the wall.

      The tv doesn’t come with a mount for the wall so how are they going to give you a stencil for it not knowing which of the 100 different mounts you can buy??

    Love ALL your vids. Nice to see these site installations......bc it addresses what your viewers most think about after viewing B's reviews & deciding on a TV. What do I do now?......installing, mounting, placing, etc. All the unknown issues that freak out consumers. Thank you so much for simply pointing out the obvious stuff professionals know about, but the public is just clueless about.

    I got the 55" tcl 5 series on black Friday for $148 right before covid... Then a week later I found the exact same TV at a pawn shop for $150. Snatched that up no brainer.
    They have served me well and only one of them just now 5 years later had the top led rows die which are $10 to replace from Ali express.
    I really want to upgrade but nothing is this cheap nowadays. Aliexpress order is in. If I can't fix it then I'll upgrade. This tv is awesome. I can't imagine it being 100 inches! Congrats!

    Mounting a huge (and expensive) TV seems like it's more of a hassle than it's worth, even if you want a cleaner presentation. Unless space is a huge concern, the go-to is to just save yourself the trouble and get a stand.

    I wished they made tv stand legs that attach to the VESA amount holes of 98 inch sized TVs. The biggest size that you can find goes up to 90 inches and 150 lbs Max weight. 😢 This would make getting a TV this size an option because 1.) not every one can mount a tv (window). 2.) not everyone has an ultra wide stand which is where most of these TVs design their feet to go to where you need a super wide stand. Only Samsung (80c) has a center mount pedestal the other companies have their feet super wide which dis includes them from consideration.

But, I came home from work, turned it on, all the channels were there, but no picture on any channel. WiFi was good, everything was good but nothing but a black screen.

With all the QLED, Mini-QLED, Neo-Qled and OLED not user which route to take. As many user looking to get the most bang for my buck, yet want Quality! I am not a gamer, but would take advantage in the future and purchase a gaming console. I mainly watch my tv channels via a streaming app, as well as watch TH-cam content and Prime video. Since BIG is the new norm, looking at either 85" or 98". Guidance Please!! Thanks in advance, keep those reviews coming !!
