Is brighter always better? We pit two TVs against each other to find out

Two impressive Mini LED performers battle it out, but which one comes out on top?

Have the Bravia 7 and it's a great screen.

Two things though WHF -

"The Bravia 7's Filmmaker Mode actually works as intended, retaining natural colours and convincing blacks without looking flat or lifeless."

The Bravia 7 doesn't have a Filmmaker mode (unless I have missed an update) and one of the headings in the article (Price) refers to the TCL C8K.

Come on, get it right please!

I don’t seem to have Filmmaker mode on my Sony Bravia 7 either, having just checked the picture settings while watching Sky Q.

Now that begs the question - whoever reviewed it, were they sat in front of the TV when they wrote that?

From the AVForums Bravia 7 review...

"The Sony BRAVIA 7 TV lacks a Filmmaker Mode (FMM), a now widely supported industry initiative for viewing content as intended. Instead, Sony offers its accurate picture preset, Professional mode, which we found to be the closest to industry standards after performing a factory reset and measuring all picture presets. This is the recommended mode for viewing content accurately on this TV."

Certainly a concern for me. Perhaps we'll get an explanation?
