The models in our best TVs round-up really have to impress the T3 reviews team, and that's something that the TCL QM8K definitely did when it launched last year. In our TCL QM8K review (it's known as the TCL C8K in the UK, hence the name difference), we gave the television the full 5-stars.

The TCL QM8K is a 4K, Mini-LED television set that's packed with features and now available at a very good price. You get high-quality video and audio performance, an appealing 'zero border' design, and the intuitive Google TV software running everything on board.

Everything that's good about this Mini-LED set is explained in our TCL QM8K review: we praised the "brilliant, bright pictures" and "outstanding value" of the television, and , of course, with this price reduction it's even better value for your money.

With increased brightness over the previous generation and a 'zero border' design – which really does make the viewing experience all about the main panel – the TCL QM8K is a pleasure to sit down in front of, whether you're watching movies or sports.

There's impressive high dynamic range (HDR) performance and real-time picture processing, and a total of 1,680 dimming zones that ensure frames look fluid and dynamic. Sound is decent too, developed in partnership with audio experts from Bang & Olufsen.

In terms of bang for your buck, it's going to be difficult to top the TCL QM8K at this price during the Amazon Spring Sale, and if you've been considering a living room TV upgrade for a while then this might be the perfect time to commit to a purchase.
