For example, in terms of color gamut, some television products have excellent performance in the color gamut, even exceeding 100%, but they are actually not as beautiful as the publicity. Color distortion still exists. In other words, there is no point in pursuing numerical improvement. The Thunderbird I55C TV uses the QUHD Turbo quality engine to achieve precise color gamut control and prevent tone deviation and distortion. Here we test the gamut performance of this TV with objective instruments.
The instrument used in this test is the BM-7A luminance colorimeter produced by Topcon to measure the chromaticity coordinates of Thunderbird I55C TV in different colors, and calculate the contrast, color gamut, color temperature, color saturation and draw according to the corresponding values. The corresponding color characteristics map and so on. Before conducting this test, we first allowed the machine to work normally for one hour and restore it to the factory mode. The entire test environment was performed in the darkroom.
After actual measurement, the NTSC color gamut coverage of Thunderbird I55C TV reached 78%, which has exceeded the industry's standard color gamut coverage of 72% (NTSC1931). Although there is a certain gap between the high-end TV products in the market, it actually In the figure we can see that its color gamut coverage can basically cover the sRGB color gamut standard completely, and the color display can be said to be very accurate (due to the test environment and other issues, the data will have a small range of deviations).
