TCL has slashed prices across its QM8K QLED line, with the 65-inch configuration seeing the deepest cut. According to News Of Fort Worth, the model now sells for $1,000, a 60 percent markdown that brings flagship performance to mid-range budgets.
Zero-Bezel Design Meets Flaglet-Level Brightness
The QM8K’s most noticeable trait is the near-absence of bezels, giving the panel a floating appearance when mounted on its included pedestal. Inside, the set pumps out 5,000 nits of peak brightness-far above typical mid-range TVs-while supporting every major HDR format, including HDR10+ and Dolby Vision IQ.
Google TV handles the interface, offering both Chromecast and AirPlay 2 so Android and Apple households can stream without extra hardware. A 144 Hz refresh rate and dedicated game mode also make the set viable for console or PC gaming.
