TCL TV Prices Plunge Before the Super Bowl as 65-Inch QM8K Hits $998

The steep, time-limited markdowns reflect the annual pre–Super Bowl TV sales cycle.

Overview

  • The 65-inch TCL QM8K QD‑Mini‑LED 4K model is listed at about $997.99 on Amazon, a drop of roughly 60% from its launch MSRP.
  • The larger QM8K sizes are also discounted, with the 75-inch around $1,498–$1,500 and the 98-inch near $3,000, though some Best Buy stock has already sold out.
  • Other TCL sets are seeing cuts, including the 75-inch Class S5 at $479.99 on Amazon and the Best Buy–exclusive 75-inch QM5K Mini‑LED at $599.
  • Coverage highlights premium features on the QM8K such as QD‑Mini‑LED backlighting, Dolby Vision/HDR support, Google TV, HDMI 2.1 ports, VRR, and gaming modes.
  • Outlets report conflicting refresh-rate specs for the QM8K, with some citing 144Hz and others 120Hz, so buyers should confirm the exact SKU and current availability.
