Editorial note

The TCL 98P749 stands out with its 98-inch 4K Ultra HD screen, providing an immersive visual experience and highly detailed precision. HDR technology and Dolby Vision IQ ensure enhanced color reproduction and contrast, contributing to superior image quality. Additionally, with four HDMI 2.1 ports, the television allows for advanced connectivity, facilitated by features like Wi-Fi Direct and Bluetooth 5.0. The Google TV operating system enriches the user experience with an intuitive interface and access to many popular streaming applications, while the optimized Game mode offers smooth performance for gamers. However, several drawbacks should be noted. The TCL 98P749 is not equipped with Smart TV features, limiting access to streaming applications and the Internet, which may disappoint users seeking a connected experience. Furthermore, the lack of support for HDR format may reduce visual quality when streaming modern content. Its high weight of 58 kg makes transport and installation tricky, potentially requiring the assistance of several people. Finally, the energy efficiency class G indicates relatively high energy consumption, which could lead to higher electricity bills and increased environmental impact. Regarding writing scores, the product receives good marks in performance (85), highlighting the image quality and Game mode. Connectivity is also well-rated (80) due to the HDMI ports and wireless connectivity. However, the user experience is rated at 70, due to the absence of Smart TV features, and energy efficiency is less favorable with a score of 50, reflecting high energy consumption. The modern and sleek design receives a score of 75, although its weight poses logistical challenges. In summary, the TCL 98P749 is an attractive option for those seeking a large screen size and remarkable image quality, but users should be aware of its limitations in terms of connectivity and energy efficiency.
