7.1 mixed usage review. Appears to be good for gaming:

Mainly rated poorly due due brightness and glare. Wish they would've reviewed the qm6k pro from Costco. Basically removes ¾ of the negatives

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank xlerate

What's the main difference between this and the Costco QM6K Pro? I'm seeing both have mini led and 144hz.

Costco QM6K Pro 65" is also $550 and Qualifies for multi discount.

EDIT:


Gpt Comparison:

Both TVs are essentially identical, delivering the same display, processing, HDR, gaming prowess, sound, and smart features.

The only meaningful difference is the panel finish:

QM6K Pro uses TCL's CrystGlow HVA panel, offering improved anti‑glare performance—ideal for bright or sunlit rooms.

QM6K standard uses a Matte HVA panel, which still handles reflections but not as effectively as the Pro version.

Rtings is actually reviewing that tv right now (q77k model in 75 inch). They have yet to post their results though. That was directly coming from them.

****Sorry I misspoke. I see the model you are talking about. Not the same as I thought.

Why would anyone buy this Chinese spying TV! Truly amazing me that people will pay $200-300 less to be spied on. You do you though.
You can choose not to connect the TV to Wi-Fi and use a steaming box instead.

How would either perform in a room that is NOT brightly lit?

Damn... Do they make the PRO version with a ROKU interface, as opposed to a Google UI?
