Is the TCL 50Q7C 50" QLED TV right for you?
If you want a bright, colourful 4K set with a fast gaming panel for a smaller or second room, and you care more about value than a premium badge, this is a smart buy.
If you watch mostly in a dim room and want perfect blacks with no bloom, an OLED will give you the cinema contrast this Mini-LED cannot match.
Before you buy
No, it is a QD-Mini LED. It pairs many small backlight LEDs with a quantum dot colour layer for high brightness and vivid colour, though not the perfect blacks of an OLED.
Yes. It has a 144Hz panel, which is rare at this size and price, so fast games and sport stay smooth and sharp.
Yes. It reads the Dolby Vision scene-by-scene HDR format, so compatible films and shows look the way their creators intended.
For a bedroom or smaller living room it works well. For a large main room where people sit further back, a 55 or 65 inch set suits better.
