High value + high wisdom TCL A860U ultra-thin AI TV evaluation

"It can rely on value, but it depends on wisdom." This phrase is used to describe people who have long-lasting resistance and IQ. As the wisdom of the family concept is becoming more and more popular, more and more home appliances are also given a "high Value + high-intelligence" attributes for a better experience. In the upcoming global Tmall Twins 11 shopping carnival, Tmall pre-sales products will include wise and intelligent products. The TCL A860U ultra-thin AI TV is one of them. From the introduction of Tmall Mall, you can see that the original TCL A860U ultra-thin AI TV with high performance-to-price ratio is more sincere in this big promotion, and you can enjoy more favorable prices through booking. As the saying goes, “Fish and bear's paw are not available”, what kind of experience will this beautiful and smart artificial intelligence TV bring? And if the price is so discounted, will it be tricky? After reading this review, I believe we have a few hearts.
Appearance design: Anyway, the outstanding TCL A860U adopts the symmetry of the minimalist design, smooth lines, so give the impression is very comfortable, plus the silver color, generous decent, easy with a variety of home style, in the all black TV design, silver TCL A860U gives a bright feeling, this is also a good choice.
In addition to the color is a special point, TCL A860U body is made of all metal materials, the benefits of using metal material is good hardness, can effectively guarantee the screen's flatness and stability, and the metal material is easy to heat, in the TV towards the big screen development Under the general trend, the use of this metal material is just right.
Today, TV is getting thinner and thinner, the A860U's 7.9mm thickness is not the thinnest, but the author thinks it is a more appropriate thickness, too thin no texture, and always feel that the screen will shake the lack of security, too thick and There is no beauty; the corresponding frame is as narrow as possible. After all, the larger the screen and the narrower the frame when watching TV, will give the user a better visual experience and a stronger sense of immersion. The border of the A860U reaches 4.8. Mm, which is quite good in the industry.
The base is an all-metal inverted ram, with good workmanship and firm grip.
The TV's process design and workmanship only face the audience. Therefore, many manufacturers do not care about the design on the back. The A860U is a product that is ingeniously designed. It is excellent in any case. Its back plate adopts an integrated design and is equipped with SECC electroplated steel plate. The back plate is very delicate and has very nice lines and texture under the light. In addition, the back plate and the frame are combined into one package. The way to fit with the screen. As mentioned earlier, when you first see the A860U feel comfortable, it is precisely because of this integrated backplane and frame design that makes the TV as a whole more visually concise and refined.
Conventional interfaces have, and in the side of the TV, easy access to plug wire, the only fly in the ointment is WiFi supports only single-channel dual-channel, it is fortunate that the three HDMI are 2.0 version, in the 4K HDR smart box and play All devices have been in the HDR era, and HDMI 1.4 has indeed reached the end of life.
Finally take a look at the remote control, standard remote control is the same with the TCL high-end flagship X-series TV 17-key Bluetooth voice remote control, the initial use of the need to simultaneously hold the menu and OK key paired with the TV, you can achieve 360 ​​° Bluetooth voice remote control , The remote control integrates T-Buy (a key to enter the shopping channel), synchronous cinema, live broadcast, live button can quickly select the signal source, very practical.
Artificial intelligence, small T: The more you accompany you, the more you understand 2017 can be said to be the first year of development of artificial intelligence and the outbreak year. Whether from the perspective of industry or cross-border, artificial intelligence has already reached a certain scale, whether it is Konka, Skyworth, Changhong and other traditional TV manufacturers are still storm TV, millet TV and other Internet TV have all laid out artificial intelligence, TCL's artificial intelligence, small T in the beginning of this year's product is quite effective, then what upgrades will be on the A860U?
A860U's artificial intelligence is mainly achieved through voice commands. Press and hold the Bluetooth voice remote control's voice button to activate. From the actual experience, you can clearly feel that artificial intelligence and small T have evolved a lot compared to the beginning of the year. . Compared with artificial intelligence on the market, artificial intelligence and small T dominate the richness of instruction, such as intelligent on-demand, fixed-point selection, graphics recognition, television control, TV screen, translation, information/encyclopedia query, calculation, Natural answers and so on can be accurately completed, and the recognition is fast and accurate, and the feedback is very fast.
Artificial intelligence control will change the remote control more difficult to achieve as long as you can easily shout to the remote control, for example, want to play video from 11 minutes and 11 seconds, you may want to operate through the remote control for a long time, and artificial intelligence voice control step In place; In addition, artificial intelligence and small T's ability to recognize images is also leading the industry in TV artificial intelligence. The significance of this function is that you see a certain TV series, but you do not know who the “that person” is, you can directly ask the small ones. T "who is this person", A860U will search for this person's relevant information, and search for this man's film and television drama. Here is a video to witness the "high IQ" of artificial intelligence:

Hardware and software: 32-core processor/TV+OS3.0
When TV hardware reaches the 64-bit processor, TV is no longer the era of hardware, because it can meet daily use, A860U's 64-bit 32-core processor clocked at 1.6GHz, built-in quad-core Mali-T720 GPU In the author's evaluation, the system was awakened for 5 seconds in the standby mode, and each function and the application of the TV did not feel stuck, and the experience was very good. In addition, the A860U's DDR4 1.5GB/16GB memory structure compared to the mainstream DDR3. The /8GB architecture is also advantageous in the industry. DDR4 memory has higher frequency and power consumption than the previous generation. This means that the TV runs faster, and 16GB twice the storage space can be installed more. The application (after removing the system footprint, the user's free space is 11.11GB). In addition, support Bluetooth 4.0, external audio / joypad / mouse and other peripherals, to expand the TV experience.
In terms of software, TCL continued to develop TV+OS3.0 based on 64-bit Android 6.0 in-depth development, integrated Tencent video's massive video and audio resources and rich application services, and turned the living room into a home audio/video entertainment center through TV. The interface is still T-UI3.0, showing all content through the waterfall of the horizontal channel, and the left side can enter the trump channel, which is essentially a carousel resource. The resolution is still pretty good, reaching at least 1080P, and some of the carousel resources Achieved 4K resolution; press the rightmost "+" to customize the channel.
The A860U is equipped with news TV broadcast licensees and integrates Tencent's massive resources, including hit IP dramas, movie theaters, animated cartoons, and popular variety shows. Most of the videos have a 1080P resolution, like the recently hit "Apostles". Walker 2's definition has even reached 4K! In addition, the 4K zone and surround sound zone settings provide an entrance for users with high-level requirements for picture quality and sound quality, and as a powerful component of Tencent content ecology, in the A860U On the body we also saw the entry of NBA single-player resources to meet the viewing needs of sports fans. As a very intimate feature, the A860U supports skipping titles and endings. In VIP charging, the A860U viewing fee is divided into three, penguin theaters (25 yuan/month, 68 yuan/season), compared to several other mainstream platforms. 258 yuan/year), Ding Theatre (10 yuan/month, 30 yuan/season, 99 yuan/year), NBA (25 yuan/month, 60 yuan/season, 199 yuan/year), users can according to their needs Purchase can be purchased individually or as a combination of three, and the price/performance ratio is quite high.
In addition to carrying the Tencent video, the A860U also sees 4K HDR theaters and two global applications in the built-in applications to improve the content ecosystem of the A860U. I believe many of my friends and Xiao Bian have encountered the problem of buying a 4K HDR TV without a source. The 4K HDR theater is a collection of online 4K HDR movies and TVs. There are currently 103 movies, and new movies will be updated one after another. Broadcasting is a subsidiary of TCL. It provides users with video viewing functions that are basically synchronized with the cinema. Of course, it also requires VIP, but you can earn free money by watching advertisements and other interactions to achieve free viewing. Xiaobian thinks it is still awesome. !
In addition, A860U has built-in rich application services, such as the Friends of the Friends (TV KTV), music education (children's education), today's headlines (news information video version), QQ music, application stores, funs (yoga, square dance... (Teaching)... Full coverage of viewing, shopping, games, and learning to meet the needs of different members of the family.
With more and more high-performance TVs, the application of USB decoding on TV is becoming more and more popular. Especially for decoding video and pictures, you can instantly share videos and photos on the camera's memory card with a large screen. A860U supports 4K 10Bit. H.265 and the popular video format decoding on the network, and support for external subtitles and audio tracks, pictures support BMP / JPG / GIF / PNG and other conventional formats, enough to meet the needs of the average family of local video decoding.
Picture Quality: Full Eco 4K HDR+Q Picture Quality Engine Balance There are many factors that affect the purchase of a TV, while the picture quality occupies the most part. The A860U is equipped with a 4K (3840x2160) resolution soft screen in the picture quality. The main tuning technology is the Q quality engine. Xiao Bian thinks that the picture quality adjusted by the Q quality engine is high in color saturation, bright colors, and warmer, and the response speed is also satisfactory. It is obviously related to the “cold” of the IPS. Differences, after all, each brand will have its own tuning technology, users also have their own preferences, it is precisely because of a variety of adjustment techniques and a variety of screens, only to give us more choices.
The outstanding quality of the A860U in terms of picture quality lies in its 4K HDR technology, which not only decodes 4K HDR 10, but also incorporates 2K correlation compensation technology and HDR real-time conversion technology. The former can increase the 2K octave to 4K resolution image quality. Clearly, the latter can increase the normal picture quality to the HDR display effect, widen the brightness dynamic range between the dark field and the bright field, and enhance the picture contrast and layering.
The following shows the quality of the A860U presented through actual playback effects. (The following test images were taken in the standard mode, and the number of digital conversions after the screen shots were taken and the performance of the reader's display devices were different. For reference only):
"Junior Fantasy Rafting" HDR 10 decoding test: decoding is smooth and does not crotch, the effect of: the darkness of the stars dive deep enough, the stars and the moon as the background and the foreground contrast of the sea is in place, the details of the ship and the characters behind the sea The depth of the picture is drawn deeper and more three-dimensional, and the level of darkness on the horizontal lines of Haitian is also shown.
HDR effect test of ordinary video: The A860U system turns on HDR real-time conversion technology by default. We use the system's own left and right split-screen comparison of the signal source. On the left is the HDR function is not turned on, and the right is the effect that is turned on. The author thinks that although this contrasts The effect is somewhat exaggerated, but HDR real-time conversion can indeed bring about a certain degree of optimization to the picture quality.
Then continue to see how the A860U color saturation, color transitions, and contrast performance. In the color reproduction and saturation test, the fruit and vegetable color in the test picture are very bright, and the color saturation is substantial. In the color transition test, the level transition of the color gradation diagram is obvious, and the red and blue of the triangle top are obvious. Each green grid is clearly separated.
In the contrast test performance, as can be seen from the figure, the black model is in a dark background, the outline of the clothes is still clearly visible, while the white clothes in the white background is relatively not so clear, but the overall color is not biased, perform well.
Although there are no relevant settings related to MEMC motion compensation in the settings, from the trailing test, it can be seen that the A860U's restraining effect on the trailing of moving pictures and subtitle jitter is quite obvious. The following first screen shot is the football game. Shooting, fast-moving football has no trailing, and the movement process is very smooth; the second screen shot is the subtitles when the map is scrolled, the outline of the subtitles is clear and there is no glitch.
Sound quality: The return of the audio and video attributes of the Conchs sound system makes TV experience even better. Although the A860U does not have TCL's flagship high-end Harman Karton audio support, it has a centrally located Conchs sound system, adding a virtual surround sound system. , On the basis of not adding channels and speakers, through the sound algorithm processing, to create a surround sound field feel, but also equipped with a volume night automatic adjustment mode and Bluetooth separate listening function, the former will automatically turn down for sudden increase of the audio source Affects the loudness and sharpness of the voice, while the latter can use the TV stereo as a sound and turn off the screen to listen to music.
The Conchs sound sound system is quite satisfactory, but when it comes to portraying a Hollywood blockbuster, it has good bass. For instance, when watching some horror scenes, the low background music rendering will give the film more points, while the midrange voice is saturated and the positioning is accurate. In front of the TV, listening to the "oral songs" can feel the feeling of being surrounded by sound, and its price positioning is still quite cost-effective, but also enough to meet the viewing needs of ordinary families. The following video is a demonstration of the Bluetooth individual listening function. Everyone can experience the sound quality of the next TV through the following video (through the recording may be damaged, for reference only):
