I did it again, the non automatic way and got it. I'm away from the set now. But it had to send me 3-4 times before it worked.
Oh wow how did I miss that. Thanks!Yea, there is just hit the OK button and it'll show it on the bottom of the screen. Doesn't say HDR but, you'll know that by the hdr indicator in the top right when you start hdr content...
I hope TCL releases an Android TV version in the future. It's the only thing that's holding me back.
Apps. Imagine using the new Steam Link app directly on the TV. Or emulators...

Heck, Roku doesn't even have an official Spotify client.
I just noticed that when an HDR game kicks in the picture turns very yellowish on the Xbox. I just found an HDR setting and it defaults to Dark HDR. There's 3 options Bright HDR, Normal HDR, and Dark HDR. Why is it defaulting to dark HDR? And is it normal for the TV to go black when it switches HDR on?
I have a Mi Box and I use it every day. But I would love to have less clutter and less remotes.Well they have the Nvidia shield TV. There's even a cheaper Mi box for about $60. I wouldn't tie my TV purchasing decision to an OS that you can get in other ways.
Mine goes black for a second when switching to HDR (I wasn't sure if it was the TV or the receiver switching modes). The TV has two sets of settings per input. One for normal, one for HDR so you have have them saved separately. I use HDR bright because I think it looks best given the lighting situation in the room. When you adjust the settings on the HDR mode it will save them so you don't need to adjust them every time it switches to HDR, and it will not affect your non-HDR picture settings when it switches back.
Worth the upgrade?I did, and I love it. Of course the extra size is great too, but it is definitely brighter and better with HDR. And my own eyes tell me that the blacks are even better than I recall. Great TV.
What is the difference in HDR support?For me it was the combination of size increase and better HDR support/brighter that made the upgrade definitely worth it for me. The metal design is so much nicer looking in my living room too.
Fourth panel (2 Amazon, 2 BB). Think I actually got a good one this time. There's still some DSE, but the the banding seems pretty minimal. Don't see any dirt under the LCD, which is something all 3 previous panels had to varying degrees. Gonna keep it for a week and see if the dse dissipates with use, though part of me is very interested in vizio p reviews at this point.
I thought it was interesting that the P series really hold up well against the 6. If Amazon still had the P in stock I might have bought one, as I have $350 in credit.Sticking with my P series after reading that review. HDR and flicker are improved but that's about it with some things being downgraded from the P series. Plus that response time out of game mode is horrendous.
10How many bits is the panel for color?
I feel like I see either more noise or more macro on youtube so far.
And some gray sweep test looked horrible. Like, a 5 year old Westinghouse looked better. So I'm confused by that impression. So far most looks great.
Jeez 4 sets? I'm to calibrate and test mine tomorrow a lot. So far besides the flickering and signal lost with my X1X mine has been good. I haven't noticed any DSE or banding so far. I'm a Vizio fan and have them in every room of my house and this 615 replaced my old Vizio 4K. The only thing I don't like so far about this set is it's only 60hz. I'm curious about to see the reviews for the Vizio P series myself. But, unless I have issues I'm going to probably keep this set...
Some TCL TVs are on amazon UK but they appear to be shit. Can't find any decent spec lists and they don't have DV just HDR
Unless you want the 65 inch. Which is why I'm considering upgrading.
Good God those rtings settings for white balance and color have just brought this TV to a new high for me.
RTings review stating that black levels and contrast is better on the P series. Definite brightness improvement on the 6 series though.
Didn't expect that.
Their settings didn't work for me (most colors just ended up looking washed out), and they don't advise using their exact settings but calibrating per-panel.did you copy what they posted? I'm tempted to do it. What am I supposed to set HDR to light or dark? Their settings section is confusing because they talk about general use first then switch to HDR settings which threw me off.

Everything else they listed for settings was pretty much identical to what I was already using. I actually haven't enjoyed anything but DarkHDR settings. I feel like the colors are too vibrant and skin tones just don't look right. And Warm is a must. Normal and cool just look too blue, to my eyes.
yes I used their exact settings. I figured what the hell gave it a shot to see how it looked and even though I realized it is not the numbers that I probably need exactly for my panel there is a definite improvement in my eyes to the screen and the picture.
it has become a much less rough picture, a smoother cleaner image and I lost that extra warm red glow That was present in the warm temperature setting and the darks are now perfectly clear and not crushed but plenty dark. It went from A little dull 2 more vibrant on the dark HDR setting. I had been running with normal or bright HDR in a dark room for Xbox x games because I just didn't feel that dark HDR was bright enough. these new settings brought the TV to life on dark HDR which is the most accurate color setting on the HDR spectrum on this TV. I did have to increase the color (under normal settings) in most inputs by 3-5 points though, it was a little washed out for my liking with their settings but even with that increase overall image quality improved.
Freaking lovely in games and movies and tv now for me.
I ran with a P 605 most of the past year in the HDR brightness is well apparent in game Not as much in movies. Also now with these settings on this TV it compares favorably to movies on my 2017 Vizio M 65 which I had felt was A better movie picture then either the 605 or the 615
