The LG NANO75 is less expensive and offers satisfactory performance for sports content with better viewing angles due to its IPS screen, making it suitable for wide seating. But, it is not as good in dark rooms and has lower overall picture quality. The TCL QM8 costs more but provides significantly superior picture quality, especially in dark rooms and for High Dynamic Range (HDR) content. It's also better for gaming with its higher refresh rate and has better contrast due to its VA screen. However, its narrower viewing angles may not be ideal for wide seating arrangements.

The TCL QM8 (LCD) and LG NANO75 (LCD) are both only fair for news, talk, & other TV, though the TCL QM8 (LCD) is somewhat better.
The LG NANO75 performs decently in upscaling lower resolution content and offers good colors out of the box, which are important for viewing news and TV programs, but it has poor SDR brightness and lacks local dimming that can affect its picture quality in well-lit rooms.

The TCL QM8 (LCD) is best in class for bright room, while the LG NANO75 (LCD) is poor.
The TCL QM8 is best for a bright room primarily because it offers superior reflections handling and exceptional HDR brightness, ensuring clear visibility even in well-lit environments. On the other hand, the LG NANO75 struggles in bright rooms due to its poorer reflections handling and lackluster HDR brightness, which can result in a washed-out picture when exposed to ambient light.

The LG NANO75 (LCD) and TCL QM8 (LCD) are both only fair for sports.
The LG NANO75 has a wider viewing angle which is beneficial for watching sports with friends, but its response time and motion processing are only fair, meaning some viewers may notice blurring during fast-paced games. Conversely, the TCL QM8 has very good response time, offering sharper motion, but it has a narrower viewing angle, so the picture quality might diminish when viewed from the side; both models perform well in managing reflections, but the TCL QM8 has a slight edge in this area..

About LG
LG, a prominent TV brand from Korea, has played a significant role in popularizing OLED TVs. OLED technology is hailed as the future of TV technology. Their TVs employ WebOS, a proprietary smart TV software that not only offers seamless functionality but also includes gaming-specific features, earning praise from players worldwide. Often regarded as the gateway to unparalleled viewing experiences, LG's mid-range OLEDs come highly recommended, making them a worthwhile investment for those willing to stretch their budget for superior quality.
About TCL
TCL, the highly recognizable TV brand from China, has firmly established itself as the second-largest manufacturer in terms of sales volume. Renowned for striking an impressive balance between affordability, picture quality, and design, TCL TVs deliver a compelling overall package. While they have traditionally excelled in the low-end and midrange TV segments, TCL has recently made remarkable strides in the realm of high-end televisions, introducing impressive models that rival top competitors. Most TCL TVs use Roku software which is very user friendly and easy to use, but they have a few other models that use Google TV which has the largest app selection, but is not as user friendly as Roku.
