    If you want to get as close to OLED as possible, this is the TV to get. I purchased the 98'' TCL QM8K and I am just elated at the picture quality. Dark blacks, true whites, bright colors, this TV has it all. I highly recommend this TV. Good job TCL!

    Best quality/size TV bang for the buck! Needs some tweaking of picture settings to go from good to great! OLED has slightly better picture, but much more expensive.

    I'm sure that there are other panels and OLEDs that exceed this TV slightly in a few areas but if you need a very large screen and this is as good as it gets unless you want to spend 4x the price. Coming from a mid line Samsung 82 inch the difference here is mind blowing. Speakers are whatever but if you're buying a screen this size you already have a sound system or else you should.

    I love this tv. The size is perfect for the massive wall in my living room, It is replacing a 65" LG OLED that I love even more. This TCL produces a great picture and better than average sound, but it cannot beat an OLED with its "inky" black levels and legendary contrast. To quantify, I would say that this TCL will get you 85 to 90% of what an OLED is capable of, but I can't afford a $25,000 LG OLED. If you are going for size, this is the one to get.

    I have had LG OLED Tv's for the past 10 years or so. Was not sure about the TCL. Store Manager talked me into it. 6 months later and I love the TV. Have had zero problems. The blacks are not quite as good as my 77" OLED but the size and overall movie experiance is just better. Got it on sale for a really good price. Had Bestbuy do the install and the guys they sent were great. I do not use built in software, as I use a shield pro for all of that. So not sure how that part works.

    I wanted to upgrade my older 75” display to a more immersive and larger display for my basement movie area. The QM8K with the latest v313 firmware in Filmmaker mode delivers. HDR pops, this thing is really bright, I may even need to crank it down a notch it’s so bright. When Gaming it automatically switches over to game mode, very smooth. No issues. Overall I’m satisfied, would recommend. Great value.

    TWe purchased the 98" and I have to say it is a spectacular tv. Makes your living room look like a movie theater! Crisp, clear and bright picture with easy set up and easy programming. We paired it with the TCL home theater sound system, and it is out of this world fabulous. We just love it as you can tell.

    Probably the best non-OLED picture I have personally seen! Excellent picture quality even in Game Mode! I'm blown away every time I turn it on... it's really that good. Of course, being a 98" TV, it'll take a few people to install, but other than that, I can't recommend this TV more highly.

    98” and it looks really good even on regularly broadcasted television and even better on 4k shows! The google tv is good too - we had some issues at first but make sure the tv software updates and it works fine. Also the sound is really good, has bass you don’t even need a sound system if you don’t want one. Overall very happy!

    I've had this TV now for about 3 weeks and have watched maybe 20 hours on it by now. I am very happy with the purchase. The visual quality depends highly on the source. The 4K/Dolby Vision/HDR 10 programming from steaming Netflix/Disney+ has been amazing. Watching older shows/movies that have not been remastered isn't great but it's also not bad. This is a complaint that I've read in reviews before I purchased this TV so I knew what I was getting into. With this TV you'll want to get the top tier streaming quality in order to really appreciate it. I was worried that 98" was going to be too big but I feel that its perfect for my set-up which is a home theatre in the basement sitting on a sofa about 16 feet from the screen.

    This tv is excellent and the sound it comes with is surprisingly good. My brother, who is exclusively OLED, said he he really couldn't tell it is QLED and the color looked great.
