Combining the impressive picture quality of Mini LED with brilliant Quantum Dot colour, the 2024 TCL Mini LED TV range, led by the C855 model, gives Australians plenty of options when it comes to choosing a great television for their lounge room.
What is Mini LED?
Mini LED is the next generation of backlighting technology for LCD televisions, offering a bright picture with greater contrast, deeper blacks and more vibrant colours.
Television screens are made up of millions of tiny pixels, which constantly change colour to create a moving picture. Traditional LCD televisions shine a bright LED backlight through the pixels, which ensures a bright image but struggles to completely block the backlight in dark areas.
Rather than only dividing the backlight into a handful of zones, Mini LED breaks the backlight into thousands of tiny segments that can be controlled independently.
This allows the screen to dim the backlight behind dark areas of the image while keeping the bright areas super bright. It ensures bright highlights and deep blacks with great detail and contrast, while eliminating unwanted halos around bright objects on a dark background.
TCL C855 and C755 Mini LED TVs compared
Unveiled at CES 2024, Australians can choose from the C855 and C755 series 2024 TCL Mini LED TVs, each available in a range of sizes up to a hefty 98 inches. Meanwhile, we’re still waiting for the giant 115-inch TCL X955 to arrive on our shores.
The C755 series is TCL’s mid-range Mini LED TV, offering up to 2,400-nit peak brightness and up to 1,536 local dimming zones in the LED backlight. It starts at $1,499 for the 50-inch model.
The TCL C855 is the brand’s flagship model, with up to 3,500-nit peak brightness and 2,034 local dimming zones. Its smallest size is 65 inches, costing $2,999.
Both series combine the benefits of Mini LED backlighting with a Quantum Dot filter that produces more accurate colours and a wider range of the finest shades. Each model uses Google’s TV operating system but also supports Apple AirPlay casting from mobile devices.
These televisions earn “IMAX Enhanced” certification and also support Dolby Vision IQ, an evolution of the Dolby Vision high dynamic range standard that takes things to the next level.
Dolby Vision IQ automatically adjusts the television’s brightness, colours and contrast in real time to suit the lighting conditions in the room. This ensures the picture always looks its very best, any time of day.
Both TVs also support 144Hz variable refresh rates, making them well-suited to smooth gaming sessions in addition to watching sports.
TCL’s 2024 TVs versus the competition
TCL’s Mini LED TV range in Australia competes against the likes of Samsung, Sony, LG and Hisense.
Samsung’s flagship is the 85-inch 8K QN900C Neo QLED, while Sony’s Mini LED heavy hitter is the 85-inch Bravia 9. LG comes out swinging with the 86-inch QNED91, while Hisense puts forward the 85-inch LED X Mini-LED X Series UXAU.
As TCL’s main competitor, Hisense’s 2024 Mini LED lineup includes the UXAU, U8NAU, U7NAU and U7NAU ranges. Hisense’s 85-inch UXAU stands toe to toe with TCL’s 85-inch C855 Premium QD-Mini LED 4K Google TV when it comes to price, picture quality and features.
If Mini LED isn’t a priority, and you want to save money, the TCL C655 is a cheaper option. A direct-lit LED, you can grab a 55-inch model for under $1,000. It’s no slouch when gaming either, sporting a 120Hz refresh rate.
With TCL’s main range now available in Australia, there’s now plenty to choose from among the best TVs.
