They offer some good stuff, Linux Tech Tips have some reviews.

I don't think any of them support HDMI 2.1 though, which would make Amazon's TV a better value proposition in the budget category...

I am in the market for a TV. Need to start doing comparisons between these and the Hisense models.

I was merely looking at the C725 65Inch model, and it shows HDMI 2.1

Yeah. The C725 (QLED UHD) and the P725 UHD - both have HDMI 2.1 as one of the 3 HDMI ports.

@TCL_South Africa your time to shine!

Thanks so much! Hopefully so!

Nope. HDMI 2.1 - On the C725 QLED and the P725 UHD - So 2020/2021 , no?

 

[TCL_South Africa]

Yip, only HDMI 2.0

Nope, 2 of the 3 main models confirmed for this year have HDMI 2.1, only the P615 is HDMI 2.0. So we do have HDMI 2.1 in QLED and UHD

Do the specs mention tuners? If they do not have tuners, do they count as licensed TVs?
