To begin with, we will have a 4K resolution that gives us four times more power than Full HD , which translates into better details that will be seen in more realistic scenes.<\/p>\n<p>Another of the strengths in this section is that we have a Mini LED panel that gives us considerable power,\u00a0and we will notice this mostly when we are in very dark\u00a0and\u00a0bright environments\u00a0.\u00a0As if that were not enough, an interesting variety of technologies have been integrated that will give us a much more powerful experience.<\/p>\n<p>For example, the\u00a0Adaptive Content\u00a0and\u00a0Adaptive Brightness functions\u00a0that, as their name mentions, are responsible for adapting the content to the environment so that it is implemented in a brutal way.\u00a0In search of giving us a much more natural color, we find\u00a0Quantum Dot Color\u00a0that gives us much more vivid and intense colors at all times.<\/p>\n<p>We will receive a similar improvement in specific parameters such as contrast and brightness that will obtain greater sharpness and depth.\u00a0We are also going to notice much more fluid and precise movements, especially in action content, since we have\u00a0Noise Reduction\u00a0and\u00a0Motion Clarity Pro\u00a0.\u00a0We have\u00a0HDR10 +\u00a0,\u00a0Dolby Vision\u00a0and\u00a0HLG support.<\/p>\n<h3>Sound<\/h3>\n<p>A television of these capabilities could not deliver low audio quality, and that is why we find a total power of 100W that will be enough to hear everything quite clearly regardless of the content requirement.\u00a0It should be noted that important enhancement functions such as\u00a0Adaptive Content\u00a0,\u00a0Dolby Atmos\u00a0and\u00a0DTS-HD\u00a0are also integrated\u00a0.<\/p>\n<h2>Smart TV \/ software review and more highlights<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-81381 size-full lazyloaded\" title=\"We have the most powerful version of Android, which ensures excellent performance\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/T3-7.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-81381\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">We have the most powerful version of Android, which ensures excellent performance<\/p>\n<p>If all of the aforementioned makes the TCL 65C825 worthwhile , you should know that it also includes the most recent version of Android, therefore, we are going to receive all the improvements implemented for this update. Among the most noteworthy we have a good optimization and a totally intuitive and fast navigation .<\/p>\n<p>Likewise, we enjoy a fairly wide application catalog, in fact, it is the largest within all systems,\u00a0since it has more than 5,000 options to install\u00a0.\u00a0As if that were not enough, it offers us the Play Store that allows us to download movies, music and games, yes, much of this content is paid, which can be a difficulty.<\/p>\n<p>We will also receive compatibility with\u00a0Amazon Alexa\u00a0and\u00a0Google Assistant\u00a0, two quite powerful assistants that give us the opportunity to control certain functions of the TV using only the voice.\u00a0It turns out to be an interesting model for gaming, since it has\u00a0AMD FreeSync\u00a0,\u00a0Game Master Pro\u00a0,\u00a0Game Mode\u00a0and\u00a0Low Input Lag\u00a0.<\/p>\n<p>As can be seen we are facing one of the best televisions of this brand, the best of all is that its cost does not rise too high compared to those of other firms in their more advanced models.\u00a0Without a doubt, we think it is an excellent option that we are sure will meet your main needs.<\/p>\n<h2>TCL 65C825: Pros and Cons<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>PROS:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Very valuable design<\/li>\n<li>Offers HDMI 2.1 and Bluetooth 5.2<\/li>\n<li>Great image quality<\/li>\n<li>Variety of technologies<\/li>\n<li>Compatible with HDR10 + and Dolby Vision<\/li>\n<li>Powerful sound<\/li>\n<li>Includes Google Assistant and Alexa<\/li>\n<li>Gaming Features<\/li>\n<li>Chromecast Built-in<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>CONS:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Does not include USB 3.0<\/li>\n<li>Could include more USB ports<\/li>\n<li>cost<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We have analyzed a large number of televisions belonging to the\u00a0TCL\u00a0brand\u00a0, most of which have been good options for users.\u00a0It is true that we have found their best equipment in the mid-range, however, for this year they have wanted to take a step forward and release a truly equipped model.\u00a0We are talking about the\u00a0TCL 65C825.
