"TCL consistently outperforms its competitors, offering impressive TV technology at prices that necessitate a cost-benefit analysis when considering other brands. For that reason, I've recommended a few recent TCL models to readers, friends, and family. Also: Black Friday TV deals are live now with massive sales: Here are our 40+ top picks After spending several weeks with the 65-inch in our testing lab this summer, I found out what separates the company's 2025 flagship model from others in its class."
"Not long ago, I reviewed the step-down QM7K, which is a terrific Mini LED. My primary critique was the issue of installing the base/stand on that TV, which required 12 screws and more head-scratching time than I care for. Disappointingly, the QM8K required the exact same procedure; there was no improvement there despite the $1,200 difference in the two models."
"The QM8K boasts a "ZeroBorder" design, which is close, but not exactly accurate: its actual bezel is about 4mm wide. That's not bad at all, but "zero" means none, not four millimeters. Still, you'll be looking at a floating rectangle of bright imagery that holds up well even in a sun-drenched room with lots of windows. Its remote control is identical to the QM7K's, a bit plasticky for a flagship product."
TCL consistently outperforms competitors, offering impressive TV technology at competitive prices. The company's 2025 65-inch flagship QM8K features Mini LED performance and a near-zero 4mm 'ZeroBorder' bezel that delivers bright images even in sunlit rooms. The QM8K shares a cumbersome base/stand installation requiring 12 screws, similar to the QM7K, despite a $1,200 price gap. The remote mirrors the QM7K's plastic build but includes backlighting and Google Assistant voice control. Setup is straightforward via Google TV and built-in Chromecast, providing easy access to streaming apps. Black Friday sales present major discounts.
