Should I buy it?

TCL T8C 98"
CONSIDER
  • Current model — 20 months on the market
  • No real owner data yet — the verdict stays cautious
Great choice if these matter:
  • console gaming
  • a very large screen
  • film nights
Watch out for:
  • 350 nits typical, with no local dimming stated
  • Wi-Fi 5, and TCL answers no to IMAX Enhanced

FAQ

The most common questions about this product

What the numbers on the spec sheet actually mean in day-to-day use.

Should you buy the TCL T8C?
The Kacbu decision box currently says CONSIDER for the TCL T8C: the specs hold up, but there are not yet enough real owner reports to strengthen the call. Pros, cautions and alternatives are in the decision box at the top of this page.
Is the T8C the same as the P8K?
By every specification row TCL publishes, yes. At 65 inches the Italian sheets for 65T8C and 65P8K differ on three of forty-five rows: the model, the series, and one word TCL renders in Italian on one sheet and in English on the other. Türkiye gets the T8C name; Spain, France and Brazil get the P8K.
What is DLG 240 Hz?
Dual Line Gate halves the vertical resolution to double the refresh rate, so the panel reaches 240 Hz at half the lines. The panel's own rate is 144 Hz, and that is the figure this page files under refresh rate.
Which sizes reach Türkiye?
55, 65 and 75 inches. Italy also sells the 85- and 98-inch sizes. The table on this page shows which market carries which size.
Is there harder evidence than the sheets?
TCL's own Turkish page for the T8C serves the P8K's photographs: the images on tcl.com/tr/tr/tvs/t8c are filed under /product/tv/p/p8k/. The maker is illustrating one television with the other's pictures.
