Console gamers will appreciate the 120Hz refresh rate, which can be boosted to 144Hz for ultra-smooth motion during fast-paced action sequences. The set also features an automatic low-latency mode to reduce input reaction times that can cause lag between your button presses and on-screen reactions. Gamers and movie buffs can use the QLED panel’s ability to create 100% of the DCI-P3 color spectrum for better color accuracy and more lifelike images.

The TCL Q65 also features an updated, AI-assisted processor for faster and more efficient upscaling of non-4K content and enhanced picture quality at native 4K resolution. It features a built-in subwoofer for enhanced bass and richer audio when streaming music, movies, and TV shows.

As an added bonus, you’ll also get 3 months of YouTube Premium for free, and you can also save up to 50% on Google Nest devices like indoor/outdoor security cameras, video doorbells, and smart thermostats. Best Buy rewards members can also earn up to $100 in bonus rewards with this TV purchase.

All you have to do to take advantage of the main offer is add the 98-inch TCL Q6 to your cart, and the Best Buy website will automatically apply the discount. You’ll then receive a digital redemption code in your email for your YouTube Premium membership. You can save on a Google Nest device bundle by clicking on the Special Offers link on the TCL Q6 product page, then the tile that says “Save 50% on Google Nest device with TV” to pull up a list of eligible devices; the discount will automatically be applied to your cart when you add the device along with the TCL Q6.

How I rated this deal

The TCL Q65 regularly sees markdowns not only at Best Buy but also at other retailers like Amazon. With a $1,500 discount, this is an excellent value on an already budget-friendly (relatively speaking) 98-inch TV with Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos support and a dedicated gaming mode. The 50% savings grant this a 5/5 Editor’s deal rating per ZDNET’s system, and I think this is a great buy.
