TCL C69B or otherwise C655 in its smallest sizes (43 and 50") is a model that stands out primarily due to its Google TV system. The interface is simple and intuitive, and accessing favourite apps is hassle-free. Personalised recommendations make it easier to decide what to watch, and voice search in Polish works quickly and efficiently. In terms of picture quality, C69B / C655 performs well, especially for its price. Thanks to quantum dot technology (PFS), colours are vibrant, and Dolby Vision support makes HDR movies look quite decent. The contrast is sufficient for everyday viewing, but the brightness level of 350 nits may pose a problem in very sunny rooms. However, in less demanding conditions, the TV performs quite solidly – details are well visible, and the black levels are decent, though not perfect. For gamers, it’s more of an option for relaxed, casual gaming. The 60 Hz panel doesn’t provide the smoothness of more expensive models, but the low input lag ensures good responsiveness. The Game Bar feature allows you to quickly change settings without leaving the game. This is not equipment for die-hard gamers, but at this price point, it’s hard to expect more. There are, however, some limitations. The screen brightness and lack of recording functionality may be bothersome, especially if we're used to more advanced solutions. Picture-in-picture (PiP) is another feature that's missing here – this can be an issue for multitasking enthusiasts. With HDR content, it's also evident that the TV doesn’t handle bright scenes as well as higher-end models. In summary: C69B / C655 is a TV that works best for everyday use. Google TV makes life easier, and the picture quality will satisfy most people, especially if we don’t expect perfection. It’s a device for watching TV, movies, and casual gaming that won’t strain your budget, while still offering solid fundamentals to fit in places where larger TV sizes simply won't fit.
The Hisense A7NQ is one of the simplest QLED TVs available on the market, primarily enticing with its very attractive price. Equipped with a VA panel, it offers solid native contrast, and the additional PFS coating (a different type of QLED) allows for vibrant colours, particularly in older SDR content. This is a TV that works well for those who use the television more occasionally but are looking for a device with useful features. The Vidaa system, which has strengthened its position in the Polish market over time, is another plus. It supports most popular streaming apps available in Poland and offers features like USB recording, which can be rare in this class of equipment. It's clear that the manufacturer listens to user feedback and strives to implement improvements, which is a nice touch. When it comes to picture quality, it is… simply average. Brightness is limited, so the TV will not be the best choice for watching 4K HDR content. However, it performs better with older materials or regular TV, where high brightness is not crucial, and colours can look really good, especially after professional calibration. Is it a good screen for gamers? The A7NQ is not a gaming monster – the 60 Hz panel and significant motion blur may deter more demanding users. However, the manufacturer has included a few features for gamers, such as VRR, ALLM, and even 120 Hz display at a lower resolution. Additionally, there is an intuitive and user-friendly Game Bar that makes adjusting settings during gameplay easier. Despite this, the TV is not without its shortcomings. One of the stranger issues we encountered was the complete disregard for Polish subtitles from USB. We hope this is a matter of updates, but at the moment it’s hard not to notice. In short, the Hisense A7NQ is a solid mid-range option. While it may not be equipment that wins every test or aspires to be the "Formula 1 of TVs," it will certainly satisfy many people – especially those looking for something simple and affordable. It's a good choice for someone who wants to enjoy content on a large screen without having to spend a fortune.
