Our take on the TCL 65Q550F 65-inch

The TCL 65Q550F is a 65-inch 4K QLED TV with full-array local dimming (no local dimming per specs), Dolby Vision and HDR10+ support, and the Fire TV smart platform. It competes with other budget QLEDs like the Hisense U6 and TCL's own 5-Series, offering wide HDR format support and a game mode, but with only a 60Hz panel and no VRR or HDMI 2.1. Reviewers say it delivers good picture quality for the price, though its black levels and peak brightness are limited compared to pricier models. It suits shoppers who want a large, feature-rich TV for movies and casual gaming without spending a lot.
