Manual of product 98X955
Editorial note
The TCL 98X955 stands out with its 98-inch screen offering a 4K Ultra HD resolution, ensuring an immersive viewing experience with stunning details. The TCL AiPQ 3.0 image processing technology enhances color quality and detail, contributing to an optimized user experience. Additionally, advanced audio features with decoders like Dolby Atmos and DTS provide rich and immersive sound quality, ideal for multimedia enthusiasts. However, this model has some notable drawbacks. The lack of Smart TV features limits access to online content, which may disappoint users looking for a complete multimedia experience. Furthermore, the high weight of 66.7 kg makes installation and transport difficult, potentially requiring the assistance of several people. Finally, the relatively high energy consumption, especially in HDR mode, could lead to higher electricity costs for those who are budget-conscious. In terms of performance, the TCL 98X955 offers a solid experience thanks to its high-definition screen and advanced audio features, although it may not be suitable for demanding gamers due to the absence of synchronization technologies like AMD FreeSync and NVIDIA G-SYNC. The modern and sleek design of the television is a plus, although it is hindered by its weight. In summary, the TCL 98X955 is an interesting choice for those who prioritize image and sound quality, but it may not meet the expectations of all users due to its limitations in connectivity and mobility.Score details
