  • Miscellaneous Information, Settings Recommendations and a Potential Deal Breaker
Size: 65 inches
QM8k 65in ($998 paid for the tv) A fair and accurate non-compensated review. I’ll save you several searches, if you haven’t already done them, and tell you this tv is very highly regarded and universally recommended by trusted (Rtings and CNET…..) tv reviewing sites. The QM8k has narrowed OLED’s performance advantage by creating improved contrast levels and black level. While it can’t turn off pixels and hit infinite black, like an OLED, it produces what appears to my eyes as totally black. Perception is all that matters and that’s a Big Win for this tv. In general, QD QLED and is a better value than OLED and this tv shows proof of that. That’s my honest opinion. For the record, I’m picture picky. I prefer a bright, sharp, clean picture. Dark, heavy saturated pictures aren’t for me, which is why I chose QD over OLED. To get the “WoW” picture, I had to work the settings. It took several weeks to get everything right. There were lots of moving pieces. Persistence paid off and I now have the viewing experience I hoped I would get with this purchase. The actual picture this tv produces, for under $1000, is phenomenal. This may help you find “WoW” a bit quicker. First choose Mode (Movie or Film Maker Picture with Google or Dolby Vision IQ (BEST PICTURE) with a Fire Stick) Choose your Gamma (2.2 plus or minus 1) Then set both Global Contrast and Local Contrast levels to MAX Adjust Black Level (49 plus or minus 1) and then reduce Brightness (40 plus or minus 10) Peak Luminance (Dynamic, or Standard at night if your eyes Fatigue easily) Color Saturation (52 plus or minus 2) and Tint (63 plus or minus 2) White Balance Two Point Color Adjustment (Gain 0, -8,-3; OffSet -1,0, -1) Color Temp (4 Warm plus or minus 1), Sharpness (10) and Motion (Custom Blur 2, Judder 2) This will get you close to a “WoW” picture and is a treat to look at. Once dialed in, the picture is remarkably good. Almost alive with a perception of depth. Some folks say the “out of box” picture is acceptable. It wasn’t for me. If making adjustments isn’t for you, look for a simpler tv. Again, that’s just my opinion. Things you might want to know before you make a purchase decision. The QM8k is a 4k tv, not an 8k. It is misleading to use the term 8k. I’m guessing that’s a marketing ploy. Considering that 8k material isn’t universally available and that I doubt the human eye can discern the difference between 4k and 8k, TCL can call this tv what ever they want. The QM8k runs off the Google Platform. I personally prefer the Fire Stick Platform, here’s why. I spent $30 on a 4k Max Fire Stick. I am able to stream everything (Prime, NetFlix…. ) through Dolby Vision now. I think the visuals are better using Dolby Vision and the Google Platform doesn’t presently support Dolby Vision. Perhaps it will in a future software update. Fire Stick load time is quick, less than 3 seconds, from power on to the Home Screen. Also, the remote that comes with the FireStick 4k Max is universal and controls my sound system. The remote that comes with this TCL TV isn’t universal. Lastly, the Fire Stick remote isn’t backlit so it doesn’t eat batteries like this TV’s does. If you are thinking about cutting the cable cord, the QM8k would be a good choice. It has a built in ATSC 3 tuner, meaning it can pull NextGen stations with an over air antenna. Invest $40 bucks now, and no more cable bill. I get 8 NextGen channels, all four networks and all delivered at 4k, actually providing a BETTER picture than my old cable provider. I also get 40 additional over air stations, but they aren’t 4k. Also, this TV comes with TCL+ TV. That’s 200 more unexpectedly watchable free channels. Down side, they have commercials. Rant: I don’t get manufacturers bragging about their tv being over say 3000 nits. This tv is bright and at full luminescence caused me eye fatigue. I reduced brightness while maxing contrast and balanced the picture with Black Level. That did the trick. Thankfully, the QM8k isn’t as bright as TCL’s flagship from last year. I see consumers and reviewers panning the tv because of that. Ridiculous. 5000 nits (which is overkill in my opinion) is blinding especially at night. Thankfully, TCL realized improving dark level performance and color accuracy were key to better visuals. The picture, once calibrated, is more color accurate than its competing rival, who by the way, doubled down on an even brighter model for this year and proceeded to create worse PQ EOTF Tracking (accuracy compared to the film directors intentions) in the process. This tv has a lot of dimming zones. It produces high contrast, but it isn’t infinite (again overkill in my opinion) like OLED. I seriously doubt that unless I had a $2000 OLED sitting side by side for a direct comparison, I could tell the difference. If you set Gamma to 2.6, which I don’t personally prefer, it adds an OLED richness to the picture. However, that picture is too dark for my tastes. Over $2000 the QD OLED’s win due to infinite black levels and enough brightness, in my opinion. However, I’m not paying $2000 for a TV, especially with MicroQD (potentially Bravia10) sets just around the corner. It’s my belief that the vast majority of TV’s being purchased are inexpensive sets (under $500) with decent pictures. If I’m not mistaken, TCL is currently number two, in total sets sold in America and appears to be chasing down Samsung. I believe this is a good thing for consumers. Competition from the newer companies, like TCL, will ultimately force the old school makers (think Sony, Samsung and LG) to drop prices, assuming these newer Chinese companies don’t chase the money grab and raise their prices. OLED best read the market carefully (reduce cost) or potentially face the problems Plasma faced. I’ve always been a Samsung guy, but times have changed for me. If I get six problem free years from this tv, I’ll consider that a Big win. Lastly, Buyer Beware: Early Adopters are getting defective panels. It’s a shame that TCL seems to be having build issues. Panel Lottery is a red flag that TCL will have to address. Make sure you have a return policy in place. Remember, Amazon’s premium delivery will take the tv back, in real time, if it doesn’t have a sharp screen, or has weak colors, poor audio or doesn’t boot up properly. And manually double check to insure you have the latest FirmWare update. As for mine, it is now 5 months old and performing perfectly. Update as of 11/24/25 I’m seeing less reports of folks receiving defective panels over the past month. Of course I have no way of knowing if TCL has actually tightened up manufacturing. I do believe TCL is a solid, well run company or I wouldn’t have purchased the tv from them. So fingers crossed that those early production problems have been addressed. Consumers win when competition is fierce. ... show more

  • Solid TV!
Size: 65 inches
Did a lot of research on this TV before purchase. For me, this is an amazing TV. I have my PS5 connected to it and the games look great on it. I did have to do some minor changes to the picture settings out of the box, but I used rtings.com suggested values and just adjusted brightness to my liking and room conditions. I did turn off adaptive brightness, because for me it was distracting. But the packaging was great, putting the stand together was simple. Cable management consists of some clips that go on the back of the TV. The only issue that I have encountered thus far is the OTA update system that TCL uses is not reliable. My TV came with firmware v206. Auto update said there were no further updates available, however v237 is current which is 2 updates past the stock firmware I had. I had to contact TCL support to assist with doing a manual firmware update. There were nice and helpful, I used the online chat option. They followed up by email with instructions and also followed up after the firmware was installed. Overall I got a solid deal on this TV during Amazon Prime Day, but after receiving it and experiencing it, It is still worth the current price that it is going for (Currently $1,297) I had hesitations about trying TCL but I have been pleasantly surprised by this model and would recommend this model for sure to anyone who is not quite ready or able to do an OLED. ... show more

  • Huge, bright, capable.
Size: 98 inches
This TV is massive, so make sure you're sitting at an appropriate distance. It is VERY bright as well and can overcome all the glare seen when the screen is off. As far as image quality and all of that goes, read reviews from the many tech sites if that's what gets you going, but for me its perfect. No noticeable blooming on white text with a black screen, so that's awesome. The requirement to "sign in" to google for using some of the features of the tv is absolutely nonsense though. It isn't necessary for any of my use cases so far, and I see no compelling reason to do it at the moment. It does put off some noticeable heat when you walk by the screen when its on, but really that's to be expected. No problems, and love it. ... show more

  • Wow just WOW!

Beautiful TV. So bright and colorful. Sound quality through my receiver is also significantly improved over my 6 year old Sony Bravia. Very pleasantly calibrated right out of the box. Google TV works well. Streaming quality and speed is terrific. Really not much negative to say about this. And the price during Prime days was an absolute bargain. Very happy with this purchase. ... show more

  • Bang for the Buck
Size: 85 inches
We have owned a lot of big screen, TVs and this 85@ TCL QM8K is by far the finest picture of any TV including OLEDs, we have owned. Fantastic resolution, no noticeable ghosting or blooming of white areas and if Dolby HD is in the streaming production, we’re watching…. Outstanding. Definitely the best bang for your buck. ... show more
