Is the TCL QM6K good for gaming?

Yes. It has a 120 Hz panel, four HDMI ports and a game mode that lowers input lag. It suits PS5 and Xbox Series X at 4K 120 Hz.

How does the QM6K compare with the QM8?

The QM8 is TCL's flagship with more dimming zones and higher peak brightness. The QM6K gives most of that contrast for less, with fewer zones and a simpler design.

Does the 50-inch QM6K support Dolby Vision and HDR10+?

It supports HDR10, HDR10+ and Dolby Vision, so it handles most streaming HDR formats. Check the app you use for the format it streams.

The TV, a stand, a remote, batteries and a power cable. A wall mount is not included.

Does it work with Alexa and Google Assistant?

Yes. Google TV supports Google Assistant built in, and Alexa and Siri work through the TV or connected devices.

Is 50 inches big enough for a living room?

It suits rooms where the couch is roughly 6 to 8 feet away. For larger rooms or longer viewing distances, the 55- or 65-inch versions fit better.

Our take on the TCL QM6K 50-inch

The TCL QM6K is a 4K QD-Mini LED TV with a 120 Hz panel, four HDMI ports and Google TV built in. It sits in TCL's mid-range QM line, below the flagship QM8, and competes with mini-LED sets from Hisense and Samsung that cost more for similar brightness. The 50-inch size suits a bedroom, small living room or gaming setup where a 55-inch or larger panel won't fit. Reviewers rate its brightness and contrast highly for the class, while noting that off-angle viewing and out-of-the-box picture settings need attention.
