Pay attention to the box width.. it's 46". Your qx60 can accommodate at best a 40" wide cargo. You will have to keep the box inside diagonally which will probably crack the display.

How do I know this? Because I am in the market for a new tv after cracking my old one during a move doing. Exactly what you are attempting 🤣
sadly rtings is useless- they review on one panel size and in this instance it's the ips vs this size which has the va.
That was the 70" V series you bought at Costco as you mentioned in a prior post. The P series isn't made in 70" size.

Quote from eyeseeyou :
It's going into my living room to basically be used for everything you've listed:

Movies, TV shows, older movies/tv shows the tv may need to upscale, sports, news, video games, etc.

The lighting is not bright, but definitely well lit.

Budget is less than $1k.

Alright, with that budget, you could get a premium tv at a smaller size, such as a 48 inch LG OLED or a 55 inch Samsung QN85 QLED tv.

If you want 65, you will need to sacrifice things like brand/class, such as a 65 inch Hisense U7G/U8G. For 75 inch you will have sets like this one in this post, that are ok, but leave a lot to be desired.

If you need a TV asap, a few of these may not be constantly available at your price point. If you are in no rush, then it is typical to be able to find these or even the occasional nicer/bigger set at your budget.

I appreciate you trying to help but my original post was asking: "What's a basic list of features or functionality I should be looking for" not which TV models I should be looking at.

What about those tv's you've listed that made you feel they would work for my situation aside from budget?

Hard to say. I asked you what your major viewing habits were, but your response was too generic to really help you specifically. It would basically need me to list all the best features of all the best sets. If you can narrow down your true viewing habits to just the ones you do most often, it would help a lot. Otherwise like I said, rtings is a great place to start, and they break down all the features really nicely if you truly need to do it all.

Things to consider when buying a TV today:
-They are all "smart", but some more than others
-They are all 4k (1080p is gone except in small sets, and 8k is still ultra premium)
-Look for a wide color gamut for the best colors and color reproduction. https://www.rtings.com/tv/tests/p...3-rec-2020
-Look for brighter sets, sets that can get to at a minimum of 700 cd/m in the details/small windows https://www.rtings.com/tv/tests/p...brightness
-Look for good HDR capability, which often goes hand in hand with the above 2 points
-There are a few different HDR standards, but the two biggest ones are HDR10 (a basic/minimal standard) and DolbyVision (brighter, more colorful, more precise with scene by scene adjustments)
-Look for a set that handles upscaling and movie playback well (sets that can display lower quality content without making it look even lower quality)
-Look for sets that can handle stutter and judder well in movies (24p playback, like from blurays) if you are affected by that type of thing (not everyone can see it)
-Look for sets that handle motion well, such as fast moving sports and video games
-Be aware of DSE (dirty screen effect), however it only bothers some folks
-Know the different types of sets available
-OLED, which is considered the best picture quality by most, but can have trouble battling direct light on the screen, and has potential for burn in
-QLED, which is an LED set with a "quantum" filter over it, giving those sets higher peak brightness and color reproduction, but without the true blacks of OLED, and usually has bad halos around bright objects in dark scenes
-Reg LED, which is what you are replacing, are now pretty much only in budget sets and lower mid level sets, nothing wrong with it, just not as good as the above two
-If you have a next generation console or graphics card, you will want to look for sets with at least 1 HDMI 2.1 input along with some of the gaming specifications that go hand in hand with that


Those are the major features you would want to be aware of today. If you watch a lot of OTA content, NextGenTV aka ATSC 3.0 tuners will be able to utilize upcoming 4k HDR OTA signals that are coming in the next few years, but you will be able to get a tuner or other device easily at some point to cover that, I would not worry too much about it now.

I've been on a strange saga in buying a new TV. I got a Ps5 and wanted to upgrade from my 60" 2015 Vizio. (4k, but no HDR or anything).

Bought a 55" C1 for $1,300. Picture is beautiful, a little dim but decided it was just too small.

Exchanged it for a 75" X90j for $1,700. Love the size, but the pic underwhelms me.

I see deals like this, and I'm like….maybe I could love the size and be a little more underwhelmed by the picture for $1,000 less 😅😂.

….Or spend $3,000 for a 77" C1

Just curious if you tuned the picture on the x90j, as that should have been a major upgrade to your 2015 Vizio.

Main differences between ips and va lcd panels are viewing angles

Va has better contrast but reduced viewing angles

Don't know why Chinese manufacturers alternate on panel technology when it comes to screen size as the determinant

Quote from maj0819 :
Would love to hear peoples thoughts on this. Thinking about purchasing mostly for watching movies and putting my sons Xbox on it.
It'll be fine for watching movies and shows for sure. For gaming it might be okay for an Xbox One S or Xbox One X, but the new consoles need displays to meet certain specifications for them to really shine. It's probably fine for casual gaming -if you've never played on a fancy TV with 4K 120hz and VRR you might not even know that you're missing out.. Once you do though, it's painfully obvious when you try and play on a budget TV that it's a budget TV.

But we're talking about a Goliath 75-inch TV for $600. You're here for the value, and that's a hell of a lot of value lol.

I feel like IPS is more common in 75" panels. maybe some manufacturing thing. They have not gotten to VA being common at 75" yet.

But is this the reverse? The 75 is VA? Then I dunno LMAO

Anyways this is a 270 nits brightness TV. Meaning it's a good basic TV, but nothing for videophiles or techies or gamers. But for 90% of people it will be fine. Also can make a good second TV.

Now if it was TCL's other budget line that can hit 550-600 nits brightness it would be a pretty great deal. While it wouldn't hit 1000+ nits or 120hz panel, the savings would more than make up for it IMO.

Looking at the back picture, it didn't look like it has the necessary holes to mount to the wall. Any ideas?

I have had a few tcl 6 series tv's, as well as a 4 series. The 4 series is 1.5 yrs old and has developed several large dark blotches that are very noticeable in various parts of the screen. This doesn't mean it will happen to everyone, but it did happen to me, my 6 series sets never had issues.

Kind of insane that you can get a 75" TV nowadays for under $1000, let alone $600!
years ago I paid $1000+ for my 1080p non smart tv 70".

3rd post had a link to here
https://www.rtings.com/tv/reviews...-s446-2021

Where you can see
"Wall Mount VESA 300x300
The TCL 4 Series has a metal back panel, with plastic at the bottom section, and where the inputs are. Sadly, there's no cable management. The inputs are side-facing, but they may be a bit hard to reach on the larger sizes when wall-mounted because they're at the center of the screen."

My first TV was a 47" 1080p insignia. It was $1400, on what I thought at the time was a super sale, lol. Sold it for $100 about 5 years ago. Sad, haha 🤣
