TCL x3 Need reviews!!!

[wolf112]

helo
i am looking to buy proper 4k HDR 10 led but couldnt find any good led at reasonable price
i know samsung Q8 FN series is best out there but i dont think they are available...
so i think at that point tcl x3 65 inch qled is only option.....
how is the local diming and picture quality of that led
plz share reviews ....

i would recommend you buy the LG oled instead either the B7 or C7 both are available locally

the x3 costs 210k for the 65in model its better to get the 55in B7 instead that will cost you 175-180k

I have an X3. You basically will get what you pay for. Whirlpool forums has perhaps the most users for the X3, I'll link here

Pros:
Price
Picture Quality (though Qdot is basically a sham, just like Samsungs)
HDR is good, not the best, but if you have never seen HDR content you will be impressed
Sound, though it lacks punch the built in sound is very good
Micro-dimming. Though this is an edge lit panel, turning this on will produce some difference. Note it does not play nice with all HDR content.
CEC works
Voice commands work very well


Cons:
This is a edge lit panel, thus no FALD
Being edge lit, back light bleed is an issue. (whirlpool link has some pictures)
Judder reduction usually causes more problems like on most panels. The set will have issues appropriately playing formats that is not native to its refresh rate (60Hz).
Android OS. This is not TCL's fault but is inherent to all Android TVs (sony included). The responsiveness is not the issue, neither is stablility it is the quirks e.g. some ports simply stop working, requiring a power-down to bring them back to life. Some apps can't be removed.

I have not seen a better 4k HDR TV in its price, even in Australia (Except maybe hisense). But remember you do get what you pay for.

If you can afford an OLED go for it. Though it has its own set of specific issues. There is not much of a difference between Samsung QLED and this TV in terms of features, but there is in terms of what you spend

(has both X2 and X3, X3 being a curved version of X2)


NOTE: The only Full Array TVs by TCL are there US specific models (Specially the Roku models)

I have very little experience with Sony's, from what i have seen the x900 series is impressive and this model should offer FALD (though how many zones I do not know). What would you be primarily doing with the TV? That would make the decision somewhat easier to make.

i have seen sony KD-55x800E..U have to turn off the HDR and select only BT.2020 HDR colours for HDR movie, bcz it has ips panell it gives bad contrast and poor black uniformity in dark scene,,,
so looking for good led which give better contrast and brightness(500nits or better) for HDR movies
there is no match for XBR version of 55x900Fbut dunt know what is in its KD version bcz i know in asian models of any electronic things they always troll u in one way or another

when i was buying a tv i was confused between x3 ks8000 and x900e , i had almost the same budget as you around 200000 ,picture quality mein zameen asmaan ka fark hai between ks8000 and x3 the picture quality is soo much better its not even comparable ,and x900e was only available in 65 and that was around 320000 so it was out of my budget ,if your spending 200000+ on a tv dont settle for mediocrity if you can find an oled like the guy above said go for the oled in 55, when i bought a ks8000 5 -6 months ago couldnt find an oled in islamabad on local shops

picture quality is better in ks 8000 or in tcl x3?
i was interested in oled before..but screen burn in is a major issue in them..and i mostly run windows on led so desktop static image will burn the colour with in a month
..about KD-x900F or 930f..are they still using ips panel?bcz ips would be very poor choice to get..

Ks8000 is much much better its not even close
