The best TV I've ever owned! Incredible picture.
My previous TVs have all been budget brand. They were great, but they are not even in the same universe as the TCL QM9K. My oldest daughter recently moved out, so my wife and I decided to turn her old room into the movie/game (PS5) room. Being the central area for movies and gaming, we wanted a better TV. The QM9K absolutely delivered. I don't know if there is a better TV out there at the moment. First, it's packaged nicely. I installed it by myself, which was a little tricky. I recommend two people to put the stand on and put it where you want it. To install the stand, I used two of the side protector Styrofoam pieces to lift the bottom corners to install the stand. I will say that the specs list the stand as 47" wide, it's not. It actually measures 15.25" wide by 14.5" deep. It easily fits on a small dresser (our temporary spot until I mount it). It is a compact stand that doesn't take up much space, but it is deep enough to be very stable. Initial setup is easy. If you have the Google Home app, you can add it and it can import settings from the app. It also has Gemini built in. If you have the microphone on, you can say, "Hey Google, turn on/off the TV", plus anything else you want Gemini to do. There is a separate light at the bottom of the center panel where the power light is that comes on when it is listening. You can also set it to ambient mode when you walk in the room. The first thing I did after setup was watch a movie. It was night time and this TV is insanely bright. I also watched during the day and with two windows across from the TV and the sun hitting them, it was still bright and easy to see. I then watched a YouTube video that was 4K HDR of various scenes with a lot of color and contrast. (The pictures are from that video). With this TV having 6,000 local dimming zones, blacks are pure black and colors explode. I've never seen a TV this good with colors, blacks, contrast and saturation. It is absolutely top-tier. I have always had a soundbar for my living room TV, but with these speakers, I don't think I will be getting a soundbar. The sound is loud, clear and deep. It's the only TV that I've seen where you can see speakers on the back. It is plenty of sound for the smaller bedroom that we have it in. The remote is backlit, which I believe should just be the standard now. I will say that for me, the remote is a little lacking. It does have voice control and dedicated buttons for Netflix, Prime Video, Free TV, and YouTube. However, it doesn't have dedicated buttons for rewind, play/pause and fast forward. I would like to still have those buttons. I watch a lot of YouTube videos and to pause it, I have to hit the center button which brings up the progress bar on the video and then press it again to actually pause it. It would be nice if it was just one button press. Fast forward and rewind are the left and right side of the circle. Not terrible, and it's just me being nit-picky. For comparison, my budget TV remote has buttons for Netflix, YouTube, Prime Video, Disney+, Tubi, and a "favorite" button that is customizable to the app of your choice. I have that set to Hulu. It does have a play/pause button, but rewind and fast forward are the left and right of the circle button. Just having that play/pause button is great. I wish the QM9K remote had it. Again, nothing huge, just something I wish it had. Overall, this TV is in a class by itself. If you're looking for a TV, I cannot recommend the QM9K enough. It has absolutely blown me away.

Simply Amazing. You won’t be disappointed!
Ok, so I’m upgrading from a standard 4k to this beast. Even though my previous tv was 4k, it doesn’t even compare to some of the features. Setup. It’s pretty standard. I thought it was a tad confusing, but realized I was over analyzing it. It’s super easy to setup. Honestly taking it out of the box took longer than hooking up the base and setting it upright. I like how you can wall mount it or use the base. The base has two levels. One is lower or the other is higher if you have a soundbar. Powering on and running the update took about 15 mins, but that’s probably my internet connection at the time. I’m still messing around with the perfect settings, but I’m super happy so far. The refresh rate, the picture quality and sound are amazing. I love the built in subwoofer. It’s making my hockey watching so fun! Visually all the colors are popping magnificently. Sports are crisp and vibrant. The reds and black tones don’t disappoint. I was blown away at the red from the 49ers football jerseys. It was so impressive how rich the red color was. The refresh is quick and something I’m still getting use to it since I didn’t really use it with my previous tv. I was impressed with how the transition from Hulu to Disney+ to Netflix went. I still have to work on the refresh and color levels. But I was impressed with the basics. The room the tv is in is really bright, so I can make the adjustments for that. The sound has been impressive. I don’t think you need a subwoofer. It was great watching sports and then streaming something for the kids. Pros: 4K Apps Mobile app Dolby vision Motion rate 480 144Hz refresh rate 4 HDMIs HDR10 Smart capable Google voice Comfy and style remote Cons: Nothing so far Overall: This is simply amazing. I’ve loved every minute. I’m debating on streaming or using something like a Roku device and use a high quality hdmi to see the difference. I know it’s expensive, but you can’t go wrong with this beast. Now I want to get a ps5!
