The TCL QM8K comes across as a bright-room mini LED TV that delivers strong black levels, vivid HDR, and better glare handling than competing sets in the same price range. It is especially appealing for large-screen viewing, with the 85 inch and 98 inch sizes drawing praise for movie nights and for replacing projectors in regular use. The main caveat is value, since the price has hovered around these levels for months and past sales were notably lower. Upscaling and image processing also trail Sony and LG on standard TV, and bright-room blacks can turn gray in dark scenes.
Common Questions (4)
The price has repeatedly bounced around a baseline of about $3,000, with occasional spikes higher and drops back down. For the 85-inch model, recent lows mentioned were about $2,000 in February and $1,800 on Black Friday, so this deal is not the historical low.
For movies and immersion, a projector setup can feel more cinematic and can beat a TV when the screen is much larger. For everyday viewing and better overall picture quality, the QM8K is the stronger choice, especially in bright rooms.
Yes. The QM8K is described as performing much better in bright rooms, with stronger brightness and glare handling than OLEDs. In dark rooms, OLED still has the edge for black levels, while the QM8K can look grey in strong ambient light.
The 98-inch QM8K can look soft with standard TV and lower-bitrate content because its upscaling and image processing are weaker than Sony and LG. It is still strong for 4K HDR, but on a near-100-inch screen the difference becomes noticeable from normal seating distances.

Most people who own an 83" OLED wouldn't trade it for a projector as their primary display, because it delivers a more reliable, higher-quality image in everyday use. A projector can feel more cinematic in the right setup, but that's not the same as "blowing it away."

65" OLEd's under $1000
65" QLEDs ( of good quality) for $800
TCL and Hisense have really changed the game
depending on what this new RGB LED looks like the standards QLED's will even drop lower than this year
