Multiple Brands (Roku and TCL) - Q85H

At first glance, the only difference is that the Hisense AX5140Q, as its name suggests, has four superior channels for greater immersion. If you have streaming services, or even Blu-rays (which offer the best audio experience due to their uncompressed formats like TrueHD + Atmos or DTS-HD + DTS-X), that take full advantage of Dolby Atmos audio, these are two soundbars that won't disappoint. An added bonus is DTS-X compatibility, which, although not widely used, is an important factor when buying a soundbar if you're a big DTS fan (both soundbars are compatible, but there you have it). It was precisely because of this compatibility that I bought the TCL Q85H 7.1.4 and not an Ultimea Skywave X60 (plus, I bought the TCL when it cost €367 compared to the other one's nearly €500-€600). You also get a bit more power (600W compared to the other one's 580W). The Hisense AX5100Q's power is still sufficient; you won't notice a substantial difference. Also, keep in mind that, being a newer model, you'll have better update support. If you want the soundbar to last you several years, I'd go for the more expensive one. Always buy what you think is best for you. Both soundbars offer great value for money. I'm sure neither will disappoint you, but I would pay that extra for the reasons I mentioned earlier.

If if wasn’t already getting a ps5 pro and a TV, I would’ve grabbed the q85h, it’s great for the price i think. Works well with other TCL TVs https://www.bestbuy.com/product/tcl-q85h-q-class-7-1-4-channel-sound-bar-with-dolby-atmos-wireless-subwoofer-and-wireless-surround-speakers-black/J36QYTWZF6/sku/6580777?sb_share_source=PDP&ref=app_pdp&loc=pdp_page

I used to have q930c q990d q930d hisens 5.1,tcl 7.1.4 all are good soundbar but I already sold it.now I have q990f 3. And one jbl 5.1.2 model 800.when new jbl mk2 1300 come i will buy .

I've been enjoying my TCL Q85H Pro - definite caveat on this. It needs a firmware update as it sounds like absolute rubbish, the update process is a nightmare, this is because you have to set it up via apple device (had to borrow an friend's) to get it onto wifi and then when its on wifi it will eventually push the update. If you're happy to go through the loopholes I believe it was worth it. The sound quality is now as expected which I am happy with.

The TCL Q85H or even Q75H is excellent in this regard as well. At 499, it's a steal with top notch Atmos performance and Ray Danz technology (sound beam)

I have a TCL Q85H (7.1.4) setup. Soundbar, sub, and two satellite speakers. After a few rounds of firmware updates, it sounds fantastic and I actually have my Panasonic UB-820 plugged directly into it.

We just got an 85" QM6k with the Q85H and it sounds amazing. Works flawlessly with TCL TV's of course. Does need an update to the latest firmware as there is a wind sound that comes from the satellite speakers, but after that it sounds incredible with everything that we have watched so far

I’ve got a TCL Q85H. Had it since January and I’m really not impressed. I’ve been considering replacing it with the new Nakamichi Wireless. I just wish there were more reviews out there. I’ve been eyeing some open box options at their eBay store.

yeah, like value wise the ax5125h and q85h are really hard to beat. they have their quirks but we found the only real way to beat them is to get one of the older gen samsungs on sale. but even then, samsung cancelled a bunch of the q990d orders that were absolute steals.

Hi everyone, I live in Italy and I also bought this soundbar. I updated the firmware as specified in the previous comments. Unfortunately the problem with the rear speakers remains. Unbelievable wind noise from the rear speakers. Also the volume of speech is sometimes low compared to everything else. Even with Atmos content. Do you have any news? So this soundbar is useless

hi, I updated as you said but unfortunately the rear speakers still have the problem of wind noise. have you solved it? it’s really unnerving and tcl doesn’t care. they advised me to redo the pairing of the speakers (absurd)

This soundbar is a shit. TCL after 4 updates failed to solve the wind problems. I can hardly watch a movie listening from this soundbar. Spend a little more and go to Samsung. I’m very disappointed with TCL

Come ti trovi con questo aggiornamento? Io ho ancora problemi di rumore del vento dalle casse posteriori. Assurdo

Hi, I installed the latest version but it sounds terrible and I hear the wind noise almost always. Did you hear from customer service by any chance? So this soundbar is useless

Ciao, ho lo stesso problema del rumore del vento. Hai risolto?
