Halo effect and black detail visibility:

The LG NANO82T features a VA panel that delivers commendable native contrast. Compared to IPS panels, VA technology provides better black depth and higher contrast, resulting in more vivid and realistic images. However, the absence of local dimming—common in this price range—reveals some of the TV's limitations. Without the ability to selectively dim specific screen areas, darker sections lack the necessary precision and often appear as dark navy rather than true black. This issue is noticeable in tested scenes, such as those from The Revenant, where the overall picture quality is affected. In particular, darker scenes may lose detail, diminishing the viewing experience in low-light settings.

The TV TCL C75B tested by us in size X" is equipped with a VA panel, which naturally provides quite decent contrast results – and this is what we observed during our tests. On each test pattern, the TV achieved a contrast of around 5500:1. This is a result that can be considered very good in this price range. The black in this model is really good, though it is of course far from perfect. Due to the C75B's belonging to the mid-range segment, we won't find local dimming technology here. This is particularly noticeable in more demanding scenes, such as those from the movie Sicario 2, where we noticed that the black takes on a navy hue instead of a pitch black. This limitation of panels without local dimming can be especially apparent during evening screenings with the lights off, when the darker elements of the image are more exposed. It's worth keeping this in mind when choosing a TV in this category, especially if we care about the best quality of black when watching movies at night.

TCL C75B

LG NANO82T6B

The brightness of the LG NANO82T is rather average, especially compared to other TVs in a similar price range. With a peak brightness of approximately 280 nits, it falls short of many competitors offering levels exceeding 400-500 nits. This limitation impacts the viewing experience, particularly for HDR content. Bright areas of the image may lack definition, and the HDR effect fails to deliver the dramatic impact expected from higher-end displays, making the overall image less striking in well-lit scenes.

During our luminance test, the TCL C75B "spat out" about 380 nits of brightness. We recorded similar results while watching most of the films we tested. These can be considered average – the television does not perform badly in this segment, but around 400 nits is definitely too low to fully experience the magic of HDR effects. Of course, such results are better than those of budget models, which can achieve nearly half as low brightness values. However, for HDR enthusiasts seeking stronger light effects and greater realism, the C75B may prove insufficient. On the plus side, it's worth mentioning the 95% coverage of the DCI-P3 color palette. This is a very good result that easily suffices to enjoy a wide range of colors in content available on popular streaming platforms. Vivid and rich colors are definitely a strong point of this model.

Factory color reproduction

After calibration

Factory Mode

After calibration

The colour reproduction in the LG NANO82T in Filmmaker mode, while the best factory setting available, does have flaws. The primary issue lies in white balance, where measurements reveal a drop in the level of blue. This shifts towards yellow hues, making the image warmer than intended. Such deviations prevent natural colour reproduction, especially in scenes with white or neutral backgrounds. For instance, in Star Wars, where numerous elements should appear white, the colours deviate noticeably. The Color Checker test corroborates this, showing some shades "escaping" into others, further highlighting the lack of accurate colour rendering.

In terms of contrast, the gamma graph analysis showed a drop to 2.1, falling short of the optimal 2.4. This leads to darker parts of the image appearing brighter, reducing depth and dynamism. Additionally, the EOTF curve, which governs brightness reproduction, shows a slight spike at the start. This can result in an excessive brightness boost in the brightest areas, causing a loss of detail in very bright scenes.

TCL C75B offers many picture modes, but in our opinion, the best choice is the "Film" mode. Although its settings are quite good, the television struggles with certain color reproduction issues. In tests, we noticed that the image had a noticeably pinkish tint compared to what could be considered correct. This effect was particularly noticeable in skin tones, which appeared unnaturally warm. The main culprit of this phenomenon turned out to be the white balance, characterized by an excessive amount of blue and red in both HD and 4K HDR materials.

Another issue was the way brightness was reproduced. The gamma, which is responsible for the visibility of details in darker materials, was definitely boosted, causing details in the darkest parts of the screen to be invisible, lost in total blackness (e.g., the bottom part of the screen in the comparative photo - the area around the actress's ear). Similarly, the situation was reflected in the EOTF curve, which was below the correct value, suggesting that a similar problem may be encountered in 4K HDR content.

Thanks to our experience and the appropriate tools, we decided to take matters into our own hands and see how much could be extracted from this model after professional calibration. Details are described in the next section.

Color reproduction after calibration

7.6/10

8.2/10

After calibration, the colour reproduction in SDR content on the LG NANO82T is impressive. The white balance has been effectively corrected, resulting in natural, balanced tones across various scenes. Gamma adjustments ensure more precise rendering of details in shadows and bright areas, enhancing the viewing experience. These improvements allow the television to perform well in everyday use, delivering solid colour accuracy and well-balanced images in SDR mode.

Unfortunately, the situation with HDR content is less satisfactory. The TV lacks support for a wide colour gamut, limiting the depth and richness that HDR can achieve. The EOTF curve deviates from the ideal, leading to overemphasis on details in brighter areas. This causes noticeable colour reproduction errors, as confirmed by Colour Checker tests. Additionally, the panel's low brightness further hampers HDR image quality, diminishing dynamic range effects and causing colours to appear washed out.

Overall, the TV significantly improves after calibration, particularly in SDR mode. The enhancements to white balance and gamma elevate image quality, offering more natural and cohesive colour reproduction. Compared to its pre-calibration state, the difference is evident, and the television now performs noticeably better in standard dynamic range scenarios.

After calibrating the TCL C75B, it has clearly improved in terms of color reproduction. Although the TV does not offer many options for adjusting the white balance, we were able to refine its settings significantly. As a result, the image has stopped being overly pink, and the colors now look much more natural and harmonious.

The gamma jump, which was previously a problem, has not disappeared completely, but we managed to significantly reduce it. This has made the details in dark scenes more visible – both in HD and 4K HDR material.

Unfortunately, the lack of local dimming is still noticeable. The "glowing black" effect remains, but that's a limitation of the display itself. Despite this, the colors after calibration look vastly better, and the image is much more enjoyable to watch.

Smoothness of tonal transitions

8.9/10

8.2/10

The TV handles tonal transitions smoothly, offering high-quality images in every scene. Problems with gradation occur occasionally, mainly in darker shades, but these are subtle enough that most viewers won't notice them. Only those with particularly sensitive vision may perceive these minor imperfections.

In terms of the smoothness of tonal transitions, the TCL C75B performs really well. The gradation of the darkest colors is particularly impressive – the television does not disappoint here and delivers a high-quality image.

Some imperfections can be noticed in the brightest areas of the screen, such as in a scene from the movie Kingsman (the sun in the blue sky). Nevertheless, the final effect should satisfy the vast majority of users.

The LG NANO82T features a "Smooth Gradation" option for handling tonal transitions in low-quality materials. The "Low" setting improves the most problematic transitions, providing a noticeable and helpful enhancement. However, the "High" setting, while further smoothing tonal transitions, sacrifices some detail in the process. This can be a compromise that not all viewers will appreciate.

The image scaling on the LG NANO82T has some limitations, particularly when displaying lower-resolution content. The TV applies a subtle artificial sharpening, which makes the image appear sharper, but this effect is mainly due to artificial contours. Some users may find this beneficial, as it highlights details more prominently, but for others who prefer a more natural image, it may appear overly processed and artificial. This is a subjective preference that varies from viewer to viewer.

The TCL C75B has a tonal transition smoothing feature, but unfortunately, we can't praise it. Regardless of the selected level – low or high – tonal transitions in older materials remained visible, as if the feature didn't work at all. It's hard to say something positive about it because, in practice, it seems completely useless.

The image scaling is better. The TV performs quite decently, although on thinner elements, like branches in the background, you can notice slight halos. However, this is not something that significantly interferes with daily viewing.

Unfortunately, a bigger problem turned out to be overscan, which is the trimming of the image edges. In our tests, it happened that news tickers or other elements close to the edge of the screen were cut off. This is definitely something worth paying attention to, especially if we use the TV for watching news programs or content with text on the screen.

LG televisions, including the NANO82T, come with an interesting motion smoother called TruMotion providing users with control over the quality of films they watch. The TruMotion feature allows adjustment of the motion fluidity on a 10-point scale, offering a personalised visual experience.

However, when it comes to more dynamic content, such as games or action films, the performance falls short. With its 60Hz panel and relatively slow pixel response, motion fluidity is less than ideal. This results in noticeable trailing and less smooth playback during fast-paced scenes.

Overall, the LG NANO82T is a good option for those who primarily watch movies and prefer more subdued content. Viewers who prioritise fast, dynamic motion, may prefer an alternative model.

TCL C75B definitely has something to offer gamers. The TV is equipped with a panel that can display images with a refresh rate of 144 Hz in 4K, and even 240 Hz in Full HD. These are really great results, especially for a model from the budget range.

Additionally, there are features for improving smoothness and reducing motion blur in films. The "Motion" option allows for precise adjustment of the effect on a 10-step scale, providing a lot of customization options – everyone can set the smoothness to their liking.

Another advantage is the support for HGiG (HDR Gaming Interest Group), ensuring HDR games are displayed as intended by the creators and providing vibrant and realistic visuals. These features contribute to a solid gaming experience, but there are some drawbacks, particularly in fast-paced scenes.

The LG NANO82T has limitations when it comes to advanced gaming features. It lacks support for variable refresh rate (VRR), which affects gameplay smoothness, especially in more dynamic games. The TV's 60Hz panel restricts the ability to use higher refresh rates, a significant downside for gamers seeking smoother gameplay at higher resolutions. Additionally, the absence of G-Sync technology limits image synchronisation, potentially leading to tearing and stuttering during gameplay.

These limitations mean that while the LG NANO82T offers a good gaming experience for casual gamers, it may not meet the expectations of more demanding players seeking advanced features and maximum image fluidity.


These shortcomings may mean that the LG NANO82T does not meet the expectations of the most demanding gamers looking for advanced features and the highest image fluidity.

The viewing angles on the LG NANO82T are limited, which is typical for budget VA panels. When viewed from the side, colours lose their vibrancy, and contrast deteriorates. Blacks become washed out, and details become harder to discern. This can affect the viewing experience in larger rooms where people are seated at various angles. While VA panels offer better contrast and deeper blacks than IPS panels, their narrow viewing angles are a significant downside. If you often watch TV from different spots in the room, this could impact the overall visual experience.

The viewing angles on the TCL C75B are, unfortunately, very weak. This is a typical compromise with VA panels – better blacks at the cost of off-angle visibility. The picture quickly deteriorates in quality when viewed from the side, which is the complete opposite of what IPS panel TVs offer. If we plan to watch the TV mainly head-on, this won't be a big issue. However, with a larger number of viewers sitting at different angles, the picture quality may disappoint.

In terms of daytime performance, the LG NANO82T falls short. The satin panel offers only average reflection suppression, which can be an issue in bright rooms. The low screen brightness of just 250 nits is the main limitation, as it struggles to deliver adequate picture quality in well-lit environments. This significantly hampers its performance in such conditions, making it less suitable for bright spaces.

The TCL C75B performs reasonably during the day. The satin matrix somewhat reduces reflections, but it's not an ideal solution. Brightness is also a problem – 350 cd/m² is simply too low for comfortably watching TV in a brightly lit room.

In less extreme conditions, such as in a moderately lit room, the TV manages well. However, if the sun begins to shine directly on the screen in the summer, watching can become tiring. It's worth keeping this in mind when choosing this model.

In such cases, using a computer would be recommended to achieve full compatibility with different file formats. Overall, the file player in the LG NANO82T performs its basic function well, though it may not offer the flexibility required by more advanced users.

The built-in media player in the TCL C75B works really well. It handles most popular image and audio formats without any issues. Although there are some shortcomings in supporting certain formats, thanks to Google TV, you can easily install an alternative player that will solve this problem.

The sound quality of the LG NANO82T is decent, though not exceptional. It is equipped with two 10W speakers located at the bottom, offering adequate audio for everyday use. However, the absence of DTS format support may be a drawback for Blu-ray users who expect higher-quality sound. While the audio is sufficient for regular viewing, those seeking a more immersive experience or superior sound performance might find it lacking.

The sound on the TCL C75B is really pleasant, especially at lower volume levels. The bass is noticeable and well highlights the sound, but only up to about 40% volume. At higher settings, problems start to occur – the bass causes unpleasant vibrations, and the speakers begin to crackle. If we plan to use higher volume levels more often, it’s worth considering the purchase of a soundbar, as the built-in speakers may not cope with more demanding situations.
