My 65inch Hisense TV is one of my best purchases. The only drawback is when I have to move it so that I can clean my windows as my back is not as good as it once was. I would be unable to move a bigger TV by myself. So in the future I will be looking for a smaller TV or a projector.
I've really enjoyed my 65" Samsung KS8000 for the last 8 years. It's brighter and more vibrant than ever, but to my eyes, it looks like it has shrank in size (even though logical part of my brain says that it really has not). So . . . this year, I'm definitely in the market for the new 85" Samsung QN90D.
Maybe I'm in that niche consumer category, but I love it!... The more cinema-like, the better. Having your friends over towatch a movie, sports or play games on a 98" TV seems great! 🤩
Whilst I agree on the cinematic part, I also recommend a reasonable amount of brightness otherwise brightness will suck in general, HDR and especially DV will suck in their own respective manners. TCL does the 98 as a 98C845....that should do the trick, granted it's gonna cost.
I have the previous version 98R754 in my bedroom. No room is to small for the immersion. Only reason I dont have it in the living room is because ... OLED is in the living room. If only the 97" OLEDs were $3000...
That's what I'm debating on. I got a LG C1 65 inch OLED and want to upgrade to a huge tv but am debating either the 83 inch LG OLED or this 98 inch TCL. I think the huge TV will have more of a wow factor but OLED quality is so awesome.
@@BojanTomic You have a bunch of people over, you can't all sit dead straight on, a bunch of people will view it from harsher angles and you don't want the picture quality to degrade. That angle is almost 180 degrees but even less than that the picture quality degrades. That's why its important.
that oled tv was in the back, being protected from all light sources which is a hassle for oled, not only that, the mini led being in front means way worse angle due to the distance to the camera its way closer to the camera. Not fair comparison
I agree with @@tonypaca3015: The TCL provides shade for the OLED, so it doesn't need to deal with reflections (e.g. that light next to the tv) and the TCL is at a worse angle. After seeing both TVs in person, I still think the TCL looks way too washed out compared to the OLED or even the Samsung QE98Q80C and the sharpness was pretty bad (looked like a video games with AA turned off). Wouldn't recommend
I like to turn the lights off during a movie so the projector I have has worked really well for me. Plus it’s easy to put away out of sight when I’m done so that’s a huge bonus for me. Nice video buy the way.
Thanks! If you can have a darker space, a projector makes more sense and you don't get massive void when it's off. For the price though - this is great!
yeh im thinking of getting one for my apartment here in asia. Here the price is £1200 inc delivery and installation. You just cant beat size for immersion.
We are currently building a largeish Australian house. Earmarked a 98" for the living and 120" laser for the theatre. Not a TV snob, so something like this is bang on.
Love watching movies. I used to do Sunday movie nights with my family, and if only we had a TV that big, it would have made the experience 100 times better! I've got to get my hands on one.
I purchased a 98 inch TCL about 10 months ago. Not that model, but still a DLT as opposed to a Miniled or OLED. It superseded my premium 65 inch OLED from Panasonic. I the TCL I have is a couple of models up in the TCL from the one you’ve just reviewed. In my moderately lit 18 feet by 21 feet lounge, it does not look out of place, does not dominate the room and has absolutely no issues with brightness. I’m also really happy with its audio production. Good bass. Excellent dialog clarity and huge stereo separation. It does start to distort if turned up too loud, but, more than sufficient volume for my lounge.i don’t feel the need for a soundbar. I had that 98 inch TV installed mainly for the wife’s benefit and moved that 65 inch Panasonic OLED to our bedroom. Personally, if I could only have the TCL or the Panasonic, the TCL would win, all day long. My forte is 2 channel, premium hi-fi. I have a good friend who, now retired, used to run his own hi-fi/tv retail outlet. Although he is retired and has sold that retail outlet, he still has all his trade contacts. So I employ him to get any hi-fi or tv upgrades. He could not get the TCL for me, I had to go elsewhere. When he called round to install some upgraded hifi components and view my TCL, he told me, that he had just installed a 98 inch tv from a premium brand in the home of an A-list celebrity, who for confidentiality reasons I won’t name. He said that tv retailed at just over £20,000 and the picture quality on my 98 inch was equal to that £20,000 tv. I think that in the next couple years we are going to see the price of these XL TVs plummet. I think they will become commonplace in the typical working class, British household.
This is good to know. The living room in the house we just bought is fairly long. Do you have your TV at the 21ft side of the room or the shorter side? We're not looking for full immersion by any stretch but we want to make sure it's big enough to see in the longer end of the room for sports and such.
Where I placed that 98 inch tv was pretty well decided for me by room geometry. 1 long wall of my lounge is all window from above 3 feet. The other long wall has the door to the hallway at one end and the door to the kitchen at the other end. So, for practical reasons it had to go on a short wall. Plus that short wall contains the antenna outlets for both the RF and satelite signals. If you are thinking of a 98 inch TCL? Keep in mind that it’s ’off access’ viewing angles may degrade as you increase your angle from it. So opting for the short wall would minimise this effect. Plus, sitting at a distance of about 12 feet from the screen is equal to sitting in the 2nd row of the cinema! But, it would not look out of place on the long wall. Hope this helps?
I've been looking at this TV for a while, i have a small room that I'm going to turn into a home movie theater room, this tv is perfect for it, the brightness is not an issue because the room will be dark. Great video. 👍🏼
Well, they checked one of the boxes needed...which was upping these giant tv's from 2 to 4 total HDMI 2.1 ports. Now if they can also add Mini LED and 2000+ nits HDR at 98" or so and beat the prices of big Oleds...it will be a tough choice.@@Thetechchap
The problem I have with TCL and Hisense is that they look great the first few years of ownership but then the screen's uniformity diminishes quick and they're prone to banding colors.
Nice review thanks, I'm interested in this TV, but worried about what to put it on. What's the distance between the two feet? Can you recommend a stand for this too?
Hello I'm wanting to know if this can handle live sport as I watch a lot of football here in the UK.... The TCL has drawn me in with the price for 98 inch....I've a 75 LG NANOCELL that's been great but I'm looking for something budget friendly and big. Great review as it's difficult to get a UK based review so thank you. Many thanks
It is a 144hz panel, it can handle fast motion. I have the 65" version. But the default image is garbage. The TV does too much image processing. I disabled everything, beside frame interpolation. Get rid of improved black, sharpening, noise reduction, color improvements, etc. Otherwise the channels will look like blobs of colors with no detail. The setting are by input, so you will need to do this multiple times. I need a second TV, and I'm thinking of getting this one as main now that is a lot cheaper.
Hi. Thanks for the review! Do you recommend it to a dedicated movie room? We have a 75" QLED (living room) and a 65" OLED (bedroom) Samsungs. We have a movie room with a 5.1 sound system that we use occasionally, so i dont want to break the bank for this usage. Seen it in person at a local store with demo contect, the image looked surprisingly good!
If you really want an immersive experience, I would go bigger than the 40 degrees recommended by THX (which would be around 100 inches to an 85 inch TV). A 1:1 ratio of distance and diagonal is the minimum to get that cinematic picture
Interesting to see it's not mini-led oversea's... yet. For similar money in China you get the 98" in mini-led with the same 144hz VRR etc eg - TCL 98" T7H - with 627 dimming zones at roughly 1600GBP - TCL 98" Q9K - with 1536 dimming zones at roughly 2100GBP Tempted to get one, don't have the wall space though!
LG Oled 77" entry model (A series) tend to cost as much as the TCL 98" entry model (98T8B in Sweden). While the extra surface is tempting, i prefer the Oled blacks and colour reproduction. When i can have both at similar price (in a few years probably) I'll upgrade to a larger Oled 😊
I just don’t know how good tv’s are going to get. I have a 75” Samsung QN90A and I find the picture fantastic. Will there ever be the best or perfect picture?
I recently switched to the 100 inch U8K by Hisense for only $2999. it has been absolutely phenomenal and stunning for gaming and movies. I don’t care how much better OLED is but if it’s only 77 inches that’s awful.
I ABSOLUTELY would love to have a 98inch tv though I would much prefer the crisp image of LG G1 Oled that I have but because of the MASSIVE difference in cost, I would need to consider very carefully which I prefer.
Pioneer that would explain the Onkyo speakers on the television might be tempted to get one of these but only need the 75 inch the only thing that worries me about this tv is no backlight bar so you can turn this thing down manually
As a new viewer of your channel, might I ask a question that has a tentative connection to the subject matter … size and value ! So let me ask which would you choose… a 86” version ( trying to go like for like ) of this 2024 TCL or a LG 86QNED91 from 2021/2 ? The cost would be £1200 / 1100 and it’s brand new with full warranty ! My current tv is an eight yr old 55” Sony LCD that has seen better days about 9 yrs ago ! I would very much appreciate your thoughts . Thks
That's got to be an insane coincidences i have the same Sony 55 tv from like 2010 and was debating the same options finally after i saw the review today i took the jump and went with the 98 inch. id say if its like for like LG has the superb display.
I think you should have a Chord Qutest, good cables, and amp and speakers, hooked up. You'll need to balance the system, so it's not bright or warm. Qutest is perfectly neutral so an excellent starting point. Forget soundbars.
When the tv is so mediocre the ambient room is more colorful than the washed out display 🙈. Usually his videos have pumped up colors and colorful displays look downright cartoony.
I have a 6m x 6m (18ft x 18ft) extension that needs a wall mounted TV slap bang in the middle of the wall, I was thinking 86 inch LG led for £1400 but then came across this for £1600, which one to choose??? 🤔
@justsuf7068 man I dunno, these tvs are huge and they haven't been around for years, no one knows their longevity, my 48 inch LG basic TV is 8 years old and still works fine, but will these last? If they don't, they can't exactly just be taken to the repair shop lol too big for a car
Why would anyone use a tv's speakers or a sound bar? I use a surround sound receiver with svs ultra speakers with my 80 inch 1080p tv. Looking to upgrade to 4k and bigger tv.
@@Thetechchap thanks for correcting. i see yuh compensated mini led tech for the size. there is a hisense u7k or tcl qm8 mini led available in 85inch at same price . you shud have gone with that. 90 and 100ish inch tv with mini led are fairly new and highly expensive so they are in the range of 4 to 5 grand.
Dumb question - I have a G93SC connected to a Windows mini PC, to have the screen just turn off after a period do I just go into Power Settings on my PC? Or do I have to mess with the OSD? It has a Panel Care screensaver after 2 mins as I understand it but I want a fully blacked out low power state which will automatically turn on when I mess with the mouse/keyboard. Cheers.
Besides mobility the st projectors loose badly nowadays in all other aspects given fixed size of alr screen setup. I would pick last year's hisense 100u8kq or wait a little bit for current year's hisense 100u7kq to drop price (already at 2500e when you search). Or if you want better viewing angles wait for next model year of tcl or hisense with hva or ads pro panels respectively at those giant sizes.
The qm8 is the way to go atm, I have a 65 c1 and was going to get a 77 oled, but now I’m thinking that the mini led is so good from what I’ve seen, I’m going with the 85 qm8
So the brightness is poor and so are the black levels. On top of that this also impacts on the colour and vibrancy. Yet you say it is a good tv and not a "deal breaker". These factors significantly impact overall picture quality and are very much deal breakers! Picture quality is the most important factor when it comes to TVs. I appreciate TCL have sponsored you and you are making money out of this. However your TH-cam followers are the ones listening to you and keeping your channel going. You owe it to them to be upfront and honest even if this upsets a manufacturer. The truth is more important and what people want to hear. Not a skewed truth where you financially gain.
Hello Techchapman. Thank you for the review. This would be a great TV if it didn’t have the picture quality of a $150 TV. Pay 10x more fire 10x the size
Well, not all Americans live in barn-like mini-mansions. Like a lot of people, I live in a post-WWII starter house, an 1152-sq-ft Cape Cod style with a 726-sq-ft footprint. Excluding bathrooms, 4 rooms down- and 2 rooms upstairs. Allowing for doorways, windows, and half-enclosed staircase, the largest TV I can wall-mount is 60" (unless I mounted it directly opposite the 6-ft wide picture window, which is far from an ideal spot). There aren't any truly nice 58" or 60" TVs, so I stick to a 55" OLED. I could have a larger TV on a stand, but that takes up limited floor space from other furniture, and you have to allow for walking space. Theoretically I could mount a larger TV in the 2nd-floor bedrooms, which is not where you really want the largest TV in the house, and most of the wall space is canted at 45 degrees because in a Cape Cod the 2nd floor is essentially a furnished attic. That would actually be a convenient angle to watch TV from bed, but no one seems to make a wall mount designed to hold a TV flush to a downward-angled surface.

At 1:10, we can see the absolutely astonishing difference between an OLED and a regular LED TV.
Yeah the viewing angles are insane. I can't wait for MicroLED to come online and do everything OLED does without the drawbacks.
But why would you ever watch your TV from that angle, though?
@@BojanTomic You have a bunch of people over, you can't all sit dead straight on, a bunch of people will view it from harsher angles and you don't want the picture quality to degrade.

However maybe a 83” C3 / C4 would be a good compromise
Finally Reviewed on TH-cam ❤🎉
This generation is just so spoiled "BOOHOO MY 98 INCH SUPER CHEAP TV DOESNT HAVE GOOD ENOUGH COLOR..." 🤣
Ikr😂😂😂
What’s the difference with this tcl 98” q6 & tcl 98” s5??
How wide is your tv stand?
Thats just insane!
What tv stand is that?
I have a 6m x 6m (18ft x 18ft) extension that needs a wall mounted TV slap bang in the middle of the wall, I was thinking 86 inch LG led for £1400 but then came across this for £1600, which one to choose??? 🤔
I’m thinking exactly the same
@justsuf7068 man I dunno, these tvs are huge and they haven't been around for years, no one knows their longevity, my 48 inch LG basic TV is 8 years old and still works fine, but will these last? If they don't, they can't exactly just be taken to the repair shop lol too big for a car
How large is that floor rising projector screen he is showing?
Why can't you get this 98" or even 85" in Canada??
Why would anyone use a tv's speakers or a sound bar? I use a surround sound receiver with svs ultra speakers with my 80 inch 1080p tv. Looking to upgrade to 4k and bigger tv.
Can we talk about where to get the table?
You should also want to always keep a 40° field of view so with a 98” screen you should sit 10 feet or closer.
If you sat looking at a beautiful sunset, how much field of view is best? I personally feel like a bigger field of view is more immersive
Does this tv have App Store?
oh my bro, 98inch beast is just hanging on edge 😂
Edging
@@Thetechchap thanks for correcting. i see yuh compensated mini led tech for the size. there is a hisense u7k or tcl qm8 mini led available in 85inch at same price . you shud have gone with that. 90 and 100ish inch tv with mini led are fairly new and highly expensive so they are in the range of 4 to 5 grand.
I have a Sony! TV.
Indeed, the UI response on this TCL is very impressive.
I am disappointed in my Sony.
What does “power cable is detachable “ mean?
You should probably give options for what to sit it on xD
You should try out the 98 inch tcl X955 !!
This is a perfect tv for your garage or home bar for sports & parties then have your OLED for personal entertainment. 😉
Hey watch The It Crowd the episode about moss and the german...😂😂
How is the lightbleed on this?
"Who in their right mind would buy this" .. me.. the answer is me lol
Checkout TCL C755, QLed and Similar price range
When the mini-led version comes it's goodbye to OLEDs
Already available (sold out ATM though). Even bigger ones coming this year.
Dumb question - I have a G93SC connected to a Windows mini PC, to have the screen just turn off after a period do I just go into Power Settings on my PC? Or do I have to mess with the OSD? It has a Panel Care screensaver after 2 mins as I understand it but I want a fully blacked out low power state which will automatically turn on when I mess with the mouse/keyboard. Cheers.
Move the couch closer, same effect and lower power consumption.😊
Parallax is a thing. So is focal length.
I would consider a big screen tv instead of my projector for my home cinema. But maybe not this one
Saw this in a shop and I'll say your video doesn't even show how big it is. It is really huuuuuge.
It will be great for my family room but my theater room will always be an OLED
What brand is this???
tcl
Besides mobility the st projectors loose badly nowadays in all other aspects given fixed size of alr screen setup. I would pick last year's hisense 100u8kq or wait a little bit for current year's hisense 100u7kq to drop price (already at 2500e when you search). Or if you want better viewing angles wait for next model year of tcl or hisense with hva or ads pro panels respectively at those giant sizes.
Whoa what a huge tv but did the Champion just say the F bomb😂😅
his muscles don't stop growing. man getting swole af sheesh
How are the black levels
The bigger the TV, the bigger the fun.
The qm8 is the way to go atm, I have a 65 c1 and was going to get a 77 oled, but now I’m thinking that the mini led is so good from what I’ve seen, I’m going with the 85 qm8
Yeah QM8 with MiniLED would be my pick. Must admit I haven't seen one first hand just yet but I'd be interested in getting one in.
If you guys are willing to fork out some extra cash you can get the Mini Led version of this 98 inch tv with 3,000 nits for $3,500.
That's double the price, mind you
When the screen size increases, you cannot see well
£1499 at Argos now.
Bigger isn't always better, just ask your wife 😂🤣
😳
I feel like this is the fourth time you've done this.
I would like a 75 inch mini led tv but my bedroom is to small
I am bummed ooot that my media room ceiling isn't high enough to accommodate a 100 inch TV. God, why are you doing this to me?
Switched for far less = got a free review sample.
Can someone tell me what is the vesa?
So the brightness is poor and so are the black levels. On top of that this also impacts on the colour and vibrancy. Yet you say it is a good tv and not a "deal breaker". These factors significantly impact overall picture quality and are very much deal breakers! Picture quality is the most important factor when it comes to TVs. I appreciate TCL have sponsored you and you are making money out of this. However your TH-cam followers are the ones listening to you and keeping your channel going. You owe it to them to be upfront and honest even if this upsets a manufacturer. The truth is more important and what people want to hear. Not a skewed truth where you financially gain.
Perhaps for him the downside picture quality compare to the size of the screen is not deal breaker. I mean it’s 98 inch screen… 😅
@afrizanadim yes and nearly 2k!. You can purchase a lot of large tvs and projectors with that kind of money.
You want to see big , Check out Linus Tech builds his own 2000" Gaming TV.
Hello Techchapman. Thank you for the review. This would be a great TV if it didn’t have the picture quality of a $150 TV. Pay 10x more fire 10x the size
Well, not all Americans live in barn-like mini-mansions. Like a lot of people, I live in a post-WWII starter house, an 1152-sq-ft Cape Cod style with a 726-sq-ft footprint. Excluding bathrooms, 4 rooms down- and 2 rooms upstairs. Allowing for doorways, windows, and half-enclosed staircase, the largest TV I can wall-mount is 60" (unless I mounted it directly opposite the 6-ft wide picture window, which is far from an ideal spot). There aren't any truly nice 58" or 60" TVs, so I stick to a 55" OLED. I could have a larger TV on a stand, but that takes up limited floor space from other furniture, and you have to allow for walking space. Theoretically I could mount a larger TV in the 2nd-floor bedrooms, which is not where you really want the largest TV in the house, and most of the wall space is canted at 45 degrees because in a Cape Cod the 2nd floor is essentially a furnished attic. That would actually be a convenient angle to watch TV from bed, but no one seems to make a wall mount designed to hold a TV flush to a downward-angled surface.
I think at this size I’d just go for a projector
