QM5K - The Underdog TV KING
Solid performance overall. People undecided between the QM5K vs QM6K , QM5K has everything the QM6K has bar 144hz refresh rate (since almost eveyone streams their sports via apps in usa this is not gonna help you in any way. if the source is good quality with higher bit rate then only it matters .For all app related sports this feature is redundant) for games you can use at 2k 144hz so you are not missing out. QM5Ks have 3 hdmi ports with only one port is full bandwidth 2.1 port (shouldn’t matter for most unless you are using dedicated blu ray or 4k player with dedicated sound setup in which case there is one still available on the QM5K) Overall the picture quality the brightness and overall quality matches with QM6K for a lot lesser

Great Value!
After 9 or so years our Samsung started to go bad. I wasn’t looking to drop a ton of money and did a good bit of research before landing on this model. I was back and forth between this and the qm6k. I decided to save some money and get the qm5k, we don’t game so the lower refresh rate wasn’t as important for us. Very happy with the tv, great colors and performs well in our bright living room. For the price this tv is hard to beat. Built in speakers seem decent, but I have ours hooked to a surround sound, so can’t say too much about them overall. Now that I’ve moved away from the big names, I think TCL will continue to get my business.

TCL Tv
I’m honestly really happy with this TCL TV. For the price, the picture quality is way better than I expected. The colors are bright, it’s super clear, and streaming shows and movies look great. Setup was quick and easy — I had it up and running in no time. I also like how simple the menu is to navigate. The apps load fast and I haven’t had any lag issues. The sound is decent on its own, but paired with a soundbar it’s perfect. Overall, it feels like I got way more than what I paid for. Definitely a solid buy and I’d recommend it if you want something affordable that still performs really well.
