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 operation is simple and intuitive, and accessing favourite applications is trouble-free. Personalised recommendations make it easier to choose what to watch, and voice search in Polish works quickly and efficiently. In terms of picture quality, C69B / C655 performs well, especially given its price. Thanks to quantum dot coating technology (PFS), colours are vibrant, and the Dolby Vision support means that HDR films look quite decent. The contrast is sufficient for everyday viewing, but the brightness level of 350 nits may be an issue in very sunny rooms. However, in less demanding conditions, the television performs fairly solidly – details are well visible, and the black level is decent, though not perfect. For gamers, this is rather an option for relaxed, occasional gaming. The 60 Hz panel doesn't provide the same fluidity as more expensive models, but the low input lag ensures good responsiveness. The Game Bar feature allows for quick adjustments without leaving the game. This is not equipment for avid gamers, but at this price point, it's hard to expect more. However, there are some limitations. Screen brightness and the lack of recording functionality can be bothersome, especially if we are used to more advanced solutions. Picture-in-Picture (PiP) is another feature that is missing here – this can be a problem for multitasking enthusiasts. When it comes to HDR content, it's also noticeable that the television doesn't handle it as well as more expensive models, particularly in brighter scenes. In summary: C69B / C655 is a television that is best suited for everyday use. Google TV makes life easier, and the picture quality will satisfy most people, especially if we are not expecting perfection. This is equipment for watching television, films, and occasional gaming that won't stretch the budget but still offers a solid foundation to be placed where larger television sizes simply won't fit.
The Hisense A7NQ is one of the simplest QLED televisions available on the market, primarily appealing with a very attractive price. Equipped with a VA panel, it offers solid native contrast, and the additional PFS coating (another type of QLED) allows for vibrant colours, especially in older SDR content. This is a television that will work well for those who use a TV more occasionally but are looking for a device with useful extras. The Vidaa system, which has gradually established its position in the Polish market, is another plus. It supports most popular streaming applications available in Poland and offers features such as USB recording, which can be rare in this class of equipment. It is evident 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 television will not be the best choice for watching 4K HDR content. However, it performs better with older materials or regular television, 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. Nevertheless, the manufacturer has included a few features for gamers, such as VRR, ALLM, or even displaying 120 Hz in a lower resolution. Additionally, there is an intuitive and user-friendly Game Bar that makes it easier to adjust settings while gaming. Despite this, the television is not without its drawbacks. One of the stranger problems we encountered was the complete disregard for Polish subtitles from USB. We hope this is a matter of an update, but at present, it is hard not to notice. In short, the Hisense A7NQ is a solid mid-range option. While it may not be equipment that wins all tests or aspires to the title of "television Formula 1", it will certainly satisfy many people – especially those looking for something simple and affordable. It is a good choice for someone who wants to enjoy content on a large screen without spending a fortune.
