Our take on the TCL QM8K 85-inch

The TCL QM8K is TCL's flagship 4K QLED TV, using Mini LED backlighting with up to 3,800 local dimming zones and very high peak brightness for HDR. The 85-inch version pairs a 144Hz native panel with Game Accelerator 288, four HDMI ports, Wi-Fi 6 and Google TV, plus Bang & Olufsen-tuned speakers with Dolby Atmos. It competes with high-zone Mini LED sets from Hisense and Samsung at a lower price tier, and reviewers generally rate its brightness and contrast highly while noting that upscaling of low-quality content and off-angle color are weaker than the best premium sets. It suits large living rooms and bright rooms, and gamers who want a big, fast screen.
