No qled is the tv type, there is UHD/QHD. QHD has 1 billion colors. The backlight would be standard LED, this is LED/Mini-led/oled. FALD is the dimming type, this is edge/direct/FALD. The tv should be pretty decent if its qled and fald.
With the Q77 from Costco, if you buy two you get $150 off the total. Brings the price per unit down to around $225 before sales tax. Just bought two, ready for pick up tomorrow at my local Costco. Can buy two and sell one if you want, just one way to get it even cheaper.
350 nits is terrible. Good luck watching HDR content that doesn't look washed out or too dark. This whole HDR thing has fooled people into thinking they're seeing better picture with a low tier TV vs their old 1080p sets. Do yourself a favor and turn off HDR when you buy these TVs or better yet buy something slightly better for $150-$200.I remember the 50" being 600 nits. Is this a newer but downgraded version?

Does not have Dolby Vision IQ or HDR10+ if that matters to you. The 50U6H does (also has local dimming).
The first one I got had horrible motion blur. 2nd was much better.
Roku OS is meh. I use a separate streamer but talking about the UI. It gets the job done but the Google TV version has a way better UI. Also Roku forces an account for firmware updates. Google TV does not. However Roku has more consistent OTA updates and GTV is a mess. Usually have to manually download and flash updates that do not come through OTA at all.
No smooth motion settings. I know most people will say good it sucks but using film mode or custom can help with lcd blur without adding the soap opera effect. Those settings are included in the 50U6H model too.
There is no way to tweak or disable the smooth motion. It doesn't seem to be noticeable. I am sure turning on game mode can disable it. There was talk about Roku TVs forcing it on with no settings option unsure if a patch was considered.
For PC gamers who use 5.1 the HDMI ports will pass multichannel audio. Unlike the U6H which only does Stereo.
So the TV has +'s and -'s
Might be other small details I needed. As a PC gamer with 5.1 surround I am satisfied with it since Windows doesn't support HDR10+ or Dolby Vision (so IQ mode doesn't matter).
Both the 55U6HR and 50U6H are great budget TVs. Just remember they are not the same despite being U6H line.
The TCL Q77K lacks local dimming unsure on smooth motion settings but is 144hz.
A simple trick to get better backs is to use LED strips that go on the back of the TV and shine on the wall behind it. Helps your eyes adjust and helps make blacks look darker also reduce eye strain.
TV is "QLED" but Hisense brands it as "ULED".
Whatever you pick. Have so many great options for low price'd big screen'd TVs these days. All else fails return it or exchange first to see if bad panel.

IDK...the pictures on the actual box say "Quantum ULED" 🤷

It does have 600 nits HDR brightness. Least I'm pretty sure it does? Last I heard?
This is a Walmart only Frankenstein version with new and old parts.
It does have local dimming which is pretty dang great. Also can use VRR (non-gamers need not care) with it.
Very close to this model: https://www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/hisense/u6gr
