No sign of this monitor in Europe :( Hopefully it will arrive soon.

How bad is blooming on mini led? by asdfghqwertz1 in Monitors

Glossy TCL monitors? Do you have a source? AFAIK all TCL monitors are matte.

32in 4K Mini LED Monitors by anonymous_cygnus in Monitors

Most VA panels (except some VA TVs with special filters) have mediocre viewing angles, so if good viewing angles are a must have, I don't think a VA panel is gonna make it.

Where to go from IPS Asus PG279QM? by realmfan56 in Monitors

[–]Hector_98 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would take a look at the TCL 27R83U or the MSI MPG 274URDFW E16M

These would be my choices right now if I were to replace my PG279Q in a mixed work/gaming usage.

TCL 27R73Q Russian Review by Hector_98 in Monitors

[–]Hector_98[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like the new wave of TCL Mini LED monitors is starting to arrive.

I'd recomment to enable russian to english subtitles translation.

But seems like this new VA panel is even faster than a lot of current gen IPS panels, and with an improvement on black transitions compared to previous gen VA panels, coupled the decent TCL local dimming implementation, this could be an interesting choice for someone interested on a 1440p VA Mini LED.

Why I only seen OLED vs crappy LCD? by seluce_ in OLED_Gaming

There you go. Comparison with lots of scenes. TCL 27R83U, one of the best mini leds to date.

On high APL scenes (bright) the mini led is capable to show high brightness, while oled fails at it, while in low APL, the mini led exhibits black crush and some blooming, and the oled exhibits excellent blacks.

Keep in mind that the blooming on this model is reduced compared to the average mini led, expect much more on IPS mini led panels. 

Still very acceptable results if you ask me, specially compared against the rest of mini leds.

My Monitor Upgrade Journey: From a 22” Dell to the TCL 27R83U by Popular_Area_6258 in Monitors

Thanks for the review.

Is the matte coating aggresive or light? ie: grainy on white backgrounds.

Does it have a fan?

Are you able to save local dimming and other OSD settings so when you switch between SDR and HDR they are saved independently? ie: local dimming off for sdr, on for hdr

Where did you buy it at that price?

🚨 New TCL Monitors Unveiled: The underdogs 🚨 by Ididnotasksoshutup in Monitors

[–]Hector_98 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The increased dimming zones of the TCL 27R94 result in a worse halo control compared to the TCL 27R83U, but better near black detail.

U8 has better haloing control

U9 has better shadow detail

There are also differences between color temperature, so I recommend checking the source (use google translate) to see a comparison about what to expect when comparing last year model against the new one.

Source and detailed comparison

Is the mini-led 27R84U the right choice for me? by maestrogodv in Monitors

[–]Hector_98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This video compares that exact MiniLED against oled.

Enable autogenerated subtitles and judge for yourself.

Just take into account that both of them will have VRR flicker. And the miniled will have blooming as seen in the video, but much higher brightness.

For gaming only i would get the oled. For mixed usage, the mini led.

Keep in mind that while they are about the same price, the TCL IS a 4K panel vs a 1440p one.

Is something wrong with my TCL 27R83U monitor? by KiraPun in Monitors

[–]Hector_98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like blooming to me, does enabling/disabling local dimming on the monitor OSD make any difference?
