TCL launching Android and Google TVs in South Africa in November

[TCL_South Africa]

@TCL_South Africa I find the specification section on your website to be kind of iffy.

Look at the way these two do it for a better example:

Hisense 75" 4K UHD - A6GS | 75A6GS | Hisense SA

Total 4K Solution (Resolution + Upscaler) DTS Virtual X Bluetooth Game Mode VIDAA U4.0

Not a train smash but it could use an improvement.

Yeah, appreciate the feedback, we've got a new site coming out, not sure when we'll be in the roll-out but when we're out of season we're going to put some time into trying to fix up the bugs. Unfortunately we can't affect the design language too much.

Helps people like me for job security though

@TCL_South Africa Hi, any word on the release date and price for the C825 please?

No more C825... they're going to release the C835 (as I understand it) and that will be somewhere near June/July if I read the TCL thread in the other section of the forum.

Correct. We did get a few C825's in and may have them out for reviews/prizes but we're not 100% sure yet. We just can't retail them.

The C835 will likely get a date and price around April. :/ Sorry. We just didn't want to retail the older version a few months or weeks before the new version came out and disappoint some customers.

Thanks for the quick reply, totally understandable

Pleasure. Really wish we had the C825 on the market just timing and logistics didn't pan out.

But keep watching our socials! We're going to have something up in the next month or two of interest

Makes sense will wait to acquire one.

Awesome. We'll be announcing some mall activation and that kind of thing in the coming months so people can go see the TV's themselves before ordering. Will come back here and let you know.

Still very interested in the C835. Get them here quickly!

@TCL_South Africa When can we expect 75 Inch 4k Tv's to be added to the offering? I'm eager to know the price point if the C835 comes in 75 inch.

Good afternoon Kavir. We have responded to your private message. When we know about bigger sizes headed to S.A, you'll know!
Have a great day.

We are patiently waiting for the release date, but it is getting closer. When we know, you'll definitely know!

Looking at replacing my 43" Samsung KU7000, taken out by loadshedding, with a TCL 55" 55P615 UHD Android TV - any thoughts?

So it's a good deal? Haven't really heard much about the brand apart from a couple of articles on MyBB

So the brand is pretty well established in the international market and is a decent entry level brand in the States. It also doesn't look as if the guys are merely doing badge engineering and we are getting units that are similar to the spec of other markets.

Not if you view HDR content

I'm sitting on xDSL - do you think I'm watching much HDR content?

Ordered it - if I'm not happy with it I'll send it back and get another Samsung.

I deduced from your previous TV and your question that you weren't a TV snob. Don't let these folks get started on these nits!
