Awesome Tv!!
This thing is awesome!! Thought it would be too big, but fits out space perfectly. Was a no-brainer with the Black Friday deal. Great picture and has a gaming mode and light up remote. It’s big and cannot be mounted alone and will need a heavy duty mount. I installed with 2 others helping, but looking back I would pay for the mounting install due to size and weight. Overall awesome tv so far!! Get one!!

Absolutely Blown Away!
I picked up the TCL Q55K 98” TV on Black Friday, and it has completely transformed my home entertainment experience. The sheer size of the screen makes every movie, show, and game feel larger than life — it’s like having a personal cinema right in my living room. The picture quality is phenomenal: colors are vibrant, blacks are deep, content looks stunningly realistic. Even in a bright room, the display holds up beautifully. Google TV and smooth navigation put endless apps at my fingertips.no more Roku or Firesticks Setup was surprisingly easy for such a massive screen, but make no mistake - it is HEAVY, i actually reconstructed my wall to be able to support it. Hence the dust - you will need help, and the sleek design fits perfectly into my space. The built-in sound is solid, but paired with a soundbar it’s truly theater-quality. What amazes me most is the value — getting a premium 98” QLED at this price feels like the deal of the decade. Final Verdict: If you’re on the fence, don’t be. If you missed out a Black Friday - don’t sleep again, check for it in the spring, The TCL Q55K 98” delivers jaw-dropping performance, unbeatable value, and pure joy. Best Black Friday buy ever!

Great Value
We put this in our finished basement/theater room. Incredible value for the money. My primary TV is an OLED and this doesn't handle dark scenes as well as an OLED or mini-led but that was my expectation so not deducting any stars. Picture is very good, deals with motion well. Overall good gaming performance. Smart functionality fast and responsive. Speakers aren't great but I'm using a sound bar. Packaged well. Mounting was a 3 person job but not terrible.
