Almost bought a 98” from Best Buy but ended up going with the 100” Hisense U70 at Costco. Free delivery and wall mounting plus $100 Google Play credit. I am very impressed with how good the Hisense looks. I was concerned about black levels because I am used to an LG C3 Oled, but the Hisense can hang with and for the size it’s unreal.
@@Caleb_Denison Not at all. I recall you having album covers in the background...Wu Tang, Jazz, etc. I love it. I used to DJ when I was at Penn State.

It's funny that they're having a "sale" when if i want a 144Hz TV the TCL one is 2000$ CAD and the Hisense version U8N is 1500$ and RTINGS rates it better by a slight margin.
I was leaning towards getting the 65" TCL QM8 for $899, but Walmart is currently selling the Sony X93L for $1000 on a clearance sale, so I couldn't pass the deal up.
But Walmart won't sell it to you. I have been denied the sell in the last 6 days for the 75" on at least 10 attempt. Please tell me if you were able to make the purchase.

The price been the same for 2 months for almost all the models. Had my eye on the TCL 65 QM8, its been at 899 for two months. Hoping TCL drops the price one more time before the 2025 is out.
He did say this video was sponsored by TCL. However, what he said isn't something new about TCL. He's been saying the same thing so the script is all his own opinion.
Caleb. I respect the video but these prices are generally within the usual sales range for TCL throughout the year. I think I’m curious to see what Sansui does in the budget OLED this year. With the new models (I need to see the review for the 65) that’s what I’m more interested in. If the brightness is good enough that’s what I’m in for. If the TCL QM751G went down to $599 for the 65 I might bite then. Otherwise OLED all the way.
As far as I’m aware, the 98-inch Q651G only dipped down to $1500 once before, and the didn’t have a TV of that quality down that low in price in 2023. Also, adjusting for inflation, I believe these really are the lowest they have priced their TVs at this time of year, ahead of actual close out sales. I asked them point-blank if this was the most aggressive sale they have ever run and they said yes, and by a fair margin (or lack thereof, LOL). I’m not into hyperbole for the sale of clicks, so I really tried to ensure this was the lowest I’ve seen them go before running with that headline. Thanks for your comment!
@ I certainly believe you. I should have clarified that the sales were in range of the model size for what I’m looking for. I’ve seen the 65 inch for a few of these models for these prices several times. Black Friday. Christmas. Etc. the 98 inch I bet it’s the lowest ever. Esp with their newer models incoming this year. But yes thanks for the video! Can’t wait to see what Sansui does though and thanks for your review!
The QM8 98" isn't listed at the sale price you showed in your video (at least on Amazon, it is at Best Buy but totally sold out and can't order for delivery). It's still $3700. Bummer, I was gonna get it.
I really want to wait for the LG C4 to go on sale but the LG C3 is on sale for $799 at Walmart. Should I wait and see if the C4 goes on sale or should I settle for the C3?
@alishwaiheen1532 Thank you! Do you know what the main differences are? I'm mostly curious about picture quality and not visuals, remote control, OS, etc.
Low/lower priced TVs is a great thing, but how long is any TV at any price going to last? Seems like they are ALL junk and some just a bit better than another. Everything is throw away junk these days. It is so rare to find someone to repair TVs now. Luckily I repair most of my own gear, but still sad for most everyone else. I can't remember the last time I have heard a manufacturer of anything make claims about how long lasting their products are.
Thanks. I'm looking but my 64" elite from 2004 is still working. Not to mention my surround sound system is all rca connections and the new tvs are only hdmi and my marantz amp is not. So I guess I have a problem.
Ordered a 65 inch QM8 2024 from Best Buy on Thursday. They must have been sold out because it's still not expected to show up for pickup until tomorrow (Sunday) but I really hope I like it. I had a Sony X90J and the blooming on that thing while gaming and watching movies absolutely drove me crazy. I'm more of a gamer than a movie watcher but I still enjoy me some movies and TV from time to time so I picked up the TCL QM8 at the recommendation of multiple channels. Pleaseeeeeeeee be good.
I got a 75” Bravia 9 from the Best Buy outlet for $2500 usd. It was an amazing tv, but I returned it. As good as it is, it’s still not an OLED. Waiting for the 77” Bravia 9ii
I missed out, finally decided to get 98 qm8 the other day, it was 3k, then couple hours later went to look buy, and the only ones left anywhere shot up almost 700 bucks. So ya I missed out and will wait next qm8 98 sale, but I have a feeling it will be about 4 years until tvs will be this affordable again😅
I just clicked the link for the QM8 98" and it says the price is $3698.00 , was the sale for only a couple hours ? Says your video was released 21 hours ago.
That is NOT a fair question. I mean, my favorite for what? I will say that Bobby Shew and Freddy Hubbard have probably had the greatest overall influence on my playing, though.
But also, all the work Gary Grant did for Quincy Jones productions? Wayne Bergeron for impeccable lead playing? Tom Harrell for his insane taste and approach? There are SO MANY that I love
So... how is the reliability of TCL? I um.. have a 55" Samsung 1080p that is heading towards its 15th year of running great. no dead pixels, no bleed in. I am considering finally taking the plunge, but I feel concerned about how long these new tvs will last and viewing angles. I want to consider a 75 inch. what say ye?
I bought the 85” TCLQM850G based on Caleb’s recommendation. It is amazing. The only downside to the tv is the way it handles slow panning shots. It produces a noticeable amount of stutter or judder. I don’t like messing with the motion settings so I just deal with it. Another issue I have with my 85” is that I have already gotten used to the size and now I’m looking to upgrade to a 98”. I just don’t know if I should go with the QM7 or QM8. I feel like the QM7 hits the right price to performance sweet spot at $2k but I’d feel like I’d be downgrading. QM8 will be a beast but I don’t know if I could justify that extra $1k premium. But then I’m also eyeing the 83” LG C4 lol.
"only" $15k. Ooohkay. But yeah, Super Bowl clearance sales are GREAT! I needed something to replace a 50" 1080p Toshiba FireTV whose HDMI board is dying. Two different known working Roku Ultra's, multiple known good HDMI cables, and regardless which of that Toshiba's 3 HDMI inputs I tried I'm getting random video dropouts. Like, the audio is still playing just fine to my Sony sound bar, but the picture flicks in and out at random intervals. But other times it'll play for hours without a glitch. All while having no dropouts ever when using the native OS/apps, just that experience has become SO laggy with recent FireTV updates it had become unbearable (hence the Roku box). Being space restricted (stand is 35"W, space is 46"W), a 50" was my max. Having the BBY app on my phone, I'd gotten notifications Friday of a "big sale", and had literally gone and picked up a 50Q651G yesterday and the first video I see in my YT feed on powering it up and signing in is this one. So far a day later it's been great!
Costco has a model on sale in stock TCL98 inch Q672g apparently they have their own model numbers so how do you compare and which one does it compare to? Can anyone help? 😮
Can you do a video on whether the 75” TCL QM8 or 75” Sony X93L would be the better tv to get as Walmart has the Sony for the same price Best Buy has the tcl
Hey Caleb. I've seen Costco's Q672G 98" at 1500 for a bit I believe but not necessarily the non-costco variant, the Q651G that you mentioned in the video. Do you think there is a difference? The Costco version comes with the extended warranty they usually offer plus a 100 dollar play store credit which makes it an even better value.
According to the video, the 98" QM851G is on sale for $2,999.99, but the Amazon link has the TV costing $3,698.00. That's still $300 less than the QM8 cost before Christmas but still $699 more than claimed in the video. I see two likely reasons for the discrepancy. Either the video editor made a mistake and put the wrong sale price in the video, or the sale hasn't started yet. Caleb, is the video's price wrong, or has the insane sale not started yet? If the latter, when does it start? Also, if anyone was hoping to buy this TV to watch the "Big Game," according to the Amazon listing, the TV "Usually ships within 7 to 8 days." That means it won't arrive until after the game.
Best Buy has the 98" QM8 listed for $2,999.99, but it's out of stock. I was planning to buy the 98" Hisense UX prior to Christmas, but it was out of stock. It became available, but only after the price increased from $4,500 to $7,999.99. It's on sale again but is once again out of stock. At least the QM8 is available to purchase on Amazon even if it's more expensive and, apparently, does not come with the free installation offered by Best Buy.
Not a lot of value brought by this video, man. I know you were transparent about the sponsorship, but it doesnt change the fact that it felt like it cheapened your impact as a tech guide.
It’s a clip provided by TCL, So I’m not sure if you can get your hands on it. The NFL is very very serious about copyright enforcement, so it’s extremely hard for us to show any kind of football on the televisions in our videos. We were thankful that, with its partnership with the NFL, TCL was able to give us that clip. Unfortunately, it was very short, so we ended up having to show it quite a bit.
All the prices (at least in 85 and up) appear exactly the same as they have been most of January except for the Q65 98" which has been about $1699, if i recall. Thats a great value, but i wish they made it in th Q68 variety. Dont think it would work well in my very bright room
I just picked up a 75qm851g for $1200 off. Sadly I also picked up a 55qm651g for the bedroom and showed up looking like someone kicked the box and it had screen damage.
QM7 65" from Amazon for nice price to replace an older vizio. TV looks amazing and paired with a Hisense sound bar that had good reviews. Giving some thought to picking up a 55" qm7 to replace a tv I lost due to power surge during storm. TCL makes very nice tv's for a great price.
Recently picked up a 50 inch TCL Q6 QLED during the holidays I'm really impressed with it like it a lot but I'm more than likely going to pull the plug on the TCL Qm7 from 2024 prices will continue to decrease.
@Caleb I’ve noticed it said sale to the 9th?! Ok will this TV’s go back on sale around tax time or they will stay the original price?! I don’t understand why they’re taking TV’s off sale before people get their taxes. They already high enough.
I bought 2 x 65” TCL tv on same day. One of them spoilt after 1 year 10 days. My warranty only 1 year. The spoilt tv is setup with internet which can watch Netflix, Apple TV app etc. another same model don’t because only my tv box link to internet. I wonder is it due to internet send code tell my tv info my tv’s warranty is over, time to auto spoil it? Without internet linked still running great…..
Even here in Rip off UK there are plenty of deals to be found as TCL's 2025 models are now available. Even the infamous QM8B is on offer with 5 months interest free payments. at the lowest price i have ever seen. I am so tempted.
This video invalidates all the reviews on this channel by taking money from TCL, a company who makes the reviewed/compared products. Very clear misaligned incentives
Yup. Very clearly stated multiple times it is a sponsored video. If I’m gonna bother making one, I’ve gotta believe in it and I’m gonna make the best one I can. I get the vibe like your comment wasn’t meant as a complement, but thanks for the comment either way!
Caleb, do you really need to make the vapid faces on your video thumbnails? I enjoy your content, but this will cause you to lose part of your audience.
Soon the prices will come up quite a lot :-) USA owe some 37 trillion USD or some 125 000 USD for everyone and each American ! The interest on this debt is staggering and the tariffs that T put on the imports will work as a new 25% tax !
How long do the TCL last ?? I have 3 friends that owned 65 inch TCL tv on lasted 2 years the other 2 guys tvs lasted 3 years. The all really liked the tvs but all bought a different brands to replace the TCL.
This is where I lost respect for you. It doesn't happen often. You can't make a video promoting TCL whilst sponsored by the "Chinese" brand TCL. If you don't have to pay workers and have zero regulations, you can get TVs cheap. This is a low for you. You'd never catch Vincent doing this. Money grab. I can see you as a wedding "musician". Hmm
TCL North American TVs like Japanese and their South Korean TV brands are manufactured in Mexico. Cheap labor yes but not free labor. Watch some CNBC, read some business news and be informed. If TVs and other electronics were to be made in the United States, most people would not afford to buy them. American TV brands or any American electronics can't compete with East Asian brands in both price and quality.
What model? I bought a 55 QM7 to replace my burnt out LG OLED, and couldn't be happier. Even when the OLED was brand new, I really think the QM7 has the better colors and HDR pop. The OLED shows banding on HDR sources that the TCL handles smoothly. Yes, I miss the total black and perfect contrast, but I wasn't going to pay $1900 again for small improvements.
55Q671G is what I had. It was basically a Temu grade TV. The image was awful, grainy and washed out. It supposedly could boost games to 120hz, yet playing Xbox was the worst experience. It stuttered and lagged like I've never seen. I was attempting to replace my 16 year old Panasonic Vierra, which I'm now gonna keep until it fails. It still works and I've never appreciated it's image more after trying out a TCL.
@@jarathen1625Supply chain pipeline seldom moves as quickly as the demand induced by reviews such as these 😂 I happen to live in Canada, and so many of these new models or newly resurgent brands such as Panasonic are not available here for at least a full quarter year, and even then certainly not at comparable pricing.
Please note a typo in the pricing graphic around 4:30. It should read "Q651G".

Also, if anyone was hoping to buy this TV to watch the "Big Game," according to the Amazon listing, the TV "Usually ships within 7 to 8 days." That means it won't arrive until after the game.
Best Buy has the 98" QM8 listed for $2,999.99, but it's out of stock. I was planning to buy the 98" Hisense UX prior to Christmas, but it was out of stock. It became available, but only after the price increased from $4,500 to $7,999.99. It's on sale again but is once again out of stock. At least the QM8 is available to purchase on Amazon even if it's more expensive and, apparently, does not come with the free installation offered by Best Buy.
Not a lot of value brought by this video, man. I know you were transparent about the sponsorship, but it doesnt change the fact that it felt like it cheapened your impact as a tech guide.
Thanks Caleb!
I want a 100" TV so bad! ❤
How does compare to the LG?
What is the football video clip on the screen in the backgound? Would love to test it on my current setup!
It’s a clip provided by TCL, So I’m not sure if you can get your hands on it. The NFL is very very serious about copyright enforcement, so it’s extremely hard for us to show any kind of football on the televisions in our videos. We were thankful that, with its partnership with the NFL, TCL was able to give us that clip. Unfortunately, it was very short, so we ended up having to show it quite a bit.
All the prices (at least in 85 and up) appear exactly the same as they have been most of January except for the Q65 98" which has been about $1699, if i recall. Thats a great value, but i wish they made it in th Q68 variety. Dont think it would work well in my very bright room
Awesome video 👍
I just picked up a 75qm851g for $1200 off. Sadly I also picked up a 55qm651g for the bedroom and showed up looking like someone kicked the box and it had screen damage.
Can you please review the 100-in Hisense class QD7
QM7 65" from Amazon for nice price to replace an older vizio. TV looks amazing and paired with a Hisense sound bar that had good reviews. Giving some thought to picking up a 55" qm7 to replace a tv I lost due to power surge during storm. TCL makes very nice tv's for a great price.
Recently picked up a 50 inch TCL Q6 QLED during the holidays I'm really impressed with it like it a lot but I'm more than likely going to pull the plug on the TCL Qm7 from 2024 prices will continue to decrease.
love your TV unit
@Caleb I’ve noticed it said sale to the 9th?! Ok will this TV’s go back on sale around tax time or they will stay the original price?! I don’t understand why they’re taking TV’s off sale before people get their taxes. They already high enough.
$10,000 for an extra 17"? Hilarious.
I bought 2 x 65” TCL tv on same day. One of them spoilt after 1 year 10 days. My warranty only 1 year. The spoilt tv is setup with internet which can watch Netflix, Apple TV app etc. another same model don’t because only my tv box link to internet. I wonder is it due to internet send code tell my tv info my tv’s warranty is over, time to auto spoil it? Without internet linked still running great…..
There is no Best Buy in Europe.
All TCL TV''s are in general 50% more expensive overhere.
Best deal right now is the Sony X93L 65” & 75” at Walmart
Even here in Rip off UK there are plenty of deals to be found as TCL's 2025 models
are now available.
Even the infamous QM8B is on offer with 5 months interest free payments.
at the lowest price i have ever seen.
I am so tempted.
Why not get the QM7? It’s known as the Q9B here in the UK. 90 days return, 5 year warranty at Costco.
@@user-yg5km6tw8c Good idea, i will wait until Richer Sounds have it on offer, i don't have
a Costco account.
"I recommend TCL tvs to my friends and family all the time." Sure. it's easy to say in a paid promotion video.
Bravia 9 85 waiting price drop
Sony is smoking crack with the Bravia 9 price tag.
Best Buy offers free installation, don’t think if any other place offers that. I’ll let someone else do the work
Might have to get that QM8 98"
Waiting for the S95F and G5 release date.
Are this sales only in US?I leave in Ireland and i haven’t seen any sales in the last year on any tv brand,on Black Fridays the best sale was 5€ off 😂
What's $1500 with a 25% tariff? FDT
98” is $1500 but 17 more inches $15,000?
Caleb, "Only $15,000." (For a TV.)
I'm in the good ol' United 🇬🇧 Kingdom, and my £12,106 is staying in my savings account!
TCL 2025 TV improvements are so significant, it would be better to skip the 2024 TVs.
This video invalidates all the reviews on this channel by taking money from TCL, a company who makes the reviewed/compared products. Very clear misaligned incentives
Some of those tv's are almost double the price at best Buy Canada i dont mind paying a Little more then the USA but not double...no thank you
Great explanation
You're making me feel small and inferior with my tiny 75 inch screen.
dammnn....just had to wait one more year and I could have got a 85" TV for less than $900 (tax included)!
Cool commercial
Yup. Very clearly stated multiple times it is a sponsored video. If I’m gonna bother making one, I’ve gotta believe in it and I’m gonna make the best one I can. I get the vibe like your comment wasn’t meant as a complement, but thanks for the comment either way!
@@Caleb_DenisonCaleb u are to cool of a guy to get offended by dumb comments I appreciate what u do
Caleb, do you really need to make the vapid faces on your video thumbnails? I enjoy your content, but this will cause you to lose part of your audience.
Hisense is killing tcl as far as prices hisense u8n 85 inch slightly better than qm8 is 1699
🎺 GANG GANG GANG
TCL sales man
Can't blame him, they're doing some amazing stuff for half the price
And the new tariffs are going into effect so save now.
Hisense u7n vs tcl qm7 once again hisense a little bit better overall 1.3k vs 1.4k for 85 inch
Soon the prices will come up quite a lot :-) USA owe some 37 trillion USD or some 125 000 USD for everyone and each American !
The interest on this debt is staggering and the tariffs that T put on the imports will work as a new 25% tax !
Thanks, no. Unless they bother to pre-calibrate their TVs on factory, I won't give them any money.
Yeah... TCL is cheap, but it also looks cheap.
15k is cheap?
Sunny OLED, no less
*Sony OLED?
Your voice is sounding more and more like that of FOMO
Who’s here in 2025?
Dafuq
Not me, if the dates I've been writing are anything to go by
Cringe tho
Everyone pal… the videos been released for 59 minutes
Nah I'm here in 1986
How long do the TCL last ?? I have 3 friends that owned 65 inch TCL tv on lasted 2 years the other 2 guys tvs lasted 3 years. The all really liked the tvs but all bought a different brands to replace the TCL.
The Hisense U7 144hz 100inch is $1849 on Amazon. Blows out everything in this video for price to performance.
I don't like it when channels take sponsorships from the stuff they review. Not even watching. This is an 8:00 TCL ad.
🎉🎉🎉
This is where I lost respect for you. It doesn't happen often. You can't make a video promoting TCL whilst sponsored by the "Chinese" brand TCL. If you don't have to pay workers and have zero regulations, you can get TVs cheap. This is a low for you. You'd never catch Vincent doing this. Money grab. I can see you as a wedding "musician". Hmm
TCL North American TVs like Japanese and their South Korean TV brands are manufactured in Mexico. Cheap labor yes but not free labor. Watch some CNBC, read some business news and be informed. If TVs and other electronics were to be made in the United States, most people would not afford to buy them. American TV brands or any American electronics can't compete with East Asian brands in both price and quality.
The best time to buy a TCL is never! The QLED 55" I recently got is literally the worst TV I've ever purchased. Boxed it up and returned immediately.
Why
Buying a cheap TV doesn't generally mean the company makes bad products, it's incredibly stupid to comment like this. 🤦🏻♂️
What model? I bought a 55 QM7 to replace my burnt out LG OLED, and couldn't be happier. Even when the OLED was brand new, I really think the QM7 has the better colors and HDR pop. The OLED shows banding on HDR sources that the TCL handles smoothly. Yes, I miss the total black and perfect contrast, but I wasn't going to pay $1900 again for small improvements.
55Q671G is what I had. It was basically a Temu grade TV. The image was awful, grainy and washed out. It supposedly could boost games to 120hz, yet playing Xbox was the worst experience. It stuttered and lagged like I've never seen. I was attempting to replace my 16 year old Panasonic Vierra, which I'm now gonna keep until it fails. It still works and I've never appreciated it's image more after trying out a TCL.
It was so bad I can't tell if it was a defective unit or not.
Thumbnails have become like moronic Tiktok posts or Mr Beast shorts. Sorry, unsubscribing, Caleb🙁
LOL. Nobody will miss you.
Unsubbing over thumbnails is WILD 😂
What about the MAGA 🍊 tariffs ?
What about them?
There aren't any yet. Time to buy if you wanted a new tv.
They're coming. Now is the time to buy what's on shelves.
Trump will sink you fools!
@@jarathen1625Supply chain pipeline seldom moves as quickly as the demand induced by reviews such as these 😂 I happen to live in Canada, and so many of these new models or newly resurgent brands such as Panasonic are not available here for at least a full quarter year, and even then certainly not at comparable pricing.
