Customer Ratings & Reviews

I love the picture quality of this TV. Colors are bright, black do not look washed out. The only draw back were the multiple issues we had using our LG SL7Y sound bar with this TCL TV. Eventually we had to remove the sound bar and just go with TV sound, which downgraded the experience during movies.

When on sale, for half the price of an OLED, you get 90+% the performance of an OLED in black levels while blowing it out of the water in terms of brightness. Amazing TV

I am beyond happy with the overwhelmingly amazing performance of this TV. I have had multiple SONY and SAMSUNG tv’s that cost way more money than this QM8 and it blows them out of the water!!!! If you are reading this review stop looking around and purchase this TV immediately! You will not be disappointed in any aspect! I have a living room that has a full wall of windows where light comes pouring in and still it doesnt have any issues with the glare . The colors BLAST out of this TV like nothing ive ever seen before on any other set up. Realistically with its high performance this should be way more expensive but the fact that it isnt makes this purchase a no brainer. TCL delievered 5 stars across the board with this new QM851G and I highly recommend it!

Super bright TV. Looks awesome mounted on my wall. HDR content looks amazing. TCL is the value king. Got it on sale during the holidays

The QM8 851G is an awesome upgrade from the 2023 model. The picture quality is amazing once you adjust the settings in the picture menu..Very Bright and excellent contrast. The clarity of this TV is amazing!You will enjoy it if you purchase it!!

Purchased 65in TCL QM8. Got it home...great tv and the wife was so impressed with the picture she told me we should get the same tv only bigger. After I came out of shock from her statement ..i took full advantage of the moment and returned it for a 75in. The return and exchange was as smooth as butter since i was within the 15 day window of their return policy. Thank you Best Buy and to my wonderful wife for making my March Madness even better!

Love the TV. Great picture, easy setup. Delivered as promised and with care. I didn’t purchase the setup and really didn’t need it - I’m 82 years young was able to handle it myself.

Salesman Rich was very knowledgeable and very helpful as we looked at Roku vs TCL TVs. We decided to go with TCL, and without any sales push from Rich, we upgraded ourselves to this QM8 series. We also self-upgraded to the best matching TCL soundbar, and Rich found that we saved an additional $100 by purchasing the two items together. The TV picture is amazingly bright, which makes the colors pop off the screen. The base sound system is very good, but adding the soundbar and subwoofer to the TV's speakers (as opposed to replacing them) makes the sound even better.

I loved the picture and im picky . Unfortunately it got delivered with a small defect. Looked like a few dea pixels. Best buy made it a very smooth transaction with the pick up. I decided to go ahead and pay the difference and get the same tv but in a 75 inch instead. Glad i did! Love it!

Great picture quality!! Super bright for bright rooms

This tv has a very good picture and good sound. My problem is the it has frozen twice in the 2 months that I have owned it. When it freezes it won’t respond to any commands from the remote. When it freezes you have to unplug the tv wait about 10 seconds then plug it in again. TCL customer service wants to know what input you were using when it froze, what app you were using if iteas an onboard app. The streaming service and the program that you were watching. Sounds to me that they don’t want to take responsibility for their product messing up. If I had it to do over again I would have spent a little more and got a Samsung.

Very happy with this TV. The picture is bright with great contrast. Very good value. Bought it primarily to watch sports.

Fantastic TV. The picture is amazing especially at the price I paid. The only complaint is the antiglare coating doesn't work as well as hoped.

Superb picture performance -- clarity, resolution, brightness, deep blacks, rich colors. Also, excellent sound processing. My 5.1 sound bar sounds far better than six year old Sony that the TCL replaced. 65" QM8 was purchased on sale for $899 - exceptional performance for the price.

The HYPE is REAL! I had seen this tv on rtings and videos on digital trends. Well I'm happy to say it is really that amazing. I was really worried I wasn't going to like it but it far exceeded my expectations. Definitely the best bang for your buck. I've compared it to other name brand tvs like Sony and Samsung and you can hardly tell the difference. The stand and build quality stands out the most. TCL is really trying to make a name for themselves and it shows. Give it a try and you will not regret it!

Wanted a replacement tv for our vacation home, but did not want to pay for OLED. Found out about TCL 65 in tv for a great price and pulled the trigger. Couldn't be more happy with picture and tv in general. It's a Smart Google tv with lots of features. Picture is not quite OLED, but outstanding for the price point.

Overall good value for price. Very good picture even on old movies. The 3.0 tuner which many TV’s don’t have captures great over the air programs & sports. Sound is ok but upgraded to Bose soundbar & subwoofer which more than satisfies the experience in a medium room. Why spend double $$ for a tv a regular person is not going to notice difference. Google tv works great as well as Roku & Apple TV which switch easily.

Really good tv best bang for your buck. It gets extremely bright. Great for gaming and Movies

I had high hopes for this TV after research and many tv reviewers giving this such high praise, but unfortunately I was very disappointed in the picture quality. For having so much brightness it was very dull and lifeless. The video settings also don’t help because if its dolby vision content you’re stuck with using those settings which often dull the tv even more. Motion and upscaleing were the worst I’ve seen in a higher end tv. (I know this is a tcl but this is one of their highest end units) Even Waves on an ocean scene skipped across the screen. Lastly the dirty screen effect was more than just that I could see visible lines up and across the screen that were just permanently there. If was extremely noticeable in panning scenes. This tvs saving grace was its on board sound. I hope other tv makers learn from this because the built in onkyo surround system with atmos was impressive. It was just as good as having a really good soundbar. Its possible I got a bad panel but I didnt want to take the chance of getting another one so this was returned.

I finally stepped out of the Stone Ages when LCD televisions were a thing. Wow! What a difference this television makes! I've even upgraded all of my streaming services to get the full benefits of 4K. I'm so happy with my purchase.
