    MOR- (Middle of the Road) Very fair sound and features, but not for the price point. A $300--$375 is a more realistic and fair price for the sound bar. Not too extreme high quality but still has appeals to those who wants better! Better than basic features. Overall I recommend this product if you want better than basic sound from your speakers on the TV or better than an entry level sound bar. This soundbar is definitely next level especially if you pay close attention to the details in sound when watching a movie. Wait for a sale;)

    I love this sound bar. I've read reviews about the lack of granular controls for individual levels, but I find the controls refreshingly simple. If you want to tweak every aspect, this is not the product for you. If you want amazing sound without being an audiophile, do not hesitate. If you have a TCL Roku TV, even better and easier to set up.

    Best TcL has to offer. I tried the 75h and it was lacking. Personally this is a no brainer if you own a TCL. Paired nicely with the Q7mk 98 inch beats. Samsung may be better but not enough to pay 500 extra… 10 foot ceilings and in an open floor plan and it packs a punch.

    I absolutely love this item. We haven't hooked the surround speakers up yet. But the sound bar and subwooker packs plenty of punch. Paired this with our new 98" TCL TV and the whole tv watching more enjoyable.

    I recently had a movie room with surround sound and it was great. We moved to a new home, and I purchased a TCL 98"TV and this speaker system. It's amazing how much this added to the tv. The sound is great, and I couldn't be happier with this system.

    Great on Paper, Falls Short in Practice

    I really wanted to love the TCL Q85 soundbar. On paper, it checks a lot of boxes, especially for a product priced below the competition with the same feature set. Pros: The soundbar boasts an impressive hardware setup: three front-facing drivers, two side-firing drivers, and two Atmos drivers up top. The included rear surrounds are truly wireless—just plug them into a power outlet—and each features both front- and up-firing drivers. The subwoofer rounds out the setup nicely. One standout feature is the TCL app integration, which includes an auto-calibration function. This tool is designed to tailor the soundbar’s performance to your room's acoustics, and it’s a welcome addition at this price point. Cons: Unfortunately, that’s where the positives end for me. My biggest issue is the lack of manual adjustability. Neither the remote nor the app allows for detailed tuning of the audio to personal preferences, which is a major drawback. The bass also left a lot to be desired. The low frequencies lacked clarity and depth, coming across as muddy. There was a noticeable disconnect between the mids/highs from the soundbar and the lows from the subwoofer, which hurt the overall sound cohesion. To be fair, with all the features packed into this system, some trade-offs are to be expected. But coming from a high-end Samsung/Harman Kardon soundbar (which originally retailed for $1499), I found the Q85 lacking in sound quality. Granted, they’re in entirely different price categories, so my expectations might have been a bit high. This soundbar might work well for someone looking for an affordable, feature-rich setup, but for me, it's not a worthy replacement. I’ll have to pass on this one.
