Really great TV, at a great price
The 5 star reviews have it right. My 65″ is very bright in my sunlit room by day, easy on the eyes at night, great colors, responsive software, natural presentation. I’ve owned a great Panny plasma and a Samsung Qled, and this matches or exceeds them at all their strengths. Sound is pretty good, not great, but natural. Data on TCL reliability is proving to be as good as other big brands, not surprising given their history, scale and manufacturing prowess, so I’m feeling comfortable about that. At the sale price this is hard to criticize,

The Closest Thing I’ve Seen to a Perfect TV (without breaking the bank)
I bought the 75-inch model (2024 model) two months ago. For months, I read professional reviews online, and couldn’t decide among this, the Hisense U8, and (going a step up) the LG C4. I eventually ruled out the C4 because the extra $800 or so for the 77-inch model just wasn’t worth it for whatever minor difference I might actually notice in contrast/blooming in certain scenes when I’m watching a movie. I then ruled out the Hisense because the 75-inch model uses a different panel than the other sizes, with worse contrast (although better off-axis viewing).That left the TCL, which was on my list in the first place for its brightness, fine contrast, and good sound quality. Keep in mind that high brightness does not mean that you’ll just be blinded by light all the time. Rather, certain things are very bright, such as sunsets and headlights, for example. So much so, that it adds almost a 3D aspect to the viewing experience.I find the picture to be stunning, and easy to dial in. I set it to “movie,” and move the color temperature to “warm.” I turn on the motion control, but adjust only the judder reduction, to 1. I turn on the micro contrast to high as well. To me, that’s the most natural and crisp picture for just about everything. It’s not great at upscaling low bitrate or SD content, but that is not a priority for me anyway. I’ve looked for blooming in many different scenes, and only in the most extreme instances of contrast — with a bright light moving in a pitch-black environment — do I see very minor blooming. You have to be looking for blooming like a hawk though to detect any lack of total blackness in the black areas of the screen. The contrast is striking, the colors look natural, and the picture can be as bright as you need it to be.I think the sound is great. Booming, even… and the dialogue is crisp and easy to understand when you set it to “voice.” Some reviews say “get a soundbar,” but those reviewers must have very high standards, because I can’t imagine needing more sound, unless you have a massive room or expect to feel like you’re in an IMAX theater. But you may demand more from audio than I do.The interface for Google TV is very good and responsive, and I don’t notice any lag to speak of. I’ll note that I connect the TV directly with an Ethernet cable just to ensure a constant, fast connection without interference. I just have nothing bad to say about this TV. It looks and sounds great. My last TCL TV was still working fine after seven years, and hopefully this one will too. Worth every penny!

Brightest TV on the market! Good bang for the buck!
Decided to pull the trigger on the 65″ QM851G. The current price of $897 is as low as it’s ever been. Plus I took advantage of extra 10% off when using my Amazon credit card…. so at the end of the day, got it for a little over $800.I’m replacing a 2017 55″ LG OLED TV. The TV still works ok, but it fell victim to some bad screen burn-in of static images, and the burn-in shadows are especially noticed during bright scenes. I didn’t know about the burn in risk when I originally bought the OLED TV.These QLED TV’s look amazing and the contrast ratio looks almost at par of the OLED sets, without the burn-in risk that OLED TV’s impose.Out of the box, I tweaked with the image settings and turned the brightness down substantially. Even at a low brightness setting, the image is still bright and vibrant.The Google TV platform included is snappy and responsive. The built in speakers sound ok, but nothing tops a good sound bar surround system.Only ding I have against the TV is the high-angled viewing is not good and looks washed out….. typical on most QLED TVs. The new 2025 TCL QM6K addressed this some and improved a little on angled viewing, although the best TVs for angled viewing are the OLED TVs. I’m normally sitting dead center to the TV, so angled viewing isn’t really applicable for me. It’s a bit of a trade off on this TV vs OLED. Sacrifice top-notch angled viewing on this set, but have a brighter screen than OLED and doesn’t have the burn-in risk.

Two TVs arrived damaged/faulty. various software quirks.
I really wanted to love this TV but after the first TV arrived shattered and the replacement arrived with faulty LEDs I can’t recommend this at all.Given the first arrived shattered and promptly returned I can only speak to the experience with the second one.At first the TV seemed perfect, great color, great brightness, great software performance, but the cracks began to show almost immediately:1. flickering LEDs: the left edge of my screen, even after firmware updates and even a factory reset, shimmer and flicker. It’s TV-wide and appears in menus and content alike.2. various settings will be available arbitrarily depending on which picture mode you use (why is light sensor auto brightness disabled in Smart HDR picture mode?) not to mention that none of the picture modes get as bright as “vivid” despite dialing in advanced settings.3. remote and bluetooth controllers disconnect periodically and consistently, making the TV uncontrollable for up to 10 seconds at a time.4. Noticeable input latency when trying to run Moonlight or Steam Link with no ability to turn on low latency mode in TV apps.5. small but noticeable visual glitches when navigating menus (this is thankfully only for a split second at a time)I’m fully aware I can return this TV again and get yet another replacement but somewhere in the chain of quality control has failed me twice and some fatal software flaws make this TV subpar at best for me, especially at the price. I will return this TV and look for a more reputable brand.
