Compared To Other TVs The Amazon Fire TV Omni Mini-LED Series is a good TV overall, with no real weaknesses perhaps outside of its color accuracy, SDR color volume, and rather uneven pixel transitions. As good as it is, it's outpriced and outperformed by the Hisense U7N and the TCL QM7/QM751G QLED, with the TCL being an especially good buy due to its higher peak brightness, more colorful display, and faster gaming performance.

Overall, the TV's processing keeps up very well with fast-moving objects, and lighting zone transitions aren't very noticeable, with minimal haloing. Still, small bright objects get so dim with rapid movement that they almost disappear, which is disappointing on a TV with this many dimming zones. It has a Fast Backlight Control feature meant to improve zone transitions. However, it greatly reduces the TV's peak brightness when enabled, and it doesn't work in Game Mode or with VRR enabled.

6.9 Mixed Usage The TCL Q550F is an okay TV for mixed usage. The TV's contrast is decent, but its HDR brightness is just alright, so it's not very good for dark room usage or for watching HDR content as bright highlights don't really pop, and blacks are raised whenever bright highlights are on screen. On the other hand, its SDR brightness is quite decent, and it has good reflection handling, so it's a solid pick for watching SDR content in a moderately lit room.

Differences Between Sizes And Variants We've bought and tested the 65-inch Samsung DU7200, which is also available in 43, 50, 55, 60, 70, 75, and 85-inch sizes. All sizes offer the same picture quality and overall performance. Note that with Samsung TVs, the four letters after the short model code (FXZA in this case) vary between different retailers and regions, but there's no difference in performance. Costco and Sam's Club sell a variant of this TV known as the Samsung DU7200D.

Differences Between Sizes And Variants We bought and tested the 65-inch Panasonic W95A (65W95AP), and these results are also valid for the 55 (55W95AP), 75 (75W95AP), and 85-inch (85W95AP) models. Costco sells a variant of the 65-inch model known as the 65W95APK. It performs the same but comes with an extended warranty. There are no other known variants of the TV, so our results should be valid for all regions, but the inputs vary depending on regional requirements for tuners.

Compared To Other TVs The Samsung Q80D is a good mid-range TV that's especially good in bright rooms when watching SDR content, as its SDR peak brightness is excellent. It's also a standout in dark rooms due to its fantastic contrast, and its HDR brightness, while not exceptional, is good enough to provide an impactful viewing experience in controlled lighting environments.

Compared To Other TVs The Hisense A7 is a decent budget TV with a few nice features for the price. While it lacks some of the features found on the higher-end Hisense U6/U6N, such as local dimming, it still has VRR support with low input lag for gamers, and it supports both Dolby Vision and HDR10+. Plus, it passes through most advanced audio formats through its eARC port.

Compared To Other TVs The TCL Q6/Q651G QLED is a decent TV, but it's nothing special in terms of overall picture quality. It's similar to a TV like the Hisense U6/U6N, but that TV has a local dimming feature that improves its contrast and increases its black levels, which makes it look much better than the TCL in a dark room. The U6N is also brighter overall, so it's more well-suited for use in a room with the lights on and delivers a more impactful HDR experience.
