TCL’s 85-inch 120Hz Google smart TV with AirPlay back at the $1,400 low ($1,100 under the original price)

Orig. $2,500/$1,400

Just as I have said before, there’s nothing quite like a brand new shiny 2024 smart TV, but the value on the still perfectly capable 2023 models are enticing to say the least. A great example of this is the deal we are tracking at Amazon for the TCL 85-inch QM8 QLED 4K Smart mini-LED Google TV down at $1,399.99 shipped. First released last spring, it landed with a $2,500 sticker and is now a whole lot less than that. Over the last several months at Amazon it has been carrying a $1,700 price tag and has now returned to the lowest price we have tracked there at an additional $300 off. You’re paying $1,100 les today than you would’ve last spring. That’s a serious deal and a great price for a sizable 85-inch display with a 120Hz refresh rate. 

You’re looking at the QM8 QLED 4K Smart mini-LED Google TV with a brushed metal frame. Joining the mini-LED display, it also features a 120Hz native refresh rate alongside what TCL refers to as “blistering fast 240 VRR” for gaming. The whole thing runs on Google’s TV OS, delivering direct access to streaming services, built-in hands-free voice control via Google Assistant, and more. The AMD FreeSync Premium Pro tech is in place for smooth gaming and fast-action sports alongside  Wi-Fi 6 support, Bluetooth, Apple’s AirPlay 2, HomeKit compatibility, and a pair of HDMI 2.1 inputs.
