TCL just launched an unbelievably cheap gaming QLED TV, with 144Hz support, plus both Dolby Vision and HDR10+

  • TCL T7 Series TV comes in in 55, 65, 75 and 85 inches
  • Dolby Vision, HDR10+, Dolby Atmos and 144Hz
  • $599 to $1399

TCL has announced the T7 Series of Google TVs, and they come with astonishingly low prices: the 55-inch model starts at just $599.99, and the 85-inch range-topper comes in at a very low $1,399.99 – and that’s list price, so just imagine what’ll happen when Black Friday deals come around…

The price particularly impressive when you look at the specs. Each TV comes with a QLED display with variable refresh rate support and up to 144Hz on all but the smallest model (which can still do 120Hz), so these could compete hard with the best gaming TVs if you’re on a budget.

TCL 7 Series: key features

The software here is Google TV, as is usual for TCL, with support for Chromecast and AirPlay 2, Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant and Apple HomeKit, and the processor is TCL’s AIPQ PRO Processor.

HDR support includes both Dolby Vision and HDR10+, and there’s support for Dolby Atmos. There are four HDMI ports including one eARC, and gamer-friendly features include VRR and ALLM (though don’t expect all four ports to support these).

Not all of the specifications have been announced yet – for example, we don’t know how bright the displays are – and we don’t know the specific on-sale date either.

But we’ve been very impressed by the TCL 6 Series TVs, which we described as good for gaming and “a fine choice for everyone”, so if you’re in the market for a mid-tier TV, the 7 Series may be worth waiting for – though we’re expect TCL Black Friday deals to heat up soon, so keep your eye on the likes of the TCL QM6K and TCL QM7K in the next couple of weeks!

The prices for each model are:

  • 55″: $599.99
  • 65″: $699.99
  • 75″: $899.99
  • 85″: $1,399.99
