Unbreakable flagship TCL XESS X1 TV Reviews

1 Introduction

In September, TCL, one of the leading brands in China's home appliance industry, released a new high-end sub-brand XESS Chuangyi in Guangzhou, aiming to create a globally unified high-end brand. As the first product of the XESS series, the XESS X1 and X2 TVs also made their debut at the conference, and were coached by Lang Ping, who led the Chinese women's volleyball team to win gold medals in the Rio Olympic Games.
As a high-end product, TCL Q65X1S-CUD will naturally not lag behind in terms of functionality and technology. In fact, TCL has configured its powerful skills such as QD Yue Cai Quantum Dot Technology, Galaxy Multi-Division Backlight Control Technology, Holistic HDR Technology, IDP Vivid Picture Processor, and S-Class Surface Acoustics from Harman Kardon. Therefore, it can be said that both the picture quality and sound effects have achieved the strongest side of the brand.
2 classic TV appearance
In terms of appearance, TCL Q65X1S-CUD is similar to TCL's first-generation quantum dot TV 9700. Both are large 4000R LCD panels with X-shaped base, and the combination of a large stereo at the bottom brings a breathtaking gas field. The appearance of TCL Q65X1S-CUD was carried out by the former senior design director of B&O, and strived to impress life with quality and taste.
The back of the TCL Q65X1S-CUD uses a smart SMART CUBE concept that seeks to put the wires together. The back panel is based on ten layers conforming to the curved VCM color art Hong Kong version, and each layer of material processed through 15 steps can be precisely fit. The surface is also a screw-less, seamless design, and Scandinavian white oak material from Scandinavia is used to polish the material with a smooth, high-quality diamond surface finish.
The rear design of this TV is very delicate. Left and right two backplanes are adsorbed on the backplane by multiple magnets. When needed, they can be easily removed, and a large number of vent holes are left on the surface to facilitate circuit cooling. This detachable design hides the interface or exposes the wire through the internal tracks, making the back of the TV more tidy.
In previous years, surface TVs and ultra-thin models were barely connected. However, the thickness of C1 TV back surface products was greatly reduced since TCL launched last year. Now TCL Q65X1S-CUD continues to use this style, and the general TV's ultra-thin design is different, TCL 1mm drilling and cutting arc process with 2,000-rpm manual fine grinding process, the TV frame will be refined fine curled design, the top of the round Button texture design is to double the texture of the TV.
At the same time, in terms of thickness, the overall thickness of this TV is 17.83MM. I think this thickness is not very thick for the flagship TV. Furthermore, this is a curved TV with direct backlighting. Each of these is On the thickness of the fuselage will have an impact, it is clear that TCL in the choice of thickness and quality of the picture will be given priority and the body design has also done a limit level.
In the base TCL Q65X1S-CUD using TCL high-end TV manufacturer's X-ray platinum base, this set of bases seems simple but very suitable for such a large 65-inch TV, and the center of the base design another big advantage is the smaller desktop occupancy , From the perspective of practicality, it is even more dominant and unique.
The lower part of the TV has built-in custom speakers from Harman Kardon. The special curvature of the 6000R with built-in surround technology allows the audience in front of the TV to enjoy an immersive experience. The blended design makes the Speaker and television more coordinated, and it can be said that the acoustics and design work.
The remote control design is basically the same as this year's C2. The keys are compact and easy to operate. And using Bluetooth connectivity to support flying squirrels are super practical features.
The flying mouse function of the practical remote control is super convenient for typing and selecting the interface!
3 Watch List Sound and picture configuration is flawless XESS is a high-end brand under TCL.
On the screen, TCL Q65X1S-CUD uses TCL's proud color quantum dots technology, making the screen NTSC color gamut up to 110%, and enhance the color purity up to 35%. At the same time TCL also introduced the Galaxy multi-zone backlight control technology, the principle is easy to understand - LCD TV back light source light, ordinary TV backlight can not be completely shut down, resulting in the screen in the dark pattern when the screen is still shiny gray, In severe cases, it will affect the effect of the normal screen.
Galaxy multi-zone backlight control technology can accurately control the backlight area, so that the unnecessary area of ​​the backlight can reduce the brightness or even close the backlight, resulting in relatively accurate dark part performance. The key to this is TCL's deployment of 1152 direct-lit LED backlight arrays for TVs, which achieve super-black and dynamic light control effects by individually controlling a small portion of the backlight.
In addition TCL Q65X1S-CUD also joined the brilliant image processing engine, and greatly enhance the TV's color contrast and color accuracy. In addition, the HDR effect continues to be preserved, and full output from the hardware to the original can be achieved through the whole ecological HDR technology. TCL also uses AR antireflection film and special polarizers on the surface of the panel. Its purpose is to reduce the reflective effect of ambient light on the screen and enhance the contrast of the screen.
Last year's flagship TV+H8800 used the Harman Kardon speaker unit and achieved excellent sound effects. The TCL Q65X1S-CUD also uses Harman Kardon's products, of course with 6000R curvature meniscus S-class sound in details, built-in independent 6-speaker unit, 5L large audio volume, with a unique audio processing solution and up to 50 watts The output power makes the performance of the built-in audio amazing.
In terms of configuration, high-end TVs have entered the core era this year. The TCL Q65X1S-CUD is the flagship product of XESS with built-in 64-bit processors, with 3GB of operating memory, up to 96bit of operating bandwidth, 32GB of internal storage space, and 2+2 scientific computing chips. There are as many as 37 cores in the internal core. At the same time, in order to enhance the fluency of the picture, TCL Q65X1S-CUD also integrates 6A938 processor of Morningstar Semiconductor, which is based on the Cortex-A72 architecture. Compared with the previous generation of 6A928, the maximum increase is close to 40%, and supports 4K 60FPS decoding and rich painting. Quality improvement technologies, including 4K PRO and HDR, can be said to be the current king of smart TV chips. In addition to this, in order to enhance the dynamic effect of the TV, 6M60 motion compensation chip was added to further improve the screen performance.
4 System interface integration easy to operate On the system TCL Q65X1S-CUD TV uses its own TV + OS 3.0 system, which is a set of intelligent, personalized and beautiful operating system, which will be more in line with big data and scientific research The user's operating habits are placed on the front end, and the interface is optimized for design and personalization to make the TV interface more “understand”.
The main interface is divided into homepage, film and television, life, entertainment, education, karaoke and application of these seven categories.
It is also possible to add categories and it is very easy to operate. In the system settings, you can open the settings through the application interface, or directly press the gear icon button on the remote control. The picture is set in the main interface with nothing, only the backlight option.

The TCL Q65X1S-CUD measures up to 1047 cd/m2 at maximum backlight brightness and the brightness value is the strongest TV ever tested. At the same time, the maximum deviation of television under this ultra-high brightness is only 8%, and the performance is extremely good. I am afraid that this is due to TLC's Galaxy multi-zone backlight control technology, the test is only for 9 areas, the TV is designed for independent control of the brightness of the individual areas, making the overall brightness control is very good, plus the direct-type backlight itself to a small area The brightness control accuracy is much higher than that of the side entry type, so it is not surprising that there is such a performance.
