I just wanted to comment on this deal. I've been an avid OLED proponent since 2017. I've owned multiple LG OLED TVs since then until my C8 started to get burn-in from a lot of gaming. It's been 8 years of great service from that C8, so I decided to go with the TCL QM8K, and bought the 75" last month. I'm shocked at how good the TCL is. The specular highlights is unmatched. Gaming input lag is almost as good as the LG OLEDs to a point that I can see or feel the difference. Grayscale uniformity is a 10/10, something that I have never seen in any of my LG OLEDs. The Bang & Olufsen's speaker system, with the dual base setup, is as good as it gets for game room I'm using. I had never owned a LED TV before, so I was being overly cautious buying the 75". My only regret is that I should have purchase the 98" instead. I wish Best Buy would let buyers return or exchange their TV within a 90-day window instead of just the 15-day one.

Is this the one that is highly rated ?
It seems to be a great deal as the previous sales price was about 1k more on sale ?

8 to 12 feet is the recommended distance, but 8 to 10 is optimal.

This one for sure, unless you have some brand loyalty to Samsung. This is TCL's flagship model for 2025.

The QN80F is Samsung's mid range model.
