TCL - 98" Class QM6K Series 4K UHD HDR QD Mini LED Smart TV with Google TV (2025)

I’ve been an home theater enthusiast since the early days around 2003 of the technology. Accumulating a lot of equipment over the yrs. Trying to keep up with technology. This TV is no different. Switched from a 110” front projection. Epson. 1080p from 2016. The difference is night and day. Modern tech with plenty of brightness and features. A lot heavier than my projection screen tho. Lol.. Me and my family are loving it! 3rd tcl we have in the house.

I have an LG OLED and a Panasonic Vierra from 2013 also have a Samsung 9000 series 4k 65 inch from 2014 it was the first 4k Samsung tv to come out and it was 10 grand at the time. So I have an exceptional knowledge of quality tvs and this TCL 98 inch QM6K mini led TV absolutely exceeded expectations. I had high doubts about the brand and the durability and quality but I have to say it’s the closest thing to my LG OLED. I love the size and the border is barely viable giving you a bit of a theater experience. I use a PS5 to watch all my movies stream and gaming. The PS5 gives it an extra boost of clarity and speed also it just looks better although the google play apps produce a nice picture as well for streaming but I find that streaming through the PS5 is much better. It’s not as bright as my OLED but it’s bright enough to where you won’t notice the difference unless they were side by side. On the other hand the contrast and color is just unmatched it’s by far better than any 98inch in its class. The reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is because I hooked up the TCL S55 2.1 soundbar and it truly upgraded the tv. It’s pushing 220 watts and the subwoofer gives you a theater like experience like no other in its class. I’m extremely happy with my purchase. And I highly recommend buying this set with the soundbar as an add on. With the soundbar it will get 5 stars.

Just picked up the TCL 98" QM6K and wow—this thing is a monster in the best way. The picture is insanely sharp, colors pop like crazy, and the brightness holds up even in daylight. Gaming on it feels like stepping into another world, and the built-in sound system actually surprised me—no soundbar needed. Setup was smooth, and Google TV makes streaming super easy. Honestly, it turned my living room into a legit theater. If you’ve got the space, this TV delivers big-time.

I spent a lot of time researching tvs for our new house and ultimately ended up on a 2024 TCL QM7. despite it's high brightness levels and superior contrast, daytime use was almost unwatchable due to the high glare in our bright natural light living room. The 98 QM6K remedied that issue and honestly I can't tell a difference on brightness vs the QM7. Gaming features are nice, and the 4k 144hz was instantly recognized and working on my home theater PC. Very satisfied with the purchase and even ordered a second 85" of the same TV for upstairs. I have added a photo below of the matte 98 QM6K and the 98 QM7 with black screens to show the difference in how the matte affects day time watching vs high gloss/glare of the QM7

Amazing for the space i have. The matte finish helps avoid glare from windows in the living room. Bestbuy may install service very easy. First watch was Jurasic park and was amazong to see the big dinos on the big screen. Ai upscaling where able helped increase the resolution and veiwing experience. Tv speakers are very good but so far using a sound bar has been better. Extremely nice to connect to my already existong google home services.
