This 98-inch TCL QLED Google TV stands out as a huge screen for the money, with 4K, 144Hz, Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos, and free shipping plus free wall mounting through Angi. The model number appears to match TCL's 98Q651G, and the Walmart version is described as close to Best Buy's 98Q55K, though the Walmart set is said to use Google Chromecast only and Wi-Fi 5. The main cautions are that it is not the mini-LED 2025 version, the smart platform can feel bloated without a custom launcher, and the included install service has some scheduling and fit concerns. It looks like a strong value if the size and mounting logistics work for your space.

Common Questions (6)

  • The deal includes free large-TV installation/mounting through Angi, but the mount itself must be purchased separately. The service is for eligible 75-inch-and-up TVs and can be booked after purchase.

  • It appears to be the same TCL 98-inch class model family with nearly identical core specs, but the Walmart version is listed as 98Q51CG/98Q651G and the Best Buy version as 98Q55K. One noted difference is that the Best Buy version includes AirPlay 2, while the Walmart listing only shows Google Chromecast.

  • Yes. You can use it as a basic HDMI display with no internet connection required, so it can stay offline and boot straight to HDMI for a media PC.

  • The listed VESA pattern is 600x500, but some buyers found conflicting reports claiming 900x600. If you're buying a mount, verify compatibility carefully before ordering.

  • It is large enough that you should measure viewing distance and check entryways, corners, and mounting height before buying. At this size, it may need to be mounted low for comfortable viewing and can be awkward to move into apartments or tight spaces.

  • No. The 98-inch model in this deal is the 2024 QLED version, not mini-LED; the 2025 version is the one described as having mini-LED and Wi‑Fi 7.

This is supposedly not pure 144hz but a combo of 144hz and 120hz. Do your research.

It's really difficult to find a full-motion wall mount for this TV that fits the advertised VESA mounting pattern of 600x500, especially one with any reviews. One of the first reviews for this TV on Walmart states it needs a mounting pattern of 900x600, which is different than the listed specifications?? Has anyone found any good mounts for this TV (huge plus if you've already mounted it and can confirm it fits and is secure)? Thanks in advance!

Not the best, not the worst. The mount is 600x500. I bought the vivo mount on Amazon, that was the cheapest full motion mount I could find, wanted Monoprice but I'm not paying $40 shipping.

98" in TV I didn't even realize they made them this big. That's got to be a huge TV. I think our Samson is a 75 And it is very big.
I did not read all the posts here but for the ones I did read about the Black Friday deals, I agree that I have not seen any real discounts lately, seems to be about the price before the tarrifs. And Black Friday is all month long. No need to go to the store.

As soon as those come down to $2k I'll be all over it. At this point the only thing holding up prices is the logistical side. My Walmart actually had the 98's at my store for $670 which is a steal. Surprisingly I don't think the 98 is that much more noticeable than my 75, I know technically it is, but it wasn't the same wow as going from a 55 to 75.

This will work https://www.mount-it.com/products...unt-mi-394
I had this installed today with the Angi folks Walmart arranged.

The lead installer was very nice/good, and the assistant was an a@#@hole, just rude, terrible attitude, right off the bat he wanted to be done in 15 minute and leave.

In terms of the mount, it's holding the tv well, the side to side tilt needs to be adjusted each time you need to pull it out - i just powered on TV - haven't tested it or anything but it is quite large.

have it for outdoor, will need to find a water/weather proof cover.
