How’s the TCL tv bracket provided by Giant?

Can it be moved forward and swivel freely?
I’m too used to the LG tv bracket, don’t think it’s cross compatible?

TV brackets use VESA standard for mounting, just need to confirm what standard they're using, e.g. 100x100 or 400x400, etc.

The bracket itself determines if it swivels or what kind of features it comes with. With the Shopee & Carousell PIs, you can pick the kind you want. Not sure about Giant.

TCL TVs are VESA compatible. If your mount is a VESA mount, most probably they are compatible. Just have to make sure the mounting hole are correct. 300x300, 200x400 etc…

I’m using LG OLED mount for my Sony TV.

Thank you!
Sad thing... Disney+ HDR content still does not play, even via Chromecast :(

You mean when playing from the DIsney+ app installed on your TCL Android TV?

If you just spend a bit more and get a firetv 4k stick, there will be no problems.

Was thinking to buy:

65P715
65" UHD LED
$999

OR

55C716
55" QLED
$999


Either much bigger screen @ 65" or much better panel @ QLED ?
Pull the trigger and bought 65C716 @ $1,499 at Giants Tampines Hypermarket yesterday
Free delivery only :(

Installation of fixed wall bracket = $120
Installation on swivel wall bracket = $170

Hmmm.. Was hoping to keep to stock tv without additional devices. Thanks though.

Anyone updated to latest smarttube?

Seems like clicking a video in ST will play in YT.

65" C815 ($1,488 Carousell) vs 65" P715 ($999.00 Giant).

Is the 1/3 of the price increase for the C815 worth it?

Or is there even something better out there? for this size and price range?

Thank you!

Have a look at the picture quality, bring something along to see if you can discern the difference. If not, then pocket the difference, cheers.

Not worth to me. PI + steep price increase.
