The LG NANO75 is less expensive and may suffice if you're on a tight budget. It has an LED IPS panel which generally offers wider viewing angles. On the other hand, the TCL R745 costs more but features a 120Hz refresh rate compared to the 60Hz of the LG, granting smoother motion for action-packed content and gaming. It also has an LED VA panel that typically provides better contrast ratios, making it preferable if you frequently watch movies in dark rooms. However, the TCL might not be as well-suited for very bright rooms due to its panel type. Give Feedback

The LG NANO75 (LCD) and TCL R745 (LCD) are both poor for movies & TV.
The LG NANO75 and TCL R745 both struggle with watching movies and cinematic TV primarily due to their low contrast and lack of local dimming which leads to poor black uniformity, meaning dark scenes won't look as deep and may appear gray. Additionally, while they offer good colors out of the box and viewing angles, their color volume and gray uniformity are subpar, further affecting the picture quality in vibrant and dark scenes, respectively.

The LG NANO75 (LCD) and TCL R745 (LCD) are both only fair for sports.
Both LG NANO75 and TCL R745 LCD TVs have limitations when it comes to watching sports, mainly because of their fair motion processing capabilities, reflective screens, and narrow viewing angles, which can affect how well you see fast-moving objects and from different seating positions. The LG NANO75 has a slight edge with better motion processing, which is very important for fast-paced games, while both TVs handle reflections similarly and offer limited viewing angles, with gray uniformity being somewhat important, yet both TVs deliver comparable performance in this aspect.

The LG NANO75 (LCD) and TCL R745 (LCD) are both poor for cartoons & animation.
The LG NANO75 and the TCL R745 both show colors out of the box and have similar color gamuts, which are just adequate rather than excellent, thus affecting the vibrancy needed for cartoons and animation. Additionally, with both having lower performance in color volume and gray uniformity, they may not be able to display the full range of tones and even color distribution essential for animated content.

The LG NANO75 (LCD) and TCL R745 (LCD) are both only fair for news, talk, & other TV.
The LG NANO75 and TCL R745 both have fair performance in upscaling content and offer similar SDR brightness, which is important for watching news and TV programs. However, the LG NANO75 might handle colors a bit better right out of the box, whereas the TCL R745, with its higher contrast ratio and lack of local dimming, may not offer as rich a viewing experience in terms of color depth and detail in darker scenes.

The LG NANO75 (LCD) and TCL R745 (LCD) are both poor for bright room.
The LG NANO75 and the TCL R745 struggle in bright rooms due to their poor SDR and HDR brightness levels, which means they won't stand out well in a sunlit room. Both TVs also have just a fair handling of reflections, which combined with their low brightness, can make it difficult to see the picture clearly in well-lit environments.

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.
