Great TV with mat screen for bright rooms

Overall this TV knocks it out of the park. Purchased this sight unseen due to it being so new. Online reviews gave me all the insight I needed. Best aspect is the mat screen. It cannot be understated how effectively this reduces reflective light. This is great for bright rooms. My living room has 10’ windows all around and this feature alone made this set far better than a brighter set. The second is the brightness doesn’t have to be eye scorching, to get a great picture. Ours is set lower and the auto settings allows it to slowly adjust throughout the day, so at night, you don’t suffer from eye fatigue.
Colors seem slightly off so I turned off Dynamic color, which seemed to correct the issues. Local dimming is the way to go, getting the best that micro-LED can offer without the expense of OLED. Off axis is really good as well, due to newly designed LED lenses.
Sound is good- if you adjust it, you can hear details and vocals but I’d suggest a sound bar. We paired ours with the Klipsch Core 210 and aren’t disappointed.
Remote is very easy to operate and has background lit buttons, for easier navigation in the dark.
Packaging is really well done. Only wish manufacturers would make it easier to attack the wall mount brackets, while still suspended in the styrofoam base. When unpacking, make sure to find and remove the metal feet up top, to avoid them falling and potentially damaging your TV or floor. They look very sturdy and have two mount points (wide and narrow). They come with mounting hardware as well. We didn’t use them and opted for a wall mount. Set weighs around 73 pounds, so make sure you have a helper.
Hope this helps some of you. We purchased this during Memorial Day weekend and paid $1199, which was cheaper than a lot of older versions for sale. You can’t go wrong with this TV. My cats are mesmerized by it.

The price to performance and specs is truly unmatched. I could not have asked for it to look much better for a 1,000 bucks getting 85" with local dimming, 4k QD mini LED technology with gaming mode and 144hz and free sync and ALLM (AUTO LOW latency mode) and anti glare. that also sounds good?....it's awesome you won't be disappointed.

85” model is huge. Replaced a Vizio 70” and this dwarfs it. Very clear picture—amazing colors. Tv is very bright with the screen being a matte black. Helps with glare from the sun—which I have. Very pleased.
Speakers aren’t bad—I use external w/subwoofer tho

A solid choice for size, picture quality, & value

We don’t have any regrets with this TCL TV. The size works well for our space and feels immersive without being excessive. The matte screen finish is especially useful and does a great job reducing glare in our bright living room.
We chose this Mini-LED over an OLED because it handles bright rooms better, and in our situation it also made more sense from a pricing standpoint. For an 86-inch TV, it delivers strong picture quality without feeling like a compromise. The image looks sharp, colors are vibrant, contrast is good, and the TV gets bright without looking washed out.
The interface is responsive and easy to navigate. Sound quality exceeded our expectations and has been enough that we haven’t felt an immediate need to add a soundbar.
The remote is well designed. It feels sturdy while still being compact, and it’s more reliable than remotes we’ve used with higher priced TVs. The app-based remote also works well and is fast and responsive.
We had seen some mixed opinions about TCL beforehand, so we opted for a 5-year warranty for peace of mind. So far, everything has been working as expected.
Friends and family who have seen the TV in person are often surprised by how good it looks, and we’ve been asked more than once what model it is.
This is a very large and heavy TV. We originally paid for delivery and professional installation, but with how Best Buy handled the delivery and install process, we ended up having to pick it up ourselves. It barely fit in a Tundra truck bed. Professional installation was still helpful given the size, though the coordination required more follow-up than expected. None of this reflects on the TV itself, but it’s something you may want to keep in mind if adding these extra services at checkout.
We’ve run into a few minor issues specifically with YouTube Kids, but nothing that points to a problem with the TV itself.
Overall, this was a solid choice for a large TV in a bright room, especially considering the size and price.

Unbelievably clear vibrant picture. The matte black screen allows me to have nature light and watch TV. I have a large picture window and was never able to have curtains open due to the glare on the screen, not anymore. Absolutely loving this TV.

I’m really impressed with this THC TV! The picture quality is crystal clear, colors are sharp, vibrant, and the resolution makes every show and movie look amazing. Whether I’m streaming, gaming, or watching live TV, the image stays smooth and detailed with no lag or blur.
For the price, it’s definitely worth it. You’re getting top-tier quality without having to spend a fortune. The sound is solid too, and the overall build feels premium. If you’re looking for a TV that delivers great clarity, strong performance, and true value for the money, this one is 100% worth buying. 5 stars across the board!!!

I got the 85". Dont fall in to the "which TV is better" rabbit hole. This one has great picture day and night. You wont regret it. Its not a cheap TV. Dont get me wrong, youre not gonna feel like you can walk into the screen like the $6,000 TVs but it will still make you VERY happy.

Huge upgrade after my Vizio died

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
My old Vizio stopped working, so I went to Best Buy and picked up a TCL 85 inch television. It turned an annoying situation into a big upgrade for my living room.
The picture quality on this TV is excellent. Colors look bright and accurate, blacks are deep, and the large screen makes movies, sports, and games feel very immersive. Even regular TV shows look better than they did on my old set.
Setup was simple. The built in smart features are easy to use and I had my streaming apps installed and running in just a few minutes. The menus are clear and responsive, and I had no trouble getting everything configured.
For sound I am using a 7.2 receiver, and that combination makes this TV feel like a real home theater. The TV works well with my receiver and the overall experience is great for both movies and gaming.
Overall I am very happy with this TCL 85 inch. It is a huge step up from my old Vizio and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a large screen TV with a great picture and strong overall value.

When the box came I actually got anxiety about how big this TV is. That anxiety quickly went away when I started watching. BE CAREFUL SETTING IT UP! Note that there are plastic knock-outs you have to remove to use the narrow stand. Surprising oomph from the built-in speakers. Matte screen is awesome, my room gets a lot of light but I've had no glare issues.

Purchased a new house and ordered a 77" OLED for our upstairs room. Despite the TVs amazing picture quality at night, it was simply unwatchable during the day.
Purchased a 98" QM6K that fixed our issue downstairs and decided to go with another 85 inch to replace the OLED.
This solved our issue, and I would highly recommend if you have an especially bright house with a lot of natural light.
Picture quality is still great, plenty of brightness, gaming features are excellent and it instantly recognized my PC for 4k 144hz gaming.
Highly recommend.
Pictures below include the 77 OLED so you can see how the matte display works vs the high gloss.

No joke, best tv I have ever had. It has gamer selection that you can add a dot in the center of the screen and you can select to have gaming hz displayed. Cyberpunk, Bannerlord 2, and YouTube looks amazing. I am really happy I listened to your employee about the tv being the best for gameing on xbox vs the black friday deals. I would buy again. The tv picture looks way better than the photos I loaded up in this review and Bannerlord doesn't need the center dot like Kingdom Deliverance 2, so it's not in photos.
