One of the best TVs on the market today
I have been living with the new TCL 98QM7K 98" TV that I picked up during Black Friday for 50% off, for a couple of weeks, and I have so many different things that I have observed. (retail $3,999.99 – purchased for $1,999.99) First is the TCL is massive! I had a Samsung 82UN8000 from 2019 in my theater room for the last six years. Two years ago, I added an Epson 2350 4k projector with a 100” screen. Generally, I install my own TVs, but when I purchased the TCL from Best Buy, installation was included. The Best Buy installers did a great job. The only problem we ran into was the TV would not fit down my basement stairs initially. I had to remove the null post and railing for the TV’s box to make the turn into the basement. Once downstairs there was no problem with the installation. The QM7K Mini LED series from TCL is the third one from the top-of-the-line QM9K. The QM7K was highly regarded at last years CES for it’s deep blacks and vibrant colors. Upscaling from 720p and 1080P is very good, whether it is from Blu Ray, cable or streaming. With 144 Hz refresh rate this TV is outstanding for Gaming with very little motion lag. Ultra 4K Blu Ray looks stunning with all details you would expect. Streaming from TCL’s Google OS is very clear and shows very little motion blur. When viewing YouTube in 4K the picture looks great. Streaming from my Roku Premier is again stunning with deep blacks and colors that pop regardless of the app! But this is where I found a bit of a quality outlier when using the Apple Tv 4K. The nice thing about the Apple TV is it upscales everything to 4K and in Dolby Vision. Wow does the picture jumps out of the screen! So now all the concent that I view from my Apple TV is upscaled to Dolby Vision! One crazy thing that the 98” TV can do is display four simultaneous 48” screens at once from the NFL package on YouTube. One of the things that I have read about the newest TCL line up, is they are taking picture quality seriously and aiming for the big dogs like Samsung, LG and Sony. The processing is not at Sony’s level, but TCL as well as Hisense is giving the big three a run for their money, and reviewers are noticing. Rtings provided a glowing review as one of the best budget TVs. Outside of OLED these are the best blacks I have ever seen, rivaling my old Panasonic VT60 Plasma. I have always tried to stay with the current established TV brands like Sony, Samsung and LG for quality of picture and reliability. But remember back in the day, it was Sony, Panasonic and Pioneer that were the top tier. LG (Lucky Goldstar) and Samsung were the budget brands that flooded the market with affordable TVs until they knocked them off their pedestals. TCL and Hisense have done exactly what LG and Samsung did in the 80’s and the 90’s. Affordable TVs with outstanding specs and pictures. As for reliability, we’ll have to wait and see. As for TCL, I have always recommended them to friends and family who were in search of a good budget TV with Roku or Google operating systems. But these new TCLs and Hisense TVs are a force to be reckoned with.

Outstanding 98” TV – incredible picture quality
I absolutely love this TV. The picture quality is outstanding, with excellent brightness, deep contrast, and very vibrant colors. The 98-inch size is impressive and truly transforms the living room into a home theater experience. I use it mainly for movies, streaming, and sports, and everything looks amazing. The image is sharp, smooth, and very immersive. Setup was straightforward and the Google TV interface works great. Overall, this TV exceeded my expectations. I’m very satisfied with my purchase and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a large, high-quality TV.

Just buy it!
This is a great TV. I was on the fence just like you but am glad I made the purchase! Pros: Beautiful picture. For a 98 inch tv the picture is bright and vibrant. All of the modern features made for the ultimate theatrical experience at home. Sound is good for a tv but just about any $200 soundbar will be better. Cons: Google TV is slow and clunky. Not a fan of the ads and you can’t customize the dashboard. Throw a Roku ultra or Apple TV on it and its amazing.
