Product Name: | TCL 50" Class 5-Series 4K UHD Dolby Vision HDR Roku Smart TV - 50S525 [Tv Only] |
Product Description: | TCL’s 5-Series marries superior 4K UHD picture quality with Dolby Vision HDR for a stellar Imaging experience. The 5-Series’ HDR dynamic contrast technology uses information embedded in Dolby Vision content to optimize every scene for accurate detail in bright and dark areas simultaneously, unlike other HDR formats that have a set brightness level for all content. The 5-Series models’ iPQ engine provides precise color replication while HDR Pro Gamma significantly improves HDR performance in any setting. Easy Voice Control lets you control your entertainment using just your voice. The award-winning Roku TV Smart Platform provides seamless access to over 500,000 movies and TV shows, your cable box, Blu-ray player, gaming console and other devices without flipping through inputs or complicated menus. |

Not bad for 5-series. The 55" 5-series is only $280.50.... Well worth the extra $25 for the 5" (that's what she said!)...

and it does "Process" 4:4:4 chroma
The little green dots is the result of Spatial dithering. The reason they use the algorithm is that it greatly improves the contrast uniformity across the horizontal span of the panel.
If you look at VA panels without this type of dithering, the left and right edges look a bit more greyish, and the black level is elevated higher.
The spatial dithering clamps 3/4 pixels at a certain luminance difference threshold. What this does is it makes the outer pixel contrast more similar to the center pixels.
It's a FEATURE. LOLOL. I too wish you could turn it off for certain use cases, but it's probably a hardware lvl chip built into the LCD driver, so maybe that's why they've stuck with it.
The downside is as you've noticed, it will cause a slight loss in fine details.

I might have been super unlucky, but figure I'd warn other anyways.

Is the 50" RGBW?
Woulda been ironic to buy the TV for the BR just to get relegated to the couch. 😜
Also, excited to try out HLG.

As far as I'm aware, only LG Ips tvs were ever rgbw en mass.

Will look more into rtings and other posts later but skimmed this and kind of annoyed me since I easily could be an owner of such a tv. Will look to avoid this. I didn't know there was a fake 8bit simulation that rtings treated as 10 bit. Only because of this deal I learned something that I think is a huge deal people should know about.
