TCL was founded in 1981,It is the only TV company in China with panel、chip、mold、Complete machine manufacturing capacity,Its panel factory Huaxing Optoelectronics is also the world's top five panel manufacturers,It has a strong vertical integration advantage。 TCL is the first independent TV brand to go abroad, gaining the third share in the highly competitive North American market, the fourth share of global brands, and the second share of domestic brands, second only to Hisense.
 
TCL has been making efforts in high-end products in recent years,It is a follower of the SamsungQLED camp,There is great similarity in product form and technical publicity,If you feel that SamsungQLEDTV is too expensive,You can consider choosing TCL。 QLED equipped with quantum dot technology has been almost synonymous with high-end in recent years, adding a quantum dot film behind the LCD backplane is of great help to improve the color gamut coverage, but for other indicators, that layer of quantum film is powerless, and even with a high color gamut screen, whether it can finally present accurate colors depends on the image quality adjustment.
 
TCL lowered the price of QLED to less than 10,000 yuan,55Inch curved QLED TV Q960C is only available for five or six thousand yuan。 QLED is not a panacea for image quality, and it also needs a good backlight and tuning to match. For QLEDTV at this price,In addition to color,Can't have too high expectations for its brightness、Light control level andHDReffect,Cost is an important factor restricting picture quality。 Q960C Although it is a QLED TV, the level of light control is not at the same level as the Samsung Q series of 10,000 yuan or 20,000 yuan. The principle that you get what you pay for is difficult to be subverted in the fiercely competitive TV field, and it is more realistic to see it as an LCD TV with optimized color performance.
 
TCL TV product line is very complex,There are completely different models online and offline,Isolated from each other,This is the measure taken by most independent brands to protect offline channels。 There are mainly X/C/Q/P/A and other series, X/C/P series are mainly sold offline, and Q/A series are mainly sold online. Unlike most brand numbers that represent the year or grade, the numbers at the end of the TCL model are just to distinguish the style and have no other meaning.
 
Flagship QLED series
 
The high-end sub-brand "XESS", which "serves only 1% of high-end users", is the X series, which represents TCL's highest level of technology and design, and all systems are equipped with quantum dot technology. X2, X3, X5 are consumer-grade flagships, supporting high-specification Dolby Vision HDR effects, priced at more than 10,000 yuan, mainly offline. X6Positioning home theater,Equipped with more than 1,000 LED light sources"Galaxy multi-zone backlight",85Inch quantum dot giant screen,With Harman Kardon7.1.4Twelve-channel surround sound,A large number of wood materials are used,The hardware level is not inferior to the flagship products of Samsung Q9F or Sony Z9D,The price is close to six figures。
 
X2 is a flat quantum dot TV、X3 is a curved version of X2,And X5 is a new product that replaced X3 in 2018,Adopt a three-sided bezel-less curved screen design,Thickness only4.9mm,Based on a whole metal brushed panel,Wooden materials are used as embellishments,The materials are very exquisite。 The six Harman Kardon speakers on the base show the extraordinary level of sound and support "Dolby Atmos", but the ultra-thin design must use a side-entry backlight, which is a difference between the light control effect and the direct dot matrix backlight. The size of the X5 is 55-75 inches, and it is sold from about 10,000 yuan. And X1 is the founder of the X series,The specifications are higher than the former,In 2018, it was updated toX1S,Equipped with288 divisions with peak brightness1500nits of Galaxy backlight system,Although there is no X5 thin and beautiful,But the light control level is above X5,65The price of the curved version is more than 20,000 yuan。
 
LCD TV series
 
The C series is positioned as "urban blues", which is slightly lower than the X series, and is mainly launched offline, although it can also be purchased online, but the price is significantly higher than offline. In 2018, the new product is C6, although it is not equipped with quantum dot technology, but the color gamut coverage can also reach the level of 98% NTSC, and the level of light control is excellent, but the price is high, and the cost performance is not as good as that of Q960C and Q1 and Q2 launched online. The shape of the C series and the Q series is very similar, the Q960C has more quantum dot technology than the C5, and the Q series is all launched online, which is very cost-effective.
 
The P series is positioned as a "young and trendy choice", and it is also TCL's overseas flagship product. Among them, the "P series Roku TV" (P6 model in China) was selected as the "Best Purchase Model of 2018" by CNET, a review media, for its excellent price/performance ratio. In China, the P-series replaced the P5 with the new P6 in 2018, and there are sometimes more discounts when purchased offline. But in terms of cost performance,It is also a series,Most models are in the price range of 2,000 to 4,000 yuan,A950C lowers the threshold of 65-inch curved TV to only 4,000 yuan。
 
In order to meet the Internet TV,TCL also launched the Internet sub-brand"Thunderbird",The brand positioning is younger,The design is more avant-garde,The screen size is relatively small,But the picture quality specifications are not low,And the configuration of processor memory and other configurations is stronger than TCLThe products at the same price。
 
Built-in system
 
Ease of use is a major advantage of TCL compared with the three foreign giants, TCL uses its own customized Android system, most models have voice search, voice control function, this is not a gimmick, it is very troublesome to type and search with a remote control, with voice control, even the elderly and children are very easy to use. TCL has no ads when it starts up, and it can be set to automatically jump to the set-top box when it starts, which can be regarded as a clear stream among its own brands. Its content platform is connected to Tencent Video, which has the most abundant resources,In recent years, most of the movies, TV series and even variety shows can choose4K clarity,UIInterial area under the interface、4K special area、Dolby special area, etc.,Make the sound and picture quality functions introduced above really practical。
