What Buyers Say
TCL QM7K Series 55QM7K 54.6"
82 out of 100 high confidence 273 reviews
The TCL QM7K series delivers impressive picture quality with vibrant colors, deep blacks, and high brightness, often compared favorably to OLEDs at a lower price point. Gamers particularly appreciate the 144Hz refresh rate and responsive performance, while the built-in sound system with subwoofers surprises many users. However, some buyers report issues with the Google TV interface being slow or cluttered, and a few received damaged open-box units with missing parts or poor customer service from Best Buy.
