TCL Q6 (65Q651G)

TCL's entry QLED — quantum dot color on a basic edge-lit panel.

$399.99

Overall score 7/10

Pros

  • + TCL's most affordable QLED tier — quantum dot color without the Mini LED price premium
  • + Full Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos support at an entry price
  • + Adjustable-width stand fits a range of furniture
  • + Available across 4 sizes from 55" to 85"

Cons

  • Edge-lit backlight, not Mini LED — noticeably less contrast and more blooming than the QM-series above it
  • 60Hz native refresh with no true VRR, weaker for gaming than the QM6K
  • Peak brightness and HDMI port count not independently confirmed
  • This is the 2024 65Q651G — TCL has not released a 2025 or 2026 Q6 at 65 inches, so it is the current model by default rather than by refresh

TCL Q6 (65Q651G) review: what the specs say

TCL's entry QLED — quantum dot color on a basic edge-lit panel. At $399.99, TCL's 2024 model sits among the cheapest we cover — the TVs we compare run from $279.99 to $12,999.99. It scores 7.0/10 overall, calculated from published specifications across 8 categories rather than from a subjective impression.

Its strongest showing is Value at 8.3/10 — performance and features relative to price. The weakest is Built-in Sound at 6.2/10, which is the trade-off to weigh before buying: if that is the specification you care about most, one of the alternatives below will serve you better.

Worth knowing before you buy: edge-lit backlight, not Mini LED — noticeably less contrast and more blooming than the QM-series above it; and 60Hz native refresh with no true VRR, weaker for gaming than the QM6K. Every specification on this page comes from TCL's own documentation or a verified retail listing — where a figure is not published, the table says so rather than estimating it.
