Community Reviews

The 98 inch TCL QM7K stands out as a huge, bright mini LED TV with deep blacks, strong local dimming, and picture quality that gets compared favorably to OLED. It also draws praise for gaming features and Dolby Vision, and the size makes it a dramatic basement or home theater upgrade. The main cautions are its weight and awkward mounting needs, since the VESA holes sit low and a sturdy large mount or professional installation matters. A buzzing issue has also been reported on some 2024 and 2025 units, though other sets have no such problem.

Common Questions (5)

  • Yes. Best Buy price-matched NFM's lower cart price for the 98" QM7K, including cases where the nearest NFM was hundreds of miles away. The lower price often had to be shown in cart, and some reps required persistence or a different agent.

  • A heavy-duty mount with a large VESA range is needed. Specific mounts mentioned as working include the Sanus 65-140" and Sanus VXT7B2, and a VIVO 60-120" mount rated for 900x600mm VESA; the TV's mounting holes sit low on the back, so clearance and stud placement matter.

  • Yes. The deal has been paired with free delivery and installation, and some orders also included free mounting on concrete or a wall mount install. For very large TVs, buyers noted the box is huge and heavy, so bundled installation is especially useful.

  • The QM7K is already very bright for most rooms, and the QM8K's main advantage is even higher brightness. Several owners said the QM7K is bright enough in dark rooms and that its local dimming and contrast make it look close to OLED.

  • A buzzing issue has been reported on some 2024 and 2025 units, but multiple owners reported no buzzing or other problems on their 98" QM7K. That makes it worth checking your unit after delivery, especially if you notice coil-whine-like noise.

Ugh, so tempting. I was hoping for sub $3k qm8k 98" but this is a steal.
98" QM8K is available for sub $3K; NFM has it for $3k and if you add it to cart it will go down to $2800.

I ordered the 98" TCL QM8K last week for delivery and installation at $2,999 last week which puts the price difference at $1000 from the QM7K. I didn't mind a $500 difference, but I don't think there is $1000 worth of difference. What are the chances of the QM8K getting a similar $500 reduction in price so I can price match? Should I swap to the QM7K for the cost savings?
98" QM8K at Nebraska Furniture Mart is $2800 (add to the cart).

Yessir. I don't have a NFM near me in WI and I doubt BB will price match due to NFM not having a presence here. Hoping to see it drop some before BF though. Even at $1k difference I'm still finding it hard to want the qm8k over a $2k qm7k. 50% price hike is difficult to justify.

Price Matched the QM7K at Best Buy with NFM. Nearest NFM is over 400 miles from me and Best Buy still matched.

I placed an order in BestBuy but its warranty kind of concerned me. I used BestBuy credit card so it does not have extended warranty. Now the TV only carries one year manufacture warranty. And I do not want to spend another $500 for geek squad protection plan. Any ideas? Or maybe I should go to Costco?

How are you price matching it? Via Chat or calling in? I did it via chat twice and called once and all have said they are unable to because it hasn't been delivered it.

I'm using the Citi Double Cash back card that extends the warranty to 2 years. I'm considering adding another 3rd party warranty but with the Citi Double Cash back card, I'll have 3 years on it.

Good points. Costco lets you buy their AllState TV protection for $100 for 3 yr additional protection; for Costco members, will that be an option? Not sure if their Costco Citi card provides any additional protection.

I did it via chat, at first rep said no, i told him my friend got it matched earlier today and the rep came back after "researching" and matched it. He did ask zip code prior to ordering so was well aware i do not live near a NFM. Rep sent me the link to the cart and i paid the matched price using the link provided.

NFM has it for $1839 once you put it in the cart
I tried with BB but they said they do not PM with NFM. Please advise.

Update: Took more persistence, but they did it. BB does PM with NFM. Agent was incorrect. I had to show them.

You may want to chat online with their representatives. If it does not work, find another rep and try again.
