Basically, this is a Costco-exclusive upgrade of the Q681, which is why it's hard to find reviews of this exact model. The main differences are the upgraded Onkyo 2.1 speakers, the FireTV OS and a 3 year warrantee. It's a huge upgrade from the q651, with the local dimming and brighter picture.

A lot of people here bought these a few months ago when they were clearancing them out of the stores for $400. Most people seemed very happy with them. I got one, and the picture is really great. Very bright and the colors really pop. I mean, it's not as great as some of the $1000-2000 models, but it's $500. (Though it was originally $1300.) I'm very happy with my purchase.

I don't think you'll find a better TV in this price range at this time, unless you find some truly spectacular clearance deal. Probably the next level up you'll find at 75" is the Hisense U7N for $900 (also at Costco.)

I don't imagine that these will last too long, since they're not selling these in the stores any more. This is probably a clearance price.

Note: for anyone trying to put this on a smaller table/stand, the legs can attach in either direction (which isn't mentioned anywhere in the documentation!) When they're facing inwards, it can fit on some smaller stands.

To set your TCL TV to start up on the last input you used, navigate to Settings > System > Power (or Power and Energy on some models) and select "Last Used Input" as your power on behavior; this will automatically turn on your TV to the last input source you were using when you turned it off.
Key points to remember:
Access settings: Press the "Home" button on your remote, then navigate to "Settings".
Find Power settings: Within the settings menu, go to "System" and then select "Power" (or "Power and Energy").
Choose "Last Used Input": Under "Power On Behavior" or a similar option, select "Last Used Input".

This is going to be a better TV vs the 5 series. This set is QLED, has upgraded sound and local dimming. it's in the Q6 series, but this is at the upper end (where it includes the sound and dimming). If this had 120hz refresh rate, it would basically be the Q7.

The reviews say that TV model has terrible contrast which means blacks are gray most of the time. Also that model does not have full array local dimming and is direct-lit.

The Hisense QD7 has an IPS panel and lacks local dimming, so blacks will look gray on this TV. So, NO, TCL is still the better deal.

if only we could import Chinese cars to the states with regular tariffs, we could buy cars for so much less, just like these TVs.

pic quality of this is odd, i moved from a LG 4K of the same size. 1080P content looks odd. Pics looks washed up.
Even with 4k Content, the skin tones are not natural. faces are red/pink or greys. Tried playing with settings,
cannot get them right. Hopefully someone gets this professionally tuned and shares the settings here.

not sure how it will behave outside, but its a bright TV. I had to decrease the brightness to 65 from 100.
It may be auto adjusting though.

Who even makes Phillips now. I know before they weren't any good. If it doesn't have local dimming then it's differently not better than the TCL.
