The TCL Q77K is disappointing for most uses. It's best suited for a moderately lit room, with some lights on but nothing directly opposite the TV due to its poor reflection handling. It's also best suited for gaming with high refresh rate sources like a PC, thanks to its high maximum refresh rate and low input lag, and it supports VRR to reduce tearing. It's a mediocre choice for watching sports due to its slow response time at low refresh rates, and it doesn't look good in a dark room due to its low contrast and lack of local dimming. It supports HDR, but it's better-suited for watching SDR content as it has mediocre colors and isn't bright enough to bring out HDR content properly.
Pros
Decent viewing angle.
Cons
Motion is very blurry at 60Hz.
Can't reduce the intensity of direct, mirror-like reflections.
Just okay upscaling.
The TCL Q77 Series is a poor choice for home theater usage. It has great format support, including all main HDR formats and audio codecs, but it's best suited for watching SDR content. HDR is flat and dull, as it has limited coverage of HDR color spaces, and it can't get bright enough to bring out bright highlights. It also lacks a local dimming feature and has low contrast, so it's not a good choice for dark room viewing. Finally, it has decent motion handling. It removes judder from most sources perfectly, but there's some stutter in slow-panning shots.
Pros
Fantastic format support.
Excellent PQ EOTF tracking.
Removes judder from most sources.
Cons
Low contrast and no local dimming means dark scenes are washed out.
Not bright enough to deliver an impactful HDR experience.
Can't display a wide range of colors in HDR.
Noticeable color artifacts in all content.
Noticeable stutter in slow panning shots.
