Yung 65 P635 nasa 30k lang 2022 model na po (cash payment, yung card mas mataas ng konti).

thanks for the heads up sir .. yun P737 is P32,995.00 ..  being both 2022 model, am wondering if the P737 is way better than the P635?

Just looking at the specs on the TCL website, it looks like the P737 has wide color gamut and Dolby Vision while the P635 does not.

However, what I actually meant to type was the C635 which is a QLED panel and is superior to the P737 (sorry as it looks like my post was a typo).  It also has 120Hz VRR capability, which makes it a better gaming tv than the P737.

Check out C635 on Anson's or on FB Marketplace as the 55" is under 30k right now for cash payment.

The P737 has Atmos compared to the 635. If you are premium account holder of netflix you may be able to enjoy the Atmos signal from the TV then to the capable receiver. Am I right?

Call it in, it may well be just a quick parts change to fix.

bili ka na lang bago sir. out of warranty na din yan and mahirap sugalan paayos pa. natalo ako ng 6K+ ata dahil pinaaayos ko pa tapos after a week or two nag loko ulit.

I also have an A8US. Died on me twice. First was a panel replacement (wala akong binayaran) next was a board replacement (paid around 5k, IIRC). It's been 2+ years since the board replacement so far ok pa naman.

^Ayus! meron naman pala successful repairs ang TCL. I might consider this if i cannot find a good deal on TVs I like. Actually, yun service center yata na nacontact ni @usblave ay malapit lang dito sa village namin.

Yung nag repair ng tv ko mukhang very experienced na. He was even mentoring his assistant on how to tape properly, watch out for frayed wires, make sure everything is grounded, etc. Probably in his mid to late 50s.

Our advantage is that the A8US has been around for a while so the repair guys know their way around it. :)

While I don't expect this to last the decade, at least masulit ko naman sana until maging obsolete na yung firmware. But truth be told, I still get updates for it years after its purchase date.

Rosarito ang name ng service center along France street. Kapag tumawag ka sa customer service banggitin mo na malapit ka sa rosarito. Goodluck sir sa tv mo

Any users ng p635 and/or p735? Hows the quality and performance? My 5.5 year old 55" hisense started flickering today. Though umayos naman sya, I'm afraid baka need na palitan soon. Thinking of getting a 65" screen this time of ever. Thanks in advance!

The new QLEDs should be coming out soon, you might want to check those out.  Pricing should also be lower now because of recession concerns.

Yup, that's it.  Note that TCL discounts its TV's even before the holiday season so buying now is probably not a good idea.

Had one. died 1 week after the warranty expired.  Not economically sound to have it fixed.
My Dad had one.  Died as well within warranty.  Repaired by TCL numerous times.

Both used with voltage regulators, power conditioners and in air conditioned rooms.

I used a bluetooth one during the pandemic; tv + media controls in front and has a keyboard on the reverse side.  This also has a mouse but it was not as good as the one I had for an LG TV.

It worked fine for a few months but one of my cats felled a speaker where the remote was resting on and it hasn't worked since. YMMV.

The C series has good PQ, better than the non OLED LG's. It's also 120Hz capable but be sure to update the firmware before you do any color calibrations or other settings.

32k is a really good deal for a 65" tv with a good QLED panel and HDMI 2.1. It will be a huge upgrade over your older TV. May free soundbar pa.

Just got to try out a TCL 65" C745 (QLED) in BKK, where it was on display with a PS5 and a gaming PC attached.  Considering it was set up with a console and a gaming PC, it can be expected that motion + refresh rates would be solid (and indeed it was).

What I was surprised was the color rendition, both on HDR10 and Dolby Vision, which I thought was nearly as good as on an OLED. After checking their website, it turns out this TV has:

• Full Array Local Dimming
• 144Hz VRR
• 1000 nits on HDR

There is also a higher-priced C755 (QD-mini LED), which can do 1300 nits on HDR and an even higher 2,000 nits on the even more expensive C845. All these models have the same 144Hz VRR capability.

I'm not sure which models are on sale in Manila right now but it looks like the best non-OLED gaming TV's available today are from TCL.
