WIRED WIRED 评测
Outstanding picture quality. Remote is backlit and mostly easy to use. Great picture quality customizations, even if they don’t all work perfectly. The artwork looks stunning. **优点:**出色的画质。遥控器带有背光,且大部分功能易于使用。拥有极佳的画质自定义选项,尽管并非所有设置都能完美运行。艺术模式显示效果令人惊艳。
TIRED 缺点:
Expensive. Very heavy and hard to maneuver. Requires a massive TV stand. Skin tone benchmarks are not as realistic or convincing as a Micro RGB model. 价格昂贵。机身非常沉重,难以搬运。需要超大型电视柜。肤色表现基准测试不如 Micro RGB 机型那样真实或令人信服。
Size matters when it comes to televisions, but it can also reveal some problems. At a bigger size, it’s easier to see flaws in clarity, brightness, and contrast. When a television uses brand new display technology, any visual imperfections are even more obvious. 对于电视而言,尺寸固然重要,但大尺寸也会暴露一些问题。在更大的屏幕上,清晰度、亮度和对比度方面的瑕疵更容易被察觉。当电视采用全新的显示技术时,任何视觉上的不完美都会变得更加明显。
The TCL RM9L RGB-Mini LED is a good example of a large television that reveals too much but—like the more vibrant LG Micro RGB Evo that’s around the same price—is still worth considering. More than anything, it shows how the settings you choose can make a world of difference in a Mini RGB television. TCL RM9L RGB-Mini LED 就是一个很好的例子,它作为大尺寸电视暴露了太多细节,但与价格相近、色彩更鲜艳的 LG Micro RGB Evo 一样,它仍然值得考虑。最重要的是,它展示了在 Mini RGB 电视上,你所选择的设置会带来天差地别的效果。
The 85-inch model I tested costs $7,999.99, but it’s typically discounted by $2,000. There’s also a 98-inch model ($8,999.99, which is usually $1,000 off) and a 115-inch size ($24,999.99). Most TV makers offer a 65-inch or 75-inch size, but TCL must have decided to go big or go home. 我测试的 85 英寸机型售价为 7,999.99 美元,但通常会有 2,000 美元的折扣。此外还有 98 英寸(售价 8,999.99 美元,通常优惠 1,000 美元)和 115 英寸(售价 24,999.99 美元)版本。大多数电视制造商提供 65 或 75 英寸机型,但 TCL 显然决定“要么做大,要么回家”。
In this case, going big felt a little overwhelming at times. The movies I watched on this TV in an average size living room certainly had luscious colors and phenomenal brightness, but a few of the streaming apps I tested lacked some crispness and clarity. Blaming TCL isn’t entirely fair, though, and the workaround is to play high-res content using apps like Fandango at Home in 4K or stick with 4K Ultra HD discs. That said, the picture quality was not as exceptional as I would have expected at a price point in the same league as Samsung and LG. 在这种情况下,大尺寸有时会让人感到有些压抑。我在普通大小的客厅里用这台电视看电影,色彩确实浓郁,亮度也惊人,但我测试的几个流媒体应用缺乏一些清晰度和锐度。不过,完全责怪 TCL 并不公平,解决方法是使用 Fandango at Home 等应用播放 4K 高分辨率内容,或者坚持使用 4K Ultra HD 蓝光碟。话虽如此,其画质并没有达到我预期的、与三星和 LG 同价位产品应有的卓越水平。
Also, the Mini RGB tech is so new that it’s barely out of the gate. Mini RGB televisions like the TCL RM9L emit red, blue, and green light through an LCD panel. OLED TVs do not use backlighting at all and can control each individual pixel. At the 85-inch size, there were some lingering questions about whether OLED still has a leg up in terms of brightness, deep and rich blacks, and contrast for movies, shows, games, and even news channels. Once I tweaked picture quality settings, I found RGB and OLED to be roughly equal in quality, but OLED models cost around $2,700 or less right about now, so it’s somewhat of a tough sell. 此外,Mini RGB 技术非常新,才刚刚起步。像 TCL RM9L 这样的 Mini RGB 电视通过 LCD 面板发出红、蓝、绿光。而 OLED 电视完全不使用背光,可以控制每一个像素。在 85 英寸这个尺寸上,关于 OLED 在电影、节目、游戏甚至新闻频道的亮度、深邃丰富的黑色以及对比度方面是否仍具优势,仍存在一些疑问。在我调整了画质设置后,发现 RGB 和 OLED 的质量大致相当,但目前 OLED 机型的价格在 2,700 美元左右甚至更低,因此这款产品在市场上有些难卖。
However, judged by the quality of the display, the overall experience, the exceptional size, and the ease of use, the TCL RM9L RGB-Mini LED still impressed me quite a bit. 然而,从显示质量、整体体验、卓越的尺寸和易用性来看,TCL RM9L RGB-Mini LED 仍然让我印象深刻。
Monster Setup
巨型设备安装
I had to make some tough decisions about the TCL RM9L RGB-Mini LED right away, including where to put it in my house. Your room size should dictate the size of your TV. Choose a model that’s too big for the room and you’ll feel like you are staring at a lightbulb. If the TV is too small, you won’t be able to read captions as easily and it won’t look as impressive. I chose my larger upstairs family room but didn’t have a TV stand that was big enough. For testing, I had to use a long folding table for a while until I upgraded to a larger IKEA stand later on. 我必须立即对 TCL RM9L RGB-Mini LED 做出一些艰难的决定,包括把它放在家里的什么位置。房间的大小应该决定电视的尺寸。如果选择的型号对房间来说太大,你会感觉像是在盯着一个灯泡看。如果电视太小,你看字幕会很吃力,视觉效果也不够震撼。我选择了楼上较大的家庭活动室,但没有足够大的电视柜。在测试期间,我不得不暂时使用一张长折叠桌,直到后来升级了一个更大的宜家电视柜。
Like many TCL televisions I’ve tested, the install process was straightforward and involved sliding the two legs into place and screwing them tight. I do like how some Samsung models don’t even require screws, though. Maneuvering the TV is challenging because of its massive size. The 85-inch model weighs more than 114 pounds, and it’s hard to get a good grasp on the edge, since it’s only 1.4 inches thick. I had to ask two friends to help me position this beast. 像我测试过的许多 TCL 电视一样,安装过程很简单,只需将两个支架滑入到位并拧紧螺丝即可。不过,我确实更喜欢三星某些机型那种无需螺丝的设计。由于体积庞大,搬运这台电视极具挑战性。85 英寸机型重量超过 114 磅(约 52 公斤),而且由于机身厚度仅为 1.4 英寸,很难抓稳边缘。我不得不请两位朋友帮忙才安置好这个“庞然大物”。
With the RM9L RGB-Mini, TCL doesn’t skimp on HDMI 2.1 ports. There are four total, and each one can support a 144Hz refresh rate for low latency PC gaming or whatever you want to throw at the television. One of the HDMI 2.1 ports is for eARC passthrough audio to powered speakers or a receiver. I added an Xbox Series X and a Google TV for testing and connected Klipsch the Nines II speakers. There are two USB ports (one coaxial), an Ethernet port for a wired connection, and a digital optical port. The TV uses Wi-Fi 6, which is fast and compatible. 在 RM9L RGB-Mini 上,TCL 在 HDMI 2.1 接口上毫不吝啬。总共有四个接口,每一个都支持 144Hz 刷新率,以满足低延迟 PC 游戏或任何你想要连接的设备需求。其中一个 HDMI 2.1 接口支持 eARC 音频回传,可连接有源音箱或功放。我添加了 Xbox Series X 和 Google TV 进行测试,并连接了 Klipsch The Nines II 音箱。电视还配备了两个 USB 接口(其中一个是同轴接口)、一个用于有线连接的以太网口和一个数字光纤接口。该电视支持 Wi-Fi 6,速度快且兼容性好。
I liked the remote for the most part, since it is clean and easy to use. The brightness controls are on the right-hand side, which is a surprisingly brilliant design choice. For late-night gaming sessions you can crank down the brightness quickly or pump it up when the sunlight pours in. Tiny notches on the remote for volume and channels help you locate them without looking. The buttons for free television channels and a few others seemed like overkill. Also, the Home button is not centered, so it’s harder to find. Thankfully at this price, the remote is backlit. 我大部分时间都很喜欢这个遥控器,因为它简洁易用。亮度调节键位于右侧,这是一个出人意料的绝佳设计。在深夜游戏时,你可以快速调低亮度,或者在阳光直射时调高亮度。遥控器上音量和频道键的小凹槽设计,让你无需低头就能定位。免费电视频道和其他几个按钮似乎有些多余。此外,主页键没有居中,所以比较难找。好在以这个价格,遥控器配备了背光功能。
Real-World Testing Results
实际测试结果
Two movies I always test right away, especially to see if the contrast and brightness are as exceptional as they should be for a television’s price, are Awake on Netflix and The Creator on the Fandango at Home app. That’s because these movies have extremely dimly lit scenes at night or predawn. Even some OLED models look washed out during a cycling scene in Awake in which the actor Gina Rodriquez passes a guy in a blue shirt. Only after selecting the Vivid picture mode could I see what was going on. I find Mini RGB tech to be fussy at times, requiring picture quality tweaks. 我总是第一时间测试两部电影,特别是为了观察对比度和亮度是否符合其价格应有的卓越水平,这两部电影分别是 Netflix 上的《觉醒》(Awake)和 Fandango at Home 应用上的《造物主》(The Creator)。这是因为这些电影中有许多在夜晚或黎明前极暗的场景。即使是某些 OLED 机型,在《觉醒》的一个骑行场景中(演员吉娜·罗德里格兹经过一个穿蓝色衬衫的人时),画面看起来也会发灰。只有在选择了“鲜艳”(Vivid)图像模式后,我才能看清发生了什么。我发现 Mini RGB 技术有时比较挑剔,需要进行画质微调。
For The Creator, an early scene by the ocean just didn’t have the vividness I would like for the price, looking slightly washed out without enough blue or deep blacks. Even after using Vivid or Dolby Vision IQ picture modes, the scene still looked too grayed out. 对于《造物主》,片头海边的场景并没有达到我所期望的、符合其价格的鲜艳度,看起来略显苍白,缺乏足够的蓝色或深邃的黑色。即使在使用“鲜艳”或“杜比视界 IQ”图像模式后,场景看起来仍然过于灰暗。
For skin tone benchmarks, the RM9L underperformed compared with the LG Micro RGB Evo. I noticed a lack of tonal variation, but in a side-by-side test against the LG television, there was more of a difference. That meant the RM9L matched up m… 在肤色表现基准测试中,RM9L 的表现不如 LG Micro RGB Evo。我注意到它缺乏色调变化,而在与 LG 电视的对比测试中,差异更加明显。这意味着 RM9L 在匹配……(原文截断)
