Why can't I find anything on this TV? Was it just released?

This looks better or the same to the 98Q651G.

Dolby Vision IQ - added
~500 kWh/year vs 600kWh/year - more efficient.
288 VRR vs 240 VRR - does this even matter lol?

Biggest outliner: 4× HDMI 2.0 vs (2× HDMI 2.1 + 2× HDMI 2.0) on the 98Q651G 🥴
I hope that's a mistake.

If you don't get confirmed HDMI 2.1 or 4K120Hz + 12‑bit, you'll still get excellent performance (4K60Hz, 4K up to maybe 120Hz at 10/8‑bit, the QLED panel etc) but maybe not the full "top tier gaming spec" so I wouldn't buy it for gaming, it's a 98" TV for 1K.

For true gaming I would probably get a true dedicated gaming monitor. I don't own this TV "yet" but when it arrives I can tell you better. My wife is going to hate me for this LOL....

Quote from MusicsAllWeGot :
Just took a look at the one in Walmart right now (not the BF TV), it's the identical TV as Best Buy, nothing different.
Picture is the same, measurements are incrementally a little off but same TV different SKU.
Anyone correct me if I'm wrong though.
One difference I noticed was that the Best Buy version has Google Chrome Cast and AirPlay 2. But the one from Walmart only has Google Chrome Cast.

In essence, the Q55K is the newer, 2025 refresh of the entry-level QLED series, offering incremental improvements in picture processing and brightness over the 2024 Q51CG model. Per Google ?

Resisting the urge to buy until someone posts an actual hands-on review.

If it's broken then send it back for warranty. How is that a question?

They are asking if they should get an extended warranty or not.

We still don't know what kind of tuner this TV has?

EDIT: AI says this-

The TCL model 98Q55K TV does not include an ATSC 3.0 tuner. TCL has not implemented ATSC 3.0 tuners in any of their 2023 or 2024 models sold in the US, including large-screen models like the 98Q55K. These TVs only have the older ATSC 1.0 tuners for digital broadcast reception. TCL's first TVs with ATSC 3.0 tuners are from their newer QM8 line, not the Q55K series.
