Our Verdict
TCL QM7/QM751G QLED
TCL QM7K
The TCL QM7/QM751G QLED and the TCL QM7K are similar TVs, although the newer QM7K provides slightly better image quality due to its vastly improved contrast ratio. Still, the QM7 is brighter in HDR, sometimes delivering a more impactful HDR experience depending on the scene. While its contrast isn't as good overall, its black levels are comparable due to its slightly faster and more precise local dimming solution. It's also a bit more colorful than its successor. Gamers will appreciate the QM7K's slightly faster pixel transitions and 288Hz support at 1080p.
