I had to buy a new TV unexpectedly after my old one broke during a move, so I needed something high-quality without spending an obscene amount of money. The TCL QM7K has turned out to be a perfect choice. The Mini-LED backlighting and QD panel deliver a bright, crisp picture with deep contrast, and HDR movies look far better than I expected at this price point.
I use the built-in Google TV apps constantly — Netflix, Hulu, YouTube, all of it — and everything runs smoothly with no lag or crashing. The interface is clean and responsive, so I haven’t needed any additional streaming devices.
For gaming, I mostly use it casually with my PS5, and it’s been excellent. The low input lag and 4K 120Hz/144Hz capabilities make gameplay feel smooth, and the colors and brightness really make games pop.
By no means am I an expert in picture quality, but I would say this is a good choice for most users. We have the TV mounted on our wall in the living room that gets a lot of natural light (although no direct light on the TV), and we've never had issues with glare, colors, or contrast. Looking at it side-by-side in the store with other TV's, it was definitely on the upper end of affordable TVs; it wasn't as vivid as the $2000 ones, but for the price I'd say its a great value.
The only thing I can't really comment on is the sound since we use a Sonos system with it. We've use the sound once or twice from the TV, but it wasn't anything mind-blowing.
Overall, I'd say this TV delivers a ton of performance for the price. If you’re looking for a good-quality TV that handles streaming and gaming well without breaking the bank, the QM7K is a fantastic value.

The TCL QM7K delivers excellent picture quality for the price. Bright, vibrant colors, strong contrast, and impressive HDR performance make movies and shows look fantastic. Gaming is smooth thanks to 120Hz, VRR, and HDMI 2.1 support. Google TV is fast and easy to use.

Only have had this a week but so far so good. Great quality and features for gaming. Very responsive interface and apps run fast and smooth. The "Game Manager" is a little confusing to operate but has nice options. I like that it has 3 HDMI ports that are 4k 144hz and that the eARC port is in the 4th slot instead of the 1st slot like alot of tvs have done in the past. I wasnt focused on on-board sound since i have a surround system BUT was impressed that it had 2 subs on the back of the tv. Though i have not listened to the sound without the surround sound so I cant comment on the quality.

I’ll be honest this tv blew me away. I was in the market for simple budget tv in my bedroom and for the price Tcl hit the mark. At any rate coming from a high end oled in my family room I didn’t give this tv much credit before setting it up. Well I was wrong, the picture quality was amazing after tinkering with some settings. Its very bright and the colors pop, along with hdr being incredible! There were times I forgot I was watching a mini led due to blooming not being much of an issue. I guess you should expect decent quality in 2025 but what really shined for me was the gaming. I’ve had led in the past and the only tvs that work really well for me is oled , reason being it’s buttery smooth and once you try it, it ruins any other tv experience! But , this tcl even with mini led tech has very clear fast motion and didn’t leave me feeling like i was missing out. I’m stunned for the price and you really won’t be disappointed if budget is a concern and you don’t want to worry about burn in.

Solid tv for the money. The good: TV is very bright and vibrant, solid on board suite of Google based apps, accommodates “downloader” so you can install 3rd party apps. The bad poor motion smoothing and glare in bright areas. Good TV for a bedroom or den not a solid home theater TV.

I ended up getting this set to replace a broken TV. Considering I got the TV on sale for under $800, I must say the quality is superb for the price. Accurate color saturation and brightness. Great picture quality. Perfect for video games with HDMI 2.0 ports for your modern consoles or devices. HDR and 4k resolution with 120FPS. The only downside to this TV and many others is the sound optimization which is lacking to say the least. Overall, very satisfied with this purchase.

Vivid colors and Super bright whites make for an excellent picture and deep blacks…. If anything its too bright for most use cases. Works great as a PC / gaming monitor, but not without its faults: (1) light sensor adjusts too quickly, not stable thus need to manually switch modes from day to night or its ridiculously bright. (2) does not auto switch to current input which is annoying when using two devices (3) motion processing / viewing angles are not great (4) poor reflection coating, relies on the brightness to compensate.
For the low price its good, but not at the level of mainstream brands. TBH I’d spend a bit more on a lower tier OLED for movies/gaming as processing is much better on varied content, but for pc productivity this is a great value option.

WAIT FOR THE FIRMWARE UPDATES

I thought it was going to be better. With all the improvements TCL claimed to have made with the Halo/blooming controls, dimming improvements, brightness....it's a real downgrade in most ways. The good: better viewing angle, better brightness, better sound, more accurate colors. The negatives.....the rest of them. Blooming is worse, motion is worse, the image is flat because the processing prioritizes brightness instead of making the things that should be bright brighter, and the areas that should be dark are MUCH too bright. This makes the image look absolutely blown out and washed out. The processing looks like they took the chip out of an S4 and put it in the QM7. This set has the goods to be a GREAT television, but wait until the firmware updates come out to buy. It is exceptionally bright, and it looks decent, just not a thousand dollars decent YET.

Using as a monitor for my home office and it works great. Reflections can get a little annoying for anything dark, but the brightness otherwise defeats normal reflections in the day. Plenty bright for my use, be that office work, gaming or photo editing. Input lag and response time is great and I don't notice it at all. Speakers are average, though that could be in part due to the fact that I normally use Klipsch Fives as my office speakers

this replaced an oled c1 series that lasted me only 2 years because of burnt screen, no more oled screen for me.. this Qm7K has beautiful picture and very close to oled quality. but its brighter than oled screen then i can always adjust and make a perfect picture quality on my liking. the sound is by bang & olufsen which is high quality sound, even on a 40% sound level i love the sound quality, the bass is superved, the highs and mids are perfect combination after i set my equalizer setting. the remote control is simple but functional especially the lighting when dark very useful inthe dark..

Hard to beat on sale. Blacks are great, brightness is fantastic. Setting up with homekit is useless and errors out which is a known issue across many of TCL's models which has not been fixed for years apparently. The motion clarity is not great but can be turned off. Overall it has some quirks but for the price it is what it is.

I just got this TV, and wow, I'm completely blown away! The picture quality is absolutely stunning – the colors are so vibrant and the details are incredibly sharp. It feels like you're right there in the action. Setup was a breeze, and the smart features are super easy to navigate. I was watching my favorite movie within minutes of unboxing it. If you're on the fence, just go for it. This TV is a total game-changer and worth every penny!

Beautiful TV that hits way above its weight

Absolutely stunning and beautiful TV. It definitely had a huge 'wow' factor for me when I haven't had that from many other displays. It is tuned for my visual preferences. I kept finding myself staring at it in the showroom floor at my local Best Buy. The only other one that caught my eye in the same way was the S95F which is saying something given the gigantic price difference.
BRIGHTNESS: My god. I had to turn it down sometimes, but it's bright and it's amazing.
Unfortunately, I believe I had a defective unit when it came to some -insane- blooming. I contacted TCL and they agreed it was probably a per unit issue.
Side note: Their customer service is so friendly, happy to answer questions, seem tentative, and makes me really consider sticking with them for my display needs.
I returned it, and find myself missing and thinking of this TV often. I am now waiting on a new 65" of this. I was debating on going with last year's QM851G but decided to go with the new tech available on this.
I am mainly using these for gaming, and it's not often I am watching/playing things with dark scenes with bright items on the foreground.
Overall, so impressed and happy with the value presented from this TV and other TCL TVs I have had. I still have a Q5 Series QLED from a few years ago that is still gorgeous. This is like taking everything good about that TV and multiplying it to levels I didn't think I wanted or needed.
Compared to an LG B4 I got after this, I still find myself preferring the highlights and brightness of this TV overall. I also believe future firmware updates and as more people learn about the TV will fix itself over time.
If you're questioning whether to get this or the QM851G, can't go wrong with either. Make a budget decision if it comes down to $$.
I kept hearing the praises about OLED, but for the budget, and not having to "babysit" this TV...I feel like you honestly can't ask for more. You have a TV that punches far beyond its weight and that speaks a lot for the average user.
TCL has closed the boundaries each entry when it comes to OLED-like quality and the distance between them and what was possible on a regular LED TV.
Can't say enough nice things about this TV. I'm just so disappointed I loved everything about the TV except for the blooming/bleeding/halo effect that seemed to be plaguing my specific system. Other reviewers didn't seem to have this isolated issue.

Old TV died right before Black Friday 2025, so I read some reviews and picked up this one. Have been very happy with it so far. As with any new TV, it take some time to learn the menus, and adjust the settings to personal taste. The menu navigation could be a bit better (there are menus within menus within menus), but once I had my settings in place, I have not had to make changes. , and the picture quality has remained outstanding over the past two months. Would highly recommend.

I was initially blown away by the brightness and sound quality from this tv. The gaming was also great with a high refresh rate and decent input lag. However, I quickly noticed how poor the upscaling was for even 1080p content. 4K content looked amazing, but anything below looked a little blurry and grainy. The motion handling was also a little bad for sports and panning shots.
