2018 TCL 6 series officially for sale

Amazon and Best Buy have the sets up.
LINK /
$649 for 55" and $999 for 65" at Amazon which have the voice remote
$599 for 55" and $949 for 65" at Best Buy which has the "regular" remote
For those that don't know, this the 2018 replacement for the 2017 TCL P series which only came in 55" but was considered the bargain of the century last year because it came with a wide color gamut, and 72-zone full array local dimming for significantly cheaper than competitor sets. The new 6 series sets improve upon that with 96-zones for the 55" and 120-zones for the 65", new wider color gamut for the same price. The 65" is all new.
This is the mid-range killer to Samsung/Song/LG/Vizio sets.

That looks like a LEGIT TV. I just don't like the Roku OS but I guess you don't have to use it.

Trying to decide between the 55 and 65 for a small apartment. Thoughts?

Baby steps for them.
Remember last year they only had a 55" P series, this year the 6 series is 55" and 65".
They did have a 75" C series last year, in fact I think costco always had that tv for a really low $1499, but it had no local dimming like the P/6 series. It was weird how they marketed it as their highest end tv but wasn't as nice as the P series.

Always bigger if you can afford it. $1000 for a what's essentially mid-high end range tv is a steal.
I had a 65" in a couple apartments before moving into my home I have now. Seating distance at those places was only 9-10 feet or so, 65" at that range looks amazing. Now it's more like 15 feet away and seems tiny

Had I not received the deal of the year (LG OLED65B7a for $1197 new) I would be all over this.

Ordered it last night. Supposed to be able to pick up from BestBuy on Monday.

Nebraska Furniture, 15 minutes from my house, ran an ad at night. It was in my inbox early the next day. I went and stood outside waiting for the doors to open. I was second in line. They had 15. Limit one per customer. All were gone in less than 10 minutes.

TCL's plant to produce 75" and 85" panels for the Chinese and US market (the only ones that really buy TVs that large) goes online in 2019.

Bought the 65 inch on Amazon but it’s backordered at the moment.
Posted on 4/28/18 at 10:41 am to lynxcat
Tried to get it through Best Buy backordered to May 19th.
Amazon delivering May 11th.

Those reviews have me pumped. Seems to be as good or better than expected.
