    The 8-Series stands as TCL's new flagship line of TVs, and it performs accordingly. It inches past the 6-Series with its remarkably bright panel and lower black level. Its color performance is comparable with the Samsung Q90R QLED TV. If you're willing to pay $2,000, you can spend a bit more on a flagship 4K TV.

    Pros
    • Fantastic color performance
    • Bright panel
    • Excellent black level
    Cons
    • Laggy Game Mode

    Reviewers from rtings have found the following***:
    The TCL 8 Series is a great overall TV. It performs well in both bright and dark rooms thanks to its high peak brightness and outstanding contrast ratio. Motion also looks clear thanks to the fast response time, which is good for fast-moving content like sports or video games. It has an okay local dimming feature, but it can crush small highlights in dark scenes.

    Pros
    • Outstanding contrast ratio
    • High peak brightness
    • Wide color gamut
    • Low input lag
    Cons
    • No VRR support
    • Poor viewing angles
