TCL QM7K Review | BEST OPTION RIGHT NOW?!
Walts TV
Expert Pick #09
TCL QM7K.
QD-Mini LED with 2,500 dimming zones, 144Hz native refresh, and Bang & Olufsen audio — the best value Mini-LED TV available.
The Verdict.
8.0/ 10
Gavler Meta-Score
“The QM7K is the TV the S55 wished it could be — real Mini-LED performance with deep blacks, excellent HDR, and gaming-ready 144Hz, all for under $700. Bang & Olufsen audio tuning means you can delay the soundbar purchase. Anti-reflective coating handles bright rooms well. The main trade-off is that it doesn't match the TCL X11L's extreme brightness, but at a fraction of the price, it doesn't need to.”
