    This tv looks a lot better than last years model. I just know. It’s been advertised of having over 2,500 nits. Now is that for the 55inch model or 65? Don’t know yet but hopefully I will find out soon. It finally has an usb 3.0 input, it’s going to have the new qd-mini-led tech and much better looking because of the stand being in the middle. TCL doing big things as of late. If my local best buy store has this in stock I will return my U8N and get this bad boy if it’s in the 2 week return window. Can’t wait for the full blown review of the qm7!!!!

    The QM7 is supposed to compete with last year’s U8K … perhaps this year’s U8N too ? Per your recent update the U8N went up to nearly 3700 nits peak brightness . Chess moves indeed but the compare may provide insight .

    If TCL can find a way to make the 55inch more brighter than the Hisense 55U8N, then that would be awesome. But I’m still leaning towards the 65QM851G. We shall see.

  4. We’ve purchased the product and are waiting for it to arrive in our lab.

    I’m looking to purchase the 65QM751G. 2 years ago I got my Hisense 65U8G after reading Ratings review. Looking forward to your review on the 65QM751G.

    I purchased a 75" QM7 and am struggling a bit with light reflection. I have floor to ceiling windows behind me when viewing the TV. Currently the 75" QM7 and the 75" U8N are going for the same price. Would the U8N make a significant difference for the reflection issues? Is it worth going through the hassle of exchanging these big Tvs?

    I will add that colorful images do a good job at not showing glare but if there are darker colors on the screen the glare is pretty distracting. Maybe an issue with any TV?

    Recently looked at both side by side at a video only here in Seattle, and damn man…I was so disappointed in the TCLs semi-matte screen. Not only did it look totally flat next to the U8N, but that screen made all reflections 10x worse IMO. The beauty of having crazy bright TV’s is the glares are usually overcome on a glossy screen, but the semi-matte screen diffuses the light so much that the reflections are still present even with 100 backlight.

    Now…all that to say if this TV is in a darkish room, or away from any windows, it’s still going to look great. It’s just so evident how much more the colors pop on the U8N. Of course if you don’t have it next to the Hisense, you won’t ever know of the difference…but in person next to each other it’s pretty shocking.

    My Best Buy only has the 98" QM751G on display, and the semi-gloss is a no go from me. Pretty much makes my decision QM851G or U8N this holiday, as glossy is a MUST for me. Also for the 98" size, right next to the 100" Hisense U76N, are TERRIBLE with light movement?? Like I noticed if you stand feet still but sway your head, the higher up any light is, it warps like crazy; like a kaleidoscope. I thought it was a defect on the U76N at first, but it’s visible on the 98" QM751G, too, maybe just a BIT less. Definitely makes me think 85" would be the biggest I go for sure.

    I bought this TV a few days ago and I’m honestly concerned about the motion. I’ve noticed in action scenes of movies that whatever’s moving is super blurred so bad that there’s a trail of broken up pixels. I’m hoping there’s a setting I can adjust that I can find a fix for.

    Best Buy is having a sale that ends today.

    I bought the 55” QM751 for $499. I can’t imagine there’s a better value in this TV segment at that sale price.

    I wanted to splurge for the 65” QM851 that’s on sale for $1k, but I can’t fit a 65” in the specific gaming space where I’m using it.

    It’s too bad they don’t make a 55” QM851.

    The TV is great so far for gaming on an Xbox Series X.

    Is this perchance your first high refresh rate display? If so, then this is sort of the reality of it. You will have to change some motion settings if you want to attempt to get it closer, but you’re likely not going to get the same quality of motion as you would from Samsung or Sony.

    Same here! Was watching the price on this one, I was shocked to see it at $499 this soon, felt like a no brainer for a mini-LED TV. I was hoping on a 55 QM8 too

    Yesterday I bought the 55in QM751 from Walmart as the $498 price was just too good to pass on. I’m replacing an LG 55in sk8000 LED tv that I bought in 2018.

    Not OP, but I’m loving mine so far. It’s very bright. It’s just my spare bedroom TV., so mostly night watching but it’s totally worth it at this price point. I’m actually exchanging this one for the 65” after those prime day deals, but I was VERY happy with with the 55” > @115611 How are you liking it so far?

    How are you liking it so far?

    So far so good! It’s replacing an 10 year old 1080p Vizio that had backlighting issues on half the TV, so anything was an upgrade at this point haha.

    I also have a 65 inch C1, while the C1 is obviously superior, and makes me appreciate how great that TV is, I bought the QM7 for 1/3 of the price, and it holds up very well. It’s very bright (coming from a C1 so no shock there) and its purpose is just to be a living room TV for some occasional movies and mostly football this fall to watch with friends and family. SDR content on YouTube TV looks good and bright, unlike the C1, but HDR content and shows in Dolby Vision look punchy with great contrast.

    Viewing angles aren’t terrible but could be better, probably my only gripe, but for $499 I don’t think there’s a better deal on the market for a 55 inch

    Since TCL doesn’t disclosed the amount of dimming zones per tv size, here’s what ive found:

    https://www.flatpanelshd.com/tcl_c855_qled_2024.php

    C855 is the European name for the QM751G

    It states that the TVs have 1344, 2160, 2304, 2160 dimming zones for the 65, 75, 85, 98 inch TVs respectively. (pretty excellent count by matching last years QM850, but lower price, imo)

    And yes; its weird that the 85 has more dimming zones than the 98".

    I bought the 55r646 deal for $400 from Walmart. I am having second thoughts due to some of the issues I am having with the operating system sutters, and some motion blur/upscaling settings not looking right. Since this is newer, I wonder if it is worth the extra $100 for a little bit newer tech and if it would even be noticeable?

    The extra $100 is a no brainer to me. Best Buy still has it on sale.

    I went ahead and bit the bullet for the 55” QM751. The sale price just seems too good to be true, so early since it’s been released. I’m coming from a TCL 55R635, with I believe 160 dimming zones. Idk why TCL USA is always so hesitant to list the amount of dimming zones for each tv. If you look at the European version, which I believe is closest to the C765, it’ lists 720 zones for the 55”. Hoping for that amount in the US model, but haven’t seen anyone really confirm this info. One Reddit poster did say they calculated 720 zones.

    Being delivered Monday and I’ll be messing with settings for days, I’m sure. Surprised I haven’t seen too many posts on the QM7’s on any of the other forums. Only a few owner posts. Looking forward to rtings review one day in the future. Also wonder if this tv will stay this price or jump back up a few hundred dollars. I say BB’s tv sales end Sunday and Walmart has been out of stock for this tv for at least a few days. Amazon is backed up, too. Looking forward to others comments on this tv.

    I def will. Give me a couple days after it’s delivered, and I’ll be sure to come back and post. I also have an older LG OLED55C6P, which I have absolutely loved from 2016-17, but it has such bad image retention and a greenish tinge to the picture now, that I’ll probably go with another TCL QM7 or QM8 from this year to replace it, if the one I just purchased turns out to be really good. Still keeping my R635 around, also. It’s been a great tv.

    I’m looking to get a new TV and could use some advice. I’m deciding between the 65" TCL QM7 and the 65" Sony X90L.

    I know the QM7 reviews aren’t out yet, which is a bit frustrating since I would’ve liked to wait for them. However, I’ve been TV-less for a month since moving into my new apartment, so it’s time to make a decision.

    Any thoughts or recommendations?

    Thanks!

    I bought a tcl miniled 55 c755/c805 a few weeks back and experience the same issue. Really wondering what your Sports viewing rating will be once tested, and if you have some recommendations for the calibration / settings to minimize this effect.

    Also let me know what you think of the qm7 in comparison to the r635

    TL;DR This tv is an excellent performing tv. I will be keeping it, and this is replacing an older OLED now. It blows the r635 away, also. Extremely happy with this set.

    Ok, the TV was delivered yesterday from BestBuy. The box didn’t even have on dent on it. It was very shocking to see a tv box in mint condition LOL. I used a few test images to look at the panel uniformity, and it’s pretty good. Don’t see any banding, bad uniformity, etc. The tv was pretty easy to wall mount, if you have the correct screws and mounting bracket. I went ahead and replaced my old LG OELD55C6P with this 55QM751G. I have an older TCL 55R635 in a bedroom, and it’s been a great tv. Not perfect, but I’ve really liked it and the Roku operating system, on that tv.

    I purchased the QM7 because the price was just too good to pass up, IMHO ($499). This tv, for me, was worth every penny I paid for it. The LG was around $1500 in 2016 when I bought it. The R635 was $649 when I purchased it. Out of the box there a ton of settings to mess with on this tv. I’m not a Google fan. I’m in the Apple ecosystem with everything I own. I was very hesitant about this tv’s OS being Google TV. It was extremely easy to setup. The OS let me log into my accounts and speed up the process some, and I will compliment the GTV implementation.

    The menu system is fairly nice. It’s not bad at all, coming from a Roku OS. Again, a lot more options, it seems like. I’ve watched all kinds of programming within the Google TV interface, and from my latest gen Apple TV 4K streaming box. I’ve watched Dolby Vision, SDR, HDR10+, HFR HDR, and broadcast 1080i signal. I use Hulu, Paramount+, Apple TV+, Max, Prime Video, Starz, Youtube, Disney+, and Netflix for streaming and I’ve tried to test them all as much as I could in the last 24 hours, with some good test scenes.

    Some of these streamers, such as Hulu, don’t stream in 4k HDR in the Google TV interface. Some of the apps don’t even label the content correctly as HDR content. Shame on these streaming companies for releasing under par apps for the GTV. This could be a big letdown for some. I don’t have any of these problems with the ATV. The apps on the ATV are just superior when it comes to this, and the updates/bug fixes to the apps are quite often. The HDR content I did watch in the Google TV interface was really good, when it was available. SDR content on Youtube looked fairly good to me, also. There are times when the GTV interface is sluggish. I tried watching some 4K HDR 60fps content on YouTube, and it brought down the OS to a sluggish crawl. I tried this several times, and even tried rebooting the tv. I also made sure all the apps were updated and the firmware was updated to the latest version V097.

    Other than the lack of HDR compatibility with some of the streaming apps, and the laggy GTV interface, at times, it’s not a bad system for a tv’s OS. I could live with it, if I had to. Now I’m in no way a profession video calibrator, just an A/V enthusiast, at heart. I’m using a Denon AVR x-4300h audio receiver with a 5.2.4 Atmos speaker setup, and an ATV box for my daily system setup. I like to use the Game mode when connecting an external device to a receiver and tv. It seems to process the video signal less and I get zero audio lip sync issues, using this setting. I’ve had zero lip sync issues with this tv, so far. (using the google interface and the apple interface) Movie mode is equally good.

    Picture quality. This tv, in a lot of ways, blows my LG OLED from 2016 out of the water. Will it stand up to a 2024 OLED? Maybe. My LG always impressed me with picture quality. When the burn in and color started fading, in sections of the tv, it just made it unwatchable any longer. I did have over 10,000 hours on the tv, though. I’m going to try giving it away and see if anyone wants it, to save from trashing it. The HDR content on this tv is just amazing. I watch most of my tv viewing in a darkened room, with curtains closed. This tv is extremely bright. Extremely. Colors are amazing. 24fps playback is excellent. Motion judder, for me, is very good. I’ve only played with the tv’s setting a tiny bit. I haven’t went in and changed a lot of the advanced settings. I just turned some of the settings off, and adjusted other settings, slightly. Out of the box, DV settings are pretty good. I played scenes of movies on my iPhone 15 Pro Max, which has an excellent OLED screen, and compared it, in real time to the TCL and they were just about identical. I haven’t experienced any black crush. I can’t wait to see the rtings.com review of this tv, and then tinker around a little more with the advanced settings.

    I don’t particularly like motion blur, judder or whatever you want to call it. I don’t like setting up a tv with the terrible ‘soap opera’ effect. I just will not do it. (it is good for sports sometimes, though) Some panning camera scenes in movies are just going to have some ‘judder’ to them. When I go to my local Dolby Vision cinema which has a great laser HDR projector, it still has some of these effects on certain camera panning scenes. It’s just the nature of 24fps. I’ve seen little to no blooming on this set. Maybe a little in a white on black background, opening credits scene. Maybe. It’s so extremely hard to see any, that if it’s there, it’s so minimal that it doesn’t bother me. Black bars on 16:9 content looked black to me and I have no complaints about them being washed out. I watched some sports. (ice hockey and football, and they both looked great to me) Now, I’ve just hit 50 years of age and my perfect vision I had all my life, isn’t so perfect any longer. I’m judging this tv with my eyes, and how I see things now, not like when I was 25 years old. (I was a LOT more critical when I was younger. Now, not so much. Life’s too short to worry about perfection all the time)

    So, I’ll put it this way. I love this TV. TCL tv’s just keep getting better and better. I can’t imagine how much better the QM851 one is with more dimming zones, when this one is pretty outstanding to me. This tv blows away my older TCL 55R635. I’ll probably buy another one of these to replace it one day. This tv excels at HDR content. YouTube SDR looked pretty good to me, also. Broadcast television looked about as good as you’d expect it. I’ve always believed, garbage in, garbage out, when it comes to what you’re trying to play. You can try and make it look better, but I’m fine with SDR most of the time. I like streaming all of my content from an outside player, always have and always will. The GTV interface is very good. The app selection is great. I don’t have any complaints with the Google OS, except for it being a little sluggish at times. I may come back and update this post in a month, if anything changes with how I feel about this tv.

    For now, this is one of the best tv’s I’ve ever used. I may not be using the correct terminology for some of the things I tried to explain here, and I’m not worried about it. I just tried to explain it the best I could. Maybe I won the ‘panel lottery’ LOL. As with anything in life, your mileage may vary, when checking out this tv. I won’t argue that some have not liked this television for their own reasons. For me, this is one of the best tvs, for the value out there. Have fun with your tv’s!

There are times when the GTV interface is sluggish. I tried watching some 4K HDR 60fps content on YouTube, and it brought down the OS to a sluggish crawl. I tried this several times, and even tried rebooting the tv. I also made sure all the apps were updated and the firmware was updated to the latest version V097. Other than the lack of HDR compatibility with some of the streaming apps, and the laggy GTV interface, at times, it’s not a bad system for a tv’s OS. I could live with it, if I had to. Now I’m in no way a profession video calibrator, just an A/V enthusiast, at heart. I’m using a Denon AVR x-4300h audio receiver with a 5.2.4 Atmos speaker setup, and an ATV box for my daily system setup. I like to use the Game mode when connecting an external device to a receiver and tv. It seems to process the video signal less and I get zero audio lip sync issues, using this setting. I’ve had zero lip sync issues with this tv, so far. (using the google interface and the apple interface) Movie mode is equally good. Picture quality. This tv, in a lot of ways, blows my LG OLED from 2016 out of the water. Will it stand up to a 2024 OLED? Maybe. My LG always impressed me with picture quality. When the burn in and color started fading, in sections of the tv, it just made it unwatchable any longer. I did have over 10,000 hours on the tv, though. I’m going to try giving it away and see if anyone wants it, to save from trashing it. The HDR content on this tv is just amazing. I watch most of my tv viewing in a darkened room, with curtains closed. This tv is extremely bright. Extremely. Colors are amazing. 24fps playback is excellent. Motion judder, for me, is very good. I’ve only played with the tv’s setting a tiny bit. I haven’t went in and changed a lot of the advanced settings. I just turned some of the settings off, and adjusted other settings, slightly. Out of the box, DV settings are pretty good. I played scenes of movies on my iPhone 15 Pro Max, which has an excellent OLED screen, and compared it, in real time to the TCL and they were just about identical. I haven’t experienced any black crush. I can’t wait to see the rtings.com review of this tv, and then tinker around a little more with the advanced settings. I don’t particularly like motion blur, judder or whatever you want to call it. I don’t like setting up a tv with the terrible ‘soap opera’ effect. I just will not do it. (it is good for sports sometimes, though) Some panning camera scenes in movies are just going to have some ‘judder’ to them. When I go to my local Dolby Vision cinema which has a great laser HDR projector, it still has some of these effects on certain camera panning scenes. It’s just the nature of 24fps. I’ve seen little to no blooming on this set. Maybe a little in a white on black background, opening credits scene. Maybe. It’s so extremely hard to see any, that if it’s there, it’s so minimal that it doesn’t bother me. Black bars on 16:9 content looked black to me and I have no complaints about them being washed out. I watched some sports. (ice hockey and football, and they both looked great to me) Now, I’ve just hit 50 years of age and my perfect vision I had all my life, isn’t so perfect any longer. I’m judging this tv with my eyes, and how I see things now, not like when I was 25 years old. (I was a LOT more critical when I was younger. Now, not so much. Life’s too short to worry about perfection all the time)
    So, I’ll put it this way. I love this TV. TCL tv’s just keep getting better and better. I can’t imagine how much better the QM851 one is with more dimming zones, when this one is pretty outstanding to me. This tv blows away my older TCL 55R635. I’ll probably buy another one of these to replace it one day. This tv excels at HDR content. YouTube SDR looked pretty good to me, also. Broadcast television looked about as good as you’d expect it. I’ve always believed, garbage in, garbage out, when it comes to what you’re trying to play. You can try and make it look better, but I’m fine with SDR most of the time. I like streaming all of my content from an outside player, always have and always will. The GTV interface is very good. The app selection is great. I don’t have any complaints with the Google OS, except for it being a little sluggish at times. I may come back and update this post in a month, if anything changes with how I feel about this tv.
    For now, this is one of the best tv’s I’ve ever used. I may not be using the correct terminology for some of the things I tried to explain here, and I’m not worried about it. I just tried to explain it the best I could. Maybe I won the ‘panel lottery’ LOL. As with anything in life, your mileage may vary, when checking out this tv. I won’t argue that some have not liked this television for their own reasons. For me, this is one of the best tvs, for the value out there. Have fun with your tv’s!

    Thank you so very much, for your detailed yet passionate review, you’ve helped confirm and reassure all that I’ve researched and cannot wait til I’ve saved up enough to purchase this tv for myself

    Since TCL doesn’t disclosed the amount of dimming zones per tv size, here’s what ive found: https://www.flatpanelshd.com/tcl_c855_qled_2024.php C855 is the European name for the QM751G It states that the TVs have 1344, 2160, 2304, 2160 dimming zones for the 65, 75, 85, 98 inch TVs respectively. (pretty excellent count by matching last years QM850, but lower price, imo) And yes; its weird that the 85 has more dimming zones than the 98".

    This is incorrect. The QM751G may be a line-up similar to a relatively cheaper Chinese model called the Q9K, which may come out as the C765. The C855 may be similar to a Chinese model called the Q10K, and may be a higher tier model with a significant difference from the Q9K.

    One thing I forgot to mention: the remote control is great. One of the best I’ve used. Backlit, very responsive and the layout is easy to use.

    A couple people who own and have tested their 55QM751G, said they are almost certain this model has around 720 dimming zones. (Measured vertical and horizontal tests) This makes me think the closest model outside the USA, would be the C765 series, also. This series has around the same amount of nits listed when compared to this model, also. But just an educated guess.

  37. Our testers have started testing this product; is there anything specific you’re looking to see? Let us know in this thread.

    Anyone get the TCL 98QM751? I ordered it from best buy on sale and it is being delivered on Tuesday (supposedly). I was wondering how it was with the xbox series X, Sony X700 4k bluray player. How good is the brightness and the dimming ability? I am coming from a Vizio M series circa 2016.

    As someone who is a Samsung, Hisense, Samsung Frame, and Sony owner, this is easily the best remote I’ve used. Period. Everyone else take note…
