You say this comparison is about most common use cases, but then once again do this 10,000 nit test...why? No one will have a 10,000 nit sourced video to play.
Wish a Movies Anywhere DV comparison could have been done, they get DV 4.0 content.
@@sunshinecyclingIt's about tone mapping and comparing the capabilities of each device, displays capable of 2000 nits or just below will not have to tone map much. So it's a stress test.
I would like gamut mapping to be considered, which display has issues with hues being off.
@@sunshinecycling It's to actually a message to Hisense to update their tone mapping algorithm - they watch my videos, and unless I mention it prominently, they won't know to improve on it next year.
@@TheCrucialQ It only works in DV IQ with ambient light sensor ON, and this is just screwy as it will be inconsistent from TV to TV and generally speaking, DV Bright is good enough
Love your videos FOMO. Been subbed for 3+ years now. Love your format and personality.
Im getting my 75 QM8 next Friday, thanks for this comparison it does really helped lots👍
I have owned a 75 inch U8K for 8 days. It is true that you can very easily adjust the colors, the shine. . . of this device. A week ago I received a very big software update. It took 30 minutes to load and install. Since this update, the image is more precise and the sound localization is improved. This TV is in my basement and its brightness is just right.
I appreciated your review. And I'm very happy with this TV that I paid $300 less than the regular price. And at this price, the delivery people installed it free of charge.
what is the firmware number from the new update? can you give me you picture setting, this would realy help me.
You have the ADS IPS panel on 75
How is it in terms of contrast, blacks and blooming?
The truth is, they’re all great televisions. Without a side by side comparison, the differences would be trivial. Most end users would be equally content with whichever.
Thanks for all your hard work. These are the two I have had my eye on for a while, and was waiting to see some reviews. Leaning towards the TCL.
Cheers from the Jersey Shore
Nice video as always Fomo. Are these tvs as good as the qn95c or better?
This review is superb!!!
I have had the 75" QM8 for a couple weeks now and am extremly happy with the purchase. It is the perfect living room media machine especially with all the windows I have. It's super bright in dark rooms to the point of overwhelming.
I'm getting one in 85-in by Black Friday 👍
@@SFBenjaminK I hope you enjoy it! I and my SO sure have.
*Why do you guys buy such big TVs? Is it a competitive thing? Whose is bigger? I use the rule for size compared to distance.*
55" - 7.7 feet away
65" - 9.1 feet away
75" - 10.5 feet away
85" - 12 feet away
*I have never seen a sofa that is 12 feet away from a TV. I have always had HUGE living rooms, but I always put my sofa the conventional 8 feet away from the TV. so, 65" is the biggest our huge living room will ever need. Unless I want to pay a bill for a chiropractor for my kids and wife.*
@@asmongoldsmouth9839 I went from a 49' RCA to a 75 and it was purely because I could. Now, I can't see going back for a living room. I can see things more clearly from places not directly in the sitting area and a lot of content is more immersive. It isn't theater levels of immersive per se, but it does the job. I knew it was the TV for me when I saw "Rear Window" by Hitchcock on it. The size made it more enjoyable to watch for sure.
@@asmongoldsmouth9839 one word: immersion
Hey Fomo, great videos, have you tried the smart calibration on samsung?? I just got the s90c 77 Inches and was wondering whether a pro calibration would be worth it over the smart things calibration.
13:05 QM8 artifacts can be eliminated if motion judder reduction is set to 0 but that's a bit too much stutter for me; setting it to 2 is a good compromise, although there's still a touch of stutter and artifacts. Which TV are you buying?
Leaning towards an 85 qm8 but I’d like to see the reallly high end Hisense
C845, coz QM8 not available.
Sony X85L
I bought the 65 inch QM8 2 weeks ago. LOVE IT!!
@@DogGuy19can I ask what type of content use? Do sports look good on it?
TCL QM8 is looking fantastic 👌🏾
Hi friend! Question: Do you think the U8K overexposure issue (i.e. struggle with brighter scenes at higher nits, if my description is correct) can be resolved through firmware updates or is it more of a fundamental issue?
Hello FOMO. I visit your channel when new tv's that interest me drop and am taken aback by your thorough and insightful knowledge in the industry. Thank you for providing the precludes for informed decisions. I do however struggle with understanding certain terms like "crushed blacks" ,"lifted shadows" , and "black/white bars." Have you previously provided a glossary video for viewers like myself with 0 knowledge in photo/video so that we may better keep up to speed with the subject?
Im going with U8K..Thanks
@fomo - what about motion handeling? How does the u8k perform, in that category?
For low bitrate content, is there a way on any of these TVs to automatically assign those settings to certain apps, e.g. CZcams? Or do they have to be manually changed every time you use a low bitrate service?
To me u8k looks the most natural .not overly contrast and dark in shadows
Hey Fomo - which tv has the most pronounced soap opera effect when the motion settings are cranked up?
I think it's important to note that the 75", according to Hisense, has an IPS panel. This would change the comparison because the qm8 has a VA panel at that size.
I will be looking at the 75 inch hisense U8K. I have a family and TVs with VA panels are not good for family watching because of the off-center problem. I would be willing to sacrifice a slight bit of contrast to make sure I have good off center viewing.
Thts what makes the hisense much better
@@wingedhussar1453 Nah man. QM8 is much better.
It's definitely not
@@TOPBOSSJAMESIt's not an IPS? Having bought the 75" U8K, I can confirm it is an IPS, but also doesn't impact the image because it's a GREAT TV.
Any idea if all the QM8 use the same type of panels? VA or IPS? Also the number of mini LEDs and dimming zones on the different sizes. Im trying to see if it justifiable getting the 85" or just the 75". Thanks
Excellent review... Thanks a lot... Unfortunately you didn't mention about the audio.... Since the pictures between the two TVs are very close. My choice is U8K since it has better audio....I am not interested in spending $500-$1000 more for a soundbar system... thanks 👍
U8K does have great audio, but the QM8 audio is also pretty good, and both are better than the QN95C
Have you released any videos on your meeting with Samsung for HDR10+ Gaming extensions
In three years time these two will replace two of the big three. Great vid brother!
Didn’t know you were a comedian as well Brian!! It’s probably the tech from the big 3 that’s been farmed by these knock offs in the first place.
@eldukeo 🤣🤣 perhaps you forgot that the big three were once trash bargain brands that rose up to where they are presently. I may not be a comedian, but I am open-minded.
I totally agree. I remember when Samsung was a low budget brand growing up. LG was a joke. Im 48 and Sony is the only one I remember being a popular brand. Toyota, Honda and other Japanese companies were the underdogs at one point. Hisense and TLC along with companies as Hyundai and Kia are coming up!@BRIANSTECHTHERAPY
Hey FOMO, how long should i wait to buy a tv after release as to not overpay ? You mentioned this before but i cant find it anymore
What's with the white gloves? Good content.
If you use sth like the Nvidia TV shield Pro for low bit rate youtube content, how will that look like on the QM8?
Love you are using the G3 as thee we reference!
Yep, it helps that the G3 has DV fully calibrated, which allows me to compare more content on different TVs!
Just Saw your last CZcams about Q8M 2024 Series ! Anyways by any chance to have a VS over the new update they did to 2023 for fixing Post Processing Issues and Black level also the dimming pannel as i own the last version i want to know if they filled the gap for this vs the new one
Can you please tell me what the input lag is on the QM8 in game mode ? This would help me out so much FOMO thanks
My TCL R625 from 2019 still works great. I got a great panel that year.
Having a epic struggle on which 85" TV to get...The QM8 or the U8K. Just waiting on availability and pricing from Best Buy. Any info on when the U8K will be available at Best Buy and what the price will be? I'm assuming it will be more than the QM8 currently at $2,200 so is it worth it to spend more on the U8K??
Any info if the QM8 will be available in europe ?
With football season around the corner, I plan to purchase one of these for a man cave/garage. For youtubeTV and football as 90% of the usage, which unit? Sounds like H8K due to upscaling the lower bitrate, but it seems like people used to prefer TCL’s sports motion. Don’t want to regret…. Advice?
Hold up...when you get to the Netflix portion, are you saying you go in and change settings to put the TVs in a different picture mode than they were in when you were using the benchmark UHD disk? I've been wondering if you use the UHD disk to adjust settings, does that only apply to watching content on a UHD or BluRay disk? Do those settings carry over to a good picture when switching to Netflix, Hulu, Prime, Peacock, Max, or any other app from a device like a Roku, Apple TV, or FireStick? I would not be using any of the built-in apps. Are you suggesting if you transition from a disk to a set top streaming device, that settings would need be changed? Then you use completely different settings when test You TubeTV. This all seems like a lot of hassle. Do people actually jump through all these hoops when going from one streaming app to another? Isn't there a one size fits all set it and forget it type setting so one wouldn't have to go through all that rigamarole? You would need some kind of cheat sheet next to the remote along with the steps to remember how to get to the settings. Hypothetically, if I'm using my Roku (on a Frontier FIOS connection) and watching say Top Gun: Maverick/Paramount+, will I need to change settings again to watch Bosch/Prime, again to watch Ahsoka/Apple TV+ app, and again to watch MNF/ESPN on CZcams TV, or TNF on Prime?
Great video and Thanks! FOMO, It's 55 inch only for me because of room size. Any thoughts on u8k vs q7?
Use case is streaming HDR content and watching cable tv. I'm prioritizing the HDR content. Also, I currently have a Sony x900h.
I would like to know thought on 55 inch U8k vs Q7!
Hi, which did you decide on? Thanks
Hi, what about the 100 inch versions between the U7K and the U8K? I've heard that they are very similar
Is the hisense u8k tv better for gaming and sports or is tcl qm8 better? I heard the hisense can have ghosting in some games and fast motion sports..
So which is the better choice for use as a PC Monitor in the 75" option?
I am so confused on which one is right for me. How noticeabley bad is the QM8 with low bit rate content (CZcamsTV) compared to the U8K? I tend to watch more streaming services than I do gaming or CZcamsTV but if the QM8 is really bad with gaming and low bit rate then I will have to choose the U8K or splurge on a S95B or C2
Any idea if the U8K is actually going to be offered in an 85" version? It was supposed to but can't find it anywhere
FOMO, who is better in black bars perfomance QN90B or U8K?
I wonder, for a typical consumer (I believe I'm pretty typical)....other than using game mode for PS5, all my other watching is on movie/filmmaker mode...I never change setting based on the content I'm watching. Therefore, which performs best with a generic setting?
Which TV has a higher level in the manufacturer's line: TCL C935 or TCL QM8? Is it possible to automatically calibrate QM8 using ColourSpace by cube 20^3? As far as I know, C935 can be calibrated automatically by cube 20^3.
In which one is "DTS-HD Master Audio" via Streaming or MKV-Files supported?
Is there an option to resize display on either of the TVs. Wanted use a single display for close and far off use
What resolution is the low bit rate content done at?
In Europe there is hisense u8kq it seems different from your u8k do you have any information if the u8kq version is a better model?
Was the U8K calibrated in this comparison?
In my opinion u8k is better. Especially better shadow details, better color banding, better upscaling, no red pushing, better judder control without soap opera, better reflection handling
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yes ips panel wins in motion and color natural
But the Reds look better on the TCL Red like a Red power ranger lol
QUESTION: What are your thoughts about how the QM8 does not include an ATSC 3.0 Tuner while the U8K does include an ATSC 3.0 Turner?
realistically, we are at least 5 years away before ATSC 3.0 broadcasters truly incorporate high frame rates for sports or HDR for content; most aren't even incorporating 4K yet!
Can you please review TCL S5 (98s550)? It doesn't have to be 98", however it's the best deal for a 98" in 2024.
Thanks
Is the U8K black lifted all the time or only in Dolby Vision?
Need some advice. I just purchased a tcl 65” Q7 from Amazon for $699. But now I see this U8k from Hisense in a 55” for $799. Should I cancel the tcl and get the Hisense ?
LG G3 for Gaming is Great and so is U8K and QM8...
For me all 3 are Great TV's but I Like U8K more...
@stopthefomo I recall you had some connections at Hisense and was wondering if you could reach out to them and see if they could make the U8K in a 42 inch and consider selling it for $500. The U8K (IPS/ADS Panel) in a 42 inch would rock the gaming monitor segment so long as they follow the same pricing structure IMO. Heck even a U7K 42 inches with IPS/ADS Panel would be great too.
Do u think the 100” Hisense U8k mini led brighter and better tv than the 98” TCL S5 s class basic led direct lit tv ?????? Help ? Thx
Are any or all 3 of these tvs calibrated? If he mentioned it in the video, I must've missed it when skipping past the Whokeys ad, lol.
If they are, can anyone please post the timestamp where this was mentioned? If not all 3 were calibrated, then it doesn't seem as if it would be a fair comparison.
How do these compare to an LG C1
Was the hisense u8K calibrated before this test?
I was thinking about between sony and tcl, but at the end I got the QM8 and i am fine, it is a great TV.
I just bought a u8k hope it's good on 4k blu ray
Went to local bestbuy today checked the U8K and boi o boi the color just pop and so bright it blew me away it look like an OLED can’t even imagine what the QM8 would look like too bad they didn’t have any demo model. Looks like I’m getting U8K 65 inch on sale right now for 1,099 regular price at 1699. QM8 65inch for 1300.
saw the qm8 in person at BB and it looked like OLED.
Give us the hisense UX vs. Sony X95L plss
In the 65" TV's Is the lg c2 still a better deal than these
Would love to see the QM8 next to a traditional OLED, like the C series.
G3 is a good substitute for the C3 due to its brightness matching the QM8, and the G3/C3 image processing is definitely better but the C3 simply cannot get as bright for sports SDR and bright HDR movies (Mad Max, etc.)
@stopthefomo Should one seriously consider the QM8 over something like the C2? Considering the price of either one is not an issue.
@@MFRileygreat question
I'm stuck with low bit rate content over internet, but my TCL Q7 performs surprisingly well. I viewed Monster Hunter over streaming, and on my Blue Ray player as I also have this movie on disk... There is a huge difference in performance, as the Blue Ray can be jacked up to HDR and calibrated for a much more sharper and brighter image, whereas streaming the same movie performed better on Movie mode but lacked the detail of a Blu Ray signal. So you really need to consider your input source when it comes to getting the best image possible, the lesson here is that it's not always the TV that's the problem, it could be your internet, a bad cable, or maybe dust on the lens of your player.
Exactly and Netflix will drop image quality if too many people are streaming the same movies
Hi would you share settings for u8k ?
The issue you're seeing with Monster Hunter on the TCL QM8 looks like motion interpolation artifacts. Try turning off all motion clarity settings and let us know if that fixes it.
Good point I’ll try it, but also keep n mind that the U8K has motion interpolation on de-judder 3 as well
@@stopthefomopls turn off all motion settings to have fair video
Are you able to find out from TCL what the differences are between QM8 and C845 (We don't get QM8 in Australia) that would be great. Thankyou
Not released as yet in Australia, wait a month or so.
Between the form factor and published specs on the US site, I think they're one and the same. AU site has the dimming zones, US site does not, but they have feature parity otherwise. With the Hisense being 8bit and not having Google TV, its a no brainer for us Aussies imo.
Would have loved them to have the Samsung Q90B and Sony X95K here for comparison purposes.
Great video, which one has less of a reflection
Hisense slightly less
I am able to get a samsung 65" q90c for the same price as a 75" u8k and the um8 75". My sofa is 9' away. I have watched your videos over and over and It is hard to decide with all.of the great deals going on. I mostly watch Netflix,and other streamed movies,not really a gamer. I watch movies,sports at different times of the day. In the daytime the room can get pretty bright. In your honest opinion what do you think. Go with the 65 inch samsung or go with the bigger tcl or hisense? Or maybe save even more money and go with the 65" tcl or hisense Thanks again for your help.
Is the Hisense u8k calibrated?
This is quality content
@stop the fomo - Is the QMB an upgrade over the Q90A? What would the clear differences be?
Hey @stopthefomo, I’m thinking of upgrading to the U8K ‘cause I have a fear of missing out on the latest tv tech.
I’ve heard that the U8K drops the signal at times if you use an HDMI splitter. Have you tested that and run into that problem? I currently use two splitters to hook up my gaming systems and would like to avoid this problem.
QM8 vs C935 what is the difference?
U8K seems to be the best to me other than brightness.
and its plenty bright enough
It's true that the Qm8 is difficult to calibrate?
I’d like to see the 75 inch U8k verses the TCL. I love my 75 U8k.
Stock of the QM8 is so sporadic at my local Best Buy's. I don't want it shipped. Hopefully it will be available for pickup next month when I'm ready to pull the trigger.
I got mine from Amazon and no issues.
I am not a gamer....more into watching tv, sports, streaming.....which do u recommend. All my content is thru the Amazon TV Cube 2nd Gen
@stopthefomo I have a question for you regarding screen size. I have a question regarding screen sizes, specifically the 83-85" TVs. I saw on another channel that they aren't worth the $$$ because you dont get anything extra. No improved processors, more dimming zones, etc... I understand the larger screens give the slightly more immersive experiences but is that all you're getting and if so, is it worth it? I am highly interested in getting the QM8 this holiday season.
QUESTION: How are the "Viewing Angles" of these TV sets. Your video doesn't mention that when comparing the 75" versions, which is what I would be interested in, the U8K uses an IPS panel, while the QM8 uses a VA panel. In the past this has meant the VA usually has "Better Blacks" while the IPS usually has "Better Viewing Angles." However, these panels use the Mini-LED lights that have excellent black levels. This means the IPS screen using Mini-LED should by default be much closer to the VA Panel. I recently bought a VA panel monitor for my computer and I was forced to return it, because the moment my head moved just a couple inches from the center, the color would start to become very inaccurate. It was like this with another VA panel, too. I then got an inexpensive IPS panel from Element and the viewing angles were excellent - the colors remained accurate even when viewed from the side. As a result, I'm not excited about the idea of buying a VA panel TV. I like the idea of buying an IPS more; however, I don't like it that the U8K only uses a 8-Bit Panel. The QM8 uses a true 10-Bit Panel.
As with all VA LCD panels generally, not great. Samsung and Sony flagship TVs are a little better thanks to their wide angle filters but you're paying a huge premium, and if you are paying the premium anyway, then I'd go with the S90C for even better wide angle saturation unless you need 85"!
@@stopthefomo I recently saw the 75" IPS version of the U8K at Best Buy. Holy Shnykees! That TV has perfect "Black" levels, just like a VA; however, it also has perfect "Viewing Angles" similar to an excellent IPS. Have you see the 75" version and will you be doing a special test on it? If so, can you please use your "Starfield" comparison that was similar to the one used for the QM8 vs the XL90. It looks like the 75" U8K would not suffer from the Starfield Blackness problems that the QM8 did, simply because the 75" U8K has a completely different type of IPS panel.
Does anyone know what the image processor "SoC" (Mediatek ????) is being used on the QM8 and U8K? This is becoming more and more of an important Factor now that ever, and I do wish the Reviewers we all love and watch would touch more on the specific chipsets that are inside these Newer Displays. This info will be invaluable to potential buyers.... knowing what a TV can fully be capable of and wont be, ie: Full Res 4k120 4.4.4 Chroma subsampling, DV Gaming
@@hbj35403 Thank you Sir
My question is that the U8K testing I see are all 65in tvs, but the 55 has 400 less dimming zones, so I can't see the 55 performing nearly as well compared to it's 65in counterpart.
I bought the qm8 couple weeks ago and love it but I think all these TVs are great and unless you happen to be one of the very few people in the world that have both side-by-side you'd be hard-pressed to complain about any
I think that's also the reason why some people are happy with the even cheaper ones.
@@asole100It's called "Ignorance is bliss."
TCL c645/ t6G which better. Please reply.
Hey what camera are using?
Sony A7IV and FX30.
How is Philips The Xtra 65PML9008 compared to these? I can get that one cheaper.
I'm impressed with the fact that the U8K came as close as it did in contrast, and even surpassed the QM8 in motion.
I expected a much clearer victory for TCL considering they have been working on Mini led for the longest of any manufacturer. Both TVs are great, but the differences are minimal for the average viewer.
As for Dolby Vision, i have to say i'm just not impressed with it. HDR10 looks so much better, but that's just my preference. I think most people want Dolby vision because of marketing.
Hdr 10 never looks better than dolby vision, you probably never seen the difference
@@SpnCosti I have an LG OLED, so i know what Dolby Vision looks like. I prefer HDR10, and i think most people just go with the marketing.
@@dcaseng i have a hisense and dolby vision netflix looks best!
@@SpnCosti I find the picture to be too dark overall. I watched The Ranch on Netflix and it's the worst i've seen. Everything is extremely dark, and while that might be the directors intent, i've never squinted my eyes so much to watch a show in my life.
If you have an LG Oled, how are you watching hdr10? Through Prime? Dolby Vision looks dark because HDR in general is meant to be watched in dark/light controlled room. Also, there is a DV Bright settings if you want to make the picture brighter for home use.
TCL has done a remarkable job this year with the QM8😊😊😊
I really wish you went more in-depth on the motion handling of these displays. Rtings states they both stutter and I was wondering how they stacked up in this regard.
Thanks for the content
Im dissappointed you didnt mention
1. The Hisense is $100 cheaper.
2. The Hisense has 2 upfiring, 2 down firing speakers and a sub its actually quite good out the box.
3. It has a 55" option with the same VA panel ( especially considering its strength being low bit rate content, so 55s go in guest rooms).
Hisense at least made up some ground with motion but yea id like it to match nits...
So lets say 1. priority for gaming (motion) 2. color accuracy 3. good darks and good highlights - I want to connect to my pc so fps will be always more than 60. so qm8 vs u8k or x90l? or lg c2?
I was wondering the same thing mate? Gaming is my priority but unsure which is best for it
Im curious why hisense u8k is rated higher on rtings than tcl qm8
I cant wait to see the price of the qm8 on prime day
Hey FOMO. Caleb dropped by and mentioned the Filmmaker within the U8K was broken in your stream. You turned the light sensor off but he did also and mentioned the preset is just bugged and broken (capped at 900 nits) regardless. Why is this crippled U8K filmmaker mode being used against the QM8 which is calibrated operating at full blast
I didn't notice any issues or "crippling" with my FMM and it actually matched the brightness of the QM8 in all counts, only the colors were slightly off due to it not being calibrated. Calibration would not fix any dimming issues. This is why my review does not mention color differences. When it comes to brightness, my U8K was definitely not capped and if you watch my review, the only mention that the U8K fell short was in full screen sports (Vivid or Standard) which was very minute at that! U8K's biggest disadvantage is the inability to tone map 2000 nit content as well as the QM8 - that's it really. It's definitely not brightness in FMM (for me at least)
Perfect, so I watch low resolution CZcams Tv and high resolution Netflix. I guess I need one of each
