TCL C7L

Pros
- This is sqd technology and higher priced from q6c/c6k. Since i don wanna buy oled, so this quality is very near to oled n top end tvs..
- Yes that’s a good price for now at least. I was helping a guy buy this model from Reliance and he was quoted the same around 1.46.

- I heard that it has color accuracy issue as you said along with motion handling being bad unlike the previous gen
- If you looking at high quality OTT Content like dolby etc , honestly I was bit disappointed, Avatar fire opening scene i saw wings stuttering on the those flying animals. And overall in complex scenes the tv just looks okay. It really sh...
