One of Our Favorite TVs of 2025 Just Hit a Record-Low Price 3 hours ago

If you’ve been waiting for the perfect moment to pull the trigger on a new TV, then now’s the time. The TCL QM851 is an updated version of the basic QM8 — our pick for the overall best TV — and right now you’ve got a chance to pick up the 65-inch model at an all-time low price. Amazon has knocked this 2024 QLED TV down to just $898, which is a whopping $602 off the usual price. There’s no telling how long this deal will be available, so we’d recommend getting your order in sooner rather than later if you’re hoping to take advantage of these savings.

We saw some excellent numbers in our TCL QM8 review, and although we haven’t reviewed the QM851 yet, we expect similar things. In that review, we felt the QM8 was great for people who didn’t want an OLED, as the mini-LED didn’t have any burn-in issues. We tested the 65-inch version of the QM8, which featured excellent image quality and brightness.

Though it comes from value brand TCL, the QM851 doesn’t scrimp on features. It comes packed with all the things you’d want from a midrange offering. That includes a true 120Hz refresh rate with HDMI 2.1, which means you can hook up an Xbox Series X or PlayStation 5 and get the full experience, along with VRR, or variable refresh rate.

Other advanced features include AI optimization, Dolby Atmos audio support, Wi-Fi 6 connectivity, Chromecast built-in and a dedicated gaming mode. It also has an IMAX Enhanced Certification, which means it meets specific requirements for resolution, contrast, brightness, color and sound, providing a truly immersive viewing experience at home.

Why this deal matters

TCL’s QM8 series tops our list of the overall best TVs on the market right now, which means they’re already an excellent value at full price. And this Amazon deal drops the updated 65-inch model back down to the lowest price we’ve ever seen. It’s currently on sale for just $898, which is $100 lower than the price we saw during Black Friday, making this a pretty serious (and rare) bargain.
