Customers are saying
Customers are pleased with the stunning picture quality and excellent brightness, especially when viewing HDR content. The large screen size enhances the overall movie experience for many users. However, some customers have noted that the sound quality could be improved and have observed some minor light diffusion in dark scenes. While a few feel OLED offers a slightly better picture, the positive aspects of this TV appear to outweigh the negatives for most.

Quality TV for a bright room
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got this for gaming on PS5. Compared it to Bravia 5 (had employee discount on this so was the same price as tcl) but this was the winner for a bright room.

Great Value For 98"
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Decided to go outside of my comfort zone for TVs which is usually a Samsung or Sony. I wanted to upgrade to a 100in TV but did not want to pay an arm and a leg. I went back and forth between this TCL 98QM8K and Hisense U8QG. Took advahtage of the Labor Day Sale and picked up this bad boy for less than $3K! Tons of premium specs for an awesome value! The "borderless" screen is fantastic. The clarity on 4K stuff is magnificent. Warning: Out of the box, the colors are a bit off, in my opinion, and the judder and motion blur watching sports needs work. Once I hook this up with some updated HDMI cables to my new Onkyo NR-7100, and playing with my settings, I'll update this review to share whether that improves some of the motion issues.

Good bang for the buck
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This tv offers a lot of bang for the buck and is about 85% of a OLED tv. Where it lacks is poor video processing with SD and lower quality formats. The google UI isn't the greatest and not so intuitive.

Great choicr
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Enix and Arash were instrumental in my purchases. Enix from TCL was very knowledgeable in my acquisition of the TCL 98 inch QM8K. The TV is very impressive and performs very well.

Best 98” TV at this price point, no question.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.By far the best (and biggest) TV I have ever owned. Best Buy delivered and setup free of charge. They even price matched for an additional $200 off. Couldn’t have been better!

Clear Bright Picture on the TCL Q98K
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The TCL Q98K has thus far works and looks excellent. It may be partly due to the Denon receiver, which may help with a clear picture. It is easy to navigate, and the backlit remote provides significant assistance.

Great TV
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We thought about a new 83” OLED but we really wanted a bigger TV than our current 85”. We chose the 98” TCL after looking at both the LG and the TCL. Both looked very similar. So glad we went with TCL and got a bigger screen for Les money. Win/win.

98 inch QM8K
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s a great TV. Now you can pay more for another brand (Samsung Sony or LG) but you won’t get a better TV……especially when you are viewing in 4K. And the price on this thing, for what you’re getting is unbelievable.

Very close to OLED
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I also own an LG OLED TV, in compare to TCL QM8K looks fantastic. I genuinely love it. I never feel like I’m not watching an OLED TV. However, it requires minor color calibration out of the box.

Good value for the money
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The picture is very good, similar to the 2024 model. I was hoping for more improvements with the new 2025 version, specifically with motion and upscaling. I upgraded moving from the 85” QM8 to the 98” QM8k which was a huge change in size. Overall I’m pleased with the purchase and the sale price during Prime days. The free installation offered by Best Buy ended up being a disappointment due to quality of the work and skill of the contractor. Best Buy really needs to step up their game when it comes to installation.

Amazing picture quality!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Picture quality is amazing. The large screen is immersive. I own some OLEDs and the larger screen overall is better than the very slight difference in picture quality. Highly recommend as best value for price on a high end TV.

My 98QM8K Thoughts
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent 4k tv with the caveat that 1080i and 720p upscaling of tv content is lacking compared to the likes of Sony, Samsung and LG. I hope TCL will continue to improve this in the near future.
