The difference in the scenes with avatar and the contrast and tone mapping is crazy. The Sony has a much better image just from those movie scenes alone.
Would love to see a 98inch shootout. Q80c, this Sony, qm8 and Hisense 98inch for 2023. I have a c2 83 inch, my next tv will 100% be a 98 inch qled. Although I’m hesitant and have reservations to go from OLED to a qled
Great idea. I have an 85 inch Samsung QN90A that I love and I have my eye on having a 98” inch TV in the near future. Would love to see that comparison .
One thing you failed to mention is how long each TV will last before any processing failures. My experience has been that Sony TVs and DVD players last MUCH longer than many other brands. I bought a Hisense TV not long ago and it only lasted 2 years. My current Sony is going on 3 years and has had zero problems. Something to think about in addition to price points.
I have a Sony 75X940C that I bought new almost 8 years ago that is still going strong. I moved it into my bedroom since I just bought the 85X93L for my living room.
What tv do people think is best for bedroom? I'm thinking like a 65 inch? What do you all recommend? So many choices out there now I'm worried to make the wrong choice when I could have made a better one. I don't want to be disappointed with my purchase wishing I had bought something else, after the fact, you know?
Thank you. Very helpful. Maybe on future 98 inch comparisons you can spend 30 seconds showing the cable management of the TVs and how the TVs show on the wall when viewing the mounted TV from the side?
I agree. I just bought a 75 inch Sony X80L after 13 years of owning my previous Sony KDL model 60 inch. Sony rules the roost in the world of tvs. You'll obviously pay more but that's for a good reason.
The 83" to 85" TV is still the most cost effective size for a big screen. And there are Basic sets to fit the lowest Budgets ($850 Hisense), and Baller sets to break the bank (LG G3 OLED.)
@@acidangel111I just bought a c2 83 inch for considerably less than a current priced c3, a90j, s95c, s90c 77 inch. With the c2 being virtually identical to the c3 in picture quality I’m over the moon
@@acidangel111 Good point. The 83” LG G3 OLED doesn’t even have the new MLA (Micro Lensing Array) tech. The 77” has it. Not to mention 77” in isn’t much smaller than 83”.
B is really giving the good advice here. Jen would approve. Why don't you take your channel and business into how to build out a space for a 98" TV. In a dedicated family / media room. What to buy from Ikea, what kind of seating? Keep putting the pugs in the videos.
I have the same wall mount . Install scewed up on one screw and when i got home from camping found my 88" tv floated into the center of the room come to find the one bolt came out and the frame warped and bent a little i tapped a hole in stub and zipped a new bolt in and it sucked back i to place and is fine those wall mounts are solid .
Question 🙋♂️ I have my first and only Samsung led from about 15 years ago still doing great. 98” TCL is what I am about to buy but what is the life span of a tv like this?
65” Seems like a great TV size for most rooms. I just don’t understand why people would want to spend so much money on what has to be a pain in the ass to install in your home. Then you have to deal with removing it at some point in the future when you want to upgrade. If you can afford these tv’s you can probably afford to upgrade every 4 or 5 years.
Informative review especially the mount suggestions as I plan for a giant upgrade. My takeaway is still wait for future minileds and honestly I want that 100” number

For half the price I'll buy TCL within a heartbeat! I have had 3 TCL TVs for years, and I never encountered any quality issues. However, SONY I had bad experiences, a lot of problems after three years of usage.
These anecdotes are of rather dubious value. If you had 30 copies of two different models for a total of 60 TVs to compare you are starting to get to a point where, if there are significant differences, they are likely to show up... In practice, we'd need hard data. But one would think it wouldn't be technically that hard to establish such data. If regulators actually wanted, you know, an efficient market. For some strange reason they hardly ever seem to think of such things, and we are left having to guess. I bought a Sony last time around, replacing a Samsung from 2010, but only because by 2022 I tired of waiting for the TV to fail and wanted more bigger better, and I came across what seemed to be a really good sale on a Sony 85". It remains to be seen how long it lasts, but I am very happy with it so far despite some flaws.
I appreciate all the work and effort the both of you put into creating content for the channel. An obvious hobby that many of us share, but you all take to a higher level. I pulled the trigger on the 98-inch TCL. Now an even better price point at 4K at Amazon and BB made it too easy. I also purchased the HumanCentric Full Motion Articulating mount. The mount is up, just waiting for the television stork to drop off the TV today! I hope it includes install! lol
@darynm Dude....jealous for no reason 😂. Congrats, man. I'd have to switch my entire living room around for that 98 inches as of now, sitting 11 feet from my 77 & it still seems big. I'm guessing you're sitting 16 feet
Thanks for this detailed comparison, B. I cannot see having a 98" TV, given my set-up, but I appreciate your thoughts. For all that money, I would go 77" LG G3.
Thx B I bought the C735 98-inch. It's very good. I was worried since I'm coming from:) Panasonicvt65:) Oled cx 77:) The Tcl is wow!!! It's the size. Your right.
@@winciso Nebraska furniture Mart in the colony in Texas ,you have to buy it on tax free day -825.00 which is the first holiday in May they gave me an additional 500 off of that but made me buy a five year warranty so no biggie plus I got 1250 back with a particular credit card
Go Packs!!! Looking to get big 98 inch Tv for rec room. So many options. Trying to stay under 5k. Sony x90l makes sense? Mainly looking to watch Nfl, nba, youtube videos.
I'd probably have to completely rearrange my living room setup to use a TV that big, the mount I have now wouldn't do the weight or vesa spacing. We also have 24" inch on center wall studs. I have the original mini led TCL here and a Z9K. I still like my TCL in my bedroom now, the Sony is in the living room. Of course the Sony is way better but the TCL was like 3 times cheaper and about 90 percent as good as the Sony. You pays yer money and takes yer chances but considering how similar they look I'd buy the TCL. The Z9K is on a whole other level picture and price wise so you either want the benefits it offers and can afford it or you get a TCL, save a bunch of money, and be happy.
I know the Samsung 98" QLED 4K Q80C is not shipping yet - would love your thoughts on this upcoming release. Looking for best movie performance. Thanks for your content including letting us know the best wall mount for 98" systems.
Very good review. But like many of these reviews of the TCL 754, they don't mention the very strong glare and Reflections coming off the screen of the TCL 754. The off angle viewing of the TCL is very poor. If you sit to the right or the left you lose brightness contrast and the picture looks washed out. Tcl's video processing is mediocre at best. If all you're going to do is watch 4K material the TCL will be fine. However if you're going to be watching cable,,SDR, streaming and other signals that need video processing upscaling you will be disappointed. It's unfortunate that these reviews do not include a comparison of the two TVs ability to upscale lower-resolution video signals.
I’m wondering why you didn’t point out that TCL make the 3 screens available for the Sony, Samsung and TCL models? I would like to know why they use the same manufacturer for the panels and then use different chipsets to provide a different experience?
this is my question get this over a short throw ? for a 100" screen? i was looking at LG without dolby vision its hard to justify the LG c3 97" after seeing this comparison also.
When I compare flat screen tvs at Walmart I look at the surface reflection when the TV's are off . And I have noticed on some of the screens it is a wavey reflection and other sets the reflection is flat and not wavey . I always get the flat reflection tv. That's in the top three brands.
Hey B! Enjoying the content and I was considering the TCL 98" TV, but ultimately I ended up going for the Samsung QN90B 85" instead. I am upgrading from a LG OLED 65" CX, and I think I would prefer a very acceptable 85" size and then better hardware with the chosen Samsung over the TCL.

I'll be picking up the "TCL 98" Model: 98QM850G 4K MINI-LED QLED TV" from Best Buy soon as they've assigned it a Best Buy SKU#! Currently have the Sony 83" XR-A90J.
One aspect i didnt think about before seing them in real life is that you need a really really high quality image to make it look good at that screen size. You won't get this from a typical streaming service, therefore I rather got a 77'. Will go bigger when everything is 4k/8k.
Not sure paying double for slight difference in picture is worth it for Sony...TCL got this via split decision. Sony, Samsung and LG needs to be more competitive with pricing and innovation...Again, great comparison guys!
Sony easily wins this battle! You have to pay for what you get even at double the price. If you have the money the Sony is a no brainer. The difference is very clear. Just wait for this $10,000 Sony to go down in price to $8,000 during Black Friday or even next year around March or April when Sony closes out this model. Note: The cheap 98" TVs I've seen don't look very good when watching regular TV content and sports. If you want a great 98" TV you really should get a Sony because of the much more clearer and better picture!
the problem with the TCLs and the Hisenses of the the world isn't picture quality. It's the reliability. I've had both and the main issue is that the backlight dies out too soon. From now on, I'm sticking with either Sony, Samsung or LG.
Going to wait until mini-LED or OLED come into the mainstream in a 98-100" size. I just can't give up my Sony A90J 83" picture quality to gain the next size up until it's on par or better picture wise.
Sony needs to up their game in the number of dimming zones. They need to increase the zone count MASSIVELY to fix specular highlights and blooming issues.
@@michael-4k4000 The Hisense U8K when calibrated will smoke the Sony LED tvs...On the smaller size TVs this year Hisense is kicking their azz already with their mini dots on only an 8 bit processor/panel for less than half the price...The only Sony's that beats the U8K are their OLEDs...Sony needs to buckle up and make more advances in technology or TCL & HiSense are gonna take over the industry...Next year HiSense is coming out with an OLED and a 16 bit processor/panel...Sony can't live on just their name brand anymore...
The time you guys invest in tvs for us doods is fantastic. Gee with all these amazing tvs its never been harder to spot a winner. For me its out of the QN95C and the G3. But then theres the A95L about to hit. Am I in the right park in a bright room?
the sony has way better picture quality but not worth doble the price for me but my only worries is if the tcl will last im afraid of the quality sharp is coming back with a bang to america and they had good lasting tv with good prices
Do u know if the 98” TCL S5 s class any good just came out recently and there is NOBODY reviewing it not even google ????? Please HELP if u think the it’s a good tv because it’s not qled but just led and on sale for ONLY $2999 for 98” today..$2000 off almost half price thx..
I got a 75 sony x90k. Amazing tv. For those that don't know it's a google tv. I hooked up my logitech bri webcam and I can do video chat through google meet.
You can also freeze the video at other parts, and then the TCL has the clearer image. Seems to me that this is due to the videos not being 100% frame to frame.
I went to ikea, there Besta series are very nice,tons of options however the MAX width on any besta config is 15”. The 98” will work but you will have 3” overlap as the legs are 18.25 “ long.
My parents got a TCL TV and we're having a problem with turning the TV off and it resets the TV back to the main manual where we have to select the HDMI port that has TV. My mom has a tumor and having trouble remembering how to select the HDMI and back to the TV and my dad's getting mad at her because of it. How can I permanently set the TCL TV to the HDMI port with TV so my mom won't have to navigate the TV's main manual?
I know that 98 inches is meant for far away viewing distance. But when you compute the PPI equating to 44.96 PPI means that you can see the pixels when you are near enough to these TVs.
Interesting! TLC and up and coming brand, and Sony... A brand that has been proven for a long time. And to top that off... A Bravia! Top or near the top of their lines. It'd be interesting to 'revisit' these two after one year, three years, five years and 'beyond' LOL My money would be on the Bravia!
The difference in the scenes with avatar and the contrast and tone mapping is crazy. The Sony has a much better image just from those movie scenes alone.
But the Sony is such TRASH!!!! They haven't made a single good product in years
Oh, you mean the local dimming, which is important, and the TCL is much better, because who already looks so extremely at home from the side
yeah but Im not shelling extra 5k for that
hands down from the start the Sony obviously has more of a realistic and superior image quality

Sony for me! Thank you! Sony user here since i was a kid! Thank you!
Greate comparison and wall mounting tips as usual! Would love to see how Samsung Q80C vs this TCL or Sony
Any recommendations for 75inch TVs? Something on a budget but with a good spec.
Maybe consider the TCL QM8, probably under 2k and should look great for most people.
Thank you for sharing this review. Can’t wait for the next 98 inch version coming comparison.
I really want to play spider man 2 on that tv holy shit
Not sure paying double for slight difference in picture is worth it for Sony...TCL got this via split decision. Sony, Samsung and LG needs to be more competitive with pricing and innovation...Again, great comparison guys!
Can you compare TCL 98 vs Samsung 98-Inch Class QLED 4K Q80C?
Sony easily wins this battle! You have to pay for what you get even at double the price. If you have the money the Sony is a no brainer. The difference is very clear. Just wait for this $10,000 Sony to go down in price to $8,000 during Black Friday or even next year around March or April when Sony closes out this model. Note: The cheap 98" TVs I've seen don't look very good when watching regular TV content and sports. If you want a great 98" TV you really should get a Sony because of the much more clearer and better picture!
the problem with the TCLs and the Hisenses of the the world isn't picture quality. It's the reliability. I've had both and the main issue is that the backlight dies out too soon. From now on, I'm sticking with either Sony, Samsung or LG.
Going to wait until mini-LED or OLED come into the mainstream in a 98-100" size. I just can't give up my Sony A90J 83" picture quality to gain the next size up until it's on par or better picture wise.
Sony needs to up their game in the number of dimming zones. They need to increase the zone count MASSIVELY to fix specular highlights and blooming issues.
85X95K
@@michael-4k4000 Maybe when they will get a lot more zones.
@@michael-4k4000 The Hisense U8K when calibrated will smoke the Sony LED tvs...On the smaller size TVs this year Hisense is kicking their azz already with their mini dots on only an 8 bit processor/panel for less than half the price...The only Sony's that beats the U8K are their OLEDs...Sony needs to buckle up and make more advances in technology or TCL & HiSense are gonna take over the industry...Next year HiSense is coming out with an OLED and a 16 bit processor/panel...Sony can't live on just their name brand anymore...
I have just ordered tcl 98"...i hope i will get best thing for best price.
You Will bro for sure
The time you guys invest in tvs for us doods is fantastic. Gee with all these amazing tvs its never been harder to spot a winner.
For me its out of the QN95C and the G3. But then theres the A95L about to hit. Am I in the right park in a bright room?
I love your channel keep on going! Big fan here !
Thanks for watching!
@@jenwalshwellbalancedlifestyle no problem
The Sony picture is better here on my small computer monitor, but the TLC is good.
The video with two boys on a scooter, what's the title?
The movie is Luca. It's a cute family movie from Disney
the sony has way better picture quality but not worth doble the price for me but my only worries is if the tcl will last im afraid of the quality sharp is coming back with a bang to america and they had good lasting tv with good prices
Do u know if the 98” TCL S5 s class any good just came out recently and there is NOBODY reviewing it not even google ????? Please HELP if u think the it’s a good tv because it’s not qled but just led and on sale for ONLY $2999 for 98” today..$2000 off almost half price thx..
How much better is the q851 vs the xl90
If you have a 98" TV and you are watching it off axis you are doing something wrong
Please review the Samsung Q80C. I'm in the UK and thinking of ditching my LG 83C1 and UST projector for it.
Sony vs TCL ? Are you for real. Jen Smash that button
I got a 75 sony x90k. Amazing tv. For those that don't know it's a google tv. I hooked up my logitech bri webcam and I can do video chat through google meet.
Which one will you keep?
Between 2:55 and 3:00 do several freeze frames and compare the 2 TVs. Big difference in PQ.
You can also freeze the video at other parts, and then the TCL has the clearer image. Seems to me that this is due to the videos not being 100% frame to frame.
@@Schlock3000 9:54 to 10:00 the TCL is missing 1/2 of the detail in the water as compared to the Sony.
Thanks B and Jen.
Is that a vertical band I'm seeing after the 2:33 - 3:20 mark, on the TCL?
25 by 12 fit hall size which TV will perfectly fit? Budget 2 lakh
Do you plan to get TCL QM8 98" TV for review?
I would love to own either one.
The TCL looks blurry next to the Sony.the Sony looks way sharper. Also, the Sony has much more detail in it's picture.
You must have magic eyes then...
@@Schlock3000 Watching on a 300 inch projection screen
@@docwho10th88 Because you‘re blind, obviously.
I would love to see a samsung q80c 98" review. I was looking on your channel but you don't have it 😢
How come the sony looks so much smaller?
Definitely not cheap! Huge units!
At 9:54 you can see the real beauty of the Sony ❤
Great review and honest appraisal of each tv
@btheconsumer being that this model is similar to the Sony how would you view TCL’s Q7 to Sony’s 90k??
You should've added the link for the IKEA stand. It is hard to find a stand that is wide enough to acomodate a tv that wide.
I went to ikea, there Besta series are very nice,tons of options however the MAX width on any besta config is 15”. The 98” will work but you will have 3” overlap as the legs are 18.25 “ long.
How are these compared to the hundred inch Sony you did not mention it
Can you do a 98" X90L vs 98" QM8
My 50 inch seems small but almost the right size.... I think a 80 to about 98 inch should be perfect but depends on brand makers.
What tcl tv is this....in market i see c735 98 only
Nice. If only they're not so expensive .....
My parents got a TCL TV and we're having a problem with turning the TV off and it resets the TV back to the main manual where we have to select the HDMI port that has TV. My mom has a tumor and having trouble remembering how to select the HDMI and back to the TV and my dad's getting mad at her because of it. How can I permanently set the TCL TV to the HDMI port with TV so my mom won't have to navigate the TV's main manual?
Is it me or does the Sony not look like it is a full 98 inches? The TCL looks bigger.
The Sony looks better screen wise too
Review the 7k samsung! Compare to tcl please!!!
Please review the Q80C, 98" V these and Q90C.
Yes please do a review on the Samsung 98 q80c I pre ordered it
Soon is better I could see it right away. Has more details in pictures.
I know that 98 inches is meant for far away viewing distance. But when you compute the PPI equating to 44.96 PPI means that you can see the pixels when you are near enough to these TVs.
They should’ve just made them 8K at that size honestly
Sony looks better but TCL looks brighter
Easily worth twice the price in this comparison, however the qm8 might be better at the same price - next comparison please
😂
I would go for the TCL honestly
Please review the Hisense 85" UX Series Mini-LED ULED TV
Thanks
Will You test 98 inch Samsung Q80C?
Best 55”- 65” TV for Call of Duty on PS5?
You can also get the samsung one right now
Interesting! TLC and up and coming brand, and Sony... A brand that has been proven for a long time. And to top that off... A Bravia! Top or near the top of their lines. It'd be interesting to 'revisit' these two after one year, three years, five years and 'beyond' LOL My money would be on the Bravia!
