TCL mini LED 98 in tried but Samsung 98 prevailed
TCL gave it a try the 98 in mini LED. What I found out is they have native LED Samsung with this LED q LED whatever is called blows. The TCL mini LED out the water and the TCL is a budget TV. But if you can spend the extra thousand, I'll wait until it goes on sale by the Samsung. You won't be disappointed. This TV makes sense as the 8k nothing's being broadcast and 8k or very little and it's predominantly overseas not in America. I'll just wait until 8K is more prominent. But don't get me wrong. I have LG OLED signature and it puts this TV to shame but if don't want to go is high as oled Samsung 98 is okay better than TCL. Don't buy budget TVs if if you have the option stick with the better one and there's a reason why. Oh yeah geek squad sent three guys out plus the supervisor and they mounted my TV. No issues. They were really nice and knowledgeable

Absolutely Stunning 98” Samsung TV + Exceptional I
I recently purchased the 98” Samsung TV from Best Buy, and I couldn’t be happier with my decision. The picture quality is beyond incredible — crystal clear resolution, vibrant colors, and the size makes it feel like I have a private theater in my living room. It has completely transformed my home entertainment experience. What made this purchase even more outstanding was the installation team. They were professional, courteous, and extremely knowledgeable. They handled everything with care, explained all the features, and made sure everything was set up perfectly before leaving. Their attention to detail and friendly demeanor made the whole process smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend both the TV and the installation service. If you're considering going big — this 98” Samsung is worth every penny!

98 inch Samsung
Samsung 98 inch Q80 TV. 4k I alerady own an 85 inch 8k set that looks fantastic. This increasein size really makes my room a theater. The set already plays Atmos which knocks the audio out ofvthe park. I am watching movies I have already seen as if for the first time and they look and sound great. I buy a TV about every other year and will never stray from Samsung again.
