$1499 (List Price $1999).

It looks to be a very "bare bones" model - i.e. it only has 2 HDMI ports - although my guess is that this is typical for a brand such as Element.
On the plus side, it's a 144hz Mini-LED QLED set that supports VRR/AMD FreeSync. It has "over 800" Local Dimming zones - not sure if that's above or below the average for a TV of this size.
One notable thing is that the stand is narrow, at only 27". This is what originally caught my attention as it can theoretically fit on my existing TV stand.
The other thing was that the Micro Center e-mail states "
Free Local Delivery on any new TVs 65" or larger starting at $499", but this is not indicated anywhere on the product page or in the cart - so this is something I'd verify with the store if you're looking to purchase.

I couldn't find any reviews or other helpful information online. I am curious to hear how it compares to the Hisense/TCL/etc. sets that are in this general price range.
If it is indeed a Mini-LED QLED set, it seems like a decent deal, at least on paper. It looks like the nearest-priced Mini-LED QLED TV set in this size start at $2200 at other retailers.

The closest competition is the TCL 98Q651G at $1,500 but it's not mini LED and has no local dimming. Same refresh rate though.
Will be interesting to see Rtings review of this Element unit.

Given the narrow stand width and the potential for Free Local delivery, it's tempting to buy one as it'd be "drop-in" replacement for me, so to speak.
At least Micro Center is transparent about it and puts it right in the Product Name.

(Coming from a 65" Sceptre Non-Smart TV, which has been fine.)

With the tarrifs it may cost double the cost today so plan that as well
Tariffs? LOL it's going to be permanent pauses and re-pauses. What a joke.

How do you like the TCL 98QM751G?
I was between that for the size or the 83 inch LG B4 OLED.
Please don't buy Element products. Bought a monitor from them. It's only last 4 months and now it gives me blank screen when I turn on. I cannot return it because it's over 90 days return policy. Spent a lot of time through many calls to their customer service. They tried to ignored me by chasing around like "I'm getting an update for your case", "Someone will give you a call back at the end of the day or in 24 hours". Never got a call back. They keep doing that until I gave up. Like just thrown away a couple of hundred bucks. This company is scamming people.

Love it so far. There are some firmware updates floating around that apparently adds features from the 2025 QM7K models that work on the QM7. Picture quality improvements included as well. I haven't tried it yet but most say it's well worth it.
